Top 6 Tier 2 Cities in India Emerging as GCC Hotspots

Synopsis: India’s tier-II cities are emerging as the new frontier for global capability centers. As metro cities are growing more expensive, Tier 2 cities are offering attractive opportunities to launch GCC hubs there.

GCCs are a corporate entity where multinational companies create offshore hubs for critical functions such as IT, finance, analytics, HR, and R&D. GCC is entering into tier 2 cities to reduce costs in terms of talent acquisition, cost of living, infrastructure, and government support. This will boost its economy.
