Amazon to Invest Additional $13 Billion in India by 2030 — Update
By Kimberley Kao
Amazon plans to spend an additional $13 billion in India by 2030 to expand and support artificial-intelligence and cloud infrastructure in the country.
The planned outlay builds on the $35 billion investment across its businesses in India that was outlined in December, the U.S. tech company said Thursday.
The latest investment will go toward expanding Amazon Web Services' data-center capacity in Mumbai and Hyderabad, as well as giving startups, enterprises and government organizations access to custom AI chips, managed AI services, cloud technologies and developer tools, it said.
Amazon also plans to launch more than 20 fulfillment centers and over 100 delivery stations across India this year, it said.
"As we grow Amazon in India, our business priorities align with India's priorities of democratizing access to AI, digitizing small businesses, creating jobs, and enabling exports," Amazon Chief Executive Andy Jassy said during his visit to New Delhi, where he met Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The company has committed to supporting 3.8 million jobs in India and $80 billion in cumulative exports.
Amazon has earmarked more than $88 billion for investments in India from 2010 to 2030.
India has drawn tens of billions of dollars from major technology companies this year, underlining its appeal as an AI and cloud hub.
Large U.S. data-center firms--also known as hyperscalers--are drawn to the country as its 1.4 billion consumers are some of the most prolific users of data and AI chatbots.
In October, Google announced a $15 billion investment in data centers in southeastern India, as well as undersea-cable links. In December, Microsoft unveiled its largest-ever investment in Asia, with a $17.5 billion pledge to develop the country's cloud and AI infrastructure.
Earlier this year, India introduced a policy to attract more tech investments. The government is giving global hyperscalers that use India-based data centers for global operations long-term tax breaks.
