RMZ Corp, an Indian real estate firm, announced plans to invest over $35 billion over the next five years in various sectors, including data centers, artificial intelligence infrastructure, and mixed-use commercial developments. The company aims to allocate nearly half of this investment towards enhancing digital infrastructure, specifically targeting the expansion of data center capacity and AI capabilities. Currently, India generates about 20% of the world's data but has only 2% of global data center capacity, highlighting a significant growth opportunity. RMZ is developing co-location data centers in key markets such as Navi Mumbai, Chennai, Visakhapatnam, Hyderabad, and Bengaluru, with a goal of achieving 1.5 gigawatts of capacity nationwide. Additionally, RMZ is considering an initial public offering (IPO) to secure long-term capital, as stated by its co-founder and chairman, Manoj Menda. The investment strategy also includes a focus on commercial real estate, particularly Global Capability Centres (GCCs), which are driving office demand in India, and retail formats centered around experiential programming and luxury hospitality.
