IT and Industries Minister D Sridhar Babu on Monday inaugurated the company’s 20,000-sqft Global Capability Centre (GCC) in the city.
Speaking on the occasion, he said Hyderabad was home to more than 515 GCCs employing over three lakh professionals. More than 70 GCCs began operations in the city last year, the highest number recorded by any Indian city, he said.

He added that the government was encouraging GCCs to expand into emerging sectors such as artificial intelligence, data analytics, cybersecurity and product engineering.
