Public cloud spending continued to increase among enterprises, with the top two service providers holding more than 45 per cent of the Indian public cloud services market, the report noted.

India continues to be among the fastest-growing market for public cloud service providers due to the robust demand from large enterprises, digital natives, and also from small and medium businesses in the country.
