Google Cloud Expands AI Infrastructure in India

Google Cloud is significantly expanding its artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure in India, planning to locally host advanced models and deploy its complete AI stack in one of its fastest-growing global markets.

The Gemini 1.5 Flash model is already hosted in India, with more advanced versions like Gemini 2.5 Flash expected soon as part of Google’s annual AI update cycle. Local hosting will benefit Indian enterprises and developers with lower latency, better performance, and enhanced data sovereignty.

Google Cloud operates from two Indian regions—Mumbai and Delhi NCR—with the latter focusing on regulated sectors including government services. The company is collaborating with the Indian government on the Rs 100.00 billion IndiaAI Mission, which offers subsidised compute infrastructure to startups and researchers.

Among public sector initiatives, Google Cloud powers the iGOT Karmayogi platform, which uses AI for personalised civil servant training. Google’s AI stack includes the Vertex AI development platform, Tensor Processing Units, Graphics Processing Units, and pre-built agents for support, analytics, and security.

This expansion highlights India’s key role in Google Cloud’s global AI strategy and aligns with government efforts to boost AI innovation and digital infrastructure.
