Nvidia's new and old chips to shape India's data centre bet

Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia Corp., speaks during a keynote address at the Nvidia GTC conference in San Jose on Monday.

(BLOOMBERG)

Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang said on Monday that the company's latest chips are 10 times more energy efficient for running artificial intelligence (AI) applications. For India's nascent data centre sector, this offers a choice: either select the latest, pricier graphics processing units (GPUs) to eventually save on power costs, or buy older, cheaper chips to build computing capacity.

Analysts say companies will embrace both strategies as the country's data centre build-out has just begun. The operating capacity is expected to soar from 1.5 gigawatts (GW) today to about 16GW by 2032 as the rising adoption of AI drives demand for computing power.
