Why Data Centre Projects Get Delayed (and How to Avoid It)

Quick answer

Data centre projects in India are most often delayed by slow power connections, land-use conversion, title disputes, right-of-way for power lines and fibre, and environmental or airport clearances. Choosing land where these are already solved is the best way to stay on schedule.

Key takeaways

  • Power is the top delay
  • Title disputes can stop projects
  • Pick land with approvals in place

Top five delays

Power connection, land conversion, title disputes, right-of-way, and clearances.

How to avoid them

Front-load due diligence, get utility letters early and use conditional purchase agreements.
