Bengaluru is a Tier 1 GCC location. The deepest software, R&D and deep-tech talent pool and the largest GCC cluster in the country.
India now hosts 2,117 GCCs across 3,728 units, employing 2.36 million professionals and generating $98.4 billion a year, with 2,500+ projected by 2030 (Source: NASSCOM Research, Zinnov and UnearthInsight).
Karnataka GCC Policy 2024-2029 is India's first dedicated state GCC policy. Beyond-Bengaluru clusters (Mysuru, Mangaluru, Hubballi-Dharwad-Belagavi) carry the richest incentives: lease rental reimbursement, EPF contribution reimbursement for new employees, electricity duty exemption for five years, R&D infrastructure grants, and recruitment assistance for GCCs of 100 or more employees. Nano-GCC support covers 5 to 50 employee units. Bengaluru itself is Tier-1 and draws the ecosystem rather than the cost incentives.
