Introducing OpenAI for India
OpenAI News在德里举办的 2026 年 India AI Impact Summit 上， OpenAI 宣布启动一项名为 OpenAI for India 的全国性计划，联手印度主要合作伙伴，推动在世界上人口最多的民主国家扩展人工智能的可及性，并释放其经济与社会效益。
印度目前已有超过 1 亿每周活跃的 ChatGPT 用户，涵盖学生、教师、开发者与创业者。 OpenAI for India 将在此基础上推进，首批合作伙伴包括 Tata Group，目标是构建主权级 AI 能力、加速企业采用、投入劳动力技能提升，并强化印度蓬勃发展的 AI 生态。
为印度构建主权 AI 基础设施
作为全球 Stargate 计划的一部分， OpenAI 与 Tata Group 合作，建设满足数据驻留、安全与长期本土能力需求的本地 AI 就绪数据中心。 OpenAI 将成为 Tata Consultancy Services 的 HyperVault 数据中心业务的首位客户，初期规模为 100 兆瓦容量，并具备未来扩展到 1 吉瓦的潜力。
这套基础设施将使 OpenAI 的最先进模型能够在印度本地安全运行，一方面降低延迟，另一方面满足对关键业务与政府工作负载的数据驻留、安全与合规要求。
在 Tata 生态圈及更广范围推动企业转型
OpenAI 与 Tata Group 同时宣布一项战略性企业合作，旨在推动全球范围内的 AI 原生化转型。 Tata Group 计划在未来几年内部署 ChatGPT Enterprise，为数十万名 TCS 员工首先装配，使其成为全球最大规模的企业级 AI 部署之一。 TCS 也打算使用 OpenAI 的 Codex，在团队间标准化 AI 原生的软件开发流程。
此举是基于 OpenAI 与印度多家领先公司近期的合作，包括 JioHotstar、 Eternal、 Pine Labs、 Cars24、 HCLTech、 PhonePe、 CRED 和 MakeMyTrip。
通过认证与课程建设提升印度人才与教育
OpenAI 将在印度推广 OpenAI Certifications， TCS 成为美国之外的首个参与组织。这些认证旨在帮助专业人士建立适用于各类岗位与行业的实用 AI 技能。
我们还宣布了与多所顶尖院校的教育合作，将提供逾 10 万个 ChatGPT Edu 许可，帮助学生掌握与劳动力市场相关的技能，合作院校包括 Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad、 All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi、 Manipal Academy of Higher Education、 University of Petroleum and Energy Studies 和 Pearl Academy。
扩大在印度的本地布局
为更好地服务印度用户与合作伙伴， OpenAI 计划在今年晚些时候在 孟买 和 班加罗尔 新设办公点，延续其在 新德里 的现有布局。
“印度在 AI 应用上已走在前列，凭借本土技术人才、对 AI 能力的乐观预期以及强有力的政府支持，印度有条件参与塑造 AI 的未来，以及民主化 AI 的大规模普及。通过 OpenAI for India，我们将共同建设所需的基础设施、技能与本地合作关系，以在印度本土与为印度打造 AI。”
—— Sam Altman， OpenAI 首席执行官
“ OpenAI 与 Tata Group 的这次战略合作，是印度实现成为全球 AI 领导者愿景的重要里程碑。我们很高兴与 OpenAI 合作，在印度打造最先进的 AI 基础设施。这为 OpenAI 与 TCS 提供了一个独特机会去变革产业，共同为印度青年提供技能培训，助力他们在 AI 时代取得成功。”
—— N Chandrasekaran， Tata Sons 董事长
Today at the India AI Impact Summit 2026 in Delhi, we’re launching OpenAI for India, a nationwide initiative with leading Indian partners to expand access to AI and unlock its economic and societal benefits in the world’s largest democracy.
India is now home to more than 100 million weekly ChatGPT users, from students and teachers to developers and entrepreneurs. OpenAI for India builds on that momentum, working with leading partners—beginning with Tata Group—to build sovereign AI capabilities, accelerate enterprise adoption, invest in workforce upskilling, and strengthen India’s thriving AI ecosystem.
Laying the foundation for India’s sovereign AI infrastructure
As part of our global Stargate initiative, OpenAI and Tata Group are partnering to develop local, AI-ready data center capacity designed for data residency, security, and long-term domestic capability. OpenAI will become the first customer of Tata Consultancy Services’ HyperVault data center business, beginning with 100 megawatts of capacity and with potential to scale to 1 gigawatt over time.
This infrastructure will enable OpenAI’s most advanced models to run securely in India, delivering lower latency while meeting data residency, security, and compliance requirements for mission-critical and government workloads.
Driving enterprise transformation across the Tata ecosystem and beyond
OpenAI and Tata Group also announced a strategic enterprise collaboration to accelerate AI-native transformation at global scale. Tata Group plans to deploy ChatGPT Enterprise across its employees over the next several years, starting with hundreds of thousands of TCS employees, making it one of the largest enterprise AI deployments in the world. TCS also intends to use OpenAI’s Codex to standardize AI-native software development across teams.
This builds on recent partnerships with leading companies in India, including JioHotstar, Eternal, Pine Labs, Cars24, HCLTech, PhonePe, CRED, and MakeMyTrip.
Upskilling Indians and advancing education through certifications and curriculum development
OpenAI will expand OpenAI Certifications in India, with TCS becoming the first participating organization outside the United States. These certifications are designed to help professionals build practical AI skills that apply across roles and industries.
We have also announced education partnerships with leading institutions, providing more than 100,000 ChatGPT Edu licenses to help prepare students with workforce-relevant skills, including with:
- Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad
- All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi
- Manipal Academy of Higher Education
- University of Petroleum and Energy Studies
- Pearl Academy
Expanding our local presence in India
To better serve users and partners in India, OpenAI also plans to open new offices in Mumbai and Bengaluru later this year, alongside its existing presence in New Delhi.
“India is already leading the way in AI adoption, and with its homegrown tech talent, optimism about what AI can do for the country, and strong government support, it is well placed to help shape its future and how democratic AI is adopted at scale. Through OpenAI for India, we’re working together to build the infrastructure, skills, and local partnerships needed to build AI with India, for India, and in India.”
– Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI
“This strategic collaboration between OpenAI and Tata Group marks a major milestone in India’s vision to become a global leader in AI. We are pleased to partner with OpenAI to create state-of-the-art AI infrastructure in India. This is a unique opportunity for OpenAI and TCS to transform industries. Together we will skill India’s youth and empower them to succeed in the AI era.”
– N Chandrasekaran, Chairman, Tata Sons
