The Adani Group, led by billionaire Gautam Adani, is set to make a significant investment of up to $5 billion in Google's artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure. This investment targets data centers currently under development in the southern regions of India, as reported by Bloomberg on Friday, November 28, 2025, citing Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Jugeshinder Singh. This move underscores a growing trend of substantial investments flowing into India's burgeoning data center industry.

While the specific details of Adani Group's investment are still being finalized, this development follows a prior announcement where Adani Enterprise, through its joint venture AdaniConneX Pvt. Ltd, and Google's parent company, Alphabet, revealed plans to establish India's largest AI data center campus in Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh.

The broader Indian data center market is experiencing rapid expansion, with estimates from CBRE Group projecting its value to exceed $100 billion by the close of 2027. This growth trajectory aligns with the increased demand for digital infrastructure across the country.

The partnership between Google and Adani Enterprises, announced on October 14, 2025, involves a substantial $15 billion AI hub in Visakhapatnam. Earlier reports from Mint indicated that Google's upcoming data center in Visakhapatnam is slated to be the largest outside the United States. This 1 GW data center campus will integrate advanced AI infrastructure, new large-scale energy sources, and an expanded fibre-optic network to support its operations.

According to a company announcement, this initiative is expected to generate significant economic and societal opportunities for both India and the United States, simultaneously pioneering a generational shift in AI capabilities. Google's overarching plan involves investing $15 billion over five years, from 2026 to 2030, a strategy that aligns with the Indian central government's vision of 'Viksit Bharat 2047'. The high-performance, low-latency services provided by this data center hub are crucial for businesses and organizations seeking to build and scale AI-powered solutions, accelerate research and development, and contribute to India's continued growth story.

Adani's investment also comes amidst other major developments in the sector, such as Digital Connexion, a joint venture between Reliance Industries, Brookfield, and Digital Realty, announcing plans to invest $11 billion in data centers, also in Visakhapatnam, further highlighting the region's strategic importance in India's digital future.
