"We plan to invest an additional Rs 20,000 crore in the next three years," Mukesh Ambani said
Reliance has invested close to Rs 45,000 crore in Bengal, industrialist Mukesh Ambani said today at the seventh Bengal Global Business Summit. "We plan to invest an additional Rs 20,000 crore in the next three years," he said, underscoring the state's upbeat economy.
The rate of growth of Bengal's GDP is 11.5 per cent, much higher than the national average, he said. As India races to become a $10 trillion economy by 2030, "Bengal alone has the potential to become a $1 trillion economy in the near future," he said.
"Countries like Korea, Singapore and Taiwan are regarded Asian tigers for their growth economies. But Bengal is now becoming so agile and ambitious that the fearless Royal Bengal Tiger will someday overtake all the Asian tigers," Mukesh Ambani added.
