Amazon CEO Andy Jassy, who is on a visit to India, announced the ecommerce giant’s plans to invest an additional $13 Bn in India to scale AI and cloud infrastructure by 2030.
This investment is in addition to the $35 Bn committed by the company for India, taking the total commitment size to $48 Bn. Overall, the company plans to invest $21 Bn in AI and cloud infrastructure in India between 2026 and 2030.
The funds would enable the company to expand AWS data centre capacity in Mumbai and Hyderabad, giving startups, enterprises and government organisations access to custom AI chips, managed AI services, cloud technologies and developer tools.
Beyond AI, the ecommerce giant is planning to launch 20 new fulfilment centres and over 100 new last mile delivery stations within 2026. This expansion would particularly be targeted towards strengthening its presence in the Tier III & IV markets.
“As we grow Amazon in India, our business priorities continue to align with India’s priorities of democratising access to AI, digitising small businesses, creating jobs, and enabling exports. We are investing over $48 Bn in the coming five years to meet the strong demand across our business in India and to help the country achieve these priorities,” Jassy, who also met Prime Minister Narendra Modi today, said.
