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

NCR holds 12 active projects with 1,055 MW of planned IT load between them, and Yotta D1 ranks 9th by planned capacity. Of those, 4 are operational, 2 are operational and expanding, 2 are under construction and 4 are announced only. Published colocation vacancy in NCR was 44% as of June 2025. Vacancy excludes hyperscaler self-build.

Yotta has 4 others in India tracked by ArusGrid, including Yotta D4, Yotta NM2 and Yotta D2. It sits on the Yotta Greater Noida Data Center Park alongside Yotta D2. Named funding comes from Hiranandani Group 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 dated record runs from under construction in January 2021 to operational on 31 October 2022. The money on record is INR 15bn (about US$183m) as of October 2022, the announced investment. Cooling uses hybrid air and liquid cooling, with a design PUE of 1.4.

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 10 public sources for this project, the latest dated 27 September 2026, and last checked the record on 22 October 2026.

AI workloads

StatusLikely

GPU-cloud operator (Shakti Cloud). Yotta says 10,000+ GPUs are in production across its sites (Feb 2026) but does not split them by building; the bulk of the H100 fleet is publicly tied to Navi Mumbai NM1.
