Amazon CEO Andy Jassy met Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi and reaffirmed Amazon’s long-term commitment to India. The company announced an additional $13 billion investment to expand AI and cloud infrastructure by 2030, taking its total planned AI and cloud investment in India to over $21 billion between 2026 and 2030.
Amazon said the investment will expand AWS data center capacity in Mumbai and Hyderabad, giving startups, businesses and government organizations access to advanced AI chips, cloud services, AI tools and secure infrastructure. The company said this will help customers build, scale and deploy AI applications faster.
Amazon’s total planned investment in India from 2010 to 2030 now stands at over $88 billion. Between 2026 and 2030, the company plans to invest $48 billion across its businesses, including ecommerce, AI, cloud and logistics, supporting the government’s focus on digital growth, exports and job creation.
The company will also strengthen its operations network by opening more than 20 new fulfillment centers and over 100 last-mile delivery stations this year. These investments aim to improve delivery speeds across India, especially in Tier-3 and Tier-4 cities.
Amazon also launched ‘Sammaan’, a welfare program for delivery associates. The initiative includes scholarships for associates’ children, access to government welfare and financial inclusion schemes, insurance coverage, road safety measures and the expansion of Ashray rest centers to 250 locations this year.
Since entering India, Amazon has helped digitize 12 million small businesses, enabled over $20 billion in ecommerce exports, supported 2.8 million jobs and trained over 10 million people in cloud skills. By 2030, the company aims to support 3.8 million jobs, generate $80 billion in cumulative ecommerce exports, bring AI benefits to 15 million small businesses and provide AI education to 4 million government school students.
