Data centre giant targets AI and cloud infrastructure expansion across multiple Indian states by 2030.
AirTrunk has announced plans to invest more than INR 3,000 billion (US$30 billion) in India by 2030, positioning the country as a key pillar of its global growth strategy and one of its most significant long-term investment markets.
The proposed investment programme, backed by Blackstone and Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPPIB), is expected to rank among the largest digital infrastructure initiatives currently under consideration in India.
The investment is aimed at supporting the next phase of cloud computing and artificial intelligence (AI) growth across the country.
AirTrunk said its planned development pipeline, spanning multiple states and union territories, would strengthen India’s ambition to become a leading global destination for AI and cloud infrastructure investment.
The company expects the initiative to generate substantial economic activity, create jobs and accelerate the growth of India’s technology ecosystem.
The announcement follows AirTrunk Founder and Chief Executive Officer Robin Khuda’s first senior government engagement programme in India since the company entered the market through the acquisition of Lumina CloudInfra in April.
The acquisition added an existing development pipeline of 600MW across Mumbai, Chennai and Hyderabad.
