On National Technology Day, we celebrate the power of innovation and the transformative potential of data in shaping India’s digital future. As Indian enterprises accelerate their AI journeys, the ability to use data intelligently is fast becoming a core differentiator. With the rise of AI, particularly Agentic AI, there is a growing need to ensure that data strategies are not just scalable, but also secure, governed, and future-ready.

Our recent study highlights this momentum, 84% of Indian organizations have implemented AI agents in the past two years, with 36% doing so in just the last 12 months. This upward trend is expected to continue, with 98% planning to expand usage and 78% targeting organization-wide deployment. In response, forward-looking businesses in India are adopting open data architectures to build resilient, insight-driven ecosystems. As technology continues to evolve, the synergy between data, cloud, and AI will play a defining role in enabling sustainable growth and global competitiveness for Indian businesses.
