Indian consumers are among the major consumers of social media services. Facebook has almost equal number of users in India in comparison to the US. Data localization will necessitate storing all consumer-related data that includes the need for Facebook and other social network platforms to store its data and skyrocketing data center demand in India.

 

The Indian cloud market is estimated to be $4.5 billion by 2020. The IaaS adoption is likely to grow at a CAGR of 20% between 2020 and 2025. Data localization is likely to increase the physical presence of cloud service providers, thereby increasing data center service revenue in the country. The data localization mandate is increasing data center business in India as there is a need to store over 60% of data that is being stored in data centers across the globe.

 

What is the Impact of the Current COVID-19 Pandemic in the India Market?

 

The spread of COVID-19 has put a halt on various data center construction projects in India. Analysts at Arizton expect that the pandemic will have a moderate impact on upcoming projects scheduled to be opened in Q4 2020 and Q1 2021. However, the spread of Covid-19 has significantly increased data traffic from March 2020.

 

The rapid spread of COVID-19 has significantly increased data traffic from March 2020. To provide high availability services, operators are taking precautionary measures for their on-site employees. Therefore, the COVID-19 impact on data center operations is expected to be low in India.

 

What are Key Factors Attracting Investments in India?

 

State governments in the country are attracting Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) through tax incentives. Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, and Telangana have announced incentives for data center development in the last two years. It will also support the steady growth of wholesale colocation. The majority of local data center service providers offer cloud-based services to end-users in India, which contributes to their data center service revenue.
