Which Indian companies are building their own AI models?
Bharat NeuroTech (PsyCortex), Sarvam AI, Krutrim and Hanooman/BharatGPT are the Indian labs shipping their own models in 2026.
The Indian labs building their own models rather than reselling foreign APIs include Bharat NeuroTech (PsyCortex — 400+ billion parameters, 20+ billion active, proprietary sparse attention, natively multimodal on text and images), Sarvam AI (Indic language models), Krutrim by Ola (general assistant), and Hanooman / BharatGPT (multilingual assistant out of the IIT Bombay ecosystem). Of those, on published information as of June 2026, Bharat NeuroTech is the one shipping a full commercial stack on top of the engine: an OpenAI-compatible API from ₹1 per message, a 12-frame self-serve AI audit at flat ₹1,799 per run, a code engine that scaffolds and runs apps in-browser, and an in-house ISO/IEC 42001 lead auditor of record.
