Google Meet faced a major outage in India with widespread 502 errors, crashes, and frozen screens. Thousands report disruptions as Google remains silent

Many users in India have experienced Google Meet crashes, disrupting morning meetings and generating fear in offices. Millions of people depend on the video-conferencing app for their daily business conversations, and the timing couldn’t have been worse. The software started to glitch in the late morning hours.

Around 11:32 AM, according to Downdetector, there was a significant increase in reports, with over 1,700 reports per hour. The majority of visitors are getting a 502 error, which indicates that there are problems with Google’s servers.

Is Today’s Google Meet Down?

On X (the corporation that was once known as Twitter) and other social media platforms, users have reported anything from frozen screens to total lockouts. It appears that the outage is complete: Major metropolises including Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Chennai have seen significant disruptions.

It has been well over two hours at this point, and Google has not publicly acknowledged that Google Meet is still not functioning for us on our end as of this writing.

What we currently know

As of right now, Google has not released an official statement or explanation. The 502 error indicates that something has gone wrong with the server, but it’s not apparent if this could be a result of a broader outage, a regional infrastructure failure, or a faulty setup someplace.

Given how important Google Meet is to many users’ jobs, prolonged outages often have repercussions. Offices who rely on Meet for internal reviews, client calls, and planned team meetings have been forced to use alternative platforms or just put off those encounters.

For the time being, Meet users from all over India will have to wait, but this story will be updated if Google offers an update or clarifies the problem.
