Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy laid the foundation stone Tuesday for a ₹60,000 crore data centre project [1].
The investment marks a significant expansion of digital infrastructure in India. By establishing this campus, Telangana aims to bolster its artificial intelligence ambitions and support a broader economic goal of reaching a $1 trillion economy by 2034 [5].
The facility is being constructed at Bharat Future City, located on the outskirts of Hyderabad [1, 2]. This location serves as the hub for the new campus, which is designed to provide the scalable computing power necessary for modern AI and cloud services.
According to project timelines, the data centre is expected to become operational within 24 months [4]. The development follows a trend of increasing cloud infrastructure investments across the region, positioning the state as a primary competitor for tech hubs in India.
The project represents one of Amazon's largest data centre commitments in the country [5]. The infrastructure will provide the backbone for government digitalization and private sector growth in the region, integrating high-speed computing with the state's existing tech ecosystem.
“The project represents one of Amazon's largest data centre commitments in the country.”
This investment signals a strategic shift toward decentralized cloud infrastructure in India, moving beyond primary hubs like Bengaluru. By integrating a massive AWS campus into the Bharat Future City project, Telangana is attempting to create a physical and digital ecosystem that attracts AI startups and global tech firms, effectively linking infrastructure growth to its long-term $1 trillion GDP target.
