Will next year be a turning point for AI in India?
Mint Mumbai
|December 31, 2025
In 2025, a dozen government-backed startups began building foundational artificial intelligence models, with one raising more than $100 million in funding.
Data centres saw a massive boom as Big Tech swooped in. Mint examines what lies ahead for AI in India in 2026:
1 Will 2026 see rollout of India's own DeepSeek?
In a way, yes. India will host the next global AI summit, scheduled for 15 February in New Delhi. The IT ministry said on Monday that one of the intended goals would be to have at least one government backed AI entity showcase its foundational model by then, as proof that AI trained primarily on non-English language datasets can achieve performance standards comparable to those of global AI systems. Insiders have said at least one such model is nearly ready, and could mark the start of deployment of 'sovereign' AI models-generative intelligence algorithms fully trained, built and optimized in India.
