Speaking about the new venture, Niranjan Hiranandani, founder and managing director of the Hiranandani Group, said: “The Digital India program is one of the key pillars of the prime minister’s vision of India becoming a USD 5-trillion economy by 2025. We envision a huge opportunity with the data localisation and protection act to be announced soon by the government of India, in order to regulate the data management business. This will give a big impetus to the data storage business to grow domestically at an exponential pace, bringing a paradigm shift to the Indian economy.”
