IndiaAI Mission
India's centerpiece sovereign AI strategy, sanctioned at roughly $1.25 billion by the Indian Cabinet in March 2024 and implemented by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) across seven pillars: compute, foundation models, datasets, applications, safety, startups, and skills. As of mid-2026 the Mission has deployed roughly 34,000 GPUs across Indian data centers, accessible to registered startups, academic researchers, and government agencies, and its model pillar backed Sarvam AI's sovereign LLM effort. MeitY has also issued AI governance guidelines under the Mission, and India hosted the AI Impact Summit in New Delhi in February 2026.
