06 Aug 2025 CW Team

The expansion signals a major step forward in Anant Raj’s digital infrastructure ambitions. The company expects revenue from its data centre and cloud services segment to grow to approximately Rs 12 billion by FY27, and scale up to nearly Rs 90 billion by FY32, highlighting the strong growth trajectory of this vertical.

The announcement was made during the company’s Technology Day, themed “Bharat Built: Soil to Server”, which saw participation from investors, partners, and stakeholders, reinforcing market confidence in Anant Raj’s long-term vision.

The company has outlined an aggressive expansion plan targeting 63 MW capacity by FY27 and 307 MW by FY32 across its three data centre locations in Panchkula, Manesar, and Rai.

Managing Director Mr Amit Sarin commented, “The operationalisation of the Panchkula facility and expansion in Manesar marks a key milestone in our journey. Our ability to execute consistently gives us confidence in scaling to 63 MW by FY27 and reaching 307 MW by FY32. This reflects the commitment of our teams and continued trust from our investors.”

Anant Raj’s data centre strategy is underpinned by a deep understanding of India’s rapidly evolving digital landscape and rising demand for scalable, efficient, and sustainable data infrastructure. Its campuses in Haryana are strategically located for high-speed connectivity to major metros and proximity to enterprise hubs.

Haryana, through its industry-friendly State Data Centre Policy, has emerged as a pivotal location for digital infrastructure, offering incentives such as subsidised power, single-window clearances, and support for green projects. Anant Raj’s presence in the state aligns with its ambition to become a digital infrastructure leader.

The company’s growth in the cloud and data space is being driven by its wholly owned subsidiary, Anant Raj Cloud, which focuses on building advanced, secure, and scalable infrastructure to support India’s digital economy.

With India experiencing a surge in digital services, cloud adoption, and AI workloads, the company believes that sovereign, high-performance infrastructure will be critical. Its integrated model—from land acquisition to delivery—offers speed, cost advantages, and assurance in execution.
