Equinix commits $95M to Mumbai data center expansion as capacity set to triple

Equinix is investing an additional $95 million to expand its data centre capacity in Mumbai, with plans to acquire more land and fund growth through foreign capital and debt. The move targets India's largest data centre hub, which accounts for 54% of national capacity. Mumbai's data centre capacity is projected to grow from 1,337.09 megawatts in 2025 to 4,606.91 megawatts by 2031. Market vacancy has fallen to 4.3%, creating pricing power for operators. Maharashtra's 2024 policy supports expansion with incentives including 100% stamp-duty waivers and permanent electricity-duty exemptions. The expansion reflects broader industry momentum, with AdaniConneX targeting 1,000 megawatts and Yotta Data Services deploying 16,000 Nvidia H100 GPUs. Data centre electricity demand is forecast to reach 2.6–3% of national generation by 2030.

Equinix appoints Olivier Leonetti as CFO amid AI data centre expansion push

Equinix has appointed Olivier Leonetti as chief financial officer, effective 16 March, replacing Keith Taylor after his 27-year tenure. The leadership change comes as Equinix positions itself at the centre of AI data centre demand. The company recently launched its Distributed AI Hub across more than 280 data centres, expanding its platform for high-performance workloads. However, Equinix's AI growth strategy relies heavily on significant capital expenditure and higher leverage through its "Build Bolder" expansion plan. Equinix's narrative projects $12.2 billion revenue and $2 billion earnings by 2029, with fair value estimates ranging from $1,036 to $1,421 per share. The CFO transition appears evolutionary rather than disruptive, maintaining near-term focus on funding infrastructure buildout whilst managing interest rate and leverage risks.
