28 Mar 2024 Evaluate

Credit rating agency, CareEdge Ratings in its latest report has said that India's data centre industry has entered the growth stage and the capacity is likely to double up in the next three years, from approximately 0.9 Gigawatts (GW) in 2023 to 2 GW in 2026.

According to the report, this additional capacity built up has created substantial investment prospects due to the estimated capex requirement of Rs 50,000 crore in the next three years. It however highlighted significant under penetration of data center capacity in India. CareEdge further noted that India has data center capacity share of only 3 per cent globally despite generating 20 per cent of the global data. While mobile data usage in India is highest globally when compared with exabytes usage per month.

The rating agency expects need for data localization to trigger compulsorily investment in data center, and cost-saving incentives by States to attract investments. It cited that the absorption levels have gone up from 82 per cent in 2019 to 93 per cent in 2023. According the report, as capacity was added, industry players' revenue increased by nearly 25 per cent CAGR from FY17 to FY23.
