Amazon has announced plans to invest $48 billion in India by 2030. The commitment adds a fresh $13 billion for AI and cloud infrastructure. It takes the company’s total India investment to $48 billion between 2026 and 2030.
The new funding builds on an earlier pledge. Amazon announced a $35 billion India investment across its businesses in 2025. The additional $13 billion will expand AWS data center capacity. That growth centers on Mumbai and Hyderabad.
The cloud expansion targets startups, enterprises, and government bodies. It gives them access to custom AI chips and managed AI services. It also offers secure cloud technologies and developer tools. The goal is faster innovation and wider scale for Indian firms.
Amazon CEO Andy Jassy announced the plan after a high-profile meeting. He met Prime Minister Narendra Modi on June 25 in New Delhi. Jassy highlighted India’s growing importance to Amazon. He cited strong growth across ecommerce, AI, and cloud businesses. He said:
As we grow Amazon in India, our business priorities align with India’s priorities of democratizing access to AI, digitizing small businesses, creating jobs, and enabling exports, and we are investing over $48 billion in the coming five years to meet the strong demand across our business in India and to help India achieve these priorities. We are inspired by Prime Minister Modi’s vision of a Viksit and Atmanirbhar Bharat, we are committed to being a long-term partner in India’s growth story.
Jassy tied the investment to India’s national priorities. These include democratizing AI access and digitizing small businesses. He also pointed to job creation and enabling exports. He called Amazon a long-term partner in India’s growth story.
The plan extends beyond AI and cloud, too. Amazon will strengthen its ecommerce and quick commerce operations. It plans over 20 new fulfillment centers this year. It will also add more than 100 last-mile delivery stations. The focus includes faster delivery to tier 3 and 4 cities.
Amazon’s cumulative India investment now exceeds $88 billion since 2010. The company says it has digitized 12 million small businesses. It has also supported 2.8 million jobs across the country. Through 2030, Amazon targets AI-led digitization and export growth. It aims to support 3.8 million jobs and $80 billion in cumulative exports.
The contrast with Pakistan is stark, too. Amazon still does not operate a full local marketplace in Pakistan. Pakistani sellers gained the ability to list on Amazon’s global platform only in 2021. But the country has no dedicated Amazon.pk store, no local fulfillment centers, and no AWS data center region. As Amazon pours billions into India next door, Pakistan remains outside its direct investment map.
