Source-first

Every row links to the underlying ministry, regulator, or operator publication. No fabricated numbers, ever.

As-of dated

Construction status changes monthly. Each dataset records its snapshot date so you know how fresh a number is.

Comparable, not ranked

Tables sort and scale visually so you can compare states or cities directly without an editorial layer in between.

Data provenance

Source
MoHUA, MoRTH, CEA, AAI, and system-operator publications
Snapshot
Each sub-domain carries its own as-of date; see the dataset page for that domain's exact date.
Coverage
28 metro systems, National Highways across 35 states/UTs, installed power capacity across 32 states/UTs, and 133 commercial-service airports.
Limitations
Snapshots from monthly portals can drift a few weeks; under-construction kilometres reflect civil-works status, not commissioning dates.
