Amazon on Thursday said it would invest an additional $13 billion to expand its AI and cloud footprint in India through 2030.

The fresh investment, announced after Amazon CEO Andy Jassy met India s Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi, will fund the expansion of Amazon Web Services data center capacity in Mumbai and Hyderabad.

The announcement marks Amazon s third major commitment for India in as many years.

In 2023, following a meeting between Jassy and Modi, the company said it would invest $15 billion by 2030, including $12.

7 billion for Amazon Web Services.

It followed that with an over $35 billion commitment in December 2025.

The company s investment commitments in the country now total $48 billion.

Amazon did not detail how the total $48 billion would be deployed across its India businesses.

Long-term commitments by technology companies usually include both capital and operating expenditures, rather than only new infrastructure spending.

Amazon s announcement follows a wave of investments by global technology companies that are betting that India will become a major hub for the computing infrastructure needed to power artificial intelligence products.

Microsoft said in December it would invest $17.

5 billion in India by 2029, and Google said in October it would spend $15 billion to build an AI hub and data center infrastructure in the country.

India has also attracted billions of dollars in commitments for data center projects from investors including Australia s AirTrunk , Canada Pension Plan Investment Board s CPP Investments , and domestic conglomerates Reliance Industries and Adani Group.

New Delhi has sought to attract more investment through policy incentives, including tax exemptions for foreign cloud providers on services sold overseas if those workloads are run from Indian data centers.

Amazon is also investing in its domestic retail and logistics network.

The company plans to open more than 20 fulfillment centers, and over 100 last-mile delivery stations this year, and this week it detailed plans to expand its quick-commerce service, Amazon Now, to more than 300 cities and towns in the country.

The expansion comes as Amazon seeks to gain ground in India s crowded quick commerce market, where it competes with Eternal-owned Blinkit, Swiggy s Instamart, Zepto, and Walmart-owned Flipkart.

Earlier this week, Flipkart said it plans to open 1,500 micro-fulfillment centers across the country by the end of 2026.
