In his discussion, he highlighted strategic initiatives aimed at enhancing Adani Solar's market presence and driving growth in the renewable energy sector.

Adani Solar aimed to establish a 10-gigawatt (GW) manufacturing setup. Can you provide an update on the status of this initiative?

Our vision to achieve a fully integrated 10-GW capacity remains on track, covering everything—from polysilicon to finished modules. We've made great progress, particularly with our cell and module lines. We expect the module line to be operational by the end of 2025, followed by the cell line in mid-2026. We are also expanding into ingot, wafer, and polysilicon production, aiming to complete these by late 2027 or early 2028. Moreover, we're developing a fully integrated ecosystem, including ancillary units for solar glass, aluminum frames, encapsulants, and back sheets. All of this will be housed in the same location—a feat not seen anywhere else in the world.

How is Adani Solar positioning itself in the expanding solar industry?
