Reliance Industries Ltd.

Reliance Industries has entered into a partnership with Meta Platforms, Inc. (Meta) for a data centre project in Jamnagar, Gujarat. The company will develop a data center with 168 MW capacity to be delivered within two years, with an option to scale.

This is the first built-to-suit data centre capacity in India for Meta and represents a significant step in India’s emergence as a global hub for AI infrastructure. Meta will lease capacity from the facility, marking a significant step in Meta's global infrastructure expansion and deepening the long-standing strategic partnership with the company - one that spans connectivity, commerce, and AI innovation in one of the world's most dynamic digital markets. The data center will serve Meta’s global infrastructure, supporting its core business and AI compute needs, underscoring India’s growing role in the worldwide digital and AI ecosystem.

Under the agreement, the company will provide comprehensive end-to-end services spanning the entire lifecycle of the data centre - from design and construction to the ongoing management of utilities, renewable power supply, network connectivity, and fully managed operational services. This positions the company as a single-window solutions provider for hyperscale AI infrastructure in India.

The strategic location in Gujarat offers significant advantages for large-scale data centre operations, including delivery capability, renewable energy, water availability, proximity to India’s western submarine cable landing stations and Jio’s extensive fibre network. The data center will be powered by renewable energy and cooled with desalinated seawater, demonstrating both the company and Meta's commitment to sustainability.

This partnership is aligned with the Government of India's priorities which designate data centres as strategic national infrastructure and introduces a long-term policy framework to attract global AI infrastructure investment into India.

Reliance Industries is India’s largest private sector company. The company’s activities span hydrocarbon exploration and production, petroleum refining and marketing, petrochemicals, retail and 4G digital services.
