New Delhi [India], February 17: Infosys and Anthropic have announced a strategic partnership that could alter how real businesses embrace AI beyond demos and hype. It is centered on plain truth: enterprise AI solutions that handle real work in the real world — regulated, messy, multi-step processes with audit trails and compliance built in.

This is not about chatbots spitting out answers. It is about AI agents that perform actions. Complex actions. Important actions across telecommunications, finance, manufacturing, and software development. These environments involve compliance rules, legacy systems, multiple handoffs, and the need for real operational value.

AI Solutions in the Enterprise Are Not Optional Anymore

Do you remember when “enterprise AI solutions” meant throwing a chatbot at customer service and calling it digital transformation? Those days are over. Businesses now want AI that executes workflows, troubleshoots compliance issues, accelerates software delivery, and keeps governance and transparency as non-negotiables.

What Infosys and Anthropic have signed up for is a calculated escalation. Infosys brings engineering scale and deep domain expertise. Anthropic brings its Claude models, Claude Code, and agent tooling that, until recently, lived mostly in buzzword territory. The aim is to merge these strengths into AI solutions that actually operate within real regulatory guardrails.

First Stop Telecom

The first battlefield for these enterprise AI solutions is telecommunications — one of the most complex, regulated, and legacy-heavy industries on the planet. Infosys and Anthropic are establishing an Anthropic Center of Excellence dedicated to building and deploying customized AI agents for network operations, customer lifecycle management, and service delivery.

Let’s be blunt. Network operations have been a manual nightmare grinding on for decades. If an AI agent can reliably handle ticketing, provisioning, and compliance checks without tripping over regulatory red tape, that alone is a major win. This is where the rubber meets the road. Any telco engineer will tell you that.

Enterprise AI Solutions for Regulated Industries

Infosys and Anthropic are not stopping at telecom. They are taking their AI agent playbook into other regulated sectors.

Financial Services

Here, the focus is on automating risk detection, compliance reporting, and even personalized interactions. Imagine AI agents scanning millions of compliance rules and years of client history without missing a beat or violating regulatory requirements. Banks and asset managers demand speed, precision, and auditability. These solutions are designed to deliver exactly that.

Engineering and Manufacturing

Product design and simulation are often constrained by long iteration cycles. Claude-powered AI agents are expected to accelerate simulations and R&D workflows, allowing engineers to spend more time on innovation and less on rework.

Software Development

With Claude Code already in use internally at Infosys, the goal is to automate not only code writing but also testing and debugging. The result is faster development cycles and more efficient delivery. That is not buzz. That is leverage.

What Makes This Real

This is the detail most press releases gloss over. These are not one-off AI demos. They are agentic systems designed to operate across entire business workflows, not simply respond to prompts. Showing AI completing a task in a video is one thing. Embedding it into systems with compliance, audit trails, error handling, and governance intact is something else entirely.

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has put it plainly: there is a real difference between AI that works in a demo and AI that works in a regulated industry. Infosys, with decades of enterprise and vertical experience, aims to bridge that gap.

Why India Matters

India is not just hosting this announcement. It is central to the story. It is home to Infosys and one of the world’s largest pools of engineering and developer talent. Claude usage in India already leans heavily toward production workloads such as system modernization and software delivery, not casual experimentation. India’s AI story is already unfolding in real environments.

Not Just Efficiency Transformation

Efficiency gains are useful. But what Infosys and Anthropic are really positioning is enterprise operating model transformation powered by AI. That means rethinking legacy processes, automating compliance-heavy tasks, and embedding intelligent automation deep into core business operations at scale.

If this approach succeeds at scale, it will not be incremental automation. It will be a redefinition of how large, complex industries operate with AI at the center.

The Real Test

Make no mistake. Delivering AI solutions that function in controlled environments is one thing. Deploying them into highly regulated, complex operations is another. The proof will be in execution — real deployments, measurable outcomes, compliance alignment, and tangible business impact. No pressure.

Even if a portion of this initiative delivers on its promise, it could mark a defining moment for Indian engineering and the real adoption of enterprise AI.

Its established execution capabilities, strong order book visibility, and technology-driven approach enable it to meaningfully participate in this infrastructure growth cycle while delivering long-term value to stakeholders.

Established in 2002, Markolines Pavement Technologies Limited is one of India’s leading highway operations and maintenance (O&M) and specialized infrastructure solution providers. With a strong focus on innovation and execution excellence, the company offers the most comprehensive suite of services in highway maintenance – spanning from Major Maintenance & Repairs (MMR), specialised maintenance services, and specialised construction activities.

The Company is in the process of resubmitting the merger application with BSE and NSE, after which the requisite regulatory and statutory approvals will be pursued as per the compliance timelines. With a pan-India presence and a dedicated team of professionals, Markolines remains committed to enhancing the quality, safety, and sustainability of India’s road infrastructure.

Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], February 17: Happy Pet, India’s first pet technology company, has raised a strategic investment from Dr. Devi Shetty, Founder and Chairman of Narayana Health, along with his family. The investment signals strong confidence in Happy Pet’s vision to modernize India’s fragmented pet care ecosystem using technology, data, and design-led solutions.

As pet ownership rises and pet wellness becomes a priority, Happy Pet is building a unified digital ecosystem that connects pet parents, pet businesses, and industry stakeholders on a single platform.

The company’s consumer portal serves as a central discovery platform for pet services, products, and industry information. Its pet parent mobile app allows users to manage medical records, set reminders, access nutritionist approved recipes, book services, arrange nearby store deliveries, and interact with an integrated AI chatbot for everyday support.

Extending its commitment to holistic care, Happy Pet offers India’s most affordable pet insurance starting at just ₹3 per day*. With veterinary costs on the rise and pet insurance still largely overlooked, the initiative helps pet parents stay financially prepared.

On the enterprise side, Happy Pet Tech delivers a purpose-built SaaS platform designed specifically for the pet care industry, offering tools for bookings, billing, inventory management, CRM, and customer communication through a comprehensive business management suite. The company’s tech solutions are already used across India, Europe, the UAE, and Southeast Asia, highlighting strong global demand.

“Technology has the power to raise care standards when applied with empathy and purpose,” said Dr. Devi Shetty. “Pet care is at the beginning of a major digital shift, and Happy Pet is well positioned to lead this transformation with its thoughtful, user-centric approach.”

This partnership builds on a long-standing relationship between Dr. Shetty and Happy Pet Founder Anil Reddy, who previously founded Lollypop Design Studio, a global design firm in which Dr. Shetty had also invested and mentored the team through international scale.

The opportunity in the pet care sector is significant and rapidly expanding. The global pet care market is valued between USD 273 and 320 billion in 2025 and continues to expand across regions. The U.S. market alone is estimated at USD 150 to 186 billion. In India, the market is valued at approximately USD 3.7 to 3.8 billion in 2025 and is projected to grow to USD 4 to 5 billion by 2026, driven by rising pet ownership, premiumization trends, and increasing adoption of technology enabled services.

With the new investment, Happy Pet plans to strengthen its presence across India, accelerate user acquisition and retention, expand its global SaaS footprint, and launch new technology initiatives focused on pet wellness. “With strong market momentum and the guidance of partners like Dr. Shetty, we believe pet technology in India is entering a defining phase,” said Anil. “Happy Pet is committed to building a connected, reliable, and scalable ecosystem for the future of pet care.”

Report Highlights Stepped Up Engagement in India

New Delhi [India], February 17: The PCI Security Standards Council (PCI SSC), the global body that sets payment card security standards, has sharpened its focus on India and South Asia as the region’s digital payments ecosystem continues to scale rapidly, according to its first-ever annual report released this week.

The report highlights broader representation in governance, with a record 64-member global Board of Advisors for the 2025-2027 term, aimed at increasing geographical and market diversity. The PCI Security Standards Council highlights the launch of the India-South Asia Regional Engagement Board (REB) in August 2025, marking a significant step in localizing global payment security standards for one of the world’s fastest-growing payments markets.

Indian and South Asian firms now have a more direct channel into how future PCI standards are drafted and revised. The newly formed India-South REB includes key Indian and regional players across banking, fintech, payments processing and technology, including NPCI, HDFC Bank, Google, Cred, Zeta, among others. The REB will advise PCI SSC on regional risks, implementation challenges and evolving fraud patterns unique to India and South Asia.

Gina Gobeyn, Executive Director of the PCI Security Standards Council said, “As payment technologies continue to evolve and transaction volumes grow, collaboration across the global payments’ ecosystem is more critical than ever. This first annual report reflects the collective effort of our Participating Organizations, partners, and stakeholders to advance payment security for businesses and consumers everywhere.”

India has emerged as a critical market for global payment security bodies due to the sheer scale of transactions flowing through digital rails such as UPI, cards, wallets and embedded payments.

“The PCI SSC 2025 Annual Report reflects an approach that is continually aligning with an increasingly complex payments landscape. The report brings more clarity through its product-family approach and stronger alignment across standards, guidance, and training. The Council’s expanded global engagement and new regional collaboration, reinforces the industry-led momentum needed to keep payment environments resilient as threats and technologies evolve,” said Aniket Bhosle, Partner, Technology Consulting Ernst & Young LLP.

“Active engagement from India, South Asia, and the Middle East, as highlighted in the PCI SSC Annual Report, demonstrates the power of community-driven collaboration in advancing payment security. I sincerely thank the payment industry stakeholders across these regions for their continued contribution and collaboration,” added Nitin Bhatnagar, Regional Director India, South Asia and Middle East.

The PCI SSC report flags a sharp rise in transaction volumes, speed and complexity globally. The pace of change in payments continues to accelerate, and threats evolve as emerging technologies, new payment devices and third-party integrations are expanding the attack surface for fraud and cybercrime.

For India, where mobile-led payments dominate, PCI Security Standards Council said 2025 saw heightened focus on mobile payment security, e-commerce safeguards and software security standards.

The PCI Security Standards Council introduced guidance on the use of artificial intelligence in payment environments, including principles for using AI in PCI assessments, a move that comes as Indian banks and fintechs increasingly deploy AI for fraud detection, underwriting and customer onboarding.

It also set up an E-commerce Guidance Task Force to align security standards with real-world implementation challenges faced by merchants and payment processors.

PCI Security Standards Council said it will continue expanding regional participation and training programs in emerging markets, including India, as it heads into its 20th anniversary year in 2026.
