365telugu.com online news,Hyderabad, August 20, 2025: HDFC Bank, one of India’s leading private sector banks, has announced its strategic investment in CoRover, a premier conversational AI company and the creator of BharatGPT — India’s first sovereign, enterprise-grade Large Language Model (LLM).
CoRover, which serves over 1 billion users and is trusted by more than 25,000 enterprises and developers, specializes in developing conversational AI agents, AI Assistants (VideoBot, VoiceBot, ChatBot), and Telephony AI solutions. These solutions leverage BharatGPT, a multilingual, multimodal, and domain-adaptable LLM designed entirely in India to meet the country’s diverse linguistic and enterprise requirements.
Arup Rakshit, Group Head Treasury at HDFC Bank, commented, “The development of BharatGPT, capable of exchanging information in multiple Indian languages for a country as diverse as ours, distinguishes CoRover. We value their expertise in addressing vernacular needs and are proud to support the IndiaAI Startups Global Accelerator Programme through this partnership.”
Ankush Sabharwal, Founder & CEO of CoRover, said, “We are honoured by HDFC Bank’s trust and support, along with that of other investors, as we scale BharatGPT’s reach and impact. This partnership reflects a shared commitment to building AI that is sovereign, secure, inclusive, and capable of driving critical applications across India.”
CoRover credits government initiatives such as the IndiaAI Mission for enabling opportunities like the IndiaAI Startups Global Accelerator Programme, an international collaboration with Station F, Paris, and HEC Paris.
CoRover’s platform allows enterprises to deploy intelligent conversational AI agents quickly across voice, video, and chat, utilizing BharatGPT’s advanced language understanding, dialectal diversity, and contextual precision.
The recent launch of BharatGPT Mini enables AI functionality on low-end devices without internet connectivity, expanding accessibility in infrastructure-limited regions and supporting Telephony AI solutions across India.
