Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) announced that it will increase its investment in the Indian state of Gujarat to approximately Rs. 7 lakh crore (US$ 84.3 billion) over the next five years, marking a significant expansion of its commitments in clean energy and artificial intelligence (AI). The announcement was made by Chairman and Managing Director Mukesh Ambani at the Vibrant Gujarat Regional Conference for the Kutch and Saurashtra regions, highlighting the role of the investment in advancing India’s green energy transition and digital capabilities. The expanded plan represents a near doubling of Reliance’s earlier commitments in the state and reinforces Gujarat’s position as a key hub for next-generation industrial and digital infrastructure.
In Jamnagar, an AI-ready data centre will be built as part of the country’s investment programme. It is intended to provide infrastructure for the development of digital and computing capabilities that will have a large impact on the future of India. As a result of this investment, a platform will be created that utilises AI to provide services through personal devices in different Indian languages. This platform will enhance productivity and access to technology for some groups in India, as well as contribute towards creating a more digitally inclusive society. In addition to their impact on technology and renewable energy infrastructure, these investment initiatives will support investment in sports infrastructure, the development of people and communities, and provide opportunities for developing capacity for the growth of regions. As such, these investment initiatives are aligned with the Government of India’s long-term objectives of sustainable and innovative growth and developing regions evenly.
