OpenAI has started hiring in India as it looks to expand its presence in the fast-growing South Asian tech market.

OpenAI is set to open a corporate office in the Indian capital of New Delhi in a few months, establishing a formal presence in a key growth market.

The ChatGPT maker said it has established a legal entity in India and started hiring a local team for the office, which will be based in New Delhi.

OpenAI’s\u00A0expansion to India is not the conclusion of a story but the beginning of a new chapter. It is a chapter where the world's largest democracy becomes a living laboratory for artificial intelligence.

Microsoft Corp. backed OpenAI will establish its first India office in New Delhi later this year, targeting its second-largest user market with localized operations and competitive pricing strategies.

OpenAI’s latest language model, GPT-5, may be more powerful and accurate than its predecessors, but the company has warned users not to treat ChatGPT as their main source of information.
