Reliance to Invest ₹7 Lakh Crore in Gujarat, Aims to Build India’s Largest AI Data Centre

Mukesh Ambani, chairman of Reliance Industries (RIL), has announced an investment plan of ₹7 lakh crore in Gujarat over the next five years, effectively doubling the earlier commitment of ₹3.5 lakh crore made since 2021.

During the Vibrant Gujarat Regional Conferences for the Kutch and Saurashtra area on January 11, Ambani stated that the company intends to expand the forthcoming AI data centre in Jamnagar to establish an AI language platform designed to enhance the efficiency and productivity of AI services, as per reports.

Ambani outlined five solid commitments, stating that RIL is constructing the largest AI-ready data centre in Jamnagar.

“In Jamnagar, we are building India’s largest AI-ready data centre with a single goal: affordable AI for every Indian. Jio will launch a people-first intelligence platform built in India for India and the world, enabling every citizen, starting from Gujarat, to access AI services in their own language on their own device every day, making them more efficient and productive,” Ambani reportedly said.

Ambani added that RIL has invested over ₹3.5 lakh crore in Gujarat over the last five years. The company now plans to invest up to ₹7 lakh crore in the next five-year period.

“Jio will launch a people-first intelligence platform built in India for India and the world, enabling every citizen, starting from Gujarat, to access AI services in their own language on their own device every day, making them more efficient and productive,” he said.

It was anticipated that more than 1,500 MoUs would be finalised at the two-day event, with over 110 international buyers from 16 countries, including the US and several European nations.
