Kundu works to enhance market efficiency through robust platform for brokers
The Metropolitan Stock Exchange of India (MSE), a SEBI-recognized national stock exchange, has selected NTT Global Data Centres’ Chandivali Data Centre campus in Mumbai to support its next-generation trading platform and strategic relaunch initiative.
The deployment will provide 6.4 MW of high-density IT load capacity, enabling MSE to modernize its technology backbone with enhanced performance, resilience and scalability to support multi-asset trading across capital markets, derivatives and debt.
MSE’s transformation comes as India’s capital markets undergo rapid evolution, with increasing demand for speed, transparency and fault-tolerant infrastructure. By leveraging NTT Global Data Centres’ hyperscale-ready campus, MSE is strengthening its ability to deliver ultra-low-latency trading, real-time risk management and high availability for market participants.
“Modern capital markets depend on infrastructure that can deliver both speed and resilience at scale,” said Latika S Kundu, MD & CEO for MSE. “This partnership enables us to accelerate our technology roadmap, enhance market efficiency, and provide a robust platform for brokers, institutional participants and investors.”
Located within NTT Global Data Centres’ Chandivali campus, India’s largest operational data centre park, the deployment provides MSE with access to a highly interconnected ecosystem of carriers, cloud providers and financial services firms. This proximity significantly reduces latency for high-frequency trading and market data dissemination, while ensuring resilient connectivity through multiple fiber paths.
The high-density environment supports 52U racks of up to 17.2 kW power to each rack, enabling next-generation workloads including advanced trading engines, algorithmic trading platforms and AI-driven market surveillance systems. Combined with advanced cooling technologies and optimized rack design, the solution improves energy efficiency while enabling future growth.
“Stock exchanges represent some of the most mission-critical infrastructure in any economy,” said Vimal Kaw, Vice President and Country Managing Director, India, for NTT Global Data Centres. “We are proud to support MSE as it builds a high-performance, future-ready trading platform that can scale with India’s rapidly growing financial markets.”
The Chandivali campus is a core component of NTT Global Data Centres’ broader Mumbai data center ecosystem, which integrates multiple locations across the region to deliver high resiliency and business continuity. This architecture enables customers to scale operations seamlessly while maintaining strict uptime and recovery requirements.
For MSE, the partnership strengthens its ability to attract liquidity providers and expand participation across India’s capital markets, supported by a modernized infrastructure designed for reliability, speed and secure operations.
This collaboration marks a significant step forward in the modernization of India’s financial market infrastructure, reinforcing the role of advanced data centre platforms in enabling the next phase of growth for exchanges, financial institutions and digital trading ecosystems.
