Colocation services provider ST Telemedia Global Data Centres India (STT GDC India) has officially begun construction of a INR 1100 crore (around US$151.5 million) data centre in Noida, a satellite city of Delhi in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh.
STT GDC India, a majority-owned subsidiary of ST Telemedia Global Data Centres (STT GDC), said the site is part of its multi-megawatt capacity expansion planned for across the country.

We continue to be committed to supporting the burgeoning digital ecosystem of the country with state-of-the-art facilities and global standards of excellence in service through world-class infrastructure and cutting-edge solutions at our new projects.

“The promise of Noida emerging as a new Data Centre hub is well supported by progressive policy impetus at both the Central and State governments. We look forward to leading from the front as we expand and continue to support clients with an unwavering commitment to uninterrupted business continuity.”
