Nvidia is making two big moves at once — and both are worth watching.
NVIDIA Corporation, NVDA
The first: a deep push into India’s national AI infrastructure. The second: a return to the consumer PC market with new system-on-a-chip processors. Together, they sketch out where Nvidia’s growth could come from once the first wave of U.S. cloud buildouts matures.
India’s government has committed over $1 billion to its IndiaAI Mission. The goal is to run most of the country’s AI workloads on Indian-controlled infrastructure — not foreign clouds.
Nvidia is at the center of that plan.
The company is supplying GPU systems to Indian cloud providers Yotta, L&T, and E2E Networks. Yotta alone has committed $2 billion to deploy over 20,000 Nvidia Blackwell Ultra GPUs at its Greater Noida campus, which will house one of Asia’s largest Nvidia DGX Cloud clusters.
L&T is building gigawatt-scale sovereign AI factory infrastructure in Chennai and Mumbai. E2E Networks is adding further compute capacity under India’s national cloud program.
India’s Sovereign AI Push
Nvidia isn’t just selling hardware here. The company is working with Indian agencies on sovereign language models tailored to local languages, regulations, and policy priorities.
Its Nemotron-Personas-India dataset contains 21 million synthetic Indic personas drawn from public census data — built to support population-scale AI development.
Government-backed initiative BharatGen has built a 17-billion-parameter model targeting agriculture, public services, and cultural preservation. The National Payments Corporation of India is also exploring Nvidia-based models for its UPI financial network.
More than 4,000 Indian AI startups have joined Nvidia’s Inception program, which offers discounted hardware, training, and go-to-market support. India is on track to cross 100,000 GPUs by end of 2026, roughly tripling current capacity.
Back in the PC Game
On the consumer side, Nvidia is re-entering the laptop market with a new system-on-a-chip design. PCs with the new chip are expected from Dell and Lenovo in the first half of this year.
Nvidia has two chip collaborations in play. One is with Intel, integrating Intel CPUs with Nvidia graphics and AI technology. The other is with Taiwan’s MediaTek, using Arm architecture — the same approach used in most smartphones.
CEO Jensen Huang has pointed to the roughly 150 million laptops sold annually as reason enough to compete in the space. He called the chip “low power but very powerful.”
The target is thinner, lighter laptops with long battery life — a direct challenge to Apple’s MacBook lineup running on its own in-house chips.
One risk: the Arm architecture has frustrated gamers before. When Microsoft launched AI PCs using Qualcomm’s Arm-based chips in 2024, many users found compatibility issues with popular games. Nvidia will need to clear that bar.
Analysts say pricing will matter too. Digitimes deputy director Jason Tsai said the chips need to keep PC prices in the $1,000–$1,500 range, or the product risks staying niche.
Nvidia’s PC processors have previously powered the Nintendo Switch and early Microsoft Surface tablets. The company is now betting it can make that technology mainstream again.
The first PCs with Nvidia’s MediaTek chip could arrive in the first half of 2026.
