Noida 02 is Sify’s second hyperscale campus in Delhi-NCR, about a kilometre from Noida 01, with three scalable towers, more than 13,000 racks, a dedicated on-premise 220 kV substation and NVIDIA DGX-Ready certification for liquid cooling at 130 to 200 kW per rack. It is the largest AI-ready campus in Northern India by its own description. Its capacity has been published at 25.92 MW of live IT power as of 30 June 2025, 30 MW on the current portfolio card, 78 MW planned, 130 to 133 MW at full build, and 180 MW scalable. Six figures for one campus. The registry counts 30 MW — the highest figure that describes a building rather than a plan — and this page explains why the other five matter.

2Six capacities for one campus
| Figure | Date | MW | Scope and source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Live IT power | 30 Jun 2025 | 25.92 | Sify Infinit Spaces, dated |
| Portfolio card | Oct 2026 | 30+ | Largest AI campus in Northern India |
| Planned | 2026 | 78 | Third-party specification listing |
| Full build | 2026 | 130 to 133 | Three towers, Sify and third-party |
| Scalable | Aug 2026 | 180 | Sify operations head at an AI lab launch |
| Older blog | Mar 2026 | 78 | Three towers, total capacity 78 MW |
| This registry | — | 30 | Highest figure describing a building |
The 180 MW figure is the newest and the largest and it comes from the most operational source of all — the head of data centre operations, at an event. He described 130 MW of available power capacity that can be scaled up to 180 MW, which resolves most of the confusion in one sentence: 130 is the built-and-designed ceiling, 180 is the site ceiling.
Which leaves three genuine figures: 25.92 MW live, 130 MW designed, 180 MW site ceiling. The 30, 78 and 133 are intermediate readings of the same three.
The card says 30+ MW and the dated figure says 25.92 MW live. Counting 30 MW treats the operator’s current claim as capacity; counting 25.92 MW treats a fourteen-month-old measurement as the truth.
The registry counts 30 MW because it is the operator’s current published capacity for a named campus, and because understating is the more dangerous error in a market where the counted total is already a floor.
But the page publishes 25.92 MW as the last measured figure beside it, so a reader who wants the conservative number has it. Both disciplines at once is the only honest option.
3Thirteen thousand racks, and a contradiction
The rack count is where the disclosed numbers stop agreeing with each other in a way that can be tested with arithmetic.
| Capacity | Racks | kW per rack | Reading |
|---|---|---|---|
| At 25.92 MW live | 13,000 racks | 2.0 | Enterprise cabinets, mostly unbuilt halls |
| At 30 MW on the card | 13,000 racks | 2.3 | Barely above the live figure |
| At 130 kW per rack, full build racks | 13,000 | 1,690 MW | Six times the campus ceiling |
| At 130 MW full build | 13,000 racks | 10.0 | Inconsistent with the 130 kW claim |
| At 130 MW and 130 kW per rack | 1,000 racks | 130.0 | The arithmetic that actually works |
| At 180 MW and 130 kW per rack | 1,385 racks | 130.0 | The site ceiling at AI density |
Something has to give. 13,000 racks multiplied by 130 kW is 1,690 MW — six times the campus ceiling. So the density and the rack count cannot both be true for the same halls.
The resolution is almost certainly that 13,000 racks is the enterprise-hall count across three towers, and 130 kW per rack is the capability of the NVIDIA-certified liquid-cooled pods inside them. Different products, one campus. Sify has built for both markets simultaneously.
That is a sensible strategy and it is completely invisible in any single number. A campus quoting 13,000 racks and 130 kW per rack is describing two businesses, and every published capacity figure split the difference somewhere.
Multiply the rack count by the advertised density. If the result exceeds the published megawatts by more than about 30%, the two numbers describe different products.
Applied across this registry, that test separates 7,000 racks at 15 kW (Yotta NM1: 105 MW implied against 52 MW published) from 13,000 racks at 130 kW (Noida 02: 1,690 MW implied against 130 MW published). Both are legitimate; neither is what a naive reading suggests.
It is a thirty-second calculation and it makes almost every Indian AI capacity claim auditable. Nothing else in this file does that as cheaply.
4Noida 01 and 02 as one resilience pair
| Element | Detail | Why a tenant pays for it |
|---|---|---|
| Distance | About 1 km | Close enough for synchronous replication |
| Fibre | Four diverse paths | Physical route diversity between the campuses |
| Power domains | Separate substations | Independent failure of one does not take the other |
| Combined capacity | 41 MW live and designed | Noida 01 at 10.96 plus 30 |
| Certification | Noida 02 is NVIDIA DGX-Ready | AI workloads land in the new tower |
| Interconnect | Direct to hyperscalers, OTT and cloud connect | The reason enterprises choose Noida at all |
A kilometre is a deliberately chosen distance: far enough that a single substation failure, fire or flood does not take both buildings, close enough that synchronous replication between them stays under a millisecond.
That is the product Delhi-NCR enterprises actually buy — two sites, one metro, one latency budget — and it is why the Noida cluster commands rents that a single greenfield campus outside the city cannot.
Combined, the two campuses are 41 MW of counted capacity. That would be 12.4% of Uttar Pradesh’s 331.1 MW from one operator in one city, before Yotta’s 180 MW of Greater Noida announcements are considered.
5The AI specification
Noida 02 is the most AI-specified building in Northern India and the detail is worth recording precisely.
| Item | Detail | Significance |
|---|---|---|
| NVIDIA certification | DGX-Ready, liquid cooling | Certified 2025; Rabale was first in India, 2024 |
| Density supported | 130 to 200 kW per rack | Against 3 kW in an enterprise hall |
| Cooling | Liquid cooling capable | Air cooling stops being economic around 25 kW |
| Substation | 220 kV dedicated | The connection a 130 MW campus requires |
| Commercial model | Pay-per-use GPU colocation | Competes with GPU cloud, not with colocation |
| Inauguration | March 2025 | By the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh |
| Green energy | Part of Sify’s 300+ MW contracted portfolio | A hyperscale procurement gate |
The 220 kV substation is the physical fact that makes the rest credible. Every published mega-campus in this registry connects at 220 kV or above — AirTrunk in Mumbai and Hyderabad, CapitaLand in Chennai, NTT, Colt, and now Sify. A campus quoting 130 MW without a switchyard of that class is making a land claim.
Pay-per-use GPU colocation is the commercial restructure worth noting. A traditional landlord rents racks at a fixed rate for a decade. A GPU colocation provider rents compute by the hour and absorbs utilisation risk. That is a technology business with a data centre attached, and it is where Sify, Yotta and the AI neoclouds are all converging.
For this registry the distinction has one practical consequence: a megawatt in Noida 02 is not worth the same as a megawatt in Noida 01, even though both are Sify and both are in Noida. One is leased to enterprises, the other is sold by the GPU-hour.

7Limits and open questions
- Six published capacities — 25.92, 30, 78, 130, 133 and 180 MW. The registry counts 30 MW.
- 25.92 MW is dated 30 June 2025 and is the last measured figure; the card figure is undated.
- 13,000 racks and 130 kW per rack cannot both describe the same halls — the product implies 1,690 MW against a 130 to 180 MW campus.
- 180 MW is a site ceiling stated verbally at an event, not in a filing.
- No floor area or site area is published, so no land-efficiency figure exists.
- 30 MW is counted, the highest figure describing a building, with 25.92 MW published beside it.
- What would close it. A per-tower schedule with megawatts and dates.
