Budget 2026: Tax proposals and opportunities in India data centers
Welcome to the Budget 2026 series on EY India Insights. In this episode, Vishal Malhotra, Tax Leader – Technology, Media & Entertainment and Telecom, EY India unpacks one of the most significant announcements—the long‑term tax holiday for data centers.
He explains the implications of the policy on global cloud providers and domestic data center operators, which contribute to India’s ambition to emerge as an AI and cloud global hub.
Vishal explains the impact of the new tax holiday, extending up to 2047, on resolving tax uncertainties around permanent establishment risks, cross‑border attribution, and the classification of payments between Indian entities and global majors. He adds that even without the tax benefit, India’s cost advantages are attractive and create opportunities for Indian companies.
