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.

Where it sits

Mumbai metro holds 32 active projects with 2,694 MW of planned IT load between them, and NTT Navi Mumbai 1 (NAV1) campus ranks 9th by planned capacity. Of those, 4 are operational, 5 are operational and expanding, 11 are under construction, 6 are at the land and permitting stage and 6 are announced only. Published colocation vacancy in Mumbai metro was 6.6% 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 Bengaluru 4 campus and NTT Noida 2 campus. It sits on the NTT NAV1 Mahape campus. Named funding comes from NTT DATA on the equity side. No user of the capacity is on the public record as of 2026-10-01, 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. NAV1A at 30 MW is operational with a 2022 target; NAV1B at 30 MW is under construction with a 2025 target; NAV1C at 40 MW is under construction with a 2025 target. The dated record runs from under construction in 2020 to operational and expanding on 20 March 2025. Power comes from NTT (own solar and wind-solar plants) (reported, unconfirmed). Cooling uses immersion cooling.

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 4 public sources for this project, the latest dated 20 March 2025, and last checked the record on 22 October 2026.

Who uses the compute

Checked on 2026-10-01. 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.

Money at this site

ArusGrid estimate, building costabout US$567m to US$767m

No figure has been announced. This range is 100 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.

Colocation price per kW of IT load per month

ArusGrid estimate, grade CINR 6,800 to INR 8,900 (about USD 81 to 106)
