Amazon has announced plans to invest more than $35 billion in India by 2030 as part of a major expansion strategy focused on artificial intelligence, exports, and infrastructure. The announcement comes as global tech companies increase their presence in Asia’s third-largest economy.
According to the company, Amazon will use this investment to strengthen AI capabilities, improve logistics, support small businesses, and create new job opportunities. The company said these efforts align with India’s national priorities and long-term digital growth plans.
The move follows a surge of investment from other US tech giants. Microsoft recently announced a $17.5 billion investment in India for AI and cloud infrastructure, marking its largest commitment in Asia. Google has also pledged $15 billion over the next five years to build AI data centers in the country.
Amazon has been increasing its spending in India to compete with Walmart-backed Flipkart and Reliance Industries’ retail network. The company has already invested $40 billion in India since 2010, including a $26 billion commitment made in 2023.
In its statement, Amazon said it aims to create 1 million additional jobs in India by 2030. It added that sellers using its platform have generated more than $20 billion in exports over the past decade. The company plans to boost that figure to $80 billion by 2030 through expanded support and global outreach programs.
India remains a key market for Amazon due to its fast-growing internet population and increasing digital adoption. The company believes the country will play a central role in the global expansion of its e-commerce and technology operations.
