The new campus is designed to serve leading hyperscalers including internet and cloud companies in the fast-growing Mumbai region in India and is scheduled to be service-ready in 2022.

PDG revealed that the campus consists of two adjacent multi-story buildings with six data floors, giving a total of 12 data halls, each with 4MW of power. Vipin Shirsat, PDG's managing director, India, is confident the company will sell more than one of these halls in the first phase, and have it operational by the end of 2022.
Shirsat said that, "as the largest data center market in India, Mumbai houses 31 percent of the nation’s colocation footprint even as providers move further inland through Navi Mumbai which is considered a submarket of Mumbai."“Our ambition is to be one of the largest, pan-national hyperscale data center providers in the country over the next three years.
“Our commitment to supporting our hyperscale customers in India is part of our core strategy to be a market leader in Asia Pacific (APAC) region,” said Rangu Salgame, Chairman & CEO, Princeton Digital Group. “PDG is the only company with the expertise, agility, and backing to have built an unrivalled portfolio of 18 data centers, with over 350MW, across four countries -China, Singapore, Indonesia, and India - all in three years.”
Princeton Digital’s operational model enables it to rapidly enter critical hyperscale growth markets like Mumbai and power its customers with globally standardized, secure, reliable, and sustainable data center capacity.
The two buildings each have a ground floor with six data center floors above it. "In Navi Mumbai, land is extremely expensive, so a G+6 format G+6 is fairly standard. We are confident we will do more than 4MW in the first phase."Shirsat said that, Mumbai’s data center market will grow at 22 percent per year until 2023.
