India Smart Datacentres & Cloud Infrastructure Summit 2021

The growth prospects of India’s Data center industry have led to approx. USD 400 mn M&A deals over and above the organic investments by operators during 2020.The demand for data centers has increased as cloud adoption and digitization has grown. But to meet this rising demand, India will require a huge investment in data center and cloud infrastructure over the next three years. Demand is likely to ramp up further due to the imminent rollout of 5G, increasing usage of IoT-enabled devices, data localization and cloud adoption. With the COVID-19 pandemic raging, businesses are looking to adopt cloud servers and surging cloud applications will make it imperative for businesses to have a reliable and secure IT infrastructure, where data can be stored and processed effectively.

Data Centers are the backbone of a digital revolution. The Government of India’s proposed Draft Data Center Policy aims to make India a ‘Global Data Center’. This will provide long-term funds for investments in the sector. Various state governments have also been providing incentives to industry players for setting up data center parks. The synergy of technology, legislation, demand, and investments is expected to usher in an era of high growth for India’s DC industry in coming years.

ASSOCHAM, the oldest and apex Chamber of India, has a dedicated National Council on Data Centers. The Council is working extensively with the central and State Governments for creating platform for industry to discuss on legal, policy & regulatory enablers that are essential to develop the digital infrastructure, promote future investments in datacenter industry & strengthen Datacenter & cloud business in India.
