Amazon adds $13 billion to India AI pledge, pushing cumulative commitments to $48 billion
Amazon's third major India commitment in three years — $13 billion through 2030 for AWS capacity in Mumbai and Hyderabad — puts its cumulative pledge at $48 billion, well ahead of Microsoft's $17.5 billion by 2029 and Google's $15 billion. These are pledges, not deployed capital, but the scale and repetition confirm that India is now a primary infrastructure battleground for every major hyperscaler, with Modi-era tax exemptions on foreign cloud workloads accelerating the race.
