ST Telemedia Global Data Centres (India), an AI-ready colocation data center services provider, has announced the launch of its fourth data center in Chennai, in the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu. Chennai is India’s second largest data center market, and the new data center – STT Chennai 7 – marks the expansion of STT GDC India’s second campus in the city at the upcoming digital infrastructure hub of Siruseri.
The facility was e-inaugurated by the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, Thiru M.K. Stalin, earlier this month. The Siruseri campus is designed as a 45 MW AI-ready facility, with the first phase of 7.2 MW now operational. With 40 MW already operational at its Chennai Ambattur campus, STT GDC India continues to scale its presence in one of India’s fastest-growing digital markets.
“The launch of our fourth data centre in Chennai at the Siruseri campus marks a pivotal milestone in our growth journey and reinforces our long-term commitment to the city,” said Bimal Khandelwal, Chief Executive Officer, STT GDC India. “Siruseri has been purpose-built to support hyperscalers and enterprises as they scale seamlessly and sustainably.”
Earlier this month, the Company also marked the groundbreaking of STT Chennai 4 within the same campus, paving the way for a total development potential of approximately 130 MW, inclusive of the existing operational capacity.
The Company has recently signed a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Government of Tamil Nadu, proposing an investment of ₹4,200 crore to develop state-of-the-art, AI-ready data center infrastructure in the state. STT GDC India continues to evaluate long-term strategic options to support its future expansion plans, including a potential initial public offering (IPO) targeted for the first half of 2027.
Beyond Chennai, STT GDC India has signed strategic MoUs with the governments of Karnataka, Maharashtra, Telangana and Uttar Pradesh to develop large-scale, AI-ready data center infrastructure, reinforcing its long-term commitment to building national digital capacity. Additionally, expansion plans are progressing across key markets including Mumbai, Noida, Pune, Jaipur, Hyderabad and Bengaluru.
