Let me begin with a few numbers that capture the scale of what we are building. In FY25-26, we made a record capital investment of more than Rs 1.5 lakh crore in hard infrastructure, representing over 30% of India's total new private sector capital expenditure of the year. This is more than a financial number; it is a statement of belief and commitment to nation building, powering India's next chapter through infrastructure investment. I will shift to tangible examples of what we delivered over the past year. At Adani Energy Solutions, our transmission order book rose to Rs 72,000 crore, and we secured major projects including the Kawada Solar Park HVDC, reinforcing our position as India's only private sector player with proven HVDC capability. At Adani Power, we are implementing India's largest ever private sector power CAPEX program of over Rs 2 lakh crore, targeting 45 gigawatt of capacity over the next 5 years. We are also partnering with the government of Bhutan's Druk Green Power Corporation to jointly develop 5,000 megawatts of hydro projects in Bhutan. Our entry into nuclear energy through Adani Atomic Energy targets 10 gigawatt by 2035 to serve growing national demand for clean power. At Adani Total Gas, we crossed over 1.1 million piped natural gas home connections and are ramping up PNG projects. Adani Ports handled over 500 million tons of cargo in financial year 2025-26, setting a pathway to 1 billion tons by 2030. Our integrated network of ports, SEZs, and logistics lowers the cost of India's trade, with Vizinjam port delivering a record first year by crossing 1 million TEUs, the fastest pace by any Indian port. In airports, we achieved milestones with the opening of Navi Mumbai International Airport and the new terminal at Guwahati airports, both inaugurated by the Prime Minister and listed among the world's seven most beautiful airports. Navi Mumbai Airport, with 90 million passenger capacity, was built in a world record time of just over four years. In digital infrastructure, our data center business is building a 3 GW platform by 2030, with a binding MOU with Google in Visakhapatnam, reflecting confidence from global technology leaders. Across mining services, four new MDO agreements cover capacity to 145 million tons per annum, consolidating our position as India's largest private miner. Adani Cement contributed to iconic national projects and expanded capacity to 110 million ton per annum. In defense and aerospace, partnerships with Alionardo and Embraer are building an integrated manufacturing ecosystem, including a national aerospace platform. During Operation Sindhu, our drones, anti-drone systems, missiles, and ammunitions supported our armed forces when it mattered most.
