PRASA has inaugurated a dedicated modular data centre manufacturing facility in the Mulshi industrial belt near Pune, developed with an initial investment of over ₹20 crore and planned investments expected to exceed ₹60 crore.
Spread across nearly 40,000 sq. ft., the plant manufactures modular data centre infrastructure including containerised data centres, DFMA skids, cooling skids, power skids, prefabricated steel structures and integrated infrastructure systems used in mission-critical environments. The facility is designed to reduce deployment timelines by shifting a significant portion of data centre construction activities to a controlled manufacturing environment, improving consistency, quality assurance and project execution efficiency.
The plant is expected to support hyperscale operators, colocation providers, telecom companies, cloud firms, enterprise customers and AI-focused data centre projects. It will also generate more than 650 direct and indirect employment opportunities across engineering, fabrication, logistics, project management, quality assurance and supply chain operations.
According to Jay Burse, Chief Vision Officer at PRASA, the increasing scale of AI, cloud and enterprise technologies is creating a need for faster and more predictable infrastructure development models, a gap this facility is designed to address.
The plant currently includes partial solar power integration, with plans for increased renewable energy adoption and future investments in automation, advanced manufacturing technologies and precision engineering over the next three to five years.
