The recent boom in AI, which requires vast amounts of computing data, has fuelled a corporate rush to pour money into the technology globally and has led to an unprecedented growth in data centres across the world.

India’s data centre capacity is expected to more than triple to 4.5 gigawatt by 2030 from current levels, according to real estate consultant Colliers.

Last week, Indian IT firm TCS also unveiled a partnership with private equity firm TPG to invest $2 billion in equity to form a joint venture aimed at developing AI data centres.
