CHENNAI: Amazon India is set to lay off between 800 and 1,000 corporate employees as part of the tech giant’s global workforce reduction plan, according to reports. The move comes as Amazon undertakes a major restructuring drive aimed at streamlining operations and aligning teams with its evolving business priorities.

The Indian layoffs are expected to affect corporate and support functions rather than frontline roles in logistics or retail operations. Amazon India employs tens of thousands across technology, product, and corporate teams in cities such as Bengaluru, Hyderabad, and Gurugram. Sources said the affected employees will receive full pay and benefits for a limited period, likely around 90 days, along with severance packages and the option to seek redeployment within the company.
