GPU Giants Rise: Telangana-Japan Pact Ignites Hyderabad as India’s AI Supercomputing Capital

In a historic initiative to drive India's digital ecosystem, the government of Telangana has entered into a tripartite Memorandum of Understanding with Japanese tech giant NTT DATA and AI-first cloud platform Neysa Networks to set up the nation's largest AI Data Centre Cluster in Hyderabad. The Rs 10,500 crore investment, sanctioned during Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy's trip to Japan, will develop a 400 MW data centre cluster with 25,000 GPUs—set to become India's most powerful AI supercomputing infrastructure.

 

It reflects Telangana's ambition to emerge as the AI capital of India and provides sovereign, scalable, and sustainable compute power for both public and enterprise AI workloads. The centre will be served by a combination of grid and renewable power (up to 500 MW) and incorporate state-of-the-art liquid immersion cooling to achieve best-in-class ESG standards. The project also seeks to develop AI skills through collaboration with local universities, further enhancing Hyderabad as a leading data centre destination.
