Where it sits

Bengaluru holds 2 active projects with 90 MW of planned IT load between them, and STT GDC Bengaluru Whitefield campus ranks second by planned capacity. Of those, 2 are operational. Published colocation vacancy in Bengaluru was 37% as of June 2025. Vacancy excludes hyperscaler self-build.

STT GDC has 8 others in India and 15 projects elsewhere in the dataset tracked by ArusGrid, including STT GDC Pune campus (Dighi), STT Chennai Ambattur campus (Chennai 2, 3 and 4) and STT GDC Palava campus. No tenant has been disclosed, which is normal for colocation and says nothing about occupancy.

The build is phased. Bengaluru 1 at 0.6 MW is operational; Bengaluru 2 at 4 MW is operational; Bengaluru 3 at 18 MW is operational with a 2019 target. The stage was recorded as operational on 20 December 2019.

The US export control position for advanced AI chips in India, as of 27 September 2026, is recorded as “No US destination-based licence requirement as enforced”. ArusGrid holds 2 public sources for this project, the latest dated 3 November 2022, and last checked the record on 2 October 2026.
