Amazon has plans to invest more than $35 billion in India through 2030, marking one of the company’s largest commitments to the market to date. The announcement was made at the Amazon Smbhav Summit 2025 in New Delhi, where new data outlined Amazon’s current footprint and future expansion strategy across the country.
The company has already invested nearly $40 billion in India, contributing to the digitisation of more than 12 million small businesses, enabling $20 billion in cumulative e-commerce exports, and supporting roughly 2.8 million jobs across technology, logistics, operations, and seasonal work as of 2024. The figures come from an Economic Impact Report by Keystone Strategy.
The new $35 billion commitment will extend across Amazon’s retail, logistics, cloud, and digital services businesses, with a focus on expanding AI applications, building infrastructure, and increasing India-made exports. The company expects its operations to support 3.8 million jobs by 2030 as it continues to scale fulfillment and delivery networks that feed multiple parallel industries such as packaging, manufacturing, and transportation.
A key component of Amazon’s plan is a broad push to make AI tools widely accessible. The company aims to bring AI capabilities to 15 million small businesses, building on tools already in use on Amazon.in. It also plans to expand AI-based shopping features and deliver AI learning programs to 4 million government school students through curriculum partnerships, career exploration initiatives, and teacher training aligned with India’s National Education Policy.
Executives say the latest investment signals Amazon’s intention to deepen its long-term presence in India while aligning growth with national priorities around digital transformation, export expansion, and skills development. With infrastructure upgrades underway and new AI-driven programs in progress, the company is positioning India as both a key consumer market and a critical node in its global operations.
“We are humbled to have been a part of India’s digital transformation journey over the past 15 years, with Amazon’s growth in India perfectly aligned with the vision of Atmanirbhar and Viksit Bharat, says Amit Agarwal, Senior VP Emerging Markets, Amazon. We have invested at scale in growing the physical and digital infrastructure for small businesses in India, creating millions of jobs, and making Made-in-India global.”
