Amazon plans to invest $12.7 billion into its cloud business in India by 2030, the e-commerce group said.

The move is part of a cunning plan to scale up the AWS infrastructure in the important overseas market at a time when it has pared back several other services in the region.

The US giant, which invested $3.7 billion in AWS infra in India and maintains two data centre regions in the South Asian market, said its spending will support 131,700 full-time jobs across roles such as engineering, telecommunications, and construction. 

Amazon said it would invest $4.4 billion in AWS in the South Asian economy.
