1 of 8 dams here has no published capacity, so it is excluded from the total above rather than counted as zero.

Capacity is normalised to billion m³ per reporting agency: the register mixes BCM and MCM in the same column without declaring which. Full level is metres above sea level, as published.

Data belongs to the Government of India and is republished here under the terms of the source portals. Figures are shown exactly as published — never estimated, never filled in.
