12 Feb 2026 CW Team

The company said the total capital expenditure on the data centre programme is roughly Rs 10 billion (Rs 10 bn), signalling a material commitment to digital and clean energy initiatives. The investment will underpin capacity expansion and related infrastructure as the firm seeks to serve growing demand from cloud and enterprise customers. The allocation forms part of a broader strategy to build integrated digital assets alongside traditional engineering projects.

Executives described the work as a strategic move to capture incremental market opportunities in data hosting and cloud services while improving energy efficiency across installations. The schedule for commissioning the remaining capacity by the fiscal year end reflects a phased delivery approach tied to operational readiness and customer onboarding. The added capacity is expected to support enterprise demand and allow the company to offer more comprehensive infrastructure solutions.

The announcement during the earnings call reinforces the company’s stated intent to expand its footprint in digital infrastructure while aligning investments with clean energy objectives. With 14 MW operational and 18 MW due for commissioning, the firm will reach 32 MW of installed capacity, supported by the Rs 10 billion (Rs 10 bn) capital expenditure commitment. Market participants will watch the rollout schedule and subsequent utilisation levels as indicators of commercial traction.
