The announcement comes just six weeks after AirTrunk entered India via its acquisition of Lumina CloudInfra. The centrepiece is a 3GW campus near Mumbai estimated at $21 billion. The move is part of a broader wave of hyperscale AI infrastructure investment in India, with Google, Microsoft, and Amazon also committing tens of billions. India's government has supported the push with a 20-year tax holiday and billions in AI and semiconductor funding. Execution challenges remain significant — India's total live capacity was only 1.6GW at end of 2025, meaning the announced buildout would require unprecedented construction scale. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
