Status: Under Construction (Groundbroken March 18, 2026) | Location: Lodha Industrial Park, Palava Phase 2, Maharashtra, India
A state-of-the-art hyperscale data center campus, this landmark development marks the emergence of Palava as one of the Mumbai Metropolitan Region's (MMR) fastest-growing digital infrastructure destinations. Backed by a long-term strategic investment roadmap, the campus is purpose-built to meet the rapidly increasing demand for cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI), and high-performance computing (HPC) across India. Designed from the ground up for next-generation digital workloads, the facility will support high-density GPU clusters, domestic enterprise large language models (LLMs), generative AI applications, and hyperscale public cloud platforms requiring resilient, scalable infrastructure. The campus incorporates advanced liquid cooling technologies, intelligent power distribution systems, modular building designs, and energy-efficient operations capable of supporting increasingly power-dense rack configurations. Strategically located within Palava's rapidly expanding smart city ecosystem, the project benefits from excellent connectivity to Mumbai, Navi Mumbai, and surrounding commercial hubs, while providing access to robust fiber networks, reliable utilities, and a skilled workforce. Its scalable architecture enables phased capacity expansion to accommodate future enterprise and hyperscale requirements without compromising operational efficiency. Beyond enhancing regional digital infrastructure, the development is expected to generate substantial employment opportunities, attract significant domestic and international investment, and strengthen Maharashtra's position as India's leading data center market. Once operational, the campus will play a vital role in supporting India's AI innovation, cloud adoption, and digital economy, establishing Palava as a premier destination for hyperscale computing and next-generation digital infrastructure.
