Colt Data Centre Services announced its entry into India by opening a facility in Navi Mumbai and committing to an investment of USD 865 million.

Pratap Mane, the company's India head, stated that the first phase of the facility in Navi Mumbai has cost USD 115 million.

Mane stated that the company will invest another USD 750 million across the country, bringing the total investment to USD 865 million, without specifying a timeline for the investment.
