Reservoir Levels and Water Flow Data Across India
IN · Published Oct 25, 2026
• The latest data on major reservoirs in India reveals varying water levels and storage capacities as of 25 October
• Mettur Reservoir is at 54.56 feet with a storage of 20,805 M.Cft., while Krishna Raja Sagar stands at 101.96 feet with 24,384 M.Cft. Kabini Reservoir is at 50.3 feet with 11,344 M.Cft., and Bhavanisagar is at 64.55 feet with 8,819 M.Cft. Other reservoirs such as Amaravathi, Periyar, and Vaigai also show significant variations in water levels and storage compared to last year. Inflow and outflow rates differ across reservoirs, with Bhavanisagar recording the highest inflow at 11,160 CuSecs.

Impact & Risks

The current reservoir levels indicate potential water management challenges in various regions of India. Lower water levels in reservoirs like Amaravathi and Vaigai could impact irrigation and drinking water supplies, especially in areas dependent on these sources. Conversely, high inflow rates in reservoirs such as Bhavanisagar may require careful monitoring to prevent overflow or flooding in downstream areas. These variations could affect agricultural activities and water availability for domestic and industrial use.
