NxtQuantum Shift Technologies has officially launched NxtQuantum OS, marking a significant leap in India’s digital self-reliance. The first smartphones to run on NxtQuantum OS will be the upcoming AI+ Nova 5G and AI+ Nova Pulse, scheduled for 8th July 2025 at 12:30 PM IST, exclusively sold on Flipkart.com. AI+ Smartphone has already confirmed its first lineup of smartphones to arrive in India, with the AI+ Pulse to start from ₹5,000.
Developed entirely within the country, the mobile operating system aims to redefine data privacy, security, and control in the Indian tech ecosystem. The OS has been designed with a core mission: to offer complete data ownership to users, eliminate unauthorized tracking, and ensure compliance with Indian regulatory standards.
Key Features of NxtQuantum OS

The project is supported by Google Cloud India, with SashiKumar Sreedharan, MD, Google Cloud India, noting that the initiative aligns with Google’s mission to offer secure and scalable digital infrastructure tailored for Indian needs.
Madhav Sheth, Founder & CEO of NxtQuantum Shift Technologies, described the OS as a “statement of intent” – reinforcing India’s ambition to build tech solutions rooted in trust, transparency, and technological independence. “We are putting control back in the hands of users. This is about owning your data, your device, and your digital experience,” said Sheth.
Commenting on the launch, Madhav Sheth said, “We’ve moved beyond treating privacy as a setting. NxtQuantum OS was designed from first principles – your phone should work for you, not against you. What you do on your device stays with you. Not even we can access it. That’s the level of trust and control this ecosystem will establish. And with Google Cloud’s secure and scalable infrastructure, we’re demonstrating that world-class privacy and national data governance can go hand in hand.”
