Located in Nava Raipur, the new RackBank park focuses on AI processing and includes a Special Economic Zone to attract further investment and innovation.

RackBank has opened a new AI data centre park in Nava Raipur, Chhattisgarh, with an initial investment of ₹10 billion (around $118 million).

Instead of relying on conventional data infrastructure, the facility focuses on GPU-based computing, AI processing and data analytics, and is expected to generate over 500 jobs, primarily in the IT sector.

Spread across 13.5 acres, the park includes a designated Special Economic Zone and begins operations with a 5 MW capacity. Rather than stopping there, RackBank plans to scale the facility to 150 MW, which could draw an additional ₹20 billion in investment.

The park has been designed to position India as a competitive force in AI infrastructure.

Instead of standard cooling methods, RackBank is deploying its proprietary direct-to-chip and Varuna liquid immersion systems, which aim to cut cooling costs by up to 70% and enhance energy efficiency.

The company envisions the centre as a hub for academic, industrial and governmental collaboration, helping businesses leverage India’s growing GPU capabilities.

Officials see the initiative as a major step toward digital self-reliance. Rather than concentrating such developments in traditional tech hubs, the project puts Chhattisgarh on the national map for data management and AI innovation.
