India Global Capability Centre ecosystem growth
Overview
India’s Global Capability Centre (GCC) sector is experiencing significant expansion in both scale and functional complexity. Recent data indicates the ecosystem has grown to 2,117 centers, with revenues increasing from $61.4 billion to nearly $100 billion since FY21. The workforce currently exceeds 2.3 million professionals.
The industry is undergoing a strategic shift from focusing on cost savings and headcount toward operational maturity and accountability. Approximately 46% of these centers now serve as transformation hubs, a figure projected to reach 75% by FY30. There is also an increasing emphasis on enterprise AI, supported by over 250,000 AI professionals and 1,200 centers of excellence.
Long-term projections suggest the workforce could reach between 3.3 and 3.7 million employees by 2031, potentially adding up to 1.4 million net new jobs. While automation may reduce demand for routine positions by up to 0.5 million jobs, this is expected to be offset by the creation of approximately 300,000 AI-led roles and expanded functional mandates.
