Driving India: Adani Group Contributes More Than 9% To India's Infrastructure GDP

The Adani Group has emerged as a significant contributor to India's economic growth, accounting for more than 9% of the country's infrastructure GDP for the fiscal year 2024.

This figure, calculated as Gross Value Added at current prices, includes contributions from sectors such as electricity, gas and water; trade; hotels; transport and communication; and mining and quarrying.

The Adani Group's substantial investments in infrastructure have played a pivotal role in this achievement. The group's capital expenditure in Nifty50 Capex has shown strong growth over the years. In 2024, the Adani Portfolio's Capex accounted for 14% of Nifty50 Capex, highlighting its significant impact on the nation's infrastructure development.

The group's investments span both public sector undertakings (PSUs) and private sector projects. In 2024, the Adani Portfolio's Capex in Nifty50 PSU was 43%, while its Capex in Nifty50 private stood at 22%.

The Adani Group's Free Funds from Operations model has been a driving force behind its ambitious investment plans. For the fiscal year 2025, the group reported an FFO of $8 billion, which is expected to support approximately $80 billion of the committed $100 billion investment plan over the next decade.

This non-dilutive growth strategy ensures that the group can continue to invest heavily in infrastructure without compromising its financial stability. The FFO model provides a robust foundation for future investments, enabling the Adani Group to maintain its leadership position in India's infrastructure sector.

The group's investment plan includes a wide range of projects aimed at enhancing the country's capabilities. These projects are expected to generate significant economic benefits, further solidifying the Adani Group's role as a key player in driving India's growth.
