STT GDC India Chennai Expansion and Investment
ST Telemedia Global Data Centres (India) (“STT GDC India” or the “Company”), a leading AI-ready colocation data centre services provider, today announced the launch of its fourth data centre in Chennai, marking the expansion of its second campus in the city at Siruseri.
The Siruseri campus is designed as a 45 MW AI-ready facility, with the first phase of 7.2 MW now operational. This milestone reinforces STT GDC India’s continued investment in building next-generation digital infrastructure in Tamil Nadu.
The facility was e-inaugurated by the Hon’ble Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, Thiru M.K. Stalin, on 12th February 2026, reflecting the state’s strong commitment to positioning itself as a preferred destination for large-scale, next-generation data centre investments.
With 40 MW already operational at its Chennai Ambattur campus, STT GDC India continues to scale its presence in one of India’s fastest-growing digital markets. Earlier this month, the Company also marked the groundbreaking of STT Chennai 4 within the same campus, unlocking a total development potential of approximately 130 MW, inclusive of the existing operational capacity. This expansion further strengthens STT GDC India’s ability to serve the rapidly accelerating demand from hyperscalers, enterprises and cloud service providers.
The Company has recently signed a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Government of Tamil Nadu, proposing an investment of Rs. 4,200 crore to develop state-of-the-art, AI-ready data centre infrastructure in the state.
Together, these developments reinforce STT GDC India’s leadership in strengthening Chennai’s position as a pivotal hub for AI-led and cloud-driven digital growth, aligned with India’s broader digital economy ambitions.
Aligned with India’s digital growth story, STT GDC India continues to evaluate long-term strategic options to support its future expansion plans, including a potential initial public offering (IPO) targeted for the first half of 2027, as part of its roadmap to strengthen capital access and accelerate growth across India’s digital infrastructure landscape.
Commenting on the Siruseri Campus Launch milestone, Bimal Khandelwal, Chief Executive Officer, STT GDC India, said: “The launch of our fourth data centre in Chennai at the Siruseri campus marks a pivotal milestone in our growth journey and reinforces our long-term commitment to the city. As AI adoption accelerates and cloud demand scales, the need for resilient, high-density, future-ready infrastructure has never been more critical. Siruseri has been purpose-built to support hyperscalers and enterprises as they scale seamlessly and sustainably.
With strong policy support from the Government of Tamil Nadu and growing customer momentum, we see Chennai playing a defining role in India’s AI and digital transformation. Our focus remains clear – to invest decisively, build sustainably, and deliver world-class infrastructure that will power India’s growth for the next decade and beyond.”
Beyond Chennai, STT GDC India is undergoing one of the most significant expansion phases in its history, strengthening its presence across India’s leading digital corridors. The Company has signed strategic MoUs with the governments of Karnataka, Maharashtra, Telangana and Uttar Pradesh to develop large-scale, AI-ready data centre infrastructure, reinforcing its long-term commitment to building national digital capacity.
In parallel, expansion plans are progressing across key markets including Mumbai, Noida, Pune Jaipur, Hyderabad and Bengaluru, ensuring customers benefit from geographically diversified, high-availability infrastructure across India’s most critical economic centres.
Today, with 30 data centres spanning 10 cities and over 400 MW of critical IT load capacity, STT GDC India operates one of the country’s most extensive data centre platforms. Through sustained investments in next-generation, AI-ready campuses, the Company is not only scaling capacity—it is building the digital backbone that will power India’s cloud, AI and enterprise transformation at scale.

The ET NOW Global Business Summit 2026 concluded after two days of high-impact deliberations, positioning India at the centre of global economic and strategic conversations. Held under the theme “A Decade of Disruption. A Century of Change,” the summit brought together delegates, including policymakers, global business leaders, economists, investors and technology experts, making it one of the most influential business gatherings of the year.
The summit served as a high-level platform for candid conversations on the forces reshaping the global order. Policymakers and global business leaders discussed trade, technology, capital markets and regulatory frameworks amid geopolitical and economic uncertainty on day 1. Technology and AI emerged as key structural forces transforming industries and financial systems, while infrastructure, manufacturing and digital public infrastructure were highlighted as critical growth pillars. State-led growth strategies, execution-driven policy frameworks and enterprise transformation were also key themes.
Day 2 shifted the focus from macro themes to execution, with deep dives into digital infrastructure, ease of doing business, trillion-dollar state economies, urban transformation and artificial intelligence. Experts highlighted the need for predictive governance, technology-led urban planning and responsible AI frameworks as critical pillars for sustainable and inclusive growth. Cultural and business conversations added insights on brand trust, innovation and India’s evolving “Built for India” narrative in the global marketplace.
A defining moment of the summit was the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who delivered the Chief Guest address, setting the tone for India’s global ambitions and reform-led growth trajectory. His address underscored India’s resilience amid global disruptions, its expanding role in global growth, and its roadmap to becoming a developed nation by 2047, anchored in infrastructure expansion, manufacturing, digital public infrastructure and global trade partnerships.
