Google to Label Verified Investment Apps in India

Alphabet Inc.’s Google will introduce verification labels for investment apps on its app store in India, aiming to help users identify legitimate platforms and avoid scams.

The initiative will allow only brokers and intermediaries registered with the Securities and Exchange Board of India to receive a verified badge. This is expected to make it easier for users to distinguish approved financial services from fraudulent apps impersonating them.

The move comes as authorities increase efforts to combat rising online investment scams, particularly those targeting retail users through mobile platforms. By tightening visibility and trust signals within the app ecosystem, regulators hope to reduce financial fraud and improve consumer protection.

The decision highlights growing collaboration between regulators and major technology platforms as digital finance expands and risks associated with unverified services increase.

Leadership expects strong growth in engineering and research-driven services to outpace traditional IT segments, supported by expanding infrastructure needs and technological convergence.

Reliance and Adani Boost India AI

India’s leading conglomerates Reliance and Adani are advancing major investments in artificial intelligence and data infrastructure, committing a combined total of around $210 billion.

Reliance plans to invest approximately $110 billion, while Adani has pledged $100 billion to expand AI-enabled data center capacity and related technologies.

The initiatives aim to strengthen India’s role in the global AI ecosystem by focusing on infrastructure development, particularly in data centers powered by renewable energy.

By aligning facilities with their own energy assets, both groups seek to reduce costs and improve operational efficiency.

India’s strategy reflects a growing emphasis on building digital capacity through large-scale infrastructure rather than semiconductor manufacturing.

The investment announcements come amid broader efforts to attract global technology partnerships and expand domestic capabilities in artificial intelligence.
