The build phase of the NBN has started in some areas of Howrah, while others are classified as not currently available with the comment that the NBN has not started in this area. So there is no information on when it is all likely to be completed. Since the change of goverment in September of 2013 the NBN website has been a lot less informative and they only provide details of where there is build preparation, where the build has commenced and where service is available via a shaded map. However, there is no detail in regard to dates of when the stages of the service are likely to be completed.
