What Lumina CloudInfra does

Lumina CloudInfra was an India-focused hyperscale data center developer and operator that built, owned, and leased large-scale colocation infrastructure across India's Tier-1 cities. Its product was carrier-neutral, multi-megawatt data center capacity designed for hyperscale cloud providers, AI companies, and large enterprises running cloud workloads, AI infrastructure, and digital transformation projects requiring high power density and rack flexibility. Technically, Lumina's facilities incorporated AI/ML-based video analytics for multi-layered physical security, liquid immersion cooling for high-density workloads, lithium-ion battery backup systems in place of traditional UPS, and 48-hour power backup capability, with sustainability certifications including LEED Platinum (USGBC), ISO 14001, and ISO 50001, and cybersecurity practices aligned to US FedRAMP and CSA-Star standards. The company was pursuing approximately 600 MW of planned capacity across Mumbai, Chennai, Hyderabad, Pune, and Delhi/NCR, representing up to US$5 billion in development potential, against a backdrop of India's data center capacity projected to grow from 1.5 GW to 10 GW by 2030.

Commercially, Lumina operated a B2B hyperscale go-to-market through direct enterprise sales targeting a horizontal customer base of cloud providers, AI companies, and large enterprises. Revenue mechanics were built on long-term, multi-year colocation subscription contracts priced by rack size, power density, and workload requirements — pricing was not publicly disclosed, and specific customer logos were not disclosed in available sources. The company was backed by Blackstone and CPPIB through AirTrunk, the Asia Pacific & Middle East hyperscale data center platform, and in April 2026 AirTrunk acquired Lumina to enter India. Following the acquisition, Lumina's operations were integrated into AirTrunk's platform, lifting combined capacity to 3GW+ across 20 campuses in six markets, and the Lumina website now displays a transition notice: "Lumina is Now AirTrunk."
