Indian investors have committed $330.5 billion to various sectors of the US economy, according to a White House accounting that forms part of a broader $10.871 trillion in foreign direct investment flowing into American enterprises.
The investment package is headlined by a $300 billion refinery project from Reliance Industries, the Mumbai-based conglomerate. The facility represents one of the largest single capital commitments from an Indian firm to the US market in recent years.
The White House compilation reflects the administration's efforts to quantify foreign investment contributions to the American economy. India's investment position underscores the expanding economic relationship between New Delhi and Washington, particularly as both nations seek to strengthen commercial and strategic partnerships.
The broader foreign investment total of $10.871 trillion encompasses commitments from multiple countries and sectors, highlighting the continued attractiveness of the US market to international capital. Indian firms have increasingly diversified their US operations beyond traditional sectors, signalling growing confidence in long-term returns from American ventures.
The figures come as India and the United States continue bilateral negotiations on trade, investment frameworks, and technology cooperation. Economic engagement between the two countries has accelerated in recent years, driven by shared interests in technology, energy security, and regional stability.
