Gemini 1.5 Pro· Sarvam 105B

Quick Verdict

Pick Sarvam 105B if you want the stronger benchmark profile. Gemini 1.5 Pro only becomes the better choice if agentic is the priority or you need the larger 2M context window.

Sarvam 105B is clearly ahead on the aggregate, 60 to 50. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.

Sarvam 105B's sharpest advantage is in coding, where it averages 45 against 16.5. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is SWE-bench Verified, 5% to 45%. Gemini 1.5 Pro does hit back in agentic, so the answer changes if that is the part of the workload you care about most.

Sarvam 105B is the reasoning model in the pair, while Gemini 1.5 Pro is not. That usually helps on harder chain-of-thought-heavy tests, but it can also mean more latency and more token spend in real use. Gemini 1.5 Pro gives you the larger context window at 2M, compared with 128K for Sarvam 105B.

Decision framing

BenchLM keeps the benchmark table and the operator tradeoffs on the same page so a better score does not hide a materially slower, pricier, or smaller-context model.

Runtime metrics show N/A when BenchLM does not have a sourced snapshot for that exact model. The scoring rules and freshness policy are documented on the methodology page.
