Mumbai — October 31, 2025:
Reliance Industries has announced a landmark partnership between its AI arm, Reliance Intelligence, and Google Cloud, aimed at making advanced artificial intelligence tools widely accessible across India. The collaboration includes 18 months of free Google AI Pro plan access for Jio users and expanded availability of Google’s AI hardware accelerators (TPUs) in the country.
Empowering Jio Users with AI Tools
As part of the agreement, Reliance and Google will roll out the Google AI Pro plan featuring Gemini 2.5 Pro to eligible Jio users at no cost for 18 months — a package valued at INR 35,100 (approximately USD 395).
The plan provides:
- Full access to Gemini 2.5 Pro in the Gemini app
- Expanded generation limits for images and videos using Nano Banana and Veo 3.1 models
- Notebook LM for study and research support
- 2 TB of Google Cloud storage
The initial rollout will target 18–25-year-old Jio users on unlimited 5G plans, with nationwide expansion planned “in the shortest time possible.”
Boosting India’s AI Infrastructure
The partnership also includes a deal to broaden access to Google Cloud’s tensor processing units (TPUs) — specialized AI accelerators optimized for model training and inference. This move aims to empower organizations to train and deploy larger AI models and deliver faster inferencing, accelerating adoption across India’s growing AI ecosystem.
Strategic Go-To-Market Partnership
Under the agreement, Reliance Intelligence will act as a strategic go-to-market partner for Google Cloud, promoting Gemini Enterprise, Google’s unified agentic AI platform. Reliance will also develop and offer its own pre-built enterprise AI agents within Gemini Enterprise, providing customers with a broader mix of Google-built and third-party AI solutions.
This collaboration follows Reliance’s recent joint venture with Meta to develop agentic AI platforms and tools for enterprises in India and select global markets, signaling a broader push by the conglomerate into the AI space.
Leaders Speak
Reliance Industries Chairman Mukesh D. Ambani said the partnership reflects a shared vision to democratize AI and build a robust foundation for India’s digital future.
“Through our collaboration with strategic and long-term partners like Google, we aim to make India not just AI-enabled but AI-empowered — where every citizen and enterprise can harness intelligent tools to create, innovate, and grow.”
Sundar Pichai, CEO of Google and Alphabet, added:
“Today’s announcement will put Google’s cutting-edge AI tools in the hands of consumers, businesses, and India’s vibrant developer community.”
