Amazon expands planned investment in India to $48B by 2030

India
Amazon is making a major financial commitment to Indian operations.

Amazon is adding $13 billion to its already aggressive monetary allocation for cloud and artificial intelligence in India.

The online giant is adding that $13 billion to a pledge to invest more than $35 billion into its Indian operations through 2030 that it made in December 2025, building on nearly $40 billion it had already invested in the country up to that point and creating a total new investment of $48 billion between 2026-2030.

The $35 billion built on an initial May 2023 announcement that Amazon would commit $12.7 billion to expand its cloud infrastructure in India by 2030. At that time, the company also debuted its Amazon Now 15-minute ultrafast delivery service in India and is expanding its use of AI-based refrigeration monitoring there.

The additional $13 billion will expand Amazon Web Services (AWS) data center capacity in Mumbai and Hyderabad.

In addition to expanding AI and cloud infrastructure, Amazon will continue investing in the operations network supporting its e-commerce and fast delivery business in India. The company plans to launch more than 20 new fulfillment centers and over 100 new last-mile delivery stations in India during 2026, with the goal of bringing faster deliveries to customers nationwide, especially in tier 3 and 4 cities.

Through 2030, the company says it will focus its efforts in India on AI-led digitization, export growth, and job creation. The company has committed to supporting 3.8 million jobs, $80 billion in cumulative exports, enabling AI benefits for 15 million small businesses, and AI education for 4 million government school students. Amazon is already the largest foreign investor in India, the largest enabler of ecommerce exports, and one of the biggest of job creators in the country.

“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,” Amazon CEO Andy Jassy said in a corporate blog post.

According to Amazon, its cumulative investments in India from 2010-2030 now stand at more than $88 billion. Since launching in the country, Amazon says it has supported 2.8 million jobs and trained more than 10 million Indians on cloud skills.
