The India AI Impact Summit 2026, held at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi from February 16–21, 2026, concluded with the adoption of the New Delhi Declaration on AI — endorsed by 92 countries and international organisations. India's globally-watched AI governance summit, with approximately 6 lakh in-person attendees and 9 lakh virtual viewers, positioned New Delhi as the global hub of inclusive AI governance.

Inspired by India's guiding principles of 'Sarvajan Hitaya, Sarvajan Sukhaya' (Welfare and Happiness for All) and 'Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam' (the world is one family), the Declaration affirmed that AI's benefits must be equitably shared across humanity, with particular attention to the Global South. Over USD 200 billion in AI-related investments were committed across infrastructure, foundation models, hardware, and applications. An additional 20,000 GPUs will be added to the 38,000+ GPUs already provisioned under the IndiaAI Mission, expanding India's sovereign AI compute infrastructure.

The New Delhi Frontier AI Impact Commitments were announced by 13 leading global and Indian frontier model developers including Google DeepMind, OpenAI, and Anthropic, pledging trustworthy and inclusive AI deployment. The Global AI Impact Commons — featuring 80+ impact stories across 30+ countries — was launched to enable nations to replicate successful AI use cases. An Equitable AI Transition Playbook was released in partnership with the International Labour Organization (ILO). For Rajasthan, the declaration's emphasis on AI in agriculture and public service delivery aligns with CM Bhajanlal Sharma's Digital Rajasthan and AI-for-governance initiatives.
