NEW DELHI: Meta has signed its first artificial intelligence data centre deal in India, partnering with Reliance Industries<\/a> on a 168-megawatt facility in Jamnagar, Gujarat, as technology companies race to secure the computing infrastructure needed to power AI applications.The agreement deepens a relationship that began with Meta\u2019s $5.7 billion investment in Jio Platforms in 2020 and reflects growing interest among global technology firms in India\u2019s emerging AI infrastructure ecosystem.Under the partnership, Meta will lease capacity at Reliance\u2019s upcoming AI-enabled data centre, which is expected to become operational within two years. Reliance will be responsible for the design, construction, connectivity and day-to-day operations of the facility, while Meta will bear the cost of energy and water required for its workloads.Reliance said the facility will run on renewable energy and use desalinated seawater for cooling, part of a broader effort to address the significant power and water requirements associated with AI computing. The company added that the site can be expanded over time to support Meta\u2019s growing global AI infrastructure needs.The deal comes at a time when technology companies race to secure data centre capacity for AI training and inference workloads. India has increasingly emerged as an attractive destination for such investments, supported by government incentives.According to government data, India\u2019s installed data centre capacity has grown from around 375 megawatts in 2020 to about 1.5 gigawatts in 2025.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
