Kolkata, Oct. 22 -- Cortex DC, a company of The Chatterjee Group (TCG), on Thursday announced its foray into the data centre space, with a plan to develop 2 GW of AI-ready capacity across India over the next seven years.

Built to serve hyperscalers, cloud service providers and advanced AI workloads, the company aims to meet rising demand for high-performance computing driven by AI and cloud adoption. Cortex DC has not yet firmed up locations, but targets operational readiness for its first facility within 18 months of first shovel, with 51 per cent of its energy to be sourced from green sources.

The platform has been in development over the past several months, and its site, power and partner workstreams are already advanced, an official said.

The company is built on three priorities -- speed, scale and sustainable power. The accelerated timeline is aimed at meeting growing demand for AI-ready infrastructure, hypercompute capability and data consumption, the official said.

The company also plans to build renewable energy into its infrastructure strategy from the outset.

With a development roadmap, an experienced leadership team and a supporting board already in place, Cortex DC is positioned to deliver large-scale, AI-ready data centre infrastructure, drawing on TCG's global experience in engineering, energy, technology and large-scale project execution.
