Google is set to commence its $15 billion artificial intelligence (AI) data centre project in Visakhapatnam (Vizag), India, on April 28. Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu will lay the foundation of the project, which is one of Google's largest single foreign direct investment (FDI) projects in India. The data centre will span 600 acres across three locations: Rambilli, Adavivaram, and Tarluvada, and is expected to be completed by July 2028. The project will deploy AI infrastructure, establish a subsea gateway, and provide gigawatt-scale compute for global operations. AdaniConnex and Bharti Airtel will play key infrastructure roles in the project, with AdaniConnex developing the core data centre infrastructure and Airtel building and operating the high-capacity fibre-optic network and a new international subsea cable landing station. The project is poised to become Asia's largest data centre cluster and create high-value jobs and a new AI ecosystem for the youth of Andhra Pradesh.
