Market data · NASSCOM & Zinnov, FY2024–25
A Global Capability Center is a captive hub an enterprise owns and governs — offshore, nearshore or right-shore — to deliver strategic, high-value work across technology, engineering, analytics, finance and operations.
Unlike traditional outsourcing, the roadmap, the people and the intellectual property stay yours. Modern GCCs have moved well beyond cost arbitrage into product ownership, R&D and AI. They are strategic assets, not cost centers.
From the first business case to an AI-first hub and beyond — we advise, build, run and transform, then hand over on your terms.

Work moved in cleanly, then run to standard, day after day.
From cost center to an AI-first value engine that leads global work.
A clean handover on your terms — or continued managed operation.
Business case, feasibility, location benchmarking and operating-model design.
Legal entity, compliance, facilities, IT and leadership hiring.
Transition, knowledge transfer, managed run and KPI governance.
Centers of Excellence, AI enablement and platform engineering.
Clean handover of ownership — or continued managed operation.
Modern centers own end-to-end capability — far beyond back-office support.
We shape the commercial and control model around your risk appetite and pace.
Six metros anchor roughly 90% of the ecosystem, each with a distinct talent character — with fast-emerging tier-two hubs behind them.
Tier-two cities — Coimbatore, Kochi, GIFT City (Ahmedabad), Jaipur and Indore — are attracting a growing share of new, cost-efficient "nano-GCCs." 100% FDI is permitted under the automatic route, with SEZ tax incentives available.
Capability centers are moving from cost arbitrage to innovation arbitrage — and the gap between AI leaders and laggards is widening fast.
