Why Global Capability Centers are the enterprise backbone of 2030

As digital transformation accelerates and enterprises rethink resilience, one strategic trend is rapidly redefining the global operations landscape: Global Capability Centers (GCCs). Originally conceived as offshore cost-saving hubs, GCCs have transformed into centers of innovation, analytics, and enterprise-wide capability building. Today, over 1,750 GCCs operate in India, employing 1.9 million professionals and generating more than $64.6 billion in annual revenue. By 2030, these numbers are projected to surge to 2,100–2,200 centers, 2.5–2.8 million employees, and $99-105 billion in revenue. India's technology-rich ecosystem and skilled STEM workforce continue to make it a magnet for GCCs worldwide. 'GCCs are uniquely positioned at the intersection of capability, cost, and control, making them critical assets for companies navigating digital disruption and global volatility,' Sudeep Krishna Co-Founder & President, Healthark Insights, told The Hans India. Sudeep has over 20 years of experience in strategy consulting, most recently serving as Managing Director and Strategy Practice Leader at Monitor Deloitte. He has led numerous global engagements across the bio-pharma and medtech sectors, including work with both J&J Medical and J&J Pharma in SEA, India, and the US. Why the Urgency Now? The need for GCCs has become more urgent than ever. The combination of supply chain disruptions, AI-enabled transformation, and the imperative to optimize cost with control is prompting global firms to look beyond traditional outsourcing. India's advantage lies not just in cost - it's in capability. With over 1.5 million engineering graduates annually, the country is fast becoming the world's preferred destination for digital, data, and deep-tech operations. A case in point: an Ohio-based rubber and tire company is setting up its GCC in Hyderabad, with plans to recruit 300 professionals for IT and R&D in 2025. Meanwhile, companies like Best Buy have achieved a 15 per cent reduction in stock holding costs through analytics-driven optimization executed from their Indian GCC. Walmart Global Tech India, which started as a support center, is now a driver of AI, cloud, and data innovation- underscoring the shift from cost centers to strategic assets. From support hubs to innovation engines A modern GCC does far more than transactional work. Enterprises are turning to GCCs for AI/ML, R&D, cloud engineering, product development, risk analytics, and even global employer branding. Lowe's India GCC, for example, has evolved into a core digital hub, leading global work streams in omnichannel retail tech, product engineering, and machine learning. Similarly, Goldman Sachs Services India supports end-to-end enterprise functions from cloud engineering and internal audit to AI-driven investment platforms. Core Functions of a modern GCC: •Technology & Engineering: DevOps, cybersecurity, cloud infrastructure •Finance & Risk: FP&A, compliance, real-time treasury integration •R&D: Product prototyping, quantum computing, 5G •HR: L&D, talent analytics, onboarding systems •Data & Analytics: Predictive modeling, AI dashboards, decision intelligence This value chain integration is making GCCs central to global enterprises' long-term strategy—not just as delivery arms, but as strategic innovation nodes. COCO vs. COPO: The Operating Model Debate GCCs primarily operate under two models: •Company Owned, Company Operated (COCO): Offers full ownership and strategic alignment. Microsoft IDC, established in 1998, is a COCO model that directly drives core development for Windows, Office, and Cloud under Microsoft's global leadership. •Company Owned, Partner Operated (COPO): Allows companies to retain control while outsourcing operations to local experts. Reveleer, a U.S.-based health tech firm, recently launched its Chennai GCC under this hybrid model—balancing IP security with operational agility. 'These operating models aren't just structural choices,' said Sudeep Krishna. 'They reflect how committed an enterprise is to embedding long-term capability, governance, and strategic alignment within its global footprint,' he added. Looking Ahead Global Capability Centers are no longer a tactical decision—they are a strategic imperative. As businesses grapple with talent gaps, AI integration, cost pressures, and geopolitical uncertainty, GCCs offer a future-proof model. Whether it's to build resilience, scale innovation, or enable data-driven decision-making, GCCs offer a rare trifecta: cost efficiency, capability enhancement, and enterprise control. And as India anchors its position as a global innovation partner, GCCs will only become more central to how the world's leading companies operate.

US-India trade talks, TCS earnings likely to drive markets this week

Equity investors are up for an eventful trading week ahead as the 90-day suspension period of the reciprocal tariffs announced by US President Donald Trump ends on July 9, analysts said, adding that a positive outcome from the trade negotiations could further lift market sentiment, particularly benefiting trade-sensitive sectors. Besides, Q1 earnings from IT major TCS and foreign fund movement would also dictate sentiment at the Dalal Street, experts said. July 9 marks the end of the 90-day suspension period of the Trump tariffs imposed on dozens of countries, including India. An additional import duty of 26 per cent was announced on Indian goods entering the US. "This week holds significant importance not only for Indian markets but for global equities as well. The most anticipated event is the outcome of the US trade (tariff) deadline on July 9, which could shape global trade dynamics. Investors will also closely monitor the release of the US FOMC (Federal Open Market Committee) minutes on the same day," Ajit Mishra SVP, Research, Religare Broking Ltd, said. Domestically, the spotlight will shift to corporate earnings, with IT major TCS and retail giant Avenue Supermarts among the prominent companies scheduled to report their quarterly results, setting the tone for the Q1 earnings season, he added. Movement in global oil benchmark Brent crude and the rupee-dollar trend would also be monitored by investors this week. "A positive outcome from the US-India trade negotiations could further lift market sentiment, particularly benefiting trade-sensitive sectors like IT, pharma, and auto. Considering the broader indices currently trading at elevated levels, the market participants will closely watch for signs of earnings catch-up from upcoming Q1starting this week," Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Investments Limited, said. Last week, the BSE benchmark Sensex dropped 626.01 points or 0.74 per cent, and the NSE Nifty declined 176.8 points or 0.68 per cent. "Overall, we expect the market to remain in consolidation mode, awaiting clarity on the India-US trade deal; while stock specific action would continue on the back of Q1 FY26 business updates ahead of the earnings season starting this week," Siddhartha Khemka, Head - Research, Wealth Management, Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd, said. On foreign fund flows, V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Investments Limited, said, "Resumption of FII (Foreign Institutional Investors) buying will hinge on two things: One, if a trade deal happens between India and US that will be positive for markets and FII flows; two, Q1 FY26 result indications. If the results indicate earnings recovery, that will be positive. Disappointment on these factors can impact the market and, thereby, FII flows.
