Firms lease 53mn sq ft office space since 2022 to set up GCCs in 6 cities

Leading global companies have taken on lease nearly 53 million square feet of office space since 2022 across six major cities to set up Global Capability Centres (GCCs) with maximum demand in Bengaluru, according to CBRE and Zyoin.

In their joint report, property consultant CBRE and hiring solutions firm Zyoin highlighted that GCCs have significantly amplified their Indian operations over recent decades, propelled by a skilled workforce, cost efficiency, and a conducive business climate.

This GCC growth trajectory is anticipated to be concentrated in India's top six metropolitan areas, driven by their exceptional talent pools, enabling expansion and future development.

"Global corporations are affirming their long-term commitment to India by securing larger office spaces for their GCCs," the consultant said.

Nearly 53 million square feet of office space was leased by GCCs between 2022 and the first half of 2024 across Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai, Pune, Delhi-NCR and Mumbai.
