Adani Group, an Indian integrated infrastructure and green energy conglomerate, and Jabil Inc., a global provider of engineering, supply chain, and manufacturing solutions, have announced the intent to form a strategic alliance to establish a vertically integrated AI and data center infrastructure manufacturing platform in India.
The alliance integrates Jabil’s engineering, cross-industry manufacturing expertise, and hyperscale data center solutions with Adani Group’s infrastructure footprint, green energy portfolio, logistics network, and rapidly expanding domestic data center operations.
In a press release, Adani Group revealed that the platform plans to deploy multi-GW of high-density AI Rack manufacturing capacity in India including liquid-cooled AI racks, servers, storage, and networking systems utilizing Surface Mount Technology (SMT) and complex box-build processes.
It further said that beyond computing racks, 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. The two organizations are currently working on the definitive operational frameworks and formal documentation to accelerate the execution of this manufacturing roadmap.
“Nations that master the symmetry between energy and compute will shape the next decade. India is uniquely positioned to lead,” said Gautam Adani, Chairman, Adani Group. “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.”
“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,” said Mike Dastoor, CEO, Jabil. “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.”
Apart from catering to India’s burgeoning demand for AI infrastructure, this alliance aligns with Adani Group’s US$ 100 billion commitment to develop 5 GW of green-energy-powered, hyperscale AI-ready data centers by 2035, complementing established collaborations with global technology leaders.
This alliance serves as a flagship paradigm for the next phase of the Make in India vision, transitioning the nation from an importer of digital infrastructure into a dominant global manufacturer and exporter of AI hardware.
