Yotta Shakti Cloud, in short

What stood out when we read the documents: strengths, weaknesses, who it suits, and what we could not find.

Strengths

Largest published Indian H100 fleet: '8,000+ H100 GPUs' and NVIDIA Cloud Partner status (shakticloud.ai home)
All capacity hosted in India (Navi Mumbai, Greater Noida) with DPDP Act and data residency positioning, relevant for Indian regulated buyers
Long-term bare metal terms down to 279 INR (2.91 USD) per B200 GPU-hour on a 5-year term and 253 INR (2.64 USD) per H100 GPU-hour on a 2-year term
Ingress and egress included on all GPU products; BlueField-3 DPU included on bare metal
Broad stack: fractional H100 AI Lab workstations (10/20/40 GB slices), VMs, bare metal, SLURM/Kubernetes, serverless GPUs, token-priced AI Endpoints, Azure ML on Shakti
Data center certifications published: Uptime Tier IV (NM1), ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS, RBI, MeitY

Weaknesses

On-demand H100 SXM VM at 356 INR/h (3.71 USD per GPU-hour) and L40S at 137 INR/h (1.43 USD); on-demand only for VMs up to 4 GPUs
Prices in INR only; no USD price list
Bare metal, clusters and AI Lab are term subscriptions (1 month minimum); several mandatory add-ons (InfiniBand 16,060 INR/GPU/month, NVAIE 7,300 INR/GPU, management platform fees 4.5 to 11.25 lakh INR/month) for bare-metal-first procurement
Inconsistent public prices: 1x H100 serverless is 7.13 INR/min on the pricing page and 6.75 INR/min on the product page; B300 prices only in hidden HTML
No published SLA percentage, status page, CLI, SDK or Terraform provider; payment methods not listed
Only 4 GPU models (H100, L40S, B200, B300); no consumer RTX, A100, H200 or AMD

Ideal for

Indian enterprises, government and BFSI buyers that need in-country data residency and Indian certifications
Indian AI labs committing to multi-month or multi-year H100/B200 bare metal or SLURM capacity
Universities running shared, fractional H100 lab environments (AI Lab)

Not published

Payment methods: docs only say the checkout page offers 'various payment options'
cards, UPI, wire and crypto not listed

registration page (account.yotta.com) did not render in a headless browser
Whether prices include GST (18%) is not stated
SLA percentage for Shakti Cloud GPU services not published (serverless page says 'SLA-backed' without a figure)
Stopped-instance billing, minimum deposit and billing granularity of on-demand VMs (per hour vs per minute) not published
Serverless 'Spot' interruption behaviour not described
H100 variant for AI Lab, serverless and Azure ML rows not stated (VMs and bare metal are SXM)
B200 and B300 per-GPU memory not stated on the pricing page
CLI, SDK, Terraform, SSH access and templates not documented
docs.shakticloud.ai served an invalid TLS certificate on 2026-09-29 (read with certificate check disabled)
Founding year and funding not read on an official page

Observations

Pricing page is public, no account required; all prices in INR with Indian digit grouping (e.g. 1,96,113)

Term prices (3/6/12-month VMs, 6-month to 5-year bare metal) sit behind a dropdown; only the first term shows by default

B300 bare metal row shows no price in the default view; 1 to 5 year prices exist only in the page HTML

Taxes (GST) are not mentioned next to prices

An AI assistant (VED) states its prices are indicative and not formal quotations
