Reliance Industries is close to finalizing talks with OpenAI and Meta to provide data center capacity from its new 3-gigawatt AI center in Jamnagar, according to The Information (March 22, 2025). The $30 billion campus, which will be the largest in the world, will fuel AI businesses for the two tech giants.
Major Developments:
Partnership Goals: OpenAI and Meta seek Reliance’s infrastructure to expand AI services in India’s booming market.
Price Cut: OpenAI plans to slash ChatGPT Plus subscription costs in India, countering its global price hikes, to boost accessibility.
Tech Synergy: Reliance’s green-energy-powered data centers, built with Nvidia chips, align with Meta’s AI scalability and OpenAI’s GPT-4 advancements.
This trifecta collaboration aims to democratize AI tools in India, balancing cutting-edge infrastructure with affordable pricing. OpenAI’s potential India-specific discount contrasts its projected $44/month global rate by 2029, reflecting fierce competition in Bharat’s tech landscape.
