Amazon Data Services India is set to invest nearly ₹4,000 crore (approximately $480 million USD) to establish a data center on a 49-acre plot near Taloja, Maharashtra. The company has applied for environmental clearance from the State Environmental Impact Assessment Authority (SEIAA), with the application submitted on April 3. The proposed facility will include six buildings, four of which will be seven-storey data centers, while the other two will support water and electrical needs. Once operational, the center is expected to consume 473 Mega Watts of electricity daily. The project aligns with the rapid expansion of the global data center market, which is projected to exceed 100 GW in capacity by 2030, driven by the growth of cloud computing and AI technologies. India's data center market is anticipated to grow from $10 billion in 2025 to $22 billion by 2030, positioning the country as a significant hub in the Asia-Pacific region.
