Turbocharging Bharat’s Economic Engines

Overview

Global Capability Centres (GCCs) are vital hubs within multinational corporations, providing centralized global support across functions like IT services, finance, R&D, and customer support. These centres bolster India’s economy, driving export success by leveraging local talent nurtured through robust educational systems. Supported by favourable government policies, a conducive regulatory environment, advanced IT infrastructure, and cost efficiencies, India stands as a premier destination for GCC setups. Embracing technologies such as AI, machine learning, and data analytics, GCCs enhance efficiency and foster business growth, boosting India’s global competitiveness.

Future-focused talent development initiatives and educational collaborations are poised to fuel digital transformation, ensuring sustained sectoral growth and economic advancement. Hyderabad’s rise as a prime GCC destination surpasses major cities. According to the ‘India GCC Trends – Half Yearly Analysis H1CY2023’, Hyderabad and Bengaluru tied with 11 new GCCs each. The report highlights India hosting over 1580 GCCs by FY2023, with 1.66 million professionals and a market size of US$46 billion growing at 11.4% annually.

The report details for new GCCs in Hyderabad: one focuses on advanced battery modelling and machine learning in electrical/electronics, another on engineering design, sourcing, supply chain, and IT in retail, a third on next-gen hardware/software in telecom, and a fourth on Oligonucleotide research in pharmaceuticals.
