37 supercomputers with total computing power of 40 Petaflops deployed under NSM

Published: Dec 11, 2025

By TIOLCorplaws News Service

NEW DELHI, DEC 11, 2025: THE vision of Hon'ble Prime Minister is to achieve self-reliance in supercomputing. This is ensured by giving access to state-of-the-art supercomputing facilities to researchers (academia and startups) as well as ensuring the manufacturing of critical sub-components in India.

The National Supercomputing Mission (NSM) was launched in April 2015 with an outlay of Rs.4,500 crore.

It is jointly implemented by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) and the Department of Science and Technology (DST) through the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC), Pune and the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru.

Deployment and Utilization of Supercomputers

So far, 37 supercomputers with a total computing power of 40 Petaflops have been deployed under the NSM. In the last five years alone, 34 supercomputers have been deployed. State and Year-wise list of supercomputers deployed are attached at Annexure - I.

In addition, deployment of 6 new supercomputing systems is in progress with the total outlay of Rs. 680 Cr.

These systems are set up in leading institutions like IISc, IITs, C-DAC, R&D Labs and also in several Tier-II and Tier-III cities across the country.

PARAM Rudra

"PARAM Rudra" series of supercomputers are built using indigenously designed and manufactured High-Performance Computing "Rudra" servers, along with an indigenously developed system software stack.

These supercomputers are available to the young researchers, scientists and engineers for facilitating advanced studies in physics, earth sciences and cosmology.

The systems are being used efficiently, with most running at over 81% capacity and few exceeding 95%. These supercomputers have supported over 13,000 researchers, including more than 1,700 PhD scholars from over 260 academic and research institutions.

More than one crore compute jobs have been completed, and as a result over 1,500 research papers have been published in reputed journals.

Startups and MSMEs are also using these systems to boost their HPC-based projects.

These supercomputers are driving advanced research in drug discovery, disaster management, energy security, climate modelling, astronomy, computational chemistry, fluid dynamics, materials research, Aerospace Engineering and many other research areas.

Indigenous Development and Technological Achievements

Under the NSM, a complete ecosystem has been established with the focused goal of achieving self-reliance in supercomputing. It includes, inter alia, the design, development, and manufacturing of critical supercomputing sub-components, as follows:

1. The Rudra Server Board, a key supercomputing component, has been indigenously designed and developed by C-DAC. The technology of the Rudra server has been transferred to three Indian Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS) partners for manufacturing and such servers are already being manufactured in India.

2. High-speed inter communication network between computer nodes has been developed and tested with speeds of 40 Gbps and 100 Gbps to enhance data transfer and communication between computing nodes, strengthening India's supercomputing capabilities.

3. Further, cooling technology has been indigenously developed, demonstrated and is in the deployment stage.

4. Complete HPC system software stack is also developed and has been integrated with the supercomputing systems.

5. PARAM Shavak, a supercomputing-in-a-box has been designed, developed and manufactured in the country to cater to the HPC and AI compute need of the students, researchers from the engineering colleges and universities.

6. HPC applications of National Importance have been developed and deployed in various domains i.e. NSM Platform for Genomics and Drug Discovery, Flood Forecasting and Disaster Management, Urban Environment and Weather Modelling, Seismic Data Processing System for Oil & Gas, Material science along with the end users i.e. India Meteorological Department (IMD), Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC), Central Water Commission (CWC), Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB), Ministry of Ayush.

7. To further strengthening the indigenous capabilities, design and development of HPC processors, accelerators and storage has been initiated.
