OpenAI to Introduce Advertisements on ChatGPT in India

OpenAI announced it will begin displaying advertisements on its ChatGPT Free and Go subscription tiers in India, following a change in its terms of service earlier this month.

The company will launch an ad manager next month for marketers, requiring a daily minimum budget of ₹725, and has partnered with agencies WPP and Omnicom to serve ads for 50 brands.

OpenAI reported revenue of $6.7 billion for the second quarter ended June 2026, up from $5.7 billion in the previous quarter, as it seeks to increase revenue ahead of a potential IPO.
