Economic Survey: India’s data centre capacity to reach about 8 GW by 2030
India’s data centre capacity is set to surge to about 8 GW by 2030 from 1.4 GW in 2025, driven by rapid cloud adoption, AI workloads, and rising data consumption, the Economic Survey 2025–26 said. Despite generating nearly 20% of global data, India hosts just 3% of the world’s data centres, highlighting a major growth opportunity.
