The Adani Group has announced a large investment plan worth US$66 billion for Maharashtra at the 56th World Economic Forum annual meeting in Davos. The proposed investment is spread across key sectors such as aviation, clean energy, urban infrastructure, digital platforms, and advanced manufacturing.
The plan aligns closely with Maharashtra’s infrastructure-led growth strategy and is expected to be rolled out over the next seven to ten years.
A major part of the investment is centred on large-scale urban redevelopment and next-generation infrastructure. One of the most significant proposals is the redevelopment of Dharavi. The project aims to transform Asia’s largest informal settlement into a planned, modern, and economically active district. The focus is on improving living conditions while also creating commercial and employment opportunities.
Navi Mumbai plays a central role in the group’s plans. The recently inaugurated Navi Mumbai International Airport is expected to act as a strong growth driver for the Mumbai metropolitan region. As one of India’s largest greenfield airports, it is set to increase aviation capacity and support the growth of logistics, hospitality, and commercial real estate in the region. The wider area around the airport is also being positioned as a future business and infrastructure hub.
The investment plan includes several large energy and digital infrastructure projects. These include green and integrated data centre parks with a total planned capacity of 3,000 MW. In addition, the group has proposed coal gasification facilities and pumped-storage hydropower projects with a combined capacity of 8,700 MW, supporting energy security and cleaner transition goals.
Another key element is the proposal to set up semiconductor and display fabrication units. These projects support the government’s push to encourage private sector participation in advanced manufacturing, especially under evolving policy frameworks. Such initiatives are expected to strengthen India’s position in high-value manufacturing and technology supply chains.
