The milestone takes the combined number of Copilot licences across the three firms to over 300,000, more than double the 150,000 licences announced by Microsoft and the companies in December last year. The expansion highlights how large technology services firms are moving beyond AI pilots and integrating generative AI tools into day-to-day operations across engineering, delivery and corporate functions. ‘India is emerging as one of its fastest-growing AI markets in Asia’ Microsoft said India is emerging as one of its fastest-growing AI markets in Asia. The company reported 250% growth in Microsoft 365 Copilot seats during the latest quarter and a fourfold year-on-year increase in customers with deployments exceeding 50,000 seats. According to Microsoft, nearly half of Copilot usage is now focused on higher-order tasks such as analysis, problem-solving and content creation. The company also cited user surveys showing that 58% of employees are producing work they could not have delivered a year ago, rising to 80% among advanced users. The three IT majors reported measurable productivity gains from large-scale AI deployment. Infosys said it has embedded AI across delivery, engineering and corporate functions, with monthly active Copilot users increasing by more than 90%. At TCS, 86% of employees are using AI in their daily work.
