Acharya Balkrishna, CEO of Patanjali, announced at the Madhya Pradesh Global Investors Summit (GIS) 2025 that the company plans to invest Rs 5,000 crore in various sectors, including herbal medicine, Ayurveda, food processing, and balanced nutrition. The investment will be made in various projects, including solar energy and IT manufacturing, with some projects already finalized in Rewa. Patanjali has also signed an MoU and made necessary preparations, including acquiring land and securing required approvals.
The company plans to expand its existing operations in Pithampura, which is already running multiple large-scale units. Madhya Pradesh is a key hub for soybean production, processing nearly five lakh tons of soybeans annually, along with over one lakh tons of wheat. The state’s strong agricultural base and pro-business environment make it an attractive destination for large-scale investments.
Patanjali’s investment is expected to boost employment, strengthen local industries, and enhance self-reliance in food processing and Ayurveda-based healthcare. The company’s interest in renewable energy and IT manufacturing highlights its vision for sustainable and technologically driven expansion. Madhya Pradesh’s industrial growth is supported by its ease of doing business, infrastructure development, and government initiatives to promote industrial growth.
Overall, Patanjali’s investment is a significant move that will benefit the local economy and create new opportunities for growth. The company’s commitment to expand its presence in Madhya Pradesh, with a significant investment of Rs 5,000 crore, is a major boost for the state’s industrial growth and economic development.
