India requires substantial investment for its digital economy's infrastructure. AI adoption and cloud computing will drive significant data centre capacity needs. This expansion necessitates considerable capital for both traditional and AI-focused facilities. Supporting this growth will also demand vast amounts of electricity annually. Addressing power and infrastructure challenges is crucial for future development.

AI-dedicated capacity is expected to rise multifold to 6,546 MW by 2030 from 275 MW in 2025, while data centre electricity demand is forecast to grow to 191 terawatt-hours (TWh)…

AI data centers in India are projected to consume 26.3 GW of electricity by FY32, primarily from renewable sources.
