About 95% of global capability centres ( GCCs) in India are concentrated at six locations and the challenge is to broaden this base for greater inclusiveness, said KK Singh, joint secretary in ministry of electronics and information technology ( MeitY), on Monday.
At the GCC Summit in the national capital, Singh said identifying best practices from existing GCC hubs can provide direction for emerging locations to attract GCCs. The summit was organised by industry body Confederation of Indian Industry (CII).
"We have seen that GCCs are hardly opting for these tier-II cities," he said. "Our approach will be to take the best practices in the six (top) locations, and based on that, create guidelines for the other states to follow."
Speaking at the same event, Ajay Vij, senior country managing director for Accenture India, said the company has expanded to seven or eight emerging cities in the last three years.
"Some of their infrastructure (in the smaller cities is so good that it) puts the infrastructure in the rest of the metros at shame," Vij said.
