Reliance Industries to Establish "Reliance Intelligence" to Promote AI Across India

Reliance Industries Chairman Mukesh Ambani announced the formation of Reliance Intelligence, a new subsidiary that will house large-scale AI infrastructure in India and provide AI services for consumers, businesses, and sectors of national importance. The company will build gigawatt-scale data centers powered by green energy and foster AI talent. Reliance Intelligence aims to deliver trusted, easy-to-use AI services and create a home for world-class researchers and engineers.

Reliance Industries Chairman Mukesh Ambani recently announced the formation of Reliance Intelligence, a new subsidiary dedicated to advancing artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure and services in India. The initiative aims to build gigawatt-scale data centers powered by green energy, fostering AI talent, and delivering trusted, easy-to-use AI solutions for consumers, businesses, and sectors of national importance [1].

The announcement came during Reliance Industries' 48th Annual General Meeting (AGM) on Friday, August 29, 2025. Ambani stated that Reliance Intelligence will combine the company's scale and deep industry expertise with open-source AI models to create sovereign, enterprise-ready AI solutions for various sectors, including energy, retail, telecom, media, and manufacturing [1].

Meta, the global technology company, is a key partner in this venture. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg emphasized that the collaboration will expand access to AI in India, empowering entrepreneurs, creators, and businesses with advanced tools [1]. The joint venture is seen as a long-term effort to build a sovereign AI infrastructure for India, potentially serving as a global model for AI delivery [1].

Reliance Intelligence's focus on green energy-powered data centers aligns with the broader trend of sustainable development in the tech industry. The initiative is also part of Reliance's broader strategy to integrate new energy value chains, as highlighted by CLSA in their recent report [3].

The formation of Reliance Intelligence is a significant development in India's AI landscape. It reflects the growing importance of AI in national security and government operations, as seen in Anthropic's recent move to form a National Security and Public Sector Advisory Council [2]. This council advises on integrating AI into sensitive government operations, emphasizing security, ethics, and compliance, and underscoring the intensifying global competition over AI capabilities [2].

For investors and financial professionals, Reliance Intelligence represents a strategic investment in India's AI future. The initiative is part of Reliance's broader expansion plans, which include the Jio IPO, AI offerings via Jio, and FMCG expansion. These factors could drive significant growth and value for shareholders [3].
