Indian data center firm Yotta Data Services announced plans to build one of Asia’s largest AI computing hubs using Nvidia’s Blackwell Ultra chips, in a project exceeding $2 billion. The initiative includes a four-year collaboration worth over $1 billion, under which Nvidia will deploy one of the Asia-Pacific region’s largest DGX Cloud clusters within Yotta’s infrastructure.

The project comes as global cloud providers such as Microsoft and Amazon expand AI data center capacity in India, responding to rising demand for generative AI services and efforts to localize advanced computing infrastructure. It also coincides with U.S. export controls reshaping global supply chains for advanced AI chips, prompting companies to strengthen partnerships in strategic markets like India.

The AI supercluster is expected to go live by August and will be hosted at Yotta’s data center campus near New Delhi, with supplementary capacity at its Mumbai facility. Yotta, part of Indian billionaire Niranjan Hiranandani’s real estate group, is Nvidia’s partner in India and currently operates three campuses across Mumbai, Gujarat, and near New Delhi.

The investment is part of a broader trend in India’s cloud and AI sector, where infrastructure expansion is driven by both domestic and international demand. Yotta’s hub aims to provide scalable, high-performance computing to support AI research and enterprise applications, positioning India as a key player in the regional AI landscape. Through this partnership, Nvidia gains a strategic presence in India while supporting the deployment of cutting-edge AI hardware, and Yotta strengthens its position as a leading data center provider capable of hosting next-generation AI workloads.
