Reliance Vizianagaram AI Data Centre is a data center project in Bhogapuram, India, operated by Reliance Industries. It is at the land and permitting stage. The operator has not published a capacity figure, and ArusGrid does not estimate one.
Latest change on record: moved to land and permitting on 20 May 2026. Record last checked against its sources on 20 October 2026.
Next gate to watch: Power arranged.
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.
Visakhapatnam holds 9 active projects with 2,148 MW of planned IT load between them, and Reliance Vizianagaram AI Data Centre has no published figure so it sits outside that ranking. Of those, 2 are under construction, 3 are at the land and permitting stage and 4 are announced only. No third party publishes a colocation vacancy rate for Visakhapatnam, and ArusGrid does not estimate one.
It is the only Reliance Industries project ArusGrid tracks. It sits on the Reliance Bhogapuram AIDC and CLS campus. 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 dated record runs from announced only on 20 May 2026 to at the land and permitting stage on 20 May 2026. The money on record is INR 108,010 as of May 2026, a government approval ceiling.
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 7 public sources for this project, the latest dated 24 August 2026, and last checked the record on 20 October 2026.
Construction or financing is evidenced, or several independent signals agree. The rules are fixed and published on the Methodology page.
Stated purpose is a giga-scale AI data centre per AP government order May 2026.
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.
An approval figure is an incentive ceiling. It often covers a first phase and can exclude land or IT equipment.
The figure covers the whole campus.
ArusGrid estimate, grade C. Published band for this country. Priced on the wholesale band. No usable capex for this site. Electricity unstated in the band. An estimate, never a quote, computed by fixed rules published on the Colo prices page and never counted in any total.
