India leads in AI skilling boom, even as concerns around job automation persist.

Bengaluru: India is seeing the largest amount of artificial intelligence (AI) skilling in India, according to Coursera’s managing director for India and Asia Pacific, Raghav Gupta. “We’ve seen a lot of good momentum, whether it’s an individual coming to learn or its companies saying we want to invest in this space,” he said while speaking in a panel discussion at the Mint AI Summit 2025.

Gupta alongside Adecco Group’s India country manager Sunil Chemmankotil, RPA2AI Research chief executive officer Kashyap Kompella, and upGrad Enterprise president Neeraj Gera were part of a panel discussion at the summit on whether AI will take away jobs.
