The Telangana government has taken a significant step toward positioning Hyderabad as India's data center capital with the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with STT Global Data Centres India Private Limited (STT GDC India). The partnership aims to establish a state-of-the-art data center campus in Meerkhanpet, located in the Mucherla region of Hyderabad. 
The MoU was signed on January 18 in Singapore, with Telangana's IT Minister D Sridhar Babu and STT GDC CEO Bruno Lopez in attendance. The agreement, valued at Rs 35 billion, underscores Telangana's growing prominence as a hub for global technology infrastructure.

STT GDC’s decision to invest in our state highlights our strong ecosystem and progressive policies. We are confident that Hyderabad will be a key player in the global AI-driven digital transformation." 
STT GDC India, a subsidiary of ST Telemedia Global Data Centres, Singapore, is already operating a data center in Hyderabad's HITECH City. The company is a leading provider of AI-ready colocation services and manages one of India’s largest white space areas, with over 390 MW of critical IT load across 30 facilities in 10 cities.
