Amazon has announced a massive $48 billion investment plan for India through 2030, reaffirming its long-term commitment to one of its fastest-growing markets. The announcement was made by Amazon CEO Andy Jassy after meeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi.
The new commitment includes an additional $13 billion for expanding artificial intelligence (AI) and cloud infrastructure, taking Amazon’s planned investment in India between 2026 and 2030 to $48 billion. The latest funding builds on the $35 billion investment plan the company announced last year. Overall, Amazon’s cumulative investments in India from 2010 to 2030 are expected to cross $88 billion.
A significant portion of the fresh investment will be used to strengthen Amazon Web Services (AWS) by expanding data centre capacity in Mumbai and Hyderabad. The company said the move will help startups, businesses and government organisations access advanced AI tools, cloud technologies and computing infrastructure to accelerate innovation.
Amazon is also stepping up its e-commerce and logistics network. This year, it plans to open more than 20 new fulfilment centres and over 100 delivery stations, with a stronger focus on improving services in smaller cities and expanding faster delivery options. The company is simultaneously scaling up its quick-commerce business as demand for rapid deliveries continues to grow across urban India.
Speaking about India’s growth story, Jassy said Amazon’s priorities closely align with the country’s focus on AI adoption, digital transformation, job creation and support for small businesses. He described India as an increasingly important global hub for cloud computing and AI, citing strong demand for digital infrastructure.
Amazon said its long-term plans also include supporting 3.8 million jobs, enabling $80 billion in cumulative exports, helping millions of small businesses adopt AI technologies and expanding digital skills initiatives.
