### 🚧 Closed / sovereign programs without public checkpoints

* **Hanooman — SML India, Seetha.ai, IIT Bombay:** Multilingual suite (22 Indic + 10 global languages); enterprise deployments, no Hugging Face release.
* **Bhashini / AIRAWAT LLM — MeitY, C-DAC:** National language mission building sovereign inference infrastructure; models gated within the NLTM stack.
* **Krutrim — Ola / Krutrim SI Designs:** Full-stack AI platform with proprietary pretraining on Indian corpora; checkpoints not open-sourced.
* **Dhruva — NVIDIA, C-DAC, MeitY:** AIRAWAT-backed compute cluster enabling large-scale sovereign model training rather than a single public LLM.
* **Kosmos India (AIRAWAT) — NIC, C-DAC Pune:** Multimodal research initiative (text + vision) currently limited to internal partners.
* **BharatGPT — Reliance Jio, IIT Bombay:** In-development enterprise LLM suite; benchmarks and weights remain undisclosed.
