Sarvam AI
Bengaluru-based startup selected by the Indian government's IndiaAI Mission to build the country's sovereign large language model ecosystem, funded with GPU access from the Mission's compute pillar. Sarvam released Sarvam-105B in February 2026 — India's first fully domestically-trained, open-source 105-billion-parameter LLM — alongside a 32B mixture-of-experts model, both trained across 22 Indian languages. In June 2026 Sarvam raised $234 million in the first close of a $300 million Series B at a $1.5 billion valuation, with HCLTech and Bessemer Venture Partners joining existing investors Khosla Ventures and Peak XV Partners.
