Key points
- Construction begins on Mumbai 3, a 64MW AI-ready data center in Navi Mumbai, fully pre-let with first hyperscale customer signed
- Joint venture between Colt DCS and RMZ aims for 250MW capacity across Mumbai and Chennai, backed by $1.7B investment
- Facility uses hybrid cooling, 100% renewable energy, and will create over 700 jobs while supporting local suppliers
The $1.7 billion partnership aims to develop 250MW of capacity across Mumbai and Chennai. Mumbai 3 will join existing facilities at the Navi Mumbai Campus, boosting its operational capacity from 148MW to 86MW upon completion. Designed for high-density AI workloads, the center features hybrid cooling (air and liquid-to-chip), a 220kV GIS substation, and carrier-neutral connectivity. Both companies emphasize sustainability, with 100% renewable energy and a closed-loop cooling system to minimize wastewater. The project will create over 700 jobs and support local suppliers.
Pratap Mane (Colt DCS India) and Deepak Chhabria (RMZ Infrastructure) highlighted the facility’s role in meeting India’s growing AI and cloud demands, citing scalability, resilience, and speed as key advantages.
