This project is built or running, so every gate counts as passed.
Build odds is ArusGrid's reading of the public record, not a forecast, a rating or advice. It counts the gates this project has passed in public sources. Private progress does not show, a passed gate can be undone, and projects that pass every gate still stop. The method has not yet been tested against outcomes. How it works.
How India approves, powers and taxes data centers is on Data center rules in India.
Kolkata holds 4 active projects with 135 MW of planned IT load between them, and NTT Kolkata 1 campus ranks second by planned capacity. Of those, 3 are operational and 1 is under construction. Published colocation vacancy in Kolkata was 17% as of June 2025. Vacancy excludes hyperscaler self-build.
NTT has 6 others in India tracked by ArusGrid, including NTT Navi Mumbai 2 (NAV2), NTT Navi Mumbai 1 (NAV1) campus and NTT Bengaluru 4 campus. It sits on the NTT Kolkata (Bengal Silicon Valley) campus. Named funding comes from NTT DATA on the equity side. No user of the capacity is on the public record as of 2026-10-02, after a check of operator, landlord, contractor, regulator and lender documents. Most colocation leases are confidential, so this says nothing about occupancy.
The build is phased. Phase 1 at 6 MW is operational with a 2024 target; Two inaugurated buildings at 40 MW is operational with a 2025 target. The dated record runs from under construction in February 2023 to operational on 10 February 2025.
The US export control position for advanced AI chips in India, as of 27 September 2026, is recorded as “No US destination-based licence requirement as enforced”. ArusGrid holds 6 public sources for this project, the latest dated 2 October 2026, and last checked the record on 22 October 2026.
Running capacity. The site is operational or expanding. The rules are fixed and published on the Methodology page.
No public signal either way.
This country carries no US destination-based licence requirement for advanced AI chips as the rules are enforced today. Access is a commercial matter between the project and its vendors. Criteria are published on the Methodology page.

Checked on 2026-10-02. No user of this capacity is on the public record. ArusGrid read the operator's releases, the landlord's and contractors' exchange filings, regulator and lender documents and interconnection records. Most colocation leases are confidential, so this says nothing about occupancy.
No figure has been announced. This range is 25 MW of planned IT load times a published benchmark of US$6.64 per watt for Mumbai, plus or minus 15 percent. It covers the building and its mechanical and electrical plant. It excludes land, grid works, servers and fees.
Benchmark: Turner & Townsend Data Centre Construction Cost Index 2025, as reported by Data Storage Asia. An estimate is never added to any total on the site.
