Amazon has announced plans to invest an additional $35 billion in India by 2030, strengthening its presence in one of its most promising global markets. The new investment will build on the company’s earlier $40 billion commitment made over the past decade, reflecting Amazon’s confidence in India’s digital growth story.
According to Amit Agarwal, SVP of Emerging Markets at Amazon, the new round of funding will focus on three strategic areas—AI-driven digital transformation, export growth, and large-scale job creation.
So far, Amazon has digitized 10 million small businesses, facilitated $20 billion in cumulative exports, and supported 2.8 million jobs (direct and indirect) by 2024. With this expansion, the company aims to create 3.8 million more employment opportunities by 2030, both directly and through seasonal roles across its ecosystem.
The upcoming investment will also strengthen logistics infrastructure, e-commerce operations, and cloud services while enabling small businesses to adopt AI-powered tools for productivity and growth.
Agarwal emphasized that India remains one of Amazon’s biggest long-term opportunities, and the company is just getting started in scaling its impact across the economy.
