HyperVault aims to establish AI data centers with capacity in excess of a GW and address the growing need for AI-ready data centers
Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) (BSE: 532540, NSE: TCS), a global leader in IT services, consulting, and business solutions, has today announced a strategic partnership with TPG, a leading global alternative asset management firm to support the growth of its AI data center business, HyperVault. This investment will support HyperVault’s GW-scale AI-ready infrastructure build and aligns with TCS’ plan to create AI-ready data centers with capacity in excess of a GW over the next few years. This partnership marks a significant milestone in TCS’ ambition to become the largest AI-led technology services company.
TCS’ HyperVault will be funded through a mix of equity from TCS and TPG, and debt. Both partners combined, will commit to invest up to Rs 18,000 crore over the next few years. Out of the total commitment of up to Rs 18,000 crore, TPG will invest up to Rs 8,820 crore and is envisaged to have final shareholding between 27.5% and 49% in HyperVault. Bringing in TPG as a strategic investment partner will help TCS drive stronger returns to its shareholders, reduce its capital outlay, and create long-term value for the data center platform.
TPG’s investment in HyperVault is being facilitated through TPG Rise Climate and its Global South Initiative, a private equity strategy launched in partnership with ALTÉRRA. Additionally, TPG is also partnering through its Asia Real Estate business, marking an important milestone for the platform in India.
N. Chandrasekaran, Chairman, TCS, commented, “I am delighted to have TPG join us in our journey to build large GW-scale AI data centers in India, tapping the rapidly growing AI demand.

We are excited and committed to play a leading role in creating world-class AI infrastructure and solutions for the industry and work towards making TCS the largest AI-led technology services company.”
Jim Coulter, Executive Chairman of TPG and a Managing Partner of TPG Rise Climate, said, “We are excited to partner with TCS and are grateful for our long-standing partnership with the Tata Group, both who share our vision and commitment to innovation and sustainability. Data centers are a multifaceted asset class and sit at the intersection of green energy infrastructure, technology and real estate. We look forward to bringing TPG’s sectoral expertise across these asset classes and working together with TCS to drive India’s next wave of digital infrastructure innovation in a climate-positive manner and build a more resilient future for the country’s digital and data economy.”
