A Vestian report projects that India's data centre capacity will reach five Gigawatt (GW) by 2030 and that the market will be worth $22 bn. The consultancy attributed the growth to accelerating digital adoption, cloud migration and increasing demand from hyperscale operators. The projection reflects both organic growth by domestic firms and new capacity announced by global cloud providers. The expansion is expected to be driven by demand in metropolitan areas and by emerging regional hubs, with developers focusing on hyperscale campuses and edge facilities. Increased colocation uptake and enterprise cloud adoption are likely to sustain strong absorption across major markets. Smaller edge installations will complement larger campuses to improve latency for end users and to support Internet of Things use cases. Power availability and land cost will shape investment decisions, with many operators seeking locations that offer scalable utility connections and improved operational economics. There will be heightened emphasis on energy efficiency and procurement of renewable power as operators aim to reduce carbon footprints and to meet corporate environmental commitments. Choices around cooling technologies and battery storage deployment will influence total cost of ownership and site design. Operators are also assessing supply chain resilience and vendor diversity to ensure continuity of operations amid rapid roll-out. The real estate sector and service providers are expected to see elevated activity as investments flow into data centre development and supporting infrastructure. Policymakers will need to prioritise grid upgrades and streamlined approvals to accommodate capacity additions and to enable faster deployment. Industry observers anticipate that private capital and institutional investors will continue to allocate resources while the timeline to 2030 will be shaped by regulatory clarity and the pace of enterprise digitisation. Analysts expect that ancillary sectors such as cooling equipment, power distribution and logistics will expand in tandem, supporting job creation and specialised services.
