OpenAI has reported a threefold surge in AI adoption across India, making it one of the fastest-growing AI markets globally. The country now ranks as ChatGPT’s second-largest user base, driven by its young, tech-forward population and expanding digital ecosystem.
To further strengthen its local presence and collaboration, OpenAI plans to open its first India office in New Delhi, marking a pivotal move in its global expansion strategy. The new hub will focus on innovation partnerships, developer outreach, and AI upskilling across industries.
Oliver J., Managing Director for International Strategy at OpenAI, said:
“The momentum we see in India is incredible. We’re seeing tremendous growth AI adoption has tripled year over year. India’s young population is eager to explore frontier technologies, and when we think about India, we fundamentally believe that if you build for India, you can build for the world. India is truly leading the adoption of the next generation of AI.”
The expansion underscores OpenAI’s recognition of India’s strategic role in shaping the global AI economy, as the nation continues to invest heavily in data, innovation, and digital talent.
