“As one of the most important markets, India is integral to PDG’s growth and investment strategy in building a world class portfolio of data centers serving global hyperscalers. This acquisition reflects our commitment to scaling responsibly with secured power, approvals in place, and a clear path to execution.” - Rangu Salgame, Chairman, CEO & Co-founder - PDG

March 2026 : In a move that signals the dawn of a new era for India’s digital backbone, Princeton Digital Group (PDG) has recently announced a massive strategic acquisition of 210 MW across Mumbai and Hyderabad. This latest expansion doesn't just add capacity; it catapults PDG toward a staggering 1 GW total portfolio in the country, cementing its status as a titan in Asia’s data center landscape.

With an additional billion-dollar investment now on the table, PDG’s total commitment to the Indian market has reached approximately USD 2.5 billion.

As India transitions from a mobile-first economy to an AI-led powerhouse, the need for "AI-ready" infrastructure has shifted from a luxury to a necessity. This acquisition is a direct response to that hunger, securing large-scale capacity with power already locked in and land approvals ready to go. For global hyperscalers - the giants behind the cloud and AI services we use daily - this means a much faster "Ready for Service" (RFS) timeline.

“India is entering a defining phase of its cloud and AI journey,” said Rangu Salgame, Chairman, CEO and Co-founder of PDG. “As one of the most important markets, India is integral to PDG’s growth and investment strategy in building a world class portfolio of data centers serving global hyperscalers. This acquisition reflects our commitment to scaling responsibly with secured power, approvals in place, and a clear path to execution.”

What makes PDG’s growth particularly impressive is the balance between sheer scale and sustainability. The company is leaning heavily into IGBC Platinum-certified facilities and renewable energy procurement, proving that massive computing power doesn't have to come at a massive environmental cost.

“Since entering India in 2022, we have approached the market as a long-term growth engine and a strategic region for our global customers,” added Vipin Shirsat, Managing Director, India. “This acquisition strengthens our ability to deliver AI-ready, high-density capacity in Mumbai and Hyderabad.”

With operations spanning seven countries and a total portfolio exceeding 1.8 GW, PDG is no longer just watching the digital transformation of Asia - it is actively building the engines that drive it.
