A big real estate company has just started a new venture called Yotta Infrastructure, focusing on data center parks. They'll create and manage large-scale hyper-density data centers for businesses. The first center will be in Panvel, Navi Mumbai, and the second will be in Chennai.
Niranjan Hiranandani, the senior figure at the company, mentioned that their company is steadily expanding. The Hiranandani Group owns numerous projects in Maharashtra and over 1800 acres of land across India. They plan to use some of these land parcels to construct various data centers nationwide.

The company is determined to establish a strong presence in the data center industry.
