TCS and AMD to bring ‘Helios’ rack-scale AI architecture to India

200 MW AI-ready data centre blueprint to support sovereign AI initiatives.

Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and AMD have expanded collaboration to bring AMD’s “Helios” rack-scale AI architecture to India.

TCS, through its subsidiary HyperVault AI Data Center Limited (HyperVault), will co-develop a rack-scale AI infrastructure design based on the AMD “Helios” platform in support of India’s national AI initiatives and sovereign AI factories.

Enterprises across India will gain access to a new 200 MW deployment built on the Helios architecture.

TCS established HyperVault in 2025 with the vision of delivering GW-scale, secure, and reliable AI‑ready infrastructure for hyperscalers, AI companies, and global enterprises.

AMD’s chair and CEO, Lisa Su, said, AI adoption is accelerating from pilots to large-scale deployments, and that shift requires a new blueprint for compute infrastructure. With 'Helios,' the company is delivering an open, rack-scale AI platform designed for performance, efficiency, and long-term flexibility.

Together with TCS, the aim is to enable enterprises across India to deploy AI at scale today while building the compute foundation of tomorrow, Su added.

The platform is powered by AMD Instinct MI455X GPUs, next-generation AMD EPYC “Venice” CPUs, AMD Pensando Vulcano NICs and the ROCm open software ecosystem.

As part of the collaboration, both companies will offer an AI-ready data centre blueprint supporting up to 200 MW of capacity.

They will also work with hyperscalers and AI companies to accelerate data centre build-outs in India.

The Helios platform is designed as a rack-scale AI infrastructure to support large-scale AI training and inference workloads.

It aims to improve operational efficiency and reduce time-to-deployment for enterprise customers across industries.

In November 2025, TCS announced a strategic partnership with TPG to support the growth of HyperVault, with a combined commitment of up to Rs 18,000 crore through a mix of equity and debt to develop AI data centres with capacity in excess of one gigawatt over the next few years.

The company has also been in discussions with global AI and cloud players including Microsoft, Amazon Web Services, Google and Nvidia to co-develop enterprise solutions under the HyperVault platform.

TCS is understood to have explored engagement with OpenAI as a potential anchor customer as it builds out its AI data centre ecosystem.
