Indian Fintechs Increase AI Use Amid Rising Data Centre and Technology Costs
Indian fintech companies like Paytm, Groww, and PB Fintech are increasingly integrating artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance sales, reduce lending risks, and automate operations. This adoption is driving up technology-related expenses, including data centre and cloud costs, with some firms reporting increases of over 50% in these areas during recent quarters. While these rising compute costs reflect broader industry trends and AI deployment, companies anticipate continued pressure on expenses over the next year, though margins remain largely unaffected so far.
