A Visionary Ecosystem of Technology and Innovation

Spanning a built-up area of around 53,000 square meters, the project is envisioned as a self-contained ecosystem of high-performance infrastructure, sustainability, and digital excellence.

  • Striking Technical Towers
  • A Training Centre with integrated hostel facilities
  • Residential and Non-Residential Buildings for staff
  • A Recreation Zone
  • A Smart Reception and Security Node

This multi-purpose development will not only support C-DOT’s expanding operational and R&D needs but will also serve as a hub for digital innovation and institutional growth.

NBCC to Lead as Project Management Consultant (PMC)

NBCC will oversee the entire project lifecycle as the Project Management Consultant (PMC). The role includes master planning, design, execution, supervision, and ensuring all statutory approvals are obtained. NBCC’s appointment followed a competitive bidding and negotiation process, reaffirming its stature as India’s premier project execution authority.

The project has a completion timeline of 36 months, subject to regulatory clearances and environmental nods.

A Beacon for Digital India & Atmanirbhar Bharat

The architectural design of the Technical Block and Data Centre is set to become a landmark element, possibly featuring a lit-up C-DOT logo visible in the Delhi skyline — a powerful symbol of India’s digital aspirations.

Future-ready in its approach, the infrastructure will incorporate:

  • Green building standards
  • Energy-efficient technologies
  • Intelligent layouts and modular spaces
  • Potential vertical expansion capabilities
  • A skywalk connecting to existing campus structures

Together, NBCC and C-DOT are giving form to the Digital India and Atmanirbhar Bharat vision through infrastructure that fuses engineering precision, tech ambition, and nation-building ethos.

Leadership Speaks

C-DOT has always stood at the forefront of India’s telecom R&D. With this new-age infrastructure, we are reinforcing our commitment to innovation and national service,” said Dr. Rajkumar Upadhyay, CEO, C-DOT.

NBCC is proud to be associated with a project of such national significance. We aim to deliver an iconic facility that reflects India’s tech renaissance,” said Mr. Pradeep Sharma, ED (BD), NBCC.
