Are Indian Enterprises Paying Full Price for a Half-Built AI Product?

The multilingual AI your enterprise is running was trained on a corpus where Hindi accounts for a fraction of what English does.

It tokenizes Indian language queries at roughly twice the cost. It underperforms on benchmarks specifically designed for Indic languages. And the contract you signed almost certainly does not address India’s data protection requirements the way your legal team thinks it does.

This article helps with a structural reality of how global AI models are built and who they are built for.

Our latest analysis examines the language performance gap, the tokenization cost disadvantage, and the regulatory blind spots that most Indian enterprise AI deployments are carrying right now.

NervNow™ is proud to announce this week’s AI Human of the Week: Prasanna Rao, Co-founder & CEO,

For generations, the Indian farmer has carried a weight that the harvest alone was never meant to bear. By the time the grain is ready, the debts are already overdue, and so it gets sold immediately, at whatever price the market offers, because waiting has always been someone else’s privilege.

Prasanna Rao walked away from a successful banking career because he understood this problem from the inside, and believed it was solvable. Arya.ag stores grain close to farms, lends against it at fair rates, and uses AI to assess quality, track crop health through satellite data, and disburse loans almost instantly, so that a farmer in rural India can finally decide when to sell, and to whom, on their own terms.

Over 850,000 farmers across 60% of India’s districts, $3 billion in grain stored annually, $1.5 billion in loans facilitated every year, with a bad loan rate below 0.5%.

The world needs more people who use their expertise not to climb higher, but to reach further. People who look at a broken system and see a responsibility rather than someone else’s problem. Prasanna Rao is one of those rare humans, and his work is a reminder of what technology looks like when it is built with genuine purpose.

D-Mart’s Q3 FY2026 results surprised analysts on the upside: 20.2% EBITDA growth, margin expansion to 8.1%, and PAT up 18.3% year on year.

The absence of an AI strategy is not what is hurting D-Mart today, and the numbers make that clear. What the numbers do not show is that every AI system, for personalization, demand forecasting, or customer retention, runs on structured, identity-linked first-party data, and D-Mart has no loyalty program and has never disclosed a customer data strategy in any of its filings or management commentary.

NervNow™’s latest C-Suite Brief examines what that means for Indian retail’s most profitable operator.
