BharatGPT Launches Second‑Generation Sovereign AI Model Backed by Reliance and HDFC Bank

BharatGPT is a generative AI platform built by CoRover.ai that targets Indian languages, offering APIs for text generation, translation and summarization, and is positioned as a home‑grown large language model for local developers and enterprises.

BharatGPT‑2 is the second version released as a sovereign AI model, trained on more than 500 billion tokens of multilingual Indian data, and promoted as reducing dependence on foreign AI services while supporting government data‑privacy goals.

HDFC Bank has placed an undisclosed investment in CoRover.ai, the creator of BharatGPT, joining a broader push by Indian financial institutions to back domestic AI startups and signaling confidence in the platform’s commercial potential.

Reliance Industries is connected through its Hanooman AI venture, described as a Reliance‑backed LLM giant that plans to host BharatGPT services on its cloud infrastructure, aiming to broaden AI access across Indian markets and enterprises.
