Chennai is the fourth largest city in India, situated in the southern state of Tamil Nadu, with a population of more than 10 million individuals, as well as economic sectors like car manufacturing, computer hardware manufacturing, human services, and data innovation. It is India's second largest cable landing station after Mumbai, located in the southern region of the nation. There are distinctive submarine links arriving from the Bay of Bengal Gateway (BBG), SeaMeWe-4, BRICS, Tata TGN-Tata Indicom, and i2i Cable Network (i2icn) to Chennai

Chennai also has one of the content-richest ecosystems in the south-east, after Mumbai. It is closer to Singapore, which is the most important regional hub in the Asia-Pacific. Opening a peering hub in Chennai is critical for the advancement of the Internet in this area, and we are glad to encourage interconnection between national systems and global players.
