PepsiCo India, a major food and beverage company, will have invested up to Rs 5,700 crore in India by 2030 to increase the production capacity of its foods division, according to a top company executive.
The majority of the proposed investment, according to Jagrut Kotecha, CEO of PepsiCo India and South Asia, will go into three production plants located in Madhya Pradesh, Assam, and Tamil Nadu.
According to Kotecha, we have made investments of about Rs 5,700 crore between 2025 and 2030. He said that the majority of the investment will be used for a concentrates facility in Madhya Pradesh, as well as snack factories in Tamil Nadu and Assam.
“Some of this is going live in the next few months, like the concentrates plant in Madhya Pradesh and the Northeast plant in Assam,” he stated.
He also stated that the company would be able to increase its presence in the snack industry across South India as a result of a recent land acquisition in Tamil Nadu.
Kotecha says that India continues to be a significant growth market for PepsiCo due to rising incomes and a secure investment climate.
He mentioned that we have seen robust double-digit growth for the second year running on the growth front.
According to PepsiCo India and South Asia CFO Savitha Balachandran, the company’s foods business experienced strong expansion of about 11% in 2025, while the drinks industry faced headwinds due to weather-related softness and growing competition.
Nevertheless, she claimed that both areas had a solid performance and that the company had entered 2026 with a robust balance sheet and continuous momentum, including more than Rs 1,600 crore in cash.
The business stated that investment will continue to be a primary focus area, along with fiscal discipline to support long-term expansion.
