Mon, 29th Jun 2026 (Today)
Amazon plans to invest more than USD $48 billion across its businesses in India between 2026 and 2030, with new funding directed towards artificial intelligence, cloud infrastructure, eCommerce operations and logistics.
The investment includes an additional USD $13 billion for AI and cloud infrastructure, building on the USD $35 billion commitment announced in 2025. Amazon said the expanded investment will increase AWS data centre capacity in Mumbai and Hyderabad while supporting growth across its eCommerce, cloud, entertainment and digital services businesses.
Cloud expansion
The additional investment will expand AWS infrastructure in India to support startups, enterprises and government organisations. The expansion will increase access to custom AI chips, managed AI services, cloud technologies and software development tools.
"For over a decade, we have been serving customers, sellers, developers, startups, and enterprises through our different businesses. The response has been tremendous, with strong growth especially across our eCommerce, AI, and cloud businesses.
"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," said Andy Jassy, Chief Executive Officer, Amazon.
The company said the investment aligns with its plans to support AI adoption, business digitisation and cloud computing demand across India.
Network growth
Amazon also plans to expand the infrastructure supporting its eCommerce and quick commerce operations.
The company intends to open more than 20 new fulfilment centres and more than 100 last-mile delivery stations across India during the year. The expansion is expected to improve delivery coverage, including in tier 3 and tier 4 cities.
Amazon said its logistics network already serves customers across every postal code in the country. The additional facilities will increase storage, fulfilment and delivery capacity as eCommerce demand grows.
The company is also continuing investment in employee and delivery associate programmes. Part of a previously announced USD $300 million investment in operations and workforce wellbeing will support its Sammaan programme.
The programme includes education scholarships for delivery associates' children, broader access to government benefit schemes and financial inclusion programmes, insurance coverage and road safety initiatives.
Economic targets
Amazon said its cumulative investment in India between 2010 and 2030 will exceed USD $88 billion following the latest commitment.
Since entering the Indian market, the company said it has digitised 12 million small businesses, enabled more than USD $20 billion in cumulative eCommerce exports and supported 2.8 million jobs.
Amazon has also provided cloud skills training to more than 10 million people across India.
Looking ahead to 2030, the company has set targets to support 3.8 million jobs, enable USD $80 billion in cumulative exports and extend AI-related benefits to 15 million small businesses.
It also plans to provide AI education to 4 million government school students as part of its broader skills development efforts.
The investment reflects Amazon's continued expansion across cloud computing, AI infrastructure, eCommerce operations and workforce development in one of its largest international markets.
