Frequently Asked Questions

Choosing the right site means evaluating critical factors like power availability, fibre connectivity, and climate resilience. Our teams assess power supply reliability and utility relationships across states to find locations that meet your specific needs. We also evaluate connectivity to key network points and landing stations for low-latency operations, which is especially important in coastal hubs like Mumbai and Chennai.

We offer comprehensive due diligence, covering technical infrastructure, power purchase agreements (PPAs), and operational efficiency. We focus on the "total cost of ownership" by factoring in local market dynamics, such as fuel price volatility for backup power and shifting rack densities driven by AI. This intelligence helps our clients identify value-creation opportunities in a market with limited supply.

Leases in this region require specialised provisions. We focus on critical terms such as power capacity guarantees, uptime service level agreements (SLAs), and clear expansion rights for future-proofing. We negotiate clauses covering infrastructure upgrades and penalties for service interruptions, ensuring your agreements support business growth while staying compliant with Indian regulations.

The market is at an inflection point. The Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act is driving a significant push for data localisation, while AI adoption is increasing rack density requirements. Demand for colocation is accelerating as companies move from on-premise infrastructure. We help you navigate this by identifying power-ready sites ahead of the competition in high-demand areas.

Energy efficiency is a key priority. We help our clients implement sustainability strategies, such as procuring renewable energy through various models. As solar and wind hybrid systems become more common, we assist in securing long-term green PPAs to provide tariff certainty. We also help you achieve green building certifications, which are becoming a strategic differentiator for attracting global hyperscale tenants.

We manage the entire development lifecycle, from land acquisition to commissioning. Our project management teams navigate complex state-level approvals, coordinate with power distribution companies for grid connectivity, and manage contractors. We leverage our strong local relationships to ensure projects are delivered to global operational standards, particularly in emerging hubs like Hyderabad and Noida where infrastructure is scaling rapidly.
