AI To Power India’s Next Economic Leap: IBM-India; AI Study Finds AI Could Add Over $500 Billion To India’s Economy By 2030

* 80% of Indian business leaders say AI will directly help shape nation’s economic trajectory, as India propels to become global AI powerhouse

* 73% of Indian executives believe India will emerge as a leading global AI nation by 2030

India is entering a defining phase in its economic transformation as artificial intelligence (AI) is set to move beyond experimentation to become a foundational force powering national growth, according to a new study by the IBM (NYSE: IBM) Institute for Business Value and IndiaAI. The research reveals that AI could contribute more than $500 billion to India’s economy by 2030, positioning the country among the world’s most dynamic AI-driven economies.

Titled ‘From promise to power: How AI is redefining India’s economic future’, the study underscores a powerful convergence of ambition and urgency: four in five business leaders believe AI investments will directly influence India’s GDP growth, while 73% expect India to emerge as a leading global AI nation by 2030.

Looking ahead, the research also reveals a critical inflection gap as 72% of surveyed organizations acknowledge they are behind global peers in AI adoption. Bridging this divide between ambition and execution will be pivotal in determining India’s leadership in the global AI economy.

Speaking at the report’s launch, Shri S Krishnan, Secretary - Ministry of Electronics & Information Technology (MeitY), Government of India said, “India is no longer just participating in the global AI conversation, we are helping shape it. Our vision is clear. AI must evolve as an extension of our people’s aspirations, driving inclusive growth and national progress. Guided by our vision of Viksit Bharat, we are advancing a human centric approach to AI rooted in trust, ethics, and national sovereignty. This joint IndiaAI and IBM study is a timely contribution that will help align policy, industry, and innovation to unlock AI’s full potential for India’s economic future.”

“AI has the potential to become one of the most powerful growth engines for India’s economy,” said Sandip Patel, Managing Director, IBM India & South Asia. “What will set India apart is not just the scale of adoption, but how organizations build trusted AI agents and systems on strong data foundations, hybrid architectures, and a workforce empowered to work alongside AI. With the right investments in skills, governance, and infrastructure, India can translate AI ambition into sustained economic impact,” he added.

India’s AI moment: Converging on a sovereign hybrid model

For regulated sectors and public systems, a sovereign AI foundation is fast becoming a strategic necessity. 74% of surveyed executives say control over where data resides is essential, pointing to a growing convergence around sovereign, hybrid-by-design architecture. This does not imply isolation, rather when combined with open standards it enables organizations to access global innovation while retaining control over sensitive workloads. This model is emerging as the trust layer that will allow India to scale AI confidently and on its own terms.

Organizations are increasingly adopting a hybrid approach to balance performance, cost, and control, with 7 in 10 surveyed executives saying it improves control over data location without significantly increasing costs.

Data and AI infrastructure will be key

India may be racing toward an AI-powered future, but the data reveals a more complex story. 57% respondents cite uneven data quality and 77% lack of accessible, affordable, and secure cloud infrastructure are major barriers to AI readiness. Despite the excitement around advanced AI, the findings indicate that Indian enterprises’ ability to scale AI is shaped not by the sophistication of the models but by the readiness of enterprise data and infrastructure. These foundational technical choices emerge as a key factor in transforming AI from experiment into an operational engine that delivers enterprise-wide impact.

Building India’s AI talent pipeline at scale

India has made significant progress in building an AI talent pool, but the study points to a growing skills gap. Today, only about 30% of employees possess the level of AI literacy businesses say they require. By 2030, respondents indicate that figure must rise to nearly 57%. This suggests the total AI talent needed in India will be more than 350 million by 2030. The findings highlight the pressure to rethink how India learns and works—through new education models, redesigned career pathways, and clearer guidance on which skills matter most in an AI-driven economy. Initiatives like IndiaAI FutureSkills are responding by embedding AI fluency into education and corporate training, with data and AI labs expanding across Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, helping broaden access to AI skills development and to address this gap nationwide.

Other key findings from the study:

Enterprises are preparing to move from pilots to AI at scale

15% of surveyed organizations are currently scaling AI through significant cross-functional investments, while the remaining 85% are in pilot-stage AI initiatives.

Sovereign and hybrid cloud architectures are foundational to scaling trustworthy AI

62% of respondents say data localization strengthens trust, while 77% pointed out that Indian-based cloud capacity is critical for trustworthy AI.

67% of surveyed executives say AI innovation will be constrained without stronger domestic capability.

Focus on integrating robust AI governance and deeper ecosystem partnerships

68% of surveyed enterprises cite gaps in AI governance as a barrier to scaling, while 45% say they are piloting or have already embedded governance practices into everyday systems.

Partnerships are becoming more focused as 68% of surveyed executives say India needs an ecosystem-oriented approach to AI adoption.

68% of enterprises are already developing, optimizing, or scaling external AI partnerships.

Methodology

This report draws on multilayered research combining quantitative surveys, pulse-based sentiment tracking, expert insights, and secondary analysis to understand the state and trajectory of AI adoption in India. It surveyed 1,500 Indian executives across industries representing diverse organizational sizes and leadership roles, spanning CEOs, CTOs, CAIOs, CDOs, Chief strategy officer / head of strategy, and departmental heads managing cloud and AI strategies under union and state governments. A supplementary pulse survey of 405 Indian executives was conducted by the same agency to capture rapid shifts in sentiment around AI governance, operating model readiness, security practices, and ecosystem partnerships.

UTI Value Fund – A Fund That Looks For Opportunities Across The Market Cap

Financial experts often recommend that investors should invest in funds that nearly capture the complete spectrum of the markets, in other words, well diversified funds. One tends to gravitate towards large cap funds since they optically cover anywhere from ~80-85% of the market capitalization. Although large caps do represent the broader markets/indices, investors should recognize that these funds do not always reflect or capture the opportunities across the spectrum. The entire spectrum could include opportunities in different market capitalizations, different investment approaches (growth vs. value) or even the cyclicality in certain segments of the overall markets. This anomaly or rather varied market dynamics gives the fund manager/s the broad field for unique opportunities across the market capitalization spectrum and investment styles at the same time ensure that the relative portfolio risk is reduced.

UTI Value Fund is one such fund that looks for opportunities which are expressed in terms of relative intrinsic value of a given stock. This means following a “Value” style of investment and across market capitalizations, where “Value” is buying stocks for less than their intrinsic value. Intrinsic value is simply the current value of the cash flows that the company generates for its shareholders over a period of time. Undervalued businesses can be found at two ends of the spectrum. At one end, the market may under appreciate the sustainability of competitive advantages and/or the length of the growth runway for the company. These companies defy the norm of cyclicality and reversion to mean. At the other end of the spectrum there are companies that may be experiencing challenges due to cyclical factors, changes in the environment or their own past actions. But if the core business is healthy and a path to a better future (cash flows, return ratios) is visible, then their depressed valuations offer an attractive entry point. The opportunity in both cases is to buy businesses which are cheaper relative to expectations.

UTI Value Fund was launched in the year 2005. The Fund has an AUM of over Rs. 9,400 Crores as of Apr 30, 2026. While the portfolio will have a large cap bias, the midcap exposure could vary more widely based on valuation differentials. The Fund has about 63% invested into Large Caps and remaining in Mid & Small caps as on Apr 30, 2026. The scheme’s top holding consists of HDFC Bank Ltd., ICICI Bank Ltd., Bharti Airtel Ltd., Axis Bank Ltd., State Bank of India Ltd., Kotak Mahindra Bank Ltd., Infosys Ltd., Mahindra and Mahindra Ltd., Reliance Industries Ltd., Tech Mahindra Ltd., which accounts for about 41% of the portfolio’s holdings.

UTI Value Fund may be suitable for those equity investors who are looking to build their equity portfolio and seek long-term capital growth. The Fund is also suitable for investors with a moderate risk profile, looking for reasonable returns over the medium to long term subject to market conditions

Lilly Launches Lormalzi® (Donanemab), First And Only Once-Monthly Amyloid Plaque-Targeting Terapy

* For The Treatment Of Early Symptomatic Alzheimer’s Disease In India

* Prescription only, limited duration dosing regimen guided by amyloid plaque removal

Eli Lilly and Company (India) Pvt. Ltd. today announced the launch of Lormalzi® (donanemab, 350 mg/20 mL IV vial) in India, following marketing authorisation from the Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease with mild cognitive impairment or those in the mild dementia stage of disease.¹˒² Lormalzi® is the first and only once‑monthly amyloid plaque‑targeting therapy, with clinical evidence demonstrating the potential for treatment optimisation based on amyloid reduction.3-6

Amyloid is a protein produced naturally in the body that can clump together to create amyloid plaques. The excessive buildup of amyloid plaques in the brain may lead to memory and thinking issues associated with Alzheimer's disease.7, 8 Lormalzi, a prescription only drug, can help the body remove the excessive buildup of amyloid plaques and slow the decline that may diminish people's cognitive ability.1

“For 35 years, Lilly has been a global pioneer advancing research of therapies and diagnostics for people with Alzheimer’s disease,” said Winselow Tucker, President and General Manager, Eli Lilly and Company (India). “Alzheimer’s is a complex, progressive condition that places a significant emotional, clinical, and societal burden on patients, caregivers, and healthcare systems. The launch of Lormalzi in India reflects our longstanding commitment to advancing innovation and supporting evidence-based intervention for people living with Alzheimer’s disease in India. We are committed to strengthening patient access by collaborating closely with stakeholders across the healthcare ecosystem, including industry, government, payers, healthcare systems, and advocacy organisations, to raise awareness and address barriers to diagnosis and treatment.”

“Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that significantly impacts memory and cognitive abilities and decades of research have highlighted the importance of intervening early in the disease continuum,” said Rahul Kapur, Senior Director, Medical, Eli Lilly and Company (India). “Approximately one-third of patients in early symptomatic stages of the disease will progress to more advanced clinical stages within one year, highlighting the need to address key drivers of disease progression.9 Lormalzi is supported by robust clinical evidence targeting amyloid pathology, a key feature of the disease process. Its availability in India represents an important step forward in advancing evidence-based care for eligible patients with early symptomatic Alzheimer’s disease. Early diagnosis, supported by appropriate patient assessment, remains central to enabling informed, evidence led treatment decisions.”

India is facing a rapidly growing Alzheimer’s disease burden driven by population aging, low awareness, and delayed diagnosis. Dementia currently affects approximately 8.8 million people in India, with Alzheimer’s disease accounting for the majority of cases, and this number is projected to nearly double to ~16.9 million by 2036, posing a significant public health and economic challenge.10,11.Globally, the number of people living with dementia is projected to triple to 152 million by 2050.12 Dementia already costs the Indian economy over approximately ₹28,300 crore annually, a burden expected to rise substantially with increasing prevalence and longer life expectancy.13

Early diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease can enable timely access to appropriate interventions, supporting better symptom management, improved quality of life, and more favourable long-term outcomes.14,15 It can also help reduce the economic and social burden of the disease, as research indicates that delaying the onset of Alzheimer’s dementia by two years may lower caregiving needs and significantly reduce care costs.16

Indulekha Bringha Hair Growth Serum Completes Second Clinical Trial, Proves New Hair Growth In 90 Days

Clinical trials show the Ayurvedic hair growth serum grows over 11,000 new hair strands in 90 days while improving hair density and root strength.

Indulekha has announced the successful completion of its second large clinical study on the Indulekha Bringha Hair Growth Serum, further strengthening its position as the most clinically validated hair growth serum in India.

Key findings from the latest trials, conducted in 2025 following an earlier study in 2024:

• 11,000 new hair strands grown in 90 days validated through a rigorous scientific study.

• Grows 2x more hair than serums containing 3% Redensyl

• 74% improvement in the Anagen-to-Telogen (A:T) ratio establishing the products ability to restore healthier hair growth cycle.

The studies were conducted through registered Clinical Research Organisations under the supervision of dermatologists and Ayurvedic practitioners.

Our approach has always been to combine authentic Ayurvedic formulations with rigorous clinical validation. By conducting two independent clinical trials across two years, we aim to give consumers complete transparency and confidence in the product’s efficacy and its ability to deliver real, measurable results,” said Sairam Subramanian, VP, Haircare, Unilever.

The findings indicate that the formulation supports the natural hair growth cycle by delivering results at a follicular level. It observed that 97% agreed that the serum increases thickness and visibly improves hair volume.

The hair growth market, particularly the scalp serum category, has become increasingly cluttered with several brands offering similar 3% Redensyl-based formulations. In the interest of the consumers we serve, it was therefore essential for us to rigorously evaluate the efficacy of 3% Redensyl through a comparative clinical study against Indulekha Hair Growth Serum, ensuring a more robust, credible, and science-backed assessment of performance.

The dual studies were conducted during 2024 and 2025 on participants aged between 20 and 45 years, including both men and women experiencing early and moderate hair thinning. The trials evaluated multiple parameters associated with hair growth and scalp health, including new hair growth, hair shedding, follicle strength, and scalp barrier function.

Participants in the study also reported strong visible outcomes:

• 100% observed thicker-looking hair

• 97% reported a noticeable reduction in hair fall

• 97% experienced improvement in hair density

The findings from the 2024 clinical trial have already been published, while the 2025 trial results have been submitted for publication in the International Journal of Research in Dermatology.

Indulekha’s efforts reflect a broader effort to bridge traditional Ayurvedic knowledge with modern dermatological science. All clinical studies are conducted on Indian participants with real hair fall conditions, ensuring the results are relevant to Indian scalp characteristics and hair density patterns. With multiple clinical trials conducted across its portfolio to date, Indulekha continues to invest in scientific validation of Ayurvedic formulations.

Agilent And Veeda Lifesciences Launch Joint Analytical Center Of Excellence

* To Accelerate GLP‑1 And Complex Biologics Development Services

The new Bengaluru-based platform integrates mass spectrometry-driven workflows with advanced bioanalytical and clinical research capabilities to deliver regulatory‑ready data for global biopharma sponsors.

Agilent Technologies, a global leader in analytical and laboratory solutions, today announced a strategic collaboration with Veeda Lifesciences to strengthen regulatory‑aligned analytical and bioanalytical workflows supporting biopharma development, as GLP‑1 and other complex therapeutic modalities continue to advance rapidly through global pipelines.

The collaboration brings together Agilent’s expertise in analytical workflow development with Veeda’s established bioanalytical, clinical research and regulatory capabilities, with the objective of enabling high‑quality, inspection‑ready analytical data across early development, clinical, and manufacturing stages. Together, the two organizations aim to support biopharma companies navigating increasingly complex regulatory and data expectations for next‑generation therapies.

Central to the collaboration is the establishment of a joint Center of Excellence (CoE) at Veeda’s biopharma facility in Bengaluru. Designed as a scalable analytics and regulatory‑readiness hub, the CoE will focus on the development and validation of end‑to‑end analytical workflows. The CoE will address the growing analytical demands associated with next‑generation therapies, including GLP‑1 based drugs - where sensitivity, throughput, and data integrity are critical to support regulatory confidence and program progression.

“As GLP‑1 and other complex therapies move rapidly through development, the need for robust, regulatory‑aligned analytics becomes increasingly critical,” said Nandakumar Kalathil, Country General Manager, Agilent India. “Through our collaboration with Veeda, we aim to support biopharma organizations with workflow‑driven analytical approaches that strengthen data quality, compliance, and confidence across the development lifecycle.”

“As Biopharma innovation accelerates across the region, the need for integrated, regulatory ready analytical ecosystems is becoming increasingly critical,” said Bharat Bhardwaj, Vice President and General Manager, Asia Pacific, Agilent Technologies. “This collaboration between Agilent and Veeda Lifesciences reflects our commitment to enabling customers with advanced, scalable solutions that support confident decision-making across the drug development lifecycle, while Asia Pacific’s role as a hub for high quality- globally relevant biopharma research.”

“Biopharma companies today require analytical capabilities that are inspection‑ready from the outset,” said Mr. Binoy Gardi, Group CEO and Managing Director, Veeda Lifesciences. “By collaborating with Agilent, we are strengthening our ability to deliver integrated, regulatory‑aligned analytical workflows that support faster decision‑making and smoother progression from early development through clinical and manufacturing stages.”

Dr. Sanjib Banerjee, Chief Operating Officer (COO), Biopharma at Veeda Lifesciences, added, “This expansion of our service portfolio establishes an advanced, technology‑driven platform for the structural analytical characterization of complex biologics—including peptides (GLP-1), monoclonal antibodies, antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) and other therapeutic proteins. Built on Veeda’s established capabilities in in depth proteomics, glycoproteomic and process‑related impurities analysis, and leveraging Agilent’s high-end Mass Spectrometry, this creates an integrated, regulatory‑aligned analytical ecosystem under one roof.”

By combining Agilent’s high-performance mass spectrometry with Veeda’s integrated bioanalytical and clinical research infrastructure, the partnership aims to extend services to sponsors across an expanding range of next-generation modalities with consistent, inspection-ready datasets. The initiative underscores Agilent and Veeda’s commitment to expand India’s high-end biopharma research infrastructure, while reinforcing India’s role as a trusted destination for advanced, globally aligned biopharma development.

Raise Financial Services Announces Acquisition Of GIBL To Foray Into Insurance Distribution

● Raise will invest in GIBL to build an insurance distribution platform with focus on product, technology & customer experience. Building the technology infrastructure and delivering a product-first experience will be key priorities.

● GIBL will operate independently as an 100% subsidiary of Raise and aims to launch its all new consumer platform for buying & managing insurance services by the end of 2026.

Raise Financial Services today announced that it has acquired GreenLife Insurance Broking Private Limited (GIBL), an established IRDA registered insurance broker, in an all cash & stock deal. Raise Financial is one of emerging players in the capital markets ecosystem that runs and operates platforms like Dhan (India’s fastest growing Stock Trading platform) along with Fuzz AI, Upsurge, Filter Coffee and Stratzy.

Raise Financial Services is expected to invest USD $15 Mn in GIBL to build a direct consumer insurance distribution platform with focus on product, technology & customer experience. The foray into insurance distribution marks a strategic expansion of Raise’s broader financial services ecosystem, enabling the company to offer customers a more comprehensive and integrated financial journey spanning investing, wealth creation and financial protection.

The acquisition of GIBL and subsequent change-of-control has received all required regulatory approvals. Green Life Insurance Broking (GIBL) has partnerships across key major Insurance Providers spanning private and public sector players serving customers in general and life insurance segments. Founded in 2013 by Subir Mukherjee, GIBL has driven insurance adoption across East and North-East India covering 50+ cities and towns via its offline distribution network and has carved a niche as a B2B insurance distributor over the years.

With India’s insurance distribution market presenting a significant long-term growth opportunity driven by rising financial awareness, Raise aims to build a hybrid distribution model combining digital-first consumer experiences with strong advisory-led support across metros, Tier 1 and Tier 2 markets. Following the acquisition, the 25-member GIBL team has joined the Raise ecosystem and will relocate its operations to Mumbai.

“We believe adoption of insurance remains low in India because of lack of transparency, instances of mis-selling and complexities associated with overall understanding and importance of insurance. We are excited about building a consumer-first insurance business with GIBL that will be focussed on users from Metros, Tier 1 & Tier 2 cities and towns. GIBL’s decade-long deep insurance expertise combined with Raise’s product and technology driven approach gives us an opportunity to reimagine how India engages with Insurance.” said Raunak Rathi, Co-Founder & Director of Raise Financial Services.

“At the core GIBL has been focussed on bringing access to insurance across North East India via partnerships and offline distribution through use of technology. We see strong alignment with Raise’ customer first approach and its strength in building and scaling businesses like Dhan & Upsurge with focus on product & technology. Now with Raise we have access to resources that will help us build and scale Insurance to the next level via both online & offline channels.” said Subir Mukherjee, Founder of GIBL.

Malabar Gold & Diamonds Supports Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Appeal On Gold

* Submits Proposal To Strengthen Gold Monetisation Scheme

*  Encourages recycling, reuse, and circulation of existing gold within India as a responsible national priority

* Recommends customer-friendly reforms and jeweller integration to strengthen India’s formal gold ecosystem

Malabar Gold & Diamonds has submitted a comprehensive proposal to the Government of India recommending strategic enhancements to the Gold Monetisation Scheme (GMS), expressing its wholehearted support to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s appeal on responsible gold consumption and the need to strengthen India’s economic resilience through better utilisation of domestic gold resources.

The proposal, submitted by Mr. M.P. Ahammad, Chairman, Malabar Group, to Hon’ble Finance Minister Smt. Nirmala Sitharaman and Hon’ble Commerce & Industry Minister Shri Piyush Goyal, outlines practical measures aimed at increasing public participation in GMS, mobilising idle gold into the formal economy, and encouraging greater recycling, reuse, and circulation of existing gold within India.

India imports nearly 700–800 tonnes of gold annually, resulting in significant foreign exchange outflows and pressure on the current account deficit. At the same time, Indian households and institutions are estimated to hold nearly 25,000–35,000 tonnes of gold in the form of jewellery, coins and bars, much of which remains economically idle.

Malabar Gold & Diamonds stated that greater focus on recycling, exchange, reuse, and monetisation of existing domestic gold can play an important role in reducing import dependency, limiting dollar outflow, and strengthening the Indian economy over the long term.

Commenting on the proposal, Mr. M.P. Ahammad, Chairman, Malabar Group, said: “India possesses one of the world’s largest privately held gold reserves while continuing to rely significantly on imports to meet domestic demand. We wholeheartedly support the Hon’ble Prime Minister’s appeal and believe that encouraging responsible utilisation, recycling, and circulation of existing gold within the country is an important national priority. With appropriate policy support and active integration of the organised jewellery sector, the Gold Monetisation Scheme can emerge as a highly effective mechanism for mobilising idle gold into the formal economy.”

The proposal notes that while the Gold Monetisation Scheme was introduced to reduce import dependence and monetise idle domestic gold holdings, public participation remained limited due to longer lock-in periods, lower perceived returns, limited redemption flexibility, and procedural challenges.

To improve effectiveness and adoption of the scheme, Malabar Gold & Diamonds has recommended:

Integration of organised jewellers into the GMS framework under regulatory oversight

Reduction in minimum deposit quantity from 10 grams to 1 gram

Flexible redemption options in either gold weight or cash

Lower lock-in periods and improved liquidity options

Simplified Aadhaar-based e-KYC procedures

Customer incentives through jeweller participation, including loyalty-linked benefits

Improved transparency in purity testing, valuation, and refining

Consideration of GST waiver on gold brought back into the formal system

Alignment of GMS with Gold Metal Loan (GML) frameworks for better utilisation within the industry

The proposal also recommends a jeweller-assisted collection and facilitation framework operating under bank and regulatory supervision, with digital tracking systems and transparent processing mechanisms to improve customer confidence and operational efficiency.

According to the proposal, mobilisation of even 1–2% of India’s domestic gold holdings could potentially release nearly 600–700 tonnes of gold into circulation, equivalent to a substantial portion of the country’s annual gold import demand.

Malabar Gold & Diamonds believes that encouraging recycling, reuse, exchange, and monetisation of existing gold within India can become a meaningful economic lever for the country. The company stated that a stronger and more accessible Gold Monetisation Scheme can help reduce import dependence, lower foreign exchange outflows, improve circulation of domestic gold resources, and contribute towards building a more resilient and self-reliant economy in line with the Hon’ble Prime Minister’s vision.
