Oct 28, 2024 | Posted by Abdul-Rahman Oladimeji

Several companies in India have made significant orders for Nvidia chips. Among those firms are Reliance Industries, Tech Mahindra, Tata Communications, and Yotta Data Services. As reported by TechCrunch, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has revealed a slew of partnerships with Indian firms to deploy its chips at its AI Summit in Mumbai.

Tata Communications is upgrading its AI cloud infrastructure in India with Nvidia Hopper GPUs. The company will begin the first phase of its large-scale deployment of Hopper GPUs at the end of this year, while a second phase in 2025 will see the addition of Nvidia's Blackwell GPUs. According to Tata Communications, this will be one of India's largest supercomputers.

“Tata Communications’ AI cloud infrastructure, integrating Nvidia accelerated computing, will support businesses of all sizes — from AI startups to large enterprises — helping drive artificial intelligence transformation across various sectors of the Indian economy and creating a powerful ecosystem for AI innovation,” said Jay Puri, executive vice president of worldwide field operations at Nvidia.

"Collaborating with Nvidia, we are setting a new benchmark for enterprise-grade AI development by seamlessly integrating gen AI, industrial AI, and sovereign large language models into the heart of global enterprises and industries," Atul Soneja, chief operating officer of Tech Mahindra, said.
