Setup Your Global Capability Center in India
We drive your GCC setup in India. From location strategy and site selection to workspace execution, we coordinate your global capability center setup as one team. We are part of the Pattem group, which runs its own engineering teams in India.
Every GCC Setup in India Requires a Unique Plan
Launching a first-time global capability center is completely different from a standard GCC expansion, an engineering hub, or a shared-services operation. Your GCC strategy depends on what capabilities you are building, the specific talent you need to hire, and how quickly your teams plan to scale.
A successful GCC office space must fundamentally support the business operations behind it. Before diving into complex property decisions, our expert GCC advisory teams evaluate your core functions, workflow dynamics, and long-term expansion goals to secure the ideal real estate.
Effective GCC consulting starts by defining your exact business needs before recommending a target city, or workplace location.

Compare What Matters
Look beyond standard rent. Consider talent pools, connectivity, infrastructure, operational costs, and future expansion.

Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers to the most critical real estate and operational questions facing enterprises planning a successful global capability center setup across major Indian tech markets.
A global capability center is a wholly-owned offshore unit established by global enterprises to perform critical, high-value operations such as software engineering, R&D, and data analytics. Unlike traditional outsourcing where tasks are handed to third-party vendors, a GCC operates as a direct, culturally integrated extension of the parent company, retaining full control over intellectual property and business strategy.
An expert GCC consulting partner runs your entire setup as one coordinated process. By managing complex regulatory compliance, commercial real estate negotiations, and vendor management, they eliminate the costly handoff gaps and timeline slippages that frequently derail first-time market entries.
Your GCC location strategy must be dictated by your specific functional mandate. Decision-makers must look beyond base rental costs and evaluate deep tech talent pools, micro-market connectivity, local infrastructure, competing GCC demand, and the availability of contiguous floor plates for future expansion.
A build-to-suit model grants mature GCCs complete control over their physical infrastructure and brand identity. It allows enterprises to architect highly customized environments, integrate specialized tech or R&D facilities, and secure the exact spatial footprint required to support significant, long-term headcount scaling without compromising on design.
Establishing a GCC requires strict adherence to complex corporate compliance, including entity incorporation, FEMA reporting, GST registration, and the new Indian Labour Codes. Operationally, centers demand enterprise-grade IT infrastructure, robust cloud cybersecurity frameworks, and integrated facility management to ensure the physical environment matches global headquarters standards.
Managed offices can often get a new GCC running in 30 to 90 days with little upfront spend, bypassing the 9 to 18 months required for a conventional commercial build-out. This model de-risks the execution-heavy early phase and provides built-in flexibility to scale headcount before locking into a permanent real estate structure.
Secure your expansion with a tailored GCC workplace strategy.
