GCCs of multinationals may hire half a million in India this fiscal​


Huge numbers, would also mean office space absorption of more than 30 million square feet by GCCs alone. Great news for commercial office developers as well.
A combination of factors including wide availability of specialised skilled professionals, especially in the areas of technology, digital, analytics and AI, as well as a favourable cost environment make India a preferred destination, said top executives at Citi, PwC, EY and Grant Thornton.

According to EY estimates, the GCC headcount in the country is currently about 2 million.

This is estimated to increase to 4.5 million by 2030.

Citigroup, which recently exited its consumer banking business in India, is among those looking at a talent acquisition spree. Head of human resources Sara Wechter said Citi Solution Centres (CSCs) in India will hire at least 5,000 people in the next two years, taking the strength to more than 32,000 from 27,000 now. The focus will be on specialised skills in the areas of engineering, technology, analytics, AI, cloud and risk among others.

"India is a favoured ground for GCCs due to its robust engineering and technology arbitrage, along with a mature startup ecosystem," said Jaspreet Singh, partner, Grant Thornton Bharat. The emphasis on innovation, coupled with cost-effectiveness, enhances the appeal.

PwC India plans to double headcount at its Regional Delivery Centre in next two-three years, said Shirin Sehgal, deputy people officer.

"Over the last two years, our Regional Delivery Centre headcount has been increasing and stands at close to 10% of our total headcount," she said. "The range of services we offer has expanded to include more in-demand skill sets like digital transformation, cyber, forensics, analytics, cloud and emerging technologies like GenAI."
