As India marks its 79th Independence Day, the AI sovereignty debate shifts to compute, data and indigenous models that could shape the country’s digital future.
AI startup Krutrim, backed by Ola’s Bhavish Aggarwal, lays off over 100 employees in its second round of job cuts within six months, citing a pivot toward leaner, more agile teams.
Ola-backed Krutrim acquires BharatSahayak to scale AI-driven citizen service delivery across Indian states with localized language models and governance tools.
Ola-backed Krutrim will unveil Kruti on June 12, India’s first agentic AI assistant built for proactive, multilingual, and contextual interactions.
