Indian data centre operator Yotta Data Services announced on Wednesday that it will build one of Asia’s largest artificial intelligence computing hubs, powered by Nvidia’s latest Blackwell Ultra chips, in a project valued at more than $2 billion.
As part of the initiative, Nvidia will deploy one of the Asia-Pacific region’s largest DGX Cloud clusters within Yotta’s infrastructure under a four-year agreement worth over $1 billion, the company said.
The expansion comes as global cloud giants such as Microsoft and Amazon ramp up AI data centre capacity in India to meet surging demand for generative AI services and to support the localisation of advanced computing infrastructure.
The investment also follows tighter U.S. export controls on advanced AI chips, which have reshaped global supply chains and encouraged companies to strengthen partnerships in key growth markets like India.
The AI supercluster is expected to go live by August and will be hosted at Yotta’s data centre campus near New Delhi, with additional capacity supported by its facility in Mumbai.
Yotta, part of billionaire Niranjan Hiranandani’s real estate group, is Nvidia’s partner in India and operates three data centre campuses across Mumbai, Gujarat and the New Delhi region.
