The Adani Group, led by billionaire Gautam Adani, is preparing to make a massive $5 billion investment in Google's artificial intelligence infrastructure within data centers located in southern India, according to a recent Bloomberg report.
Investment Details and Current Status
Chief Financial Officer Jugeshinder Singh revealed on Friday, November 28, 2025, that while the investment plan is advancing, specific details are still being finalized. This substantial commitment demonstrates the growing confidence in India's data center market and positions the Adani Group as a key player in the country's digital transformation journey.
The investment follows closely on the heels of the partnership between Adani Enterprise and Google's parent company Alphabet through their joint venture AdaniConneX Pvt. Ltd. The companies had previously announced ambitious plans to develop India's largest AI data center campus at Visakhapatnam in Andhra Pradesh.
The Google-Adani Strategic Partnership
The collaboration between the American tech giant and the Indian conglomerate began taking shape on October 14, 2025, when Google partnered with Adani Enterprises to construct a $15 billion AI hub in Visakhapatnam. This facility is set to become Google's largest data center outside the United States.
The massive 1 GW data center campus will feature cutting-edge AI infrastructure, new large-scale energy sources, and an expanded fiber-optic network. According to company announcements, this initiative creates substantial economic and societal opportunities for both India and the United States while pioneering a generational shift in AI capability.
India's Booming Data Center Market
This investment comes at a time when India's data center industry is experiencing unprecedented growth. According to CBRE Group estimates, India's overall data center market is expected to cross $100 billion by the end of 2027.
The Adani Group's move aligns with Google's broader plan to invest $15 billion over the next five years, from 2026 to 2030, supporting the central government's Viksit Bharat 2047 vision. The data center hub is designed to deliver high-performance, low-latency services that businesses and organizations need to build and scale AI-powered solutions, accelerate research and development, and contribute to India's growth story.
The timing of this announcement is particularly significant as it coincides with Digital Connexion, a joint venture of Reliance Industries, Brookfield and Digital Realty, announcing its own $11 billion investment plan for data centers in Visakhapatnam, indicating a major infrastructure push in the region.
