AMD, TCS partner to build AI data centres in India

Enterprises will gain access to 200MW deployment of “Helios” rack-scale AI architecture.

US chip giant AMD and Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) have expanded their partnership to build, deploy, and manage AI-ready data centres in India using AMD’s advanced 'Helios' rack-scale architecture.

The company said the architecture will be powered by AMD Instinct MI455X GPUs, next generation AMD EPYC “Venice” CPUs, AMD Pensando Vulcano NICs and the ROCm software ecosystem, purpose-built to deliver a rack-scale AI platform supporting sovereign AI factories. 

The platform is expected to improve performance efficiency and reduce time to deployment for AI workloads. It comes as businesses around the world shift from AI pilots to production-scale deployments, driving demand for high-density compute infrastructure.

As part of this strategic collaboration, both companies will offer an AI-ready data centre blueprint supporting up to 200 Megawatt of capacity for hyperscalers and enterprises. 

AMD’s Chair and CEO Lisa Su said, "AI adoption is accelerating from pilots to large-scale deployments, and that shift requires a new blueprint for compute infrastructure. 

TCS’s subsidiary, HyperVault AI Data Center Limited, will lead the deployment. HyperVault AI Data Center Limited was established with the objective of developing secure and reliable AI ready infrastructure for hyperscalers, AI companies and global enterprises. This announcement builds on the recent collaboration between the partners to help enterprises scale AI adoption and modernise hybrid environments. 

It also positions the partners to compete directly with Nvidia in India's rapidly expanding AI infrastructure market. 

This move is said to align with the country’s broader strategy to build domestic AI capabilities. The government's IndiaAI Mission has already invested over US$1.2 billion (S$1.39 billion) in strengthening national AI compute infrastructure. 

In late 2025, TCS announced collaborating with major tech players, including Microsoft, AWS, Google, and Nvidia, to co-develop enterprise AI solutions. Supported by US$1.98 billion (S$2.5 billion) investment with TPG, this initiative focuses on building 120-megawatt AI data centres, with early talks involving OpenAI as a key anchor customer to develop agentic AI tools.
