CtrlS Datacenters announced its ambitious investment plan of $2 billion (approximately Rs 16,600 crore) over the next six years.

This expansion strategy follows recent top management hires and reflects the company's commitment to growth and innovation.

With this expansion, CtrlS Datacenters anticipates hiring over 1,000 employees within the next six years. In addition to business expansion, CtrlS aims to achieve carbon neutrality by 2030 through various initiatives.

The company will focus on advanced water recycling technologies to conserve water, aiming for 100% usage of recycled water across all its data centres. This multi-pronged strategy underscores CtrlS's commitment to environmental sustainability and responsible business practices.
