The acquisition brings under Krutrim's umbrella a platform that has played a central role in accelerating the deployment of AI solutions across a range of government initiatives, spanning education, agriculture and governance. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

With the acquisition, Krutrim plans to integrate its proprietary large language models, cloud infrastructure and agentic AI capabilities—including those behind its recently launched assistant app, Kruti—to expand BharatSah'Al'yak's reach nationwide.

“At Krutrim, we have boarded the country's brightest minds to develop a platform that reflects the diversity, depth and richness of Indian languages and culture,” said a Krutrim spokesperson. “This integration enhances our ability to build AI that is inclusive, intuitive and deeply rooted in the lived realities of India.”
