Setting up a GCC in India or just about anywhere isn’t just about finding office space, hiring talent, or getting tax incentives. It’s about how well you understand the context, not just the construct.

While it’s easy to assume that if you have built global teams elsewhere before, it’d be the same in India, but India doesn’t play by the same playbook.

India plays by its own, with its regulatory nuances, talent dynamics, and execution realities demanding something more. You’d need a partner who is well connected, has proven expertise, who knows the lay of the land, who can anticipate roadblocks before they appear, and someone who understands when to pick up on speed and when to be patient.

But here’s the catch, not surprisingly, the wrong partner can set you back just as much. Over-dependence. Poor governance. A model that scales fast but not smart. We’ve seen it happen.

So what truly separates the right partner? Someone with deep operational fluency, who has transparent processes, no-surprises communication, alignment with your culture and vision, and someone who you can trust.

Someone who will help you build your GCC right with speed while you retain the full control of the enterprise.

Because in India, as with anywhere else, it’s not just #what you build that matters. It’s also #who you build it with.

We are building something exciting! And we are weeks away from announcing it.
