Reflecting growing global confidence in India's technology sector, CtrlS Datacenters has secured a strategic investment commitment of ₹7,000 crore (approximately $840 million) from the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPP Investments). This partnership is designed to significantly expand the company's datacenter footprint across India. The move aims to capitalize on the surging demand for digital infrastructure and AI-ready facilities within the domestic market.
This substantial capital injection comes as India's datacenter market experiences rapid acceleration, with JLL reporting expectations for the sector's capacity to reach 1.4 GW by 2025. This deal places CtrlS in direct competition with major players like AdaniConnex and Reliance Industries, who are also scaling their infrastructure investments per market data. The trend further solidifies India's position as a regional data hub, supported by long-term institutional capital from global pension and sovereign funds.
