STT Global Data Centres has bought a land parcel in Navi Mumbai for Rs 2,820 million to develop a data centre, according to public transaction records. The property comprises a 14,093 square metre plot with an existing built-up structure of 6,828 square metres, and the transfer was registered on 22 May 2026 with stamp duty of Rs 25.5 mn. The acquisition adds to a steady flow of data centre real estate deals in the Mumbai metropolitan region. The company acquired the site from Mumbai-based publishing services firm Repro India Ltd and the parcel sits in the TTC Industrial Area under MIDC in Khairane village. The purchaser intends to use the land for future capacity expansion in the region, where operators have been securing land for hyperscale timelines. Business Standard’s email queries to STT Global Data Centres and Repro India were not answered. STT Global Data Centres currently operates across 10 Indian cities, running 30 facilities with a combined IT load capacity of 400 MW. In the Navi Mumbai region the group operates three data centres, including STT Navi Mumbai one, which has an IT load of 28.4 MW, and two under-development facilities, STT Navi Mumbai two and STT Navi Mumbai three, with a combined IT load of 90 MW. The purchase is consistent with the firm’s ongoing land banking and capacity build plans. The Mumbai metropolitan region accounts for about 47 per cent of India’s live data centre capacity and had a live IT load of 766.6 MW by the end of 2025, with projections to approach 866 MW by 2027. Other recent transactions include Amazon Data Services India’s purchase of 10.6 acres, about 42,955 square metres, in Palava for Rs 1,251.3 mn and its earlier acquisition of roughly 38.18 acres for Rs 4,500 mn in November 2024. Industry consultants say India’s live IT capacity across seven major markets exceeded 1.6 GW by the end of 2025, underscoring a defining expansion phase. Navi Mumbai and Chandivali are identified as major corridors attracting aggressive land banking by operators.
