The Hiranandani Group has demonstrated their vision of building a datacenter park in UP even before we’ve formally launched our Data Center Policy and UP’s first datacenter park will unlock a lot of possibilities which will play a key role in realizing the PM’s Digital India vision. Our biggest success is in creating an environment through our Business Reform Action Plan, where new investors coming to UP feel assured. UP government has moved up in the ease of doing business ranking over the past few years and is at number two in the country today.
