At a cost of about $250 million, BAM Digital Realty, a partnership between Brookfield Infrastructure and Digital Realty, would erect a data centre on a 2.15-acre plot of land in Chandivali, Mumbai.

The second data centre for the business will have a 35 MW capacity for IT load. At the end of 2023, its first data centre in Chennai, with a 20 MW IT load capacity, will become operational.

According to the company, the new location of BAM Digital Realty was chosen for its accessibility to clients and central location within the city. It also offered the necessary attributes of a well-connected facility capable of meeting the region's expanding demand for critical digital infrastructure.

By the end of 2025, it is anticipated that India's data centre market will have an installed capacity of 1.4 GW. Mumbai, the nation's financial headquarters and home to numerous huge companies, is a key source of demand for data centres, making up over 43% of the nation's total capacity. Numerous subsea cable landings in India and high-density fibre connectivity are further benefits.

135 MW of data centre capacity will be available in the nation, according to BAM Digital Realty.
