#BTDavos2026 | Sanjeev Krishan, Chairperson, PwC In India On Infra, Skilling And India’s AI Roadmap

At BT Davos 2026, PwC India Chairperson Sanjeev Krishan tells Siddharth Zarabi that infrastructure spending—especially urban infrastructure—offers the highest growth multiplier for India. He underlines the importance of better logistics, urban capacity, and higher female workforce participation to boost GDP. Krishan also flags skilling and education reform as urgent priorities, citing data that shows over half of Indian graduates are not job-ready. On AI, he argues India should focus less on building its own LLMs and more on embedding AI into existing enterprise, manufacturing, services, and agriculture systems to drive efficiency, innovation, and scalable growth.
