Raiden Infotech India Private Limited, a Google Inc. company, in a bid to expand the cloud infrastructure to cater to the growing demand in India, has rented 3.81 lakh sq ft of data centre space in Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation's industrial estate in Navi Mumbai for 28 years from Amanthin Info Parks Private Limited. According to documents accessed by CRE Matrix, a real estate data analytics firm, the company will pay a monthly rent of Rs 8.83 crore.

The agreement to sublease was signed between Raiden Infotech India and the licensor, Amanthin Infor Parks, and the MIDC, which has leased the land to the licensor. The agreement also had an escalation clause, according to which there will be a rent escalation of 1.75 percent annually.

Amanthin Info Parks, the licensor, is owned by Everyondr, a joint venture between Everstone Group and data centre firm Yondr Group.

The tech giant's data centre is expected to be completed by 2025.
