AI training for IT and BPO companies in India
Square1 Ai trains IT services and BPM teams in India to deliver with AI: engineers, QA, delivery managers, pre-sales and contact-centre staff. Live online on Zoom on India time from ₹6,599 a person, with in-person days on request, and exercises built on your own delivery work.
One published price for every team, no team discount. Plus tax where it applies.
India’s IT and BPM firms are retraining at scale.
NASSCOM counts more than 20 lakh employees upskilled in AI. Mid-size firms have to keep pace without a training academy of their own.
Working inside AI delivery platforms
Infosys reported 400+ GenAI projects in FY25 and over 270,000 staff trained to be AI-aware. Engineers at every firm now design, review and test work that AI drafts.
Agent assist and AI-scored calls
HGS’s Agent X covers agent assist, automated quality assurance and conversational AI. Team leaders move from sampling calls to reviewing what the AI scored.
Designing agentic workflows
Firstsource launched an Agentic AI Studio in March 2025 that breaks a process into tasks done by AI agents. Specialists learn to design the steps, monitor them and handle the exceptions.
Getting pilots into production
NASSCOM’s 2025 review found only 10 to 15% of enterprise GenAI proofs of concept move to full production. Architects learn to scope pilots that can ship.
Client data, the DPDP Rules and funded courses
There is no sector regulator for IT and BPM, but three things shape AI training in an Indian services firm.
- The DPDP Rules 2025: notice, consent, security safeguards and breach notification apply from 13 May 2027
- Each client’s own AI and data terms decide which tools your teams may use on that client’s work
- FutureSkills PRIME, run by NASSCOM with MeitY, lists 500+ courses for individuals; check its terms for which courses qualify for its fee incentive

Four ways Indian companies train a team in AI.
Each one fits a different need. Larger companies often run two side by side.
- Route 1
An executive programme at an IIT or IIM
Fits when a manager needs a long programme and a certificate from an institute name.
Watch for six months of weekends for one person at a time, from ₹1,30,000 each before GST.
- Route 2
An enterprise training company
Fits when you need hundreds of people through a catalogue, with a learning-platform report for HR.
Watch for prices are on request, and a self-paced catalogue is hard to tie to work actually done.
- Route 3
Vendor courses for the tools you already use
Fits when your company is standardising on Microsoft 365 Copilot, Google Gemini or AWS and wants people trained on that tool.
Watch for a vendor course teaches the tool, not your workflow; non-technical teams usually need both.
- Route 4
A team trained and measured together (Square1 Ai)
Fits when you want every person placed by a test, taught live, graded on real work and measured again at week 12.
Watch for it takes a few hours a week from each person, and the results depend on them doing the work.
AI training for IT and BPO companies in India: your questions.
How much does AI training cost for an IT or BPM team in India?
Live online courses are ₹6,599 a person for a team of five or more. A four-week Sprint that builds one AI workflow with your team is ₹2,19,999, and twelve weeks of Train + build is ₹6,49,999. In-person days are ₹43,999 a day on request, plus travel. Prices are plus tax where it applies.
Which teams should train first?
The ones whose hours AI changes first: engineers and QA, contact-centre agents and team leaders, process specialists, and the pre-sales and delivery people who price the work. The readiness test places each person, so an engineer and a team leader do not sit the same course.
How is this different from FutureSkills PRIME?
FutureSkills PRIME is a NASSCOM and MeitY platform of 500+ courses that individuals take. We teach a whole team live, with an instructor, on your own delivery work, and Nova grades every exercise. Many firms can use both.
Can you train engineers and non-technical staff in the same company?
Yes. Engineers take the build courses, such as AI agents and integration, and everyone else takes AI at work and no-code automation. Both are live online on India time, at ₹6,599 a person.
Does the training cover the DPDP Act?
Yes, as it applies to AI tools that touch personal data. The DPDP Rules 2025 were notified in November 2025, and the core duties apply from 13 May 2027. Whether they cover a given client contract is a question for your counsel. The training is not legal advice.
What does a Sprint build for an IT or BPM firm?
One workflow your team picks, built with your people inside your own accounts over four weeks: for example triaging support tickets, drafting test cases from requirements, or scoring call quality against your own checklist. It ends with a pilot and a 30-question test, and the fee of ₹2,19,999 counts toward Train + build if you continue within 30 days.
What time are the live online sessions?
Live online sessions run on India Standard Time in your working hours. In-person days are arranged on request at the same day rate of ₹43,999 for up to 20 people, with travel quoted on top before you book.
