New Delhi, Sep 25
India's digital infrastructure is poised for a massive expansion, with the country's third-party data centre (DC) capacity expected to double to 2,400-2,500 megawatt (MW) by FY2028 -- up from 1,250 MW in FY2025, a report said on Thursday.
The expected growth would be driven by a robust investment pipeline of approximately Rs 90,000 crore over the next three years (FY2026-FY2028).
This near-term push is part of a much larger, long-term vision.
"Industry players have announced development plans totalling 3.0-3.5 GW to be built over the next 7-10 years, representing a colossal investment of Rs. 2.3-2.5 lakh crore, underscoring the sector's critical role in India's ongoing digital transformation," credit ratings agency ICRA said in its report.
