AMD Takes Helios AI Infrastructure to India in Expanded TCS Partnership
In Focus
- The AMD-TCS partnership will deploy 200 MW of Helios AI data center in India
- TCS will create AI systems architecture through its subsidiary, HyperVault Data Center
- India’s AI systems architecture will be powered by AMD’s Instinct M1455X GPUs
Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) has expanded its partnership with IT services provider Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) to deploy 200 megawatt of Helios AI infrastructure in India. According to TechCircle, the partnership will facilitate sovereign AI infrastructure and enhance large-scale adoption of artificial intelligence technology by enterprises.
AMD, TCS Will Build Rack-Level AI System Architecture
Under the AMD TCS AI infrastructure partnership, the IT services firm will develop a rack-level AI systems architecture through its subsidiary, HyperVault AI Data Center. The AI systems architecture will be supported by AMD’s Helios AI platform, which the U.S. chipmaker unveiled last month at the CES 2026 event.
The purpose of this initiative is to create a reference architecture for sovereign AI factories and advanced data centres that support hyperscalers, AI-focused businesses, and major enterprises.
“This collaboration lays the foundation for AMD’s first ‘Helios’ powered AI infrastructure in India. By combining our strengths in AI, connectivity, sustainable power, and advanced data center engineering, we are poised to deliver state-of-the-art infrastructure solutions for AI companies and global enterprises,” TCS CEO, K. Krithivasan said in a press release posted on AMD’s website.
AMD’s GPUs Will Power India’s AI Architecture
AMD will use its Instinct M1455X GPUs to power India’s AI systems architecture. The chipmaker also signed a deal with OpenAI to supply 6 gigawatts of Instinct GPUs last year. The AI infrastructure will also feature Pensando Vulcano NICs, next-generation EPYC ‘Venice’ CPUs, and the open ROCm software ecosystem.
According to the two companies, India’s rack-level infrastructure will support AI training and inference, while enhancing deployment speeds and operational efficiency for enterprise clients. AMD and TCS will provide an AI-ready data center blueprint for India that’s capable of scaling to 200 MW.
The two companies will also partner with hyperscalers and AI companies to fast-track data center construction in India. The AMD TCS 200MW AI data center collaboration comes amid rising demand for domestic AI compute capacity as enterprises ramp up production-scale AI adoption.
“AI adoption is accelerating from pilots to large-scale deployments, and that shift requires a new blueprint for compute infrastructure. With ‘Helios,’ we are delivering an open, rack-scale AI platform designed for performance, efficiency, and long-term flexibility. Together with TCS, we are enabling enterprises across India to deploy AI at scale today while building the compute foundation of tomorrow,” AMD Chair and CEO Lisa Su noted in a website post.
New Partnership Builds on Previous Collaboration
The latest announcement expands on a previous strategic partnership between AMD and TCS.
The collaboration was aimed at accelerating enterprise AI adoption and upgrading hybrid IT projects.
The partnership aligns with India’s broader push to strengthen local AI capabilities and digital public infrastructure. Founded in 2025, TCS’s HyperVault was established to develop secure, gigawatt-scale, and AI-optimised infrastructure to meet the needs of enterprise and hyperscale clients.
