LTM to upgrade India’s tax analytics platform with Nvidia AI
BlueVerse platform to drive real-time insights and digital governance
MUMBAI: LTM, formerly LTIMindtree and awaiting shareholder approval for its name change, has teamed up with Nvidia to modernise India’s national tax analytics platform, backing the government’s seven-year Insight 2.0 mandate.
The collaboration will support the Central Board of Direct Taxes in overhauling tax administration through scalable artificial intelligence and advanced analytics. Under the programme, LTM will deploy a secure cloud environment powered by Nvidia’s AI infrastructure to enable real-time insights and simplified data workloads.
At the heart of the initiative is LTM’s proprietary BlueVerse platform, which will act as the intelligence layer across the tax system. The platform is designed to integrate AI across operations, powering features such as a smart citizen portal, automated campaign management, enhanced case workflows and AI-driven helpdesk support.
The overhaul aims to strengthen governance, curb revenue leakages, improve compliance and deliver a smoother experience for taxpayers: a long-standing pain point in India’s tax administration.
“This collaboration brings together Nvidia’s AI capabilities and our BlueVerse platform to build a transparent, resilient and citizen-friendly tax system at scale,” said LTM chief delivery officer Gururaj Deshpande.
Nvidia vice-president of data centre GPU business Yogesh Agrawal, said accelerated computing and full-stack AI are unlocking new efficiencies for public-sector modernisation. “The integration enables secure, high-performance and scalable digital governance for a programme of national importance,” he said.
For LTM, the project reinforces its push to position itself as a partner in large-scale digital governance, as governments increasingly turn to AI-led platforms to modernise public services.
