AM Intelligence (AMI), the AI infrastructure platform set up by Greenko promoters, has placed a binding order for approximately 9,000 Nvidia Rubin GPUs. The chips will be deployed at its first AI factory in Hyderabad in the first quarter of 2027, making it one of Asia's first large-scale uses of Nvidia's next-generation Vera Rubin architecture.
The Hyderabad facility is the initial phase of AMI's plan to establish 1 gigawatt of compute-as-a-service capacity across India, the US, Finland and Malaysia. AMI plans to bring an initial 200 megawatt of capacity to market soon, involving a capital expenditure exceeding $8 billion. The company is also developing 5 GW of AI data centre capacity across India, the US and Europe.
The Hyderabad AI factory is designed to run trillion-parameter models and next-generation agentic AI applications. It will deliver approximately 450 exaFLOPS of inference compute using the new NVFP4 low-precision computing format. AMI chairman Anil Chalamalasetty said the company is converting power infrastructure into frontier AI compute at scale.
Indian Opinion Analysis
AMI is betting on a massive capital-intensive model that integrates energy generation with AI computing. The company's promoters built Greenko, one of India's largest renewable energy firms, and are now leveraging that experience to secure power for AI factories. The 9,000-GPU order is a fraction of the planned capacity, but the binding order signals serious commitment. The real test will be execution: raising $8 billion-plus capital, building the liquid-cooled data centres, and securing uninterrupted power for 200 MW of compute load. With Nvidia's Vera Rubin chips not yet in production, AMI is front-running a market where GPU supply is tight and global hyperscalers are competing for the same hardware. The company's ability to deliver on time and cost will determine whether this becomes a blueprint for Indian AI infrastructure or an overhang of unfulfilled ambition.
The government's production-linked incentive scheme for electronics manufacturing and its data centre policy will be key enablers for AMI's timeline.
