New Delhi, April 26, 2025: The Government of India, under the IndiaAI Mission, has selected Sarvam to build India's sovereign Large Language Model (LLM).
In a first-of-its-kind initiative, Sarvam will receive dedicated compute resources to build an indigenous foundational model from scratch.
Capable of reasoning, designed for voice, and fluent in Indian languages, the model will be ready for secure, population-scale deployment.
Building India's sovereign model from the ground up is a significant step toward Atmanirbhar Bharat.
The sovereign model will be built, deployed, and optimized in India, using local infrastructure and developed by a new generation of Indian talent.
This initiative aims to promote strategic autonomy, accelerate domestic innovation, and secure India's leadership in AI for the long term.
Sarvam, a pioneering Indian artificial intelligence company, is on a mission to build the bedrock of Sovereign AI for India and make GenAI a reality for Bharat.
Sarvam has already demonstrated proven capability in developing foundational models proficient in Indian languages.
