IndiaAI Mission

Overview

The IndiaAI Mission was approved with an outlay of ₹10,371.92 crore to build AI capacity through public and private partnerships. Its pillars include AI compute, datasets, indigenous models, applications, skills and startup financing.

Why explore it

Teams building AI for connected devices, manufacturing or robotics can track relevant compute access, application challenges and startup programmes as individual calls open. The mission is broader than Physical AI, so match your project to a specific pillar.

Key facts

The original mission design called for AI compute infrastructure of 10,000 or more GPUs and an AI marketplace. It also proposed domain-specific foundational models and applications addressing public-sector problem statements.

Best next step

Review the official mission description and the current IndiaAI programme notices for live calls, eligibility and deadlines. The mission budget is an overall outlay, not a direct applicant award.
