Andy Jassy met Narendra Modi in New Delhi on Wednesday and announced that Amazon will invest $48 billion in India between 2026 and 2030, reinforcing the company’s long-term commitment to one of its fastest-growing markets.
The investment includes an additional $13 billion for artificial intelligence and cloud infrastructure, raising Amazon’s total planned investment in AI and cloud services in India to more than $21 billion by 2030. The funding will expand Amazon Web Services (AWS) data centre capacity in Mumbai and Hyderabad, providing startups, businesses and government agencies with greater access to AI tools, cloud computing and custom AI chips.
Amazon said its cumulative investment in India between 2010 and 2030 will exceed $88 billion, making it one of the country’s largest foreign investors and among the biggest global investors in AI and cloud infrastructure.
Alongside its technology expansion, the company plans to strengthen its logistics network by opening more than 20 new fulfilment centres and over 100 last-mile delivery stations across India this year, improving delivery speeds in both major cities and smaller Tier-3 and Tier-4 markets.
Amazon also launched a new welfare initiative called Sammaan, aimed at supporting delivery associates through scholarships for their children, expanded insurance coverage, access to government benefit programs, financial inclusion services, enhanced road safety measures and the expansion of its Ashray rest centres to 250 locations this year.
The company said it has already digitised 12 million small businesses in India, enabled more than $20 billion in cumulative e-commerce exports, supported 2.8 million jobs and trained over 10 million Indians in cloud skills.
By 2030, Amazon aims to support 3.8 million jobs, facilitate $80 billion in cumulative e-commerce exports, help 15 million small businesses adopt AI technologies and provide AI education to four million government school students.
Jassy said Amazon’s business priorities remain aligned with India’s goals of expanding artificial intelligence, digitising small businesses, creating employment and boosting exports, adding that the company intends to remain a long-term partner in India’s economic growth.
