OpenAI is expanding its footprint in India, with plans to open new offices in Mumbai and Bengaluru later this year. The move builds on the company’s presence in New Delhi, where it set up an office last year.

The announcement comes as OpenAI CEO Sam Altman visits India to attend the AI Impact Summit 2026. Altman is scheduled to participate in the event being held at Bharat Mandapam.

Commenting on the expansion, Altman said India is emerging as a global leader in AI adoption, driven by strong local tech talent, growing optimism around AI’s potential and government support for the sector. He added that these factors position the country to play a key role in shaping how democratic AI is developed and deployed at scale.

Through its “OpenAI for India” initiative, the company aims to build infrastructure, develop skills and strengthen local partnerships to support AI development tailored for India.
