Enterprise AI Company Fractal Launches Dedicated India Business Unit

MUMBAI, India — Global enterprise AI company Fractal Analytics Ltd. has announced the launch of a dedicated India Business Unit (India BU). The newly established unit aims to help large Indian enterprises accelerate their business transformation by leveraging Fractal's enterprise agentic AI platform, Cogentiq, alongside its broader product portfolio.

The expansion builds on the company's nearly two decades of operational history within the country's AI ecosystem. Fractal has previously partnered with multiple Global Capability Centers (GCCs) in India to support regional enterprise transformation. The company's Cogentiq suite has already experienced strong adoption among domestic institutions.

Beyond commercial enterprise applications, Fractal has also engaged in societal impact initiatives utilizing artificial intelligence. The firm was selected under the IndiaAI Mission to develop a Large Reasoning Model (LRM) for India. Additionally, the company recently partnered with the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) to deploy AI-powered citizen health services using Vaidya.ai, described as India's first healthcare multimodal reasoning platform.

Srikanth Velamakanni, Co-founder, Group CEO, and Vice Chairman of Fractal, noted that the company has observed a significant rise in interest from Indian organizations seeking to transition beyond basic AI pilots toward scaled enterprise transformations. "This growing demand, combined with India's rapidly evolving AI ecosystem, makes this the right time for us to establish a dedicated India Business Unit," Velamakanni stated.

To lead this new division, Fractal has appointed Rishi Seth as Head of the India Business Unit. The division will operate as part of the company's APAC practice, which is overseen by Sandeep Dutta, Chief Practice Officer and Head of APAC.

Commenting on the appointment and regional strategy, Sandeep Dutta said, "Indian enterprises are at an inflection point in their AI journey. Organizations are looking for trusted partners who can deliver business outcomes at scale. Fractal brings together globally proven AI capabilities, innovative products/platforms and strong domain expertise to help Indian enterprises accelerate their business transformation."

Fractal Analytics Ltd., listed on the BSE (544700) and NSE (FRACTAL), provides AI services, solutions, and products to Fortune 500-sized enterprises. The company operates across three strategic pillars: AI-led Transformation (AIT), AI Foundations (AIF), and AI Work & Workforce (AIW), all of which are supported by the Cogentiq agentic AI platform.

With a global workforce exceeding 6,000 professionals spanning North America, EMEA, and Asia-Pacific, Fractal invests more than 6% of its revenue into AI research and development. Its portfolio includes proprietary models and products such as Vaidya.ai and PiEvolve, alongside incubated ventures such as Qure.ai, Asper.ai, and Analytics Vidhya.

"The establishment of a dedicated India Business Unit by Fractal highlights the maturing demand for enterprise-grade artificial intelligence within the domestic market. As large Indian corporations move past experimental AI pilots and look toward large-scale implementation, specialized local units can provide closer proximity and tailored domain expertise. This structural shift reflects a broader trend of global technology firms deepening their focus on India's enterprise landscape to capture long-term commercial value." — Dr. Shishir Gupta, Founder & CEO, StartupLanes
