Amazon has announced plans to invest $48 billion in India between 2026 and 2030 following CEO Andy Jassy's meeting with PM Modi. This investment will increase the AWS data center capacity in Mumbai and Hyderabad. With this investment, startups, enterprises, and governments will be able to access customized AI chips, AI managed services, secure cloud computing solutions, and developer tools.
Amazon CEO Andy Jassy met Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi on Thursday (June 25, 2026) in New Delhi. Jassy announced plans to invest an additional $13 billion to expand AI and cloud infrastructure in the country by 2030. This brings Amazon's total planned investment in expanding and supporting AI and cloud infrastructure to over $21 billion between 2026 and 2030.
Andy Jassy said, “We came to India over a decade ago and have since been serving customers, sellers, developers, start-ups, 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 continue to align with India’s priorities of democratizing access to AI, digitizing small businesses, creating jobs, and enabling exports.”
The following are the key takeaways from the meeting between Andy Jassy and PM Modi.
Amazon India has launched ‘Sammaan’, a comprehensive welfare program for thousands of delivery associates in its logistics network. Initiatives include scholarships to educate associates' children. It will provide them access to government benefits and financial inclusion programs, comprehensive insurance coverage, on-road safety measures, and more. As part of the program, Amazon will also expand its Ashray rest centers to 250 locations this year, open to delivery associates across the industry.

Jassy thanked Prime Minister Modi for his leadership and highlighted the growing importance of India, where Amazon operates several businesses, including e-commerce, AI, cloud, and entertainment.
“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. 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.
This sort of investment from Amazon would accelerate the digital revolution in India by improving its technological infrastructure, cloud computing, logistics, and innovation ecosystem. This kind of investment is a clear sign that the rest of the world sees India as a digital powerhouse of the future.
