CoreWeave is entering India with plans for 240 megawatts of AI data center capacity in Navi Mumbai as it expands its infrastructure beyond North America and Europe.
The US-listed AI cloud company will work with AdaniConneX to develop three 80 MW buildings at its Taloja campus. The first capacity is expected to become available in mid-2028, with the rest coming online in phases.
CoreWeave will be the sole tenant across the three buildings and will have the option to add another 240 MW, which could eventually double its capacity at the site.
The company also plans to establish an office in India and hire locally, giving it an on-the-ground team to work with customers and partners.
“India has the talent, developers, and ambition to become a major center of AI innovation,” said Sachin Jain, CoreWeave’s chief operating officer.
“We are investing in the infrastructure, technology, and local presence needed to support that growth, bringing 240 megawatts of capacity, NVIDIA Vera Rubin, and CoreWeave’s expertise to customers building and scaling AI in India,” he said.
CoreWeave plans to deploy Nvidia’s Vera Rubin platform at the new facilities for AI training, inference, reasoning and agentic workloads.
The Taloja data centers are being designed for high-density AI systems and will use direct liquid cooling in GPU halls along with a non-evaporative chilled-water system. CoreWeave said the design is intended to accommodate future generations of AI hardware as computing requirements increase.
The India move follows CoreWeave’s entry into Indonesia in August, its first expansion into the Asia-Pacific region. The company already operates infrastructure across North America and Europe and had about 4.2 gigawatts of contracted power as of August 11.
CoreWeave said the India expansion reflects “growing customer demand for its AI cloud platform and its strategy of placing computing infrastructure closer to customers.”
