Real estate developer Anant Raj Ltd has announced a significant investment of ₹4,500 crore in Andhra Pradesh to develop advanced data centre facilities and an integrated IT park. The company will execute the investment through its wholly owned subsidiary, Anant Raj Cloud Pvt. Ltd. (ARCPL), as part of a recently signed Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Andhra Pradesh Economic Development Board (APEDB).
According to the company, the project will be developed in two phases, focusing on the expansion of cutting-edge digital infrastructure and cloud services. The planned data centre and IT park are expected to support the increasing demand for cloud storage, digital connectivity, and emerging technologies. The initiative is also projected to generate around 8,500 direct jobs and 7,500 indirect jobs, contributing to the state’s growing technology ecosystem.
APEDB will extend coordination and facilitation support to ensure smooth project implementation. The investment aligns with Andhra Pradesh’s efforts to strengthen its position as a preferred destination for data centre projects due to its stable power supply, favourable policies, and reliable connectivity.
Anant Raj Ltd currently operates a total IT load of around 28 MW across its existing data centre facilities. With this new project, the company aims to significantly scale its nationwide capacity. It has outlined a long-term plan to expand to 117 MW of installed IT load by FY 2028, and further to 307 MW by FY 2032, driven by rising demand from enterprise and cloud customers.
The company has been consistently strengthening its data centre business. Earlier, it raised funds through institutional channels to expand this vertical and support large-scale digital infrastructure development. Anant Raj Ltd, founded in 1969, also has an extensive track record in developing residential, commercial, and IT-focused real estate projects and holds a significant land bank in the Delhi-NCR region.
The large investment in Andhra Pradesh is expected to boost regional development, improve digital capabilities, and support the growing needs of domestic and global technology companies. This strategic move highlights the company’s broader vision to play a key role in India’s expanding data centre industry.
