Adani Enterprises and Jabil Target Strategic Alliance for Building AI Data Center Infrastructure Platform in India

Adani Enterprises and Jabil Target Strategic Alliance for Building AI Data Center Infrastructure Platform in India​

Ahmedabad / St Petersburg, FL, USA – June 15, 2026 – Adani Group, a leading integrated infrastructure and green energy conglomerate, and Jabil Inc., a global leader in engineering, supply chain, and manufacturing solutions, have announced an intent to form a strategic alliance. The collaboration aims to establish a world-class, vertically integrated AI and data center infrastructure manufacturing platform based in India.

The partnership is designed to meet the explosive local and global demand for AI-ready data center hardware. This powerful combination integrates Jabil's six decades of advanced engineering expertise and hyperscale data center solutions with Adani Group's extensive infrastructure footprint, green energy portfolio, logistics network, and domestic data center operations.

Platform Focus and Scope​

The alliance focuses on developing a comprehensive manufacturing platform anchored by several core pillars:

• Giga-Scale AI Rack Architecture: The initiative plans to deploy multi-GW of high-density AI Rack manufacturing capacity in India. This involves the advanced manufacturing and integration of next-generation liquid-cooled AI racks, servers, storage, and networking systems, utilizing state-of-the-art SMT (Surface Mount Technology) and complex box-build processes.
• 360-Degree Ecosystem: Beyond computing hardware, the alliance encompasses full-spectrum white space and grey space device manufacturing. This includes Power Distribution Units (PDUs), Coolant Distribution Units (CDUs), Transformers, Switchgears, Bus Bars, and advanced thermal management systems. Adani and Jabil intend to offer an end-to-end, design-to-deployment hardware ecosystem.
• Market Readiness: The initiative addresses a global market opportunity valued at over USD 3 trillion over the next seven years, driven by investments in AI compute. Both organizations are currently working on the definitive operational frameworks and formal documentation to accelerate execution of this manufacturing roadmap.

Strategic Market Rationale​

The alliance operates against the backdrop of a rapidly transforming data center market in India. Industry forecasts project the country's capacity to reach between 5-8 GW by 2030, driven by growing AI demand, cloud expansion, and data localization requirements.

Global hyperscalers are accelerating investment in India’s digital infrastructure, with more than USD 50 billion in planned spending across data center, cloud, and AI ecosystems. This trend, combined with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, is driving increased demand for domestically manufactured hardware and strengthening India's role as a strategic technology manufacturing hub. The market position is further enhanced by the Union Budget 2026's landmark tax holiday for data centers until 2047.

The collaboration directly supports Adani Group’s commitment of USD 100 billion to develop 5 GW of green-energy-powered, hyperscale AI-ready data centers by 2035. Jabil, which reported USD 29.8 billion in revenue for fiscal year 2025, brings capabilities expanded through strategic expansions and the acquisitions of Hanley Energy Group and Mikros Technologies.

Impact on 'Make In India' Vision​

The Adani-Jabil platform is positioned as a flagship paradigm for the next phase of the Make in India vision. By domestically anchoring high-value, deep-tech manufacturing, the platform aims to transition the nation from being an importer of digital infrastructure into a dominant global manufacturer and exporter of AI hardware. This initiative is expected to strengthen global supply chain resilience and generate thousands of highly skilled engineering jobs.

Leadership Commentary​

Mr. Gautam Adani, Chairman of Adani Group, stated: "The world is entering an Intelligence Revolution more profound than any previous Industrial Revolution. Nations that master the symmetry between energy and compute will shape the next decade. India is uniquely positioned to lead. Our alliance with Jabil represents a decisive step in building India's complete AI infrastructure stack - from green power generation to world-class hardware manufacturing. Together, we will ensure India is not merely a consumer in the AI age, but a creator, builder, and exporter of intelligence."

Mr. Mike Dastoor, CEO of Jabil, commented: "This strategic collaboration with Adani Group is another step forward in our efforts to create long-term value for customers throughout the AI ecosystem by offering scalable solutions across the product lifecycle. By combining Jabil's more than sixty years of engineering expertise and advanced manufacturing capabilities with Adani's formidable infrastructure and energy platform, we can expect to execute down to the rack level for hyperscalers and enterprises here in India and across the globe. As India becomes one of the world's fastest-growing AI markets, the country's skilled workforce and supportive business environment make it an attractive destination for this collaboration."
