The Telangana government has attracted 150 Global Capability Centers (GCCs) over the past 20 months, according to the state's IT minister.
The Telangana government announced that it has attracted 150 Global Capability Centers (GCCs) in the last 20 months, a milestone highlighted by the state's IT minister. GCCs are large, long‑term operations set up by multinational companies to provide services such as software development, analytics and customer support.
The figure represents a significant uptick in the state's IT ecosystem, reflecting Telangana’s growing reputation as a hub for tech talent and infrastructure. Over the same period, the state has seen a steady increase in the number of companies establishing regional offices and research centres.
Government officials cited a range of incentives—tax breaks, land allotments, and streamlined regulatory processes—as key drivers of this growth. The state’s focus on building world‑class data centres and expanding broadband connectivity has also played a role.
Industry analysts predict that the influx of GCCs will boost employment, create high‑skill jobs, and further integrate Telangana into the global digital economy.
