Tech leaders debate whether the Anthropic episode is a wake-up call for India’s AI ambitions.

Alt Carbon said the agreement followed more than a year of scientific review and due diligence, with Microsoft requiring additional verification and data-sharing measures.

The partnership will see TCS creating a business unit focused on deploying Anthropic's AI models to its customers.

The decision comes as India emerges as the world’s largest GCC market.

The 168-megawatt facility will support Meta's global AI computing needs and can be expanded over time.
