ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IS no longer a future concept in India.
It is already shaping how businesses operate, how services are delivered, and how decisions are made. Cloud adoption is rising, global technology companies are investing in data centres, and the country is now home to more than 1,300 AI companies. The data centre sector has expanded 2.5 times in the past five years and attracted over $60 billion in investment since 2019, signalling strong market confidence.Yet momentum alone does not eliminate structural gaps. India has only around 150 operational data centres, compared to more than 11,000 worldwide, with around 90% of capacity concentrated in four metro regions — Mumbai, Chennai, Bengaluru and Delhi-NCR. While the data centre capacity has surpassed about 1.5 GW, it is far below other major digital economies, underscoring the infrastructure gap.
