Amazon announced plans to invest more than $35 billion in India by 2030 to expand its operations by boosting artificial intelligence capabilities and increasing exports, as global tech giants continue to deepen their presence in Asia’s third-largest economy.
This year has seen major U.S. technology companies pour billions into India, underscoring the country’s rise as a strategic hub for cloud, AI, and deep-tech growth.

Microsoft pledged $17.5 billion on Tuesday for AI and cloud infrastructure in India by 2030—its largest investment in Asia—while Google committed $15 billion over the next five years to build AI data centers.

Amazon said its new investments are “strategically aligned with India’s national priorities and will focus on expanding AI capabilities, enhancing logistics infrastructure, supporting small business growth and creating jobs.”

The company continues to increase spending in India to compete with Walmart-backed Flipkart and the retail arm of Mukesh Ambani's Reliance Industries. Amazon has invested $40 billion since 2010, including its $26 billion investment announced in 2023.

Amazon also stated it plans to create 1 million additional job opportunities in India by 2030. The firm said it has generated more than $20 billion in cumulative exports for Indian sellers over the past decade and aims to raise that figure to $80 billion by 2030.

India, the world’s most populous nation, remains a critical market for Amazon due to its rapidly expanding internet user base.
