The Adani Group announced the groundbreaking of a new cement grinding unit in Guna, Madhya Pradesh, with an investment of INR 1,060 crore. The project aims to create about 1,500 jobs and align with PM Gati-Shakti through enhanced infrastructure, logistics, and industrial facilities in the state.

The Adani Group on Saturday announced the groundbreaking of its new cement grinding unit in Guna, Madhya Pradesh, marking another major industrial investment in the state. The project, being developed by Adani Cement, will involve an investment of more than ₹1,060 crore and is expected to create around 1,500 direct and indirect jobs.

Speaking at the Bhoomi Pujan ceremony, Pranav Adani said the project represents a significant step toward accelerating industrial growth and employment generation in Madhya Pradesh. He stated that the state has emerged as a strong investment destination under the leadership of Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav, driven by improvements in infrastructure, logistics, and industrial facilities under the PM Gati-Shakti vision. The event was attended by Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia, Madhya Pradesh ministers, senior government officials, and industry representatives.

Pranav Adani highlighted that the Adani Group is currently active in sectors such as energy, infrastructure, logistics, and green technology, with a focus on contributing to India’s long-term development. He referred to the Group’s earlier commitment of ₹1.1 lakh crore investment in Madhya Pradesh announced during the Global Investors Summit in Bhopal. The investment spans sectors including hydro pumped storage, cement, mining, smart meters, and thermal energy.

According to the company, these investments are expected to generate employment opportunities for nearly 1.2 lakh people by 2030.

The Guna cement grinding unit will be developed in two phases with a total annual production capacity of 40 lakh metric tonnes. Phase One is targeted for commissioning by 2028. The company said the project will focus on maintaining speed, quality, and environmental sustainability during execution.

Pranav Adani also said the project would contribute more than ₹6,000 crore to the state treasury over time while boosting local economic activity through transportation, supply chains, small businesses, and service industries in the surrounding region.

The Adani Group already has a significant presence in Madhya Pradesh through investments in the Ametha and Kymor plants in Katni district. Adani Power currently supplies 1,200 MW electricity to the state, while preparations are underway for an additional 5,600 MW power generation capacity. The company has also commissioned wind energy projects in Lahori, Dhar, Ratlam, and Ujjain, and plans to establish another cement plant in Ujjain in the near future.

Calling the project an investment in the future of Madhya Pradesh and its youth, Pranav Adani said the Adani Group would continue partnering in the state’s industrial and economic growth journey.
