CtrlS inaugurates ₹400 crore Patna data centre; Bodh Gaya plan remains an LOI

Milestone date: 13 October 2026. Verified: 16 October 2026.

What happened

CtrlS inaugurated its Patna data centre in the Patliputra Industrial Area on 13 October, according to reporting of the company announcement. The investment was put at ₹400 crore and capacity at 12 MW. Separately, the company submitted a letter of intent for a proposed 150 MW facility at Bodh Gaya, involving an indicated ₹10,000 crore investment.

Why it matters

Patna gains an additional local digital-infrastructure asset for enterprise and institutional workloads. The larger Bodh Gaya figure describes a future proposal, not money already spent or capacity commissioned.

What to watch next

For Patna, watch customer onboarding and disclosed utilisation. For Bodh Gaya, watch definitive agreements, land, approvals and a confirmed construction schedule.

Source and verification

The report distinguishes the inaugurated Patna asset from the proposed Bodh Gaya development. Inauguration alone does not disclose occupancy or utilisation.
