Turiyam AI, C-DAC Achieve Breakthrough with Fully Indigenous AI Stack Deployment
Turiyam integrated its inference-first compute platform with C-DAC’s Rudra 1 and Rudra 2 servers.
Bengaluru-based deeptech startup Turiyam AI, focused on specialised artificial intelligence compute solutions, has successfully deployed its inference engine on an indigenous server architecture at the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC) in Pune.
The deployment brings together an entirely Indian-developed AI software and hardware stack, integrating models and inference capabilities within a single, locally built compute environment.
As part of the initiative, Turiyam integrated its inference-first compute platform with C-DAC’s Rudra 1 and Rudra 2 servers, enabling optimised execution of advanced AI workloads.
During validation, a large language model designed for Hindi and its 37 dialects was successfully run on Turiyam’s inference engine within C-DAC’s high-performance computing infrastructure.
The achievement demonstrates a complete end-to-end AI execution pipeline built and operated entirely in India.
“This milestone proves that India can build and execute across the full AI stack, from model to inference engine and advanced compute platforms. By validating performance within C-DAC’s environment, we are demonstrating that advanced AI workloads can run on domestically engineered systems without compromise,” Sanchayan Sinha, Turiyam AI Cofounder and CEO, said.
“C-DAC continues to work closely with industry, academia and research partners to strengthen India’s advanced computing ecosystem. The validation of advanced AI workloads on indigenous computing infrastructure reflects the growing maturity of India’s research and innovation ecosystem,” Shri E Magesh, C-DAC Director General, added.
C-DAC operates under the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology and leads national efforts in high-performance computing and AI.
Turiyam AI, founded by Sanchayan Sinha, Parag Jain and Praveen Jain, last month, raised $4 million (₹36 crore) in a pre-seed round led by Ankur Capital and Micelio Fund.
The startup will use the funds to accelerate product development, grow its team, expand R&D, and support early enterprise and data centre deployments in India and global markets.
