GRIDVIK GRIDVIK MAPPING INDIA'S DATA CENTRE GRID MONDAY 12 OCT 2026

Review window: 28 Sep – 11 Oct · Deduplicated vs 5 & 11 Oct

1 status-triggered addition.
1 date fix. 3 backfills outside window.

Research-only, append-only addendum. Original 48 rows → 5 Oct 52 → 11 Oct 58 → this proposed copy: 62 rows. Only one row was triggered by an October development.

IN-WINDOW ADDITION PRJ-059 — Reliance Bhogapuram–Polipalli 1.5 GW

Not a new October launch. Proposal first reported 28 Apr 2026 (ET). What’s new is 3–7 Oct land status:

• 3 Oct The Hindu: ~50 acres held / ~800 to go
• 4 Oct The Hindu (Collector): 25 of ~855 acres held / ~830 to acquire
• 7 Oct Deccan Chronicle: renewed protest, memo to tahsildar

We keep announcement_date = 28 Apr, October status in notes. Capacity 1,500 MW basis unstated, ₹1.08 lakh cr per G.O. 30 (not DC-only). Announced, no ground-breaking. Confidence 2/3. Keep separate from PRJ-002 Digital Connexion — no parcel crosswalk, do not sum.

CORRECTION PRJ-056 — CoreWeave on Taloja 240 MW → 6 Oct

Official CoreWeave newsroom is 6 Oct 2026, Business Wire syndication is 7 Oct 08:00 EDT, DCD 7 Oct says “yesterday Oct 6”. No capacity change — still 3×80 MW tenant deployment, mid-2028 first phase, optional +240 MW excluded. Tenant, not extra on top of PRJ-005/009. Confidence 3/3.
