India must urgently develop its own frontier-scale AI models to avoid becoming a passive consumer and to shape global technology rules, according to Sarvam AI co-founder Pratyush Kumar. The company is preparing to train a trillion-parameter AI model, emphasizing the need for strategic capability and ownership of foundational models to capture economic value and prevent repeating past technological revolution mistakes.

Sarvam AI has launched two new AI models, Sarvam 30B and Sarvam 105B, as open-source. These models were developed from scratch in India, trained on local data, and utilize IndiaAI Mission computing power. They are designed for speed and complex tasks respectively, supporting all 22 Indian languages and voice interactions. These models show strong performance on various benchmarks.

A lean team of 15 researchers, many in their twenties, at Sarvam successfully built a 105-billion-parameter foundational LLM from scratch. Spearheaded by Rahul Aralikatte, the young team managed data engineering, pre-training, and safety guardrails, showcasing India's emerging AI talent. Sarvam, a full-stack GenAI company, aims to build technology for India's specific needs.

Sarvam, an Indian AI startup, has launched its Indus chat app. This app is designed for Indian languages and users. It enters a competitive generative AI market. Google CEO Sundar Pichai praised Sarvam's work on local AI models. The Indus app is available on web and mobile platforms. It uses Sarvam's 105B large language model.

Bengaluru-based Sarvam AI has unveiled Sarvam Kaze, its AI-powered smart glasses designed and built in India. Showcased at the India AI Impact Summit 2026, these glasses aim to cater to Indian languages and use cases, differentiating themselves from English-centric competitors.

Indian startup Sarvam has launched a 105-billion-parameter large language model, performing on par with global counterparts and outperforming others on Indian language benchmarks. This homegrown AI model, developed with government support, signifies India's capability to build state-of-the-art AI from scratch, targeting commercial applications.

Sarvam, an Indian AI company, has been chosen by the Indian government to develop a sovereign Large Language Model (LLM) as part of the IndiaAI Mission. This initiative aims to create an indigenous AI model fluent in Indian languages, capable of reasoning, and optimized for large-scale deployment.

Bengaluru-based Sarvam AI is making significant strides in India's AI landscape, developing foundational models tailored for Indian languages. Their OCR tool, Sarvam Vision, leads benchmarks, while Bulbul V3 offers natural-sounding text-to-speech across multiple Indian languages, proving competitive and affordable against global players.

Sridhar Vembu highlights Sarvam AI's achievement in developing world-class AI affordably and sustainably with lower energy and compute needs. He believes software code generation can adopt more efficient AI techniques, crucial as the planet cannot sustain current AI energy demands. This approach balances performance with environmental responsibility amid growing concerns.
