Devroop Dhar, Co-Founder & Managing Director, Primus Partners, shares his view on India's AI investment landscape. He highlights that India will need sustained multi-billion-dollar investments over the next decade to remain competitive globally. Countries like the U.S. and China have heavily invested in AI-specific HPC, cloud infrastructure, and AI research hubs. To match this, India will require an additional ₹20,000–30,000 crore over the next 10 years to expand computing capacity, train large-scale models, and enhance research talent. As India plans for expansive AI growth, collaboration between the public and private sectors will be crucial to integrating AI into the country’s digital infrastructure. This will ensure AI adoption extends beyond the tech industry to key sectors like healthcare, agriculture, manufacturing, and finance.
