What is the story about?
Amazon will invest $48 billion in India between 2026 and 2030, including an additional $13 billion to expand its artificial intelligence (AI) and cloud infrastructure, CEO Andy Jassy announced after meeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi on Thursday, June 25.
The latest commitment comes within six months of Amazon announcing $35 billion in fresh investments in India. With the new pledge, Amazon's cumulative investments in the country between 2010 and 2030 will exceed $88 billion.
The additional AI and cloud investment will take Amazon's total planned spending on AI and cloud infrastructure in India to more than $21 billion between 2026 and 2030.

The company said the investment will expand Amazon Web Services (AWS) data centre capacity in Mumbai and Hyderabad, providing startups, enterprises and government organisations access to AI chips, managed AI services, cloud technologies and developer tools.
"We are investing over $48 billion in the coming five years to meet the strong demand across our business in India and to help the country achieve these priorities," Jassy said.
"We are inspired by Prime Minister Modi's vision of a Viksit and Atmanirbhar Bharat, and we are committed to being a long-term partner in India's growth story," he added.
AI, jobs and exports
Amazon said it will continue to focus on AI-led digitisation, exports and job creation in line with government priorities.
By 2030, the company has pledged to support more than 3.8 million jobs, enable $80 billion in cumulative ecommerce exports, bring AI capabilities to 15 million small businesses, and provide AI education to 4 million government school students.
Jassy said Amazon has already digitised 12 million small businesses, enabled more than $20 billion in cumulative ecommerce exports, supported 2.8 million jobs, and trained over 10 million Indians in cloud skills since entering the country.
Expanding logistics network
Alongside its technology investments, Amazon said it will continue expanding its operations network across India. The company plans to launch more than 20 new fulfilment centres and over 100 last-mile delivery stations this year to strengthen its e-commerce and quick-commerce businesses, particularly in tier-3 and tier-4 cities.
Amazon also launched 'Sammaan', a welfare programme for delivery associates that will provide scholarships for associates' children, facilitate access to government welfare and financial inclusion schemes, expand insurance coverage and road safety measures, and increase the number of Ashray rest centres to 250 this year.

Really
enjoyed my meeting with Prime Minister @narendramodi about what’s ahead for Amazon in India.
We’ve been serving customers, sellers, developers, startups, and enterprises in India for more than a decade and just getting started.
