Investor and Zerodha co-founder Nikhil Kamath invested INR 200 crore in data center operator CtrlS Datacenters, while entrepreneur Sreeram Reddy Vanga has invested INR 50 crore.
Founded by Sridhar Pinnapureddy, CtrlS operates hyperscale data centres serving enterprises, cloud providers, financial institutions and government organisations.
The capital will be used to expand CtrlS’s infrastructure and data centre capacity across India, amid rising demand for AI, cloud and digital workloads.
Nikhil Kamath, investor and entrepreneur, said, “Every meaningful technology shift of the next decade, AI, cloud and digital public infrastructure, runs on data centres. India is at an inflection point where the underlying infrastructure either keeps pace or becomes the bottleneck.”
Sreeram Reddy Vanga, investor and entrepreneur, said, “India’s AI and cloud ambitions will require world-class digital infrastructure at scale. I am excited to be part of CtrlS’s next phase of growth and the broader digital infrastructure opportunity in India.”
Sridhar Pinnapureddy, Founder and CEO, CtrlS Datacenters, said the investment will support the company’s long-term expansion and enable it to build data centre platforms for India’s growing digital economy.
