IndiaAI Mission Adjusts Plans Amid GPU Supply Delays and Rising Costs
The IndiaAI Mission faces delays and cost pressures due to a sharp rise in GPU and memory prices, with current access to 30,000 GPUs against a commitment of 45,000. Several firms have struggled to deliver capacity amid market challenges. The IT ministry plans to issue fresh bids, press companies to fulfill pledges, and acquire 3,000 GPUs through C-DAC to support startups and researchers. The government is recalibrating its strategy to build and contract compute capacity under the Rs 10,372 crore mission launched in March 2024.
