Amazon has announced a major expansion of its AI and cloud infrastructure investments in India. The e-commerce and technology giant plans to invest $13 billion in the country by the year 2030, on top of the $35 billion it pledged last year. This new funding will focus specifically on growing its artificial intelligence and cloud computing infrastructure. Together, these major initiatives bring Amazon’s total planned investment in India to a staggering $48 billion over the coming years.
The official announcement followed a high-profile meeting in New Delhi between Amazon Chief Executive Officer Andy Jassy and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. After their successful meeting, Jassy shared on the social media platform X that his company is deeply committed to supporting India’s digital growth. He confirmed that the total $48 billion budget includes more than $21 billion dedicated strictly to cloud systems and artificial intelligence.
According to an official company statement, the newly announced $13 billion will directly support data centres and infrastructure across two major technology hubs: Mumbai and Hyderabad. This move highlights a broader trend among major United States tech companies, which are pouring billions of dollars into India.
