Summary
Tata Communications
cdn transit content infrastructure
BITGRAVITY is operated by Tata Communications, following the acquisition of BitGravity, Inc.
What it's used for
- The address space carries content delivery and network infrastructure, evidenced by reverse DNS entries such as
unknown.sin1.bitgravity.com,unknown.nrt1.bitgravity.com,unknown.mia1.bitgravity.com,unknown.del1.bitgravity.com, andunknown.cdg1.bitgravity.com. - The AS announces 12,288 IPv4 addresses and 26 IPv6 prefixes, with 13 observed neighbours, indicating a role focused on content delivery and transit rather than residential access.
- Traffic from this AS consists of web/API endpoints and media delivery infrastructure, supporting global content distribution for enterprise and consumer services.
Notable
- Registrants include BitGravity, Inc. and Tata Communications Limited, with netnames such as
BITGRAVITY,BITGRAVITY-TATAC2,BITGRAVITY-VSNL2,BITGRAVITY-TATAC, andTATACOMM-IN, reflecting the integration of BitGravity into Tata Communications. - Tata Communications acquired BitGravity, a United States-based content delivery network provider, after previously investing US$11.5 million in the company in 2008.
- The address inventory includes blocks originally allocated to Tata Communications (e.g.,
120.29.196.0/22,121.244.74.0/23) and BitGravity (e.g.,64.86.232.0/23,64.185.166.0/23), showing a mixed estate of inherited and acquired space.

Classification and threat
Hosting Datacenter or cloud provider. Addresses are servers, not people.
Spamhaus DROP
Not on ASN-DROP The network as a whole is not listed.
No DROP prefixes None of its announced space is on the DROP prefix list.
Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 431 networks and 1,768 prefixes, as published 2026-10-12. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
FBI IC3
No IC3 indicators Nothing from the FBI IC3 feed.
IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
