Budget 2026 presentation.
Commenting
on this, Raghavendra Mirji, Business Head – Godrej Energy Solutions, says, “India’s data centre sector is entering a
high-growth phase, supported by strong policy measures and rising digital
infrastructure demand. However, these facilities are also among the most
energy-intensive assets being built today. This creates a significant
opportunity for our Power Infrastructure business to construct state of the art
facilities for ensuring reliable electricity.
By pairing our modular Busduct systems with Green
Building expertise, we can also help hyperscalers and enterprises scale rapidly
in India while cutting energy use, cost, and carbon. With our green consulting expertise
and experience in providing electrical solution to large-scale projects, we are
well-positioned to support this transition.”
As India’s digital economy scales
rapidly, data centres are becoming some of the most energy-intensive
infrastructure assets. The Government also introduced a long-term tax holiday
and policy support for data centre and cloud infrastructure, underlining the
strategic importance of these assets in India’s digital economy. This is expected
to create an opportunity for integrated solution providers that can deliver
energy-efficient systems and support renewable energy integration at scale. As
data centres become increasingly energy-intensive, there is a growing need for dedicated
power infrastructure for uninterrupted power, Electrical Busducts to enhance efficiency,
reliability and safety & Green Consulting Solutions to achieve the NET-
ZERO goals.

growth segment and aims to play a pivotal role in building energy-efficient,
resilient digital infrastructure that supports India’s ambitions of becoming a
