Qwen3 235B 2507· Sarvam 30B

Quick Verdict

Pick Sarvam 30B if you want the stronger benchmark profile. Qwen3 235B 2507 only becomes the better choice if you need the larger 128K context window or you would rather avoid the extra latency and token burn of a reasoning model.

Sarvam 30B finishes one point ahead overall, 48 to 47. That is enough to call, but not enough to treat as a blowout. This matchup comes down to a few meaningful edges rather than one model dominating the board.

Sarvam 30B's sharpest advantage is in mathematics, where it averages 86.5 against 55.7. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is HumanEval, 31% to 92.1%.

Sarvam 30B is the reasoning model in the pair, while Qwen3 235B 2507 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. Qwen3 235B 2507 gives you the larger context window at 128K, compared with 64K for Sarvam 30B.

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.
