Uday Kotak Urges India Inc to Invest in Future After Google's $80 Billion Raise
Uday Kotak, founder of Kotak Mahindra Bank, urged Indian companies to focus on long-term investments following Google's parent company Alphabet's announcement of an $80 billion capital raise to expand its artificial intelligence infrastructure. Kotak highlighted the vast scale gap between global tech giants and Indian firms, noting Google's profits and market capitalization nearly match those of all Indian listed companies combined. He called this a wake-up call for India Inc to prioritize future growth now that the IPL season has ended.
