Overview

  • Adani Group, which sources said Wednesday was in preliminary talks with Meta, Google and Flipkart, is exploring partnerships to expand its data center business in India.
  • People familiar with the discussions said the conglomerate is scouting sites across multiple states, and they described the negotiations as early with no locations finalized.
  • Company representatives for Adani, Meta and Walmart declined to comment, and an Alphabet spokesperson said Google had no new investments to discuss.
  • The talks follow October’s AdaniConnex–Google plan for an AI hub in Visakhapatnam, where Google is investing about $15 billion, with the new outreach described as a fresh phase beyond that commitment.
  • The push comes as rivals ramp up in India, with Reliance outlining an $11 billion Visakhapatnam build, TCS securing $1 billion from TPG, Amazon planning $12.7 billion in cloud infrastructure through 2030 and OpenAI seeking a 1‑gigawatt facility, a wave that could drive jobs, local compute capacity and new renewable power projects.
