Hyderabad/Gandhinagar, December 22, 2023: 

CtrlS Datacenters Ltd, the world’s fastest-growing Rated-4 Datacenter provider held its ground-breaking ceremony today for its Greenfield datacenter in GIFT City, Gujarat. Bhupendrabhai Patel, Chief Minister of Gujarat, laid the foundation stone for the facility in a ceremony held today.

CtrlS Datacenters plans to invest over Rs 250 crore and create 1,000 jobs (direct and indirect) in the ecosystem, in multiple phases.

Sridhar Pinnapureddy, Chairman, of CtrlS Datacenters Ltd, said, “The State of Gujarat is one of the fastest-growing economic hubs in India, making it a strategic destination for CtrlS’ ongoing expansion. We are excited to bring our expertise to the State. Located in GIFT City, the datacenter will be easily accessible to all major clusters of the State. GIFT City is a global financial hub and home to several large international and national BFSI companies and is an ideal location for us.” 

He further stated, “We are thankful to the Gujarat Government and GIFT City authorities for extending all the support for our project. CtrlS Gandhinagar 1 DC will serve as an integral part of the larger digital infrastructure ecosystem, enabling the digital growth needs and aspirations of BFSI and other industries in the region.”

Speaking at the Groundbreaking ceremony, Gujarat Chief Minister, Bhupendrabhai Patel said, “Amidst global interest in connecting with India, GIFT City stands as a beacon, drawing major global financial organizations. Welcoming Asia’s largest Rated-4 datacenter, CtrlS, to Gujarat reflects our commitment. The Gujarat state government pledges comprehensive support. I am confident that CtrlS’ presence will inspire more companies to join the thriving ecosystem of GIFT City in the days ahead.”

CtrlS Datacenters’ foray and expansion into the State will further boost the digital infrastructure ecosystem in the region. GIFT City houses large banks, insurers, intermediaries, exchanges, trading companies, clearing companies, financial services companies, IT, ITeS, and others. The region serves as a hub for several financial activities including offshore banking, capital markets, offshore asset management, offshore insurance, ancillary services, IT, ITeS, and BPO Services.
