India now has 900 million monthly internet users and 750 million daily active users, with digital infrastructure and payments already in place. Against that backdrop, a consumer AI team in India reportedly reached a ₹100 crore revenue run rate in just six months, with a 6-person team, 15% PAT, and strong retention.
The post frames this as evidence that large-scale consumer AI businesses can now be built in India much faster than would have been imaginable a few years ago.
