Closing that gap by 2047 is not a slogan problem. It is a power, water, land and engineering problem, solved one facility at a time. This is how we design, build and operate against the national mandate — and what we hold ourselves to on every site.
Figures as reported for early to mid 2026. They move quickly, and every number below is a design input on a live project, not a poster.
3% of global capacity
Against roughly 20% of the world’s data generated in India. The United States and China together hold close to 70%.
271facilities
Operational data centres in India in early 2026, carrying an estimated 1.57–1.79 GW of live IT power.
8GW targeted
Capacity Gujarat alone intends to develop under its 2026–29 data centre policy, against proposals already near 10 GW.
21years to 2047
A facility commissioned this year will be halfway through its second refresh cycle when the target date arrives. Design for that, not for handover.

National policy, state policy and the standards bodies pull in the same direction even where the drafting differs. Stripped of the language, an operator is being asked for five things.
BIS codified India’s first formal standards for cloud, data centre performance and ethical AI in February 2026, through its LITD 31 committee. They are voluntary until a Quality Control Order makes them otherwise.
Independent analysis of state policies finds a persistent water governance deficit: continuous supply is promised to attract investment, while reuse and consumption obligations stay thin.
Renewable procurement through PPAs, with the Nuclear Energy Mission’s 100 GW by 2047 ambition and small modular reactors now part of long-horizon load planning.
Nuclear Energy MissionWorkloads, operational telemetry and models held inside infrastructure the operator controls, with access and retention governed under the DPDP Act, 2023.

Site risk assessmentThe standards give the vocabulary. These are the numbers and clauses we are willing to be held to, and where each one comes from.
| Reference | What it measures | Our design position |
|---|---|---|
| IS/ISO/IEC 30134-2 | Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) | Design target 1.4 or better on new builds; measured annualised, not on a cool-morning reading |
| IS/ISO/IEC 30134-7:2023 | Cooling Efficiency Ratio (CER) | Reported per thermal zone, so a single site average cannot hide a failing hall |
| IS/ISO/IEC 30134-8:2022 | Carbon Usage Effectiveness (CUE) | Tracked against the actual supply mix, including contracted renewable energy |
| IS/ISO/IEC 30134-9:2022 | Water Usage Effectiveness (WUE) | Modelled at design stage against district water stress; closed-loop preferred in water-scarce zones |
| BEE building codes | Envelope and equipment efficiency | Applied to the shell and the mechanical plant, evidenced at commissioning |
| DPDP Act, 2023 | Personal data handling | Telemetry, camera feeds and model inference stay inside the client perimeter by default |
| State DC policy | Incentives and obligations | Mapped per state at feasibility stage, since obligations differ materially between them |
The BIS measurement standards are voluntary today. We treat them as binding on our own designs, because the alternative — retrofitting metering after a Quality Control Order lands — costs more and proves less.
So we plan the estate on the same horizon the country does, and we put the decision points where they can still be acted on.
Metering to the 30134 series, a measured PUE, CUE, WUE and CER baseline, and a costed remediation list for the existing estate.
Renewable PPAs carrying the base load, waste-heat and free-cooling hours claimed, water reuse in place at every site above 5 MW.
Liquid and immersion cooling as the default for high-density halls, with the electrical topology already sized for the step up.
Grid, renewable and — where the siting allows — small modular nuclear supply, on an estate designed to accept it rather than rebuilt to.
A facility inside Indian territory still leaks control if its operational telemetry, its video feeds or its model inference call out to somewhere else. That is why every AJEEVI product is built to run inside your own perimeter: DCIM, video analytics, helpdesk and self-hosted AI, on your servers or at the edge.
The practical test we apply is simple. If the external link drops, does the facility still know what it is doing? On our designs it does, because the intelligence sits where the plant sits.
We will tell you what it can carry, what it will consume, and which obligations bite — before anyone signs a term sheet.
