Anant Raj announced on Sunday that its subsidiary Anant Raj Cloud has partnered with AI infrastructure provider Submer to develop fully operational AI-ready data centres across India. According to a regulatory filing, the collaboration involves a memorandum of understanding (MoU) that will enable rapid deployment of high-density, energy-efficient computing platforms designed to support sovereign and enterprise AI workloads at scale. The partnership combines Submer's modular infrastructure and 'InferX' platform from Spain with Anant Raj's robust infrastructure and operational support capabilities. As reported by ANI, this project represents a major example of how Europe and India are working together to bring advanced liquid-cooling and AI technology from Europe to India, and serves as a primary example of the EU-India Trade Deal in action. The collaboration will be showcased at the India AI Impact Summit 2026, where Submer and Anant Raj will demonstrate their single, accountable approach to deploying AI infrastructure faster and more sustainably.
With campuses in Manesar and Panchkula, Haryana, Anant Raj is expanding from traditional colocation and cloud services into utility-grade AI infrastructure designed for high-density, GPU-intensive workloads. The collaboration will bring world-class liquid-cooling technology from Spain and combine it with India's existing infrastructure capabilities. According to ANI, the facilities will use high-density and energy-efficient systems that will enable businesses and the government to run large-scale AI programs with lower power consumption. The partnership also focuses on making better use of space, with Dev Tyagi, President of UKI, India, and Asia at Submer, noting that this plan "supports far higher computing capacity in the same physical footprint." Combined with Submer's neocloud and inference platform, InferX, the partnership enables customers to access AI-ready infrastructure and compute through a unified, end-to-end model aligned with India's sovereignty requirements. The collaboration leverages Submer's full-stack AI infrastructure capabilities, including modular datacenter infrastructure, liquid cooling technologies, and prefabricated MEP systems.
Amit Sarin, Managing Director of Anant Raj Limited, stated that partnering with Submer and InferX to deliver sustainable AI data centres and cloud services at speed provides the perfect solution to support economic growth. According to ANI, Sarin expressed pride in leading AI efforts in India and noted that these investments align with the Prime Minister's vision for a self-reliant India. Patrick Smets, CEO of Submer, noted that India is at a pivotal moment in its digital transformation, combining Submer's modular data centre infrastructure with Anant Raj's existing capabilities to bring high-performance AI compute online fast while significantly reducing environmental impact. Dev Tyagi emphasized that this creates a sovereign and sustainable path for AI adoption with speed and scale, establishing a blueprint for industrialized, AI application-ready datacenters that can be replicated across India.
This partnership aligns with the 2026-27 Union Budget's goals to make India a hub for AI and semiconductors. As reported by ANI, the facilities will help India keep its data secure and support the 'Digital India' mission. The collaboration combines Submer's modular datacenter infrastructure, liquid cooling technologies and prefabricated MEP systems with Anant Raj's existing Data Centre Infrastructure & Cloud Services and campus development capabilities. Dev Tyagi emphasized that this creates a sovereign and sustainable path for AI adoption with speed and scale, supporting far higher computing capacity in the same physical footprint. The collaboration strengthens a single, accountable source for AI datacenter design, build and scalable operation, supporting the transition from vision to action while advancing the summit's "Planet" and "Progress" principles.
