Dell Technologies’ AI Factory with NVIDIA has partnered with NxtGen AI to set up what the companies describe as India’s first and largest dedicated AI factory, a move aimed at supporting large-scale AI development across the country.
As part of the deployment, Dell will supply the core AI infrastructure to NxtGen, including liquid-cooled Dell PowerEdge XE9685L servers, delivered through Dell Integrated Rack Scalable Systems. The new AI facility is designed to handle demanding workloads such as generative AI, agentic AI, physical AI, and high-performance computing, serving enterprises, startups, academic institutions, and government-led initiatives.
Built to Support India’s Sovereign AI Ambitions
The AI factory will be built around a cluster of more than 4,000 NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs, supported by NVIDIA BlueField-3 DPUs and NVIDIA Spectrum-X Ethernet networking. The setup will also include Dell PowerEdge R670 servers and Dell PowerScale F710 storage, enabling large-scale training and inference operations.
Dell said the deployment will significantly expand NxtGen’s AI-as-a-service capabilities and GPU availability across India, while aligning with the country’s broader AI ambitions.
Manish Gupta, president and managing director for India at Dell Technologies, said India’s fast-growing AI ecosystem requires dependable and future-ready infrastructure. He added that the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA is built to simplify AI adoption and help organisations scale deployments across industries, with the collaboration bringing advanced AI capabilities closer to Indian businesses.
NxtGen described the project as a major step forward for sovereign AI infrastructure in India. According to the company, the deployment represents the country’s largest AI model-training cluster, built and operated entirely within India’s sovereign cloud environment.
NVIDIA said the infrastructure will help accelerate India’s AI goals by providing high-performance computing resources for building and deploying AI models and applications.
Dell added that its AI Factory with NVIDIA combines infrastructure, software, and services into a full-stack platform, allowing organisations to deploy and scale AI workloads across data centres and edge environments. The company said the partnership underscores its focus on delivering scalable, sovereign AI infrastructure tailored for the Indian market.
