Real estate and infrastructure firm
Anant Raj Limited
has officially launched its second
data center
facility in Panchkula, Haryana, adding 7 MW of
IT load capacity
to its growing digital portfolio. Operated through its subsidiary Anant Raj Cloud. Anant Raj has added 28 MW of operational capacity across its two Haryana sites—7 MW at the new Panchkula facility and a scale-up of its Manesar center from 6 MW to 21 MW.
With the Panchkula launch, Anant Raj now boasts 28 MW of operational data center capacity across two sites:
* Panchkula: 7 MW (newly commissioned)
* Manesar: scaled up from 6 MW to 21 MW
These facilities are part of the company's ambitious 'Bharat Built: Soil to Server' campaign, which aims to deliver 310 MW of data center capacity by 2032, backed by a planned investment of ₹180 billion (USD 2.1 billion).
To celebrate the milestone, Anant Raj will host a showcase event titled BHARAT BUILT: Soil to Server on August 1–2, 2025, highlighting its Tier-III and Tier-IV compliant infrastructure at both Panchkula and Manesar.
India's data center market is expected to reach 3 GW by 2030, but demand could exceed 6 GW by 2033, according to Avendus Capital—leaving a projected 1.5 GW supply gap. Anant Raj's aggressive expansion, including a planned 200 MW hyperscale campus in Rai, positions it as a key player in bridging this gap.
The company's first data center in Manesar was commissioned in September 2023, and its rapid scaling includes a strategic partnership with Orange Business to offer managed
cloud services
