India’s digital economy is scaling new heights, propelled by an increasing demand for cloud computing, AI, and data-intensive services. As businesses pivot towards smart infrastructure, the need for robust, secure, and scalable data centers has never been more crucial. Against this exciting backdrop, Khed City proudly welcomes DC&T Global, an engineering and design consulting powerhouse known for its turnkey infrastructure capabilities, to its growing family of future-forward industries.
DC&T Global has acquired 8.5 acres of land at Khed City, where it will soon commence construction of a cutting-edge facility dedicated to data center development and modular digital infrastructure. This marks the beginning of a promising partnership that not only reflects India’s evolving data needs but also highlights Khed City’s ability to attract new-age sectors beyond traditional manufacturing.
DC&T Global – Building the Backbone of Digital Infrastructure
DC&T Global is not just another infrastructure company. It is a visionary enterprise that blends engineering precision with technology-led innovation to deliver modern, efficient, and sustainable solutions. The company has built its reputation on delivering complex, high-performance facilities across sectors — and is now bringing its expertise in data center builds and modular deployments to Maharashtra.
By focusing on scalable architecture, energy efficiency, and rapid deployment, DC&T Global is addressing some of the most critical demands of the digital era. Their modular data centers are especially designed for agility, offering flexible, high-performance solutions that can adapt to rapidly changing workloads and regional demands.
Their arrival at Khed City signals a key shift — the emergence of data infrastructure as a vital new industry vertical in our integrated ecosystem.
Why Khed City?
DC&T Global’s decision to set up its new facility at Khed City is no coincidence. As one of India’s most advanced industrial parks, Khed City offers a future-ready platform for enterprises that demand more than just land — they need speed, scale, and certainty.
Developed as a joint venture between the Kalyani Group and MIDC, Khed City is located just 50 km from Pune and is strategically connected to the Mumbai–Pune Expressway, Pune–Nashik highway, and other major logistical corridors. But what truly sets it apart is the strength of its on-ground infrastructure — uninterrupted power supply, abundant water resources, and clear-title plots that allow companies to begin construction almost immediately.
For data center developers, where power reliability and cooling infrastructure are non-negotiables, Khed City checks all the right boxes. Add to that a transparent model and a fast-track allotment process, and it becomes clear why innovators like DC&T Global are choosing Khed City as their base of operations.
Expanding Horizons: A Hub of Global Manufacturing and Digital Growth
With DC&T Global’s arrival, Khed City adds yet another dynamic layer to its diverse industrial community — one that already includes global leaders in power, communication, automotive, and FMCG sectors.
Khed City is home to South Korea’s Hyosung T&D, a leader in power infrastructure technologies, and Aberdare Technologies, a global name in optical fiber manufacturing and part of the Hengtong Group of China. These companies represent a strong foundation in infrastructure and connectivity — complementary sectors to the data center industry.
In the OEM and machinery domain, global brands like Zoomlion have established their footprint here, contributing to heavy-duty industrial innovation. The automotive and auto component ecosystem is equally impressive, with Maxion Wheels, Hyundai EP, Hyundai WIA, Gestamp, UnoMinda, YongSan, Autogen, Sandhar, Kalyani Technoforge, ADR Axle, and Gedia creating a thriving, export-oriented cluster that powers global supply chains. Meanwhile, household names like Mars Chocolate and Amul India brings strength to the FMCG and food processing sectors, ensuring diversity across the board.
This convergence of traditional manufacturing with digital infrastructure development positions Khed City as a truly multiproduct, multi-sector destination — ready to support India’s ambitions in manufacturing, technology, and smart infrastructure alike.
Looking Ahead
DC&T Global’s entry is more than just a land acquisition — it’s a strategic statement. It reaffirms Khed City’s role as a catalyst for India’s digital transformation, offering not just land, but the right environment, infrastructure, and momentum needed to thrive in a connected world.
As construction begins on their new facility, we look forward to seeing DC&T Global contribute to India’s data resilience and digital future, from the very heart of Maharashtra’s industrial powerhouse.
