"We are delighted to welcome Google as a strategic investor in Jio Platforms. We have signed a binding partnership and an investment agreement under which Google will invest ₹33,737 crores for a 7.7 per cent stake in Jio Platforms," Ambani said at the company's annual general meeting.
In addition to an investment of ₹33,737 crores, the two companies, that is Google and Jio Platforms, will also be collaborating to build a value-engineered Android-based operating system that will be powering 4G smartphones in India.
Jio is at the center of the Indian tycoon’s ambition to transform his energy conglomerate into a homegrown technology behemoth akin to China’s Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. With Google’s contribution added in, the venture has now attracted somewhere close to $20 billion in recent months. The Reliance share price was up 3% in the buildup to the presentation and has been setting new highs over the past few weeks.

Google’s backing further burnishes Jio’s credentials in its push to upend online retail, content streaming, digital payments, education and health care in a market of more than a billion people.
Global tech leaders are looking for multiple ways to grab a slice of the Indian market, where millions of first-time internet users are added every month. Jio Platforms offers the largest base of such users who are increasingly buying consumer goods online and downloading music and video, using cheap smartphones and Jio’s own cut-price data services.
The flood of investments in Jio is closely tied to the number of internet users it has and the services it can market to them.
