By Nidhi Bhardwaj: In India, public funding for the Digital India mission increased by 67 percent from last year to Rs10,676 crores in 2022-23; the mission outlines a plan to use AI to promote financial inclusion, supplement the education sector, and transform urban infrastructure. States such as Tamil Nadu, Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, and Telangana are already utilising AI-based tools to support law and order, increase agricultural productivity, and improve health care delivery. The AI market in India is expected to grow at a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of 20.2 percent to $7.8 billion by 2025. Startups in India have contributed to India's GDP in addition to government initiatives. Experts believe that AI will account for 400-500 billion dollars in India's GDP by 2025, accounting for 10 percent of the country's $5 trillion GDP target.
