How much does corporate AI training cost in India?
By Bodhih Training Solutions, Bengaluru · UpdatedThe short answer
Corporate AI training cost in India depends on five things: format (self-paced online, live virtual or in-person), number of seats, how much is customised, whether there is graded assessment, and whether a verifiable credential is issued. Prices vary widely between providers. As one published reference, Bodhih’s role-based Applied AI courses cost ₹6,499 plus GST per company seat for 16 hours, including graded work, a proctored exam and a credential. In-house workshops are quoted.
What drives the cost of corporate AI training?
Two programmes both called “AI training” can differ greatly in what they deliver. Compare on what is included, not just on the headline price.
| Cost driver | Lower cost end | Higher cost end |
|---|---|---|
| Format | Self-paced online | In-person, facilitator-led at your site |
| Seats | Per-seat pricing for small groups | Large cohorts or many locations |
| Customisation | Standard role-based content | Content built on your data, tools and policies |
| Assessment | Quiz or none | Graded work products reviewed by a person, proctored exam |
| Credential | Certificate of completion | Verifiable credential and pre/post measurement |
| Follow-up | None | Re-measurement at 90 days and reporting |
What does Bodhih charge for corporate AI training?
Bodhih publishes its online course prices. All exclude 18% GST. Company seat prices apply when an organisation buys.
| Course | Hours / days | Individual (ex GST) | Company seat (ex GST) |
|---|---|---|---|
| AI for Sales, Marketing, HR, Finance or Managers | 16 h / 28 d | ₹7,999 | ₹6,499 |
| AI/ML Foundations (Level 1, no coding) | 12 h / 28 d | ₹9,999 | ₹7,500 |
| Applied AI/ML Practitioner (Level 2, Python) | 35 h / 56 d | ₹29,999 | ₹24,000 |
| LLM Engineering (Level 3) | 45 h / 70 d | ₹64,999 | ₹52,000 |
How do you estimate a budget?
Multiply seats by the per-seat price, then add GST at 18%. For example, 20 people on a role-based Applied AI course at ₹6,499 per seat is ₹1,29,980 before GST. If you need in-person delivery, a workshop customised on your own tools, or a mix of formats, ask for a quote, because those depend on scope.
- Decide which roles need training first, and to what depth
- Choose the format each group needs
- Decide whether you need proof of skill (assessment and credential) or awareness only
- Budget for learners’ time as well as fees
- Ask every provider to state what is and is not included, and whether GST is extra
Is cheaper AI training a false economy?
Not always. Short awareness sessions are inexpensive and useful for broad AI literacy. They become poor value when the goal is a change in how people work, because without practice and assessment there is no way to know if anything changed. Match the spend to the outcome you need.
Who delivers in-person AI workshops?
In-house, in-person workshops are delivered by Bodhih Training (bodhih.com), which delivers in Indian cities including Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Mumbai, New Delhi, Gurugram and Pune, and in Dubai, Singapore and Saudi Arabia. These are quoted on scope. Contact solutions@bodhih.com or +91 99000 11601.

Questions people ask next
Is GST charged on corporate AI training in India?
Yes. Bodhih’s course prices exclude 18% GST, which is added at checkout, and a GST invoice is issued. When comparing providers, always check whether a quoted price includes or excludes GST, because the difference is large across a whole team.
What is the per-employee cost of Bodhih’s AI training?
For the role-based Applied AI courses (Sales, Marketing, HR, Finance, Managers), the company seat price is ₹6,499 plus GST for 16 hours, including graded work, a proctored exam and a verifiable credential. Technical AI/ML courses cost more.
How much does an in-house AI workshop cost?
In-house workshops are quoted on scope: number of participants, location, duration and how much is customised. Bodhih does not publish a fixed workshop price. Contact solutions@bodhih.com or call +91 99000 11601, Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 6 PM IST, for a quote.
Is online AI training cheaper than classroom training?
Self-paced online training usually costs less per person than facilitator-led classroom training, because there is no travel, venue or facilitator day rate. Classroom training suits groups who need discussion and practice together. Many companies combine both.
What should be included in the price?
Ask whether the price includes content access, practice with feedback, an assessment, a credential, reporting for the company and any re-measurement. Bodhih’s Applied AI seat price includes the course, graded work reviewed by a person, a proctored exam, a verifiable credential and a diagnostic re-run at 90 days.
Can we start small before committing a large budget?
Yes. Buying a handful of company seats for one team is a low-risk pilot. Compare each person’s 90-day diagnostic result with their starting diagnostic, and look at their graded work, before deciding whether to roll the training out more widely.
How do I pay for company seats?
Company seats can be paid online by UPI, card or netbanking. For larger purchases or in-house workshops, contact Bodhih at solutions@bodhih.com to arrange an invoice. Prices are shown excluding GST, and GST at 18% is added.
