Amazon said it will invest an additional $13 billion to expand its AI and cloud footprint in India through 2030. The fresh investment, announced after CEO Andy Jassy met Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi, will fund expansion of Amazon Web Services’ data center capacity in Mumbai and Hyderabad.

The move marks the company’s third major commitment in as many years: in 2023 Amazon pledged $15 billion by 2030, including $12.7 billion for AWS, and in December 2025 it announced an over $35 billion commitment. The total now stands at $48 billion, though Amazon did not detail how that sum will be deployed across its India businesses.

Long-term commitments typically cover both capital and operating expenditures rather than only new infrastructure spending. The announcement follows a wave of investments by global technology firms betting India will become a hub for the computing infrastructure needed to power artificial intelligence.
