Puja Jalan, Associate Director at CareEdge Ratings, believes that growth plans offer significant investment opportunities.
“However, project execution challenges, such as land and equipment availability and management of the vendor ecosystem, need to be addressed for the planned capacity addition to materialize,” Jalan said.
Maulesh Desai, a director at CareEdge Ratings, mentioned that the industry is likely to announce the addition of 5GW capacity over the next 5-6 years.
The ratings agency believes that data localization, tax incentives, and cost-saving measures by states will attract investments.
