India's Tech Sector Surges with Strategic Reset in Q3 2025

India's technology sector witnessed a notable surge in the third quarter of 2025, with total deals reaching USD 1.48 billion, signaling a strategic shift from volume-driven to value-focused investments. This pivot was marked by heightened interest in AI, SaaS, and enterprise automation, as detailed in a report by Grant Thornton Bharat.

The data revealed a sharp increase in high-value deals, with transactions exceeding USD 50 million quadrupling in volume and growing more than fivefold in value compared to the previous quarter. The Indian tech landscape recorded 80 deals, up 33% from the prior quarter, as investors sought scalable, platform-oriented technologies amid changing macroeconomic conditions.

Significant mergers and acquisitions drove the quarter's activity, with key strategic plays by companies like Altimetriks and Brilyant IT Solutions. Meanwhile, international traction was evident through KPIT Technologies' stake in the Swiss firm N-Dream AG and Covasant Technologies' US mergers. Sustainable growth was further emphasized by early and mid-stage investments along with selective cross-border M&A.
