India internet infrastructure concentration risks

India relies on a high concentration of intercontinental internet cables at a single location near Mumbai. At least 13 of the country's 18 major subsea cables terminate within a six-kilometre radius of Versova beach. This geographic clustering creates a single point of failure for national connectivity. Damage to this specific coastal area could disrupt a significant portion of India's international data traffic. Monitoring for infrastructure diversification projects or government initiatives to land cables at alternative coastal sites.
