India’s Global Capability Centres are stepping into a new era of innovation, talent diversification and regional expansion in 2025. With the National Policy on GCCs set to transform them from support hubs into capability-led innovation centres, the sector is on track to surpass 2,500 centres by 2030 and generate over $100 billion in annual revenue, as projected by ICRA. Global giants like
@Microsoft and
@GoldmanSachs continue to strengthen their India footprint, solidifying the nation’s position as the world’s GCC capital.
From Walmart Global Tech India’s 465,000-square-foot facility in Chennai to
@Rakuten $100 million investment in scaling its India workforce, multinational corporations are doubling down on India’s tech talent. Companies like
@EntainGroup and
@AstraZeneca are also expanding operations, with the latter investing ₹166 crore to grow its Bengaluru hub and add 400 new roles focused on AI-driven research and innovation. Meanwhile, Medtronic’s $50 million GCC in Pune marks a new chapter in healthcare technology, creating hundreds of jobs and fostering advancements in diabetes care.
The momentum extends across sectors and cities, with First Citizens Bank opening a new Bengaluru office to boost enterprise operations, DAZN setting up a global sports operations centre in Hyderabad with a ₹500 crore investment, and Assent launching an Innovation and Technology Centre in Pune to drive AI-led supply chain sustainability. Guidewire Software, too, is scaling its presence by doubling its India workforce. Together, these expansions reflect a defining shift in India’s GCC landscape—one driven by innovation, inclusion and global collaboration.
This is where the future of Global Capability Centers takes shape. See you at MachineCon GCC Summit 2025-
