Yotta's Greater Noida park is the most-quoted campus in North India and the least settled. Its capacity has been published as 200 MW, then 160 MW, then 250 MW, and in September 2026 as 350 MW — over the same twenty acres, without a second building being completed. Four years after the first building opened, the campus has actually delivered 28.8 MW. That is 11.5% of the figure currently in circulation. This record exists so that nobody who needs a number has to guess which one to use.

2One park, four capacities
| Source | Date | Capacity | Context |
|---|---|---|---|
| Economic Times | Oct 2020 | 200 MW | Initial announcement of the six-building park |
| Yotta official launch release | 31 Oct 2022 | 160 MW | The park as described on the day D1 opened: 30,000 racks, four fibre paths, 160 MW |
| Times of India, UP government release | Oct–Nov 2022 | 160 MW, elsewhere 250 MW | Same week, two figures |
| Moneycontrol | 31 Oct 2022 | 250 MW | "More than 250 MW of power" for 30,000 racks |
| Yotta colocation pages | 2025–2026 | more than 250 MW | Current operator description of the park |
| Yotta release on the Blackwell deployment | 18 Feb 2026 | scalable to 250 MW | Same week as the D2 announcement |
| Founder, Global Fintech Fest | 23 Sep 2026 | 350 MW | The Greater Noida park described as expandable to 350 MW |
None of them. This record carries no capacity of its own and adds nothing to the national total. The individual building figures — D1 at 28.8 MW — are what count, and they are counted once, under their own records.
If a single number is needed to describe the site, use 28.8 MW delivered. That is the only figure on this page that describes something that exists.
3What the park was promised to be
The 2021–22 vision was specific and is worth restating plainly, because the current marketing has drifted away from it.
Run the stated cadence forward from October 2022. One building every 18 months, five buildings remaining, puts the sixth at roughly mid-2030. Four years after the promise, one of the six is complete.
4What has actually been built
| Building | Stated capacity | Status | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| D1 | 28.8 MW | Live, since 31 Oct 2022 | Inaugurated by the chief minister. Operating |
| D2 | 60 MW | Under construction | Foundation stone Oct 2022. Targeted live Aug 2026; that date passed. Partner disclosures in Aug 2026 put overall progress at 33% against a 42% plan |
| D3 | Not published | Not built | Foundation stone 2022. A November 2024 project survey recorded construction not started |
| D4, D5, D6 | Not published | Not built | No construction evidence in any source reviewed |
On the evidence, the park has produced 28.8 MW in four years against a published claim of 250 MW. If the 160 MW figure from the launch release is used instead, it is 18%. Neither reading supports the language the site is marketed with.
Speed to first building. D1 went from construction start to inauguration in 20 months, which is genuinely fast, and it is the strongest fact in Yotta's favour.
The second building has now taken longer than the first did. That is the entire story of Indian data-centre delivery in one campus: the first building is a project, the fifth is an organisation.
5The rack-count problem
Here is an arithmetic problem that has not been publicly reconciled, and it matters to anyone sizing equipment.
| Figure | Value | Implied average |
|---|---|---|
| Park racks | 30,000 | — |
| Park capacity | 250 MW | 8.3 kW per rack |
| D1 alone | 5,000 racks, 28.8 MW | 5.8 kW per rack |
| D2 alone | 60 MW, liquid-cooled GPU halls | not consistent with 8.3 kW per rack at any plausible rack count |
The 30,000-rack figure and the 250 MW figure were both published in 2022, for a park of general-purpose colocation halls. Since then the campus has pivoted to 60 MW buildings filled with liquid-cooled GPU racks. GPU halls run at tens of kilowatts per rack, not eight. If D2's 60 MW is delivered at high density, the park cannot hold 30,000 racks at 250 MW — the rack count has to fall, or the megawatt figure has to rise.
That is almost certainly why the park figure moved to 350 MW in September 2026. The rack count stayed in the marketing and the capacity was raised to make the arithmetic work again.
The rack count is a 2022 number and should not be used for anything. Rack count is the wrong unit for an AI campus — megawatts and kilowatts per rack are the units that determine what gets ordered.
A park that cannot fix its rack count cannot fix its cooling load, its busway length, its switchgear count or its generator schedule.
6Money, four ways
| Figure | Value | Scope | Per MW of park capacity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Park construction, as announced | about ₹7,000 crore | Six buildings on 20 acres | ₹28 crore at 250 MW; ₹44 crore at 160 MW |
| State dashboard basis | ₹9,134.9 crore | Carried in Gridvik's registry for this record | Different scope, not directly comparable |
| State memorandum | ₹39,000 crore | Park plus IT equipment across UP, five to seven years | not a construction figure |
| Per building, with IT | about ₹6,500 crore | Company statement, per data centre | about ₹108 crore at 60 MW per building |
The number that gets quoted, ₹39,000 crore, is not a data-centre construction figure. It bundles buildings with servers and GPUs over five to seven years. The number that matters for the buildings alone is about ₹7,000 crore.
For scale: at ₹7,000 crore for 250 MW the park is being built at roughly ₹28 crore per MW, or about $3.2 million. Against its 160 MW description it is ₹44 crore per MW. Against the 350 MW figure now in circulation it is ₹20 crore. The same ₹7,000 crore produces a per-MW cost that varies by more than a factor of two, entirely depending on which capacity claim is used as the denominator. That is not a rounding issue. It is the difference between the cheapest and the most expensive build in the country.
7Why the park pivoted to GPUs
In February 2026 Yotta announced that 20,736 liquid-cooled Nvidia Blackwell Ultra GPUs would be deployed at the 60 MW D2 building, backed by more than $2 billion — about ₹17,700 crore — with Nvidia taking roughly half the capacity under a four-year DGX Cloud arrangement reported at about $1 billion. A Nasdaq-listed partner is supplying and financing part of the hardware through project-level structures.
| Park construction | One GPU deployment | |
|---|---|---|
| Capital | about ₹7,000 crore | more than ₹17,700 crore |
| What it buys | Six buildings and their power and cooling | About 20,700 GPUs plus networking and liquid cooling |
| Ratio | 1.0 | about 2.5 times |
The consequence is structural and it has not been absorbed by most of the market commentary. Yotta is no longer valued as a landlord. It has raised $150 million at about $3.9 billion, is targeting a valuation of up to $6 billion, and plans to file draft listing papers. Its reported FY25 revenue from operations was ₹890.72 crore with a profit after tax of ₹11.05 crore — a business that doubled revenue and saw profit fall. That is the profile of a company converting from rent to compute, and the data-centre park is now the shop floor rather than the product.
Building work on this campus will slow and equipment work will accelerate. A campus chasing GPU revenue does not need building six; it needs one hall of liquid-cooled capacity live sooner.
That is exactly what the September 2026 statement about single-storey, steel-framed, five-to-six-month buildings describes. It is also an admission that the six-building, multi-storey plan was the wrong shape for the demand that arrived.
