TaxSrishti AI is an advanced, AI-driven tax intelligence and compliance LLM platform purpose-built for India’s complex tax ecosystem. It empowers professionals and enterprises to interpret intricate tax, GST, and TDS matters through specialised generative AI models engineered for domain precision. By anchoring its architecture in verified statutory knowledge, the platform delivers context-aware, technically sound outputs that meet professional standards of accuracy.
Designed for chartered accountants, tax consultants, legal practitioners, and corporate tax teams, TaxSrishti AI streamlines research, compliance management, and documentation workflows. It integrates real-time regulatory updates while ensuring secure handling of sensitive financial and client data. Unlike generic conversational AI tools, it prioritises validated tax intelligence and structured reasoning. As a result, users can make faster, defensible, and more reliable decisions.
Positioned as the first indigenous large language model dedicated to Indian taxation, TaxSrishti AI focuses on contextual statutory interpretation rather than broad, non-specialised responses. Its mission is clear: to serve as a trusted, expert-grade platform that simplifies compliance complexity and elevates productivity across tax practice.
In an exclusive conversation with The Interview World at the World Futures Forum, organised by India SME Forum in partnership with WeDO, CA Harshit Bansal, Founder, and Aditya Singhal, Co-founder of TaxSrishti AI, outline the platform’s core capabilities. They explain the foundation of its “first indigenous LLM” positioning, detail its LLM architecture and data strategy, and share insights into its SME subscriber base. They also discuss forthcoming innovations and articulate their long-term strategic vision. What follows are the key insights from this in-depth discussion.
Q: Could you elaborate on the core features of TaxSrishti AI, and clarify the basis on which it is positioned as the first indigenous large language model (LLM) purpose-built for tax compliance?
A: We developed a proprietary large language model anchored in a comprehensive legal and regulatory repository. Through this platform, we deliver structured, end-to-end solutions to MSMEs, tax professionals, and legal practitioners across the taxation and compliance ecosystem. Our system supports the entire workflow, from statutory research to drafting formal responses, thereby eliminating fragmentation and inefficiency.
Consider a common scenario. A business receives a notice from the Income Tax Department, the GST authorities, or the Ministry of Corporate Affairs. It must respond with technical accuracy and within prescribed timelines. Traditionally, this requires engaging a chartered accountant or tax professional, often at significant cost. However, a large segment of SMEs operates under financial constraints and cannot consistently afford professional fees. At the same time, ad hoc advice or non-specialised assistance frequently fails to deliver context-specific, defensible responses.
We built this platform to address that gap. It provides structured guidance, legally grounded interpretations, and draft-ready outputs that enable businesses to respond confidently and compliantly. In doing so, it reduces operating costs while strengthening regulatory preparedness.
Our model is subscription-based and deliberately priced for accessibility. At ₹4,999 per annum, subscribers gain access to an integrated repository covering Income Tax laws, GST statutes, FEMA regulations, Company Law, and relevant case law. The objective is straightforward: democratise high-quality tax intelligence and make it affordable for SMEs at scale.
While several entities claim to offer indigenous LLM solutions in this domain, our platform is built on a dedicated, domain-specific legal corpus and a purpose-trained architecture. We refrain from comparative assertions; however, based on our research and technological design, we are confident in positioning our system as India’s first specialised LLM focused exclusively on taxation and regulatory compliance.
Q: Many countries are prioritizing sovereign AI frameworks to ensure data residency and regulatory compliance within national borders. Is your AI ecosystem and underlying LLM architecture designed to support sovereign deployment models?
A: At present, we host the majority of our infrastructure on AWS, with primary servers located in San Diego. We adopted this architecture during our early-stage growth because providers such as AWS and Contabo Bay offer enterprise-grade security, resilience, and operational reliability. Consequently, this setup enables us to maintain high availability and robust data protection standards from the outset.
However, we are actively evaluating options to migrate hosting to India. Data localisation remains a strategic priority, and from a technical standpoint, we are fully capable of deploying and operating our large language model on domestic infrastructure. The transition is therefore a matter of infrastructure optimisation and long-term alignment, not technical limitation.
Importantly, all customer data resides within our secured Virtual Private Cloud (VPC). This architecture ensures strict access control, network isolation, and compliance with established security protocols.
Q: How many SMEs are currently subscribed to your platform?
A: We currently serve approximately 30 SMEs, reflecting strong early traction. We launched the platform at the end of November 2025, and within just a few months, by February, we onboarded 30 enterprise users. This pace of adoption validates both market demand and product relevance.
Importantly, these SMEs actively use the platform across its full range of offerings. They rely on it for research, compliance guidance, and drafting support. Their continued engagement and positive feedback affirm the platform’s practical utility and solution accuracy at this early stage of growth.
Q: What product innovations or capability enhancements are you planning to introduce over the next few years to build on your existing platform?
A: At present, the platform is highly intuitive for tax professionals, who are accustomed to framing structured queries and interpreting technical outputs. However, we recognise that many SME users do not always understand their precise compliance position. Nor do they necessarily know how to formulate effective prompts or anticipate the type of response required. As a result, professionals navigate the system with greater ease, while SMEs may require additional guidance.
To address this gap, we are developing automated, workflow-driven modules tailored specifically for SMEs. These workflows will allow users to upload relevant information and receive structured, end-to-end outputs without needing to craft detailed prompts. In effect, the system will guide them through the process, reduce ambiguity, and automate key compliance tasks.
Accordingly, our immediate focus is to expand these embedded workflows. The objective is clear: simplify user interaction, minimise cognitive load, and make advanced tax intelligence accessible even to non-technical business owners.
Q: Where do you envision TaxSrishti AI over the next five to ten years?
A: Our vision is unequivocal: to build India’s leading AI engine dedicated exclusively to tax compliance. We aim to establish the country’s own GPT-grade platform in this domain, engineered, governed, and operated domestically. Accordingly, we are committed to technological sovereignty and long-term self-reliance, without structural dependence on foreign systems.
Compliance and data governance form the foundation of this strategy. When we state that we are deeply compliant, we mean that our architecture, data policies, and infrastructure roadmap align with India’s regulatory expectations and data localisation priorities. Hosting and storing data within domestic data centres is therefore not incidental; it is a deliberate strategic choice. By anchoring our infrastructure in India, we strengthen data security, enhance regulatory alignment, and reinforce national digital capability. That commitment defines our market position and underpins our long-term mission.
