CtrlS Datacenters Raises $26 million From Nikhil Kamath and Sreeram Reddy Vanga

Nikhil Kamath invested ₹200 crore, while Sreeram Reddy Vanga invested ₹50 crore in the company.

CtrlS will use the new funding to expand its infrastructure and increase its data centre capacity. The company wants to meet the growing demand from businesses and large technology companies across India.

The company expects demand for data centres to continue growing as artificial intelligence, cloud computing and other digital services become more widely used.

“Over the years, we have built CtrlS with a long-term vision of where India’s digital economy is headed and the digital infrastructure it will require. What excites me about this partnership is the alignment in that long-term vision. It gives us the ability to think bigger, move faster, and continue building data centre platforms that will support India’s next phase of growth,” said Sridhar Pinnapureddy, Founder and CEO, CtrlS Datacenters.

“Every meaningful technology shift of the next decade—AI, cloud, and digital public infrastructure- runs on data centres. India is at an inflexion point where the underlying infrastructure either keeps pace or becomes the bottleneck,” said Kamath.

CtrlS Datacenters was founded by Sridhar Pinnapureddy and develops and operates hyperscale and AI-ready data centres.

The company provides data centre services to large businesses, cloud providers, financial institutions and government organisations. Its services focus on reliability, security, efficient operations and sustainability.

According to CtrlS, the company operates 19 data centres across nine major markets in India, with more than 370 MW of capacity. It also has around 4.4 GW of additional projects at different stages of development.
