The 2nd AI Market Globally

And only 10% of the population is using it.

It’s the 2nd AI market globally. And only 10% of the population is using it.

India hasn’t moved first, but compounds big. Layer after layer, each tech wave was built on the last, from Mobile, to Aadhaar, then UPI, while India’s GDP went from $0.3Tn in 1995 to $1.3Tn by 2009 and $4.1Tn today.

The AI layer is now being laid on top of all of it.

Most importantly, the numbers already reflect it. India is 2nd globally in AI users and top 5 in AI-related research and processes, both with penetration still in its early stages.

Z47, Zinnov, and OpenAI shared this trajectory in their recent report. India’s GDP is projected to reach $8.3Tn GDP by 2035 supported by the same compounding pattern and with AI adding a new layer of opportunity.

In my next issue of India Rising, I will look into the details, share how this is already showing up in global business strategies, and what the AI layer means for the Indo-European corridor specifically.
