India Data Center Market to Reach USD 7.92 Billion by 2032, Growing at a CAGR of 10.73% During 2026–2032

The India data center market was valued at approximately USD 3.88 billion in 2025 and is projected to grow from USD 4.30 billion in 2026 to USD 7.92 billion by 2032, registering a CAGR of 10.73% during 2026–2032. Market expansion is supported by India’s growing digital-user base, increasing cloud adoption, rising data consumption, and the expanding compute requirements of artificial intelligence and other data-intensive applications.

In parallel, AI-ready infrastructure and advanced cooling technologies are gaining traction. Equinix’s CN1 data center in Chennai became operational in September 2025 with an initial USD 69 million investment, opening with 800 cabinets and capacity for approximately 4,250 cabinets at full build-out. The facility supports advanced liquid cooling and high-density workloads, demonstrating the shift toward commercially operational AI-ready infrastructure and premium interconnection services.

From a segmentation perspective, hyperscale data centers accounted for an estimated 56% of market value by type in 2026, reflecting multi-megawatt capacity and high expenditure on computing, power, networking, and cooling infrastructure. Hardware led the component category with an estimated 67% share. Furthermore, the market remained moderately concentrated, with the top five operators collectively accounting for approximately 64% of revenue in 2026, further states the research report, “India Data Center Market Analysis, 2026.”
