Adani And Jabil Form Alliance For AI Data Centre Manufacturing

22 Jun 2026 CW Team

The manufacturing platform rests on three core pillars: giga-scale AI rack architecture, a comprehensive AI infrastructure ecosystem and a market scale transition to final documentation. Plans envisage multi-GW high density AI rack manufacturing, with production and integration of liquid-cooled AI racks, servers, storage and networking systems using advanced surface mount technology and complex box-build processes. The alliance will also support co-location facilities, hyperscalers and enterprise data centres through integrated hardware solutions.

Beyond compute racks the programme includes white space and grey space device production encompassing power distribution units, coolant distribution units, transformers, switchgear, bus bars and advanced thermal management systems. The partners indicated an end-to-end design to deployment approach intended to provide a single source solution for infrastructure builders. They assessed the global market opportunity as exceeding USD 3 tn over the next seven years and said operational frameworks and documentation are being developed to accelerate execution of the roadmap.

The release noted forecasts that India’s data centre capacity could reach between five and eight GW by 2030 driven by AI demand, cloud expansion and data localisation. It stated that more than USD 50 bn of planned spending is lined up across data centre, cloud and AI ecosystems and that the Union Budget 2026 tax holiday for data centres until 2047 enhances export competitiveness. The announcement was presented as aligning with Adani Group’s USD 100 bn commitment to develop five GW of green energy powered hyperscale AI ready data centres by 2035 and with Jabil’s global manufacturing footprint and reported USD 29.8 bn revenue in fiscal 2025.

Adani Enterprises Ltd and Jabil Inc have announced a strategic alliance to establish a vertically integrated artificial intelligence and data centre infrastructure manufacturing platform in India. The partners said the platform will target gigawatt-scale capacity for global deployments and combine Jabil's six decades of engineering and hyperscale data centre experience with Adani Group's infrastructure, green energy portfolio and logistics network. The initiative is intended to meet growing domestic and international demand for AI-ready data centre hardware.

MEMU Suspension Disrupts Commuters Between Vadodara And Dahod

The Vadodara–Dahod Mainline Electric Multiple Unit (MEMU) service has been temporarily suspended for 26 days after its rake was diverted to Odisha to manage the surge in passenger traffic during the annual Rath Yatra in Puri. Indian Railways redeployed several MEMU rakes from different zones to meet the additional travel demand for the festival scheduled from the seventh of July to the second of August. As a result, train numbers 69233 and 69234 operating between Vadodara and Dahod will remain cancelled for the duration. Railway authorities advised passengers to use alternative train service..
