The Government of India has selected Sarvam AI under the IndiaAI Mission to develop India’s sovereign Large Language Model (LLM) as part of the effort to create indigenous AI capabilities.
Announcing the development, Sarvam AI said, “Building India's sovereign model from the ground up is a crucial step toward Atmanirbhar Bharat.” The model will be designed to be fluent in Indian languages, optimised for voice, capable of reasoning, and ready for secure, population-scale deployment.
AIM has consistently highlighted Sarvam AI’s key role in shaping India’s AI landscape and its vision to develop indigenous AI solutions tailored to the Indian context, often referring to it as the “OpenAI of India.”
