India is set to become a $30 trillion economy by 2050 -- a nearly 10-fold jump from its current size -- driven by rising consumption and social and economic reforms, according to Asia’s richest man Gautam Adani.

The nation’s gross domestic product may start expanding by $1 trillion every 12 to 18 months within the next decade, increasing its attraction as an investment destination, the billionaire said at a conference in Mumbai. India’s share of global GDP is likely to exceed 20% by 2050, he said.
