The company agreed but added that it has been building detailed maps of India since 1995. 

In their post, MapmyIndia shared that they have mapped the country down to house-number-level detail — something even global tech giants haven’t easily achieved.

The tweet also mentioned that, just as they have partnered with Zoho, MapmyIndia would love to collaborate with Perplexity AI too. With this, the company showed both confidence in their expertise and openness to future partnerships.

How MapmyIndia Built India’s Most Detailed Maps Since 1995

Before digital maps became common, MapmyIndia started creating detailed and accurate maps of India. The company has been mapping and updating the country for nearly three decades. 

In their tweet, they shared, “We’ve been building maps since 1995, down to house-number-level detail — something even global tech giants haven’t easily replicated.”

This hard work has helped MapmyIndia stand out as a true Indian tech leader. While many believed world-class maps could only come from global companies, MapmyIndia quietly proved otherwise. 

They have created a complete digital map system that serves people, businesses, and governments across the country.
