As India moves toward 2026, its technology sector is entering a phase where scale, accountability and outcomes matter more than momentum alone, according to industry leaders.

Sindhu Gangadharan, Managing Director, SAP Labs India, and Chairperson, Nasscom, said the industry has built strong foundations across artificial intelligence (AI), cloud, cybersecurity and digital platforms, supported by deep talent and a mature ecosystem of startups, global capability centres (GCCs) and global enterprises.

“The next chapter is about converting capability into sustained business and societal impact. AI adoption is becoming sharper and more grounded in real use cases. Enterprises are asking clearer questions around productivity, resilience and trust,” she said.
