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.
