MUMBAI, India, Feb 17, 2026 (BSS/AFP) - India's Adani Group said Tuesday it plans to invest $100 billion by 2035 to develop "hyperscale AI-ready data centres", a boost to New Delhi's push to become a global artificial intelligence hub. The announcement comes as India hosts a five-day global AI summit that will see deliberations over issues ranging from job disruption to child safety. The $100 billion investment would catalyse an additional $150 billion in spending across "server manufacturing, advanced electrical infrastructure, sovereign cloud platforms and supporting industries", the Adani Group said in a statement. "Together, this is projected to create a $250 billion AI infrastructure ecosystem in India over the decade," the statement noted. "The Adani Group is also in discussion with other major players seeking to establish large scale campuses across India thereby further cementing its position as India's premier AI infrastructure partner," the statement added.
