In this paper the authors present ongoing research on Sanskrit Text-to-Speech (TTS) system called ‘Samvachak’ at Special Centre for Sanskrit Studies, JNU. No TTS for Sanskrit has been developed so far. After reviewing the related research work, the paper focuses on the development of different modules of TTS System and possible challenges. The research for the TTS can be divided into two categories – TTS independent linguistic study, TTS related Research and Development (R&D).
