Hyderabad's IT Surge: Global Firms Flock, Outpacing Bengaluru in New GCCs

• Hyderabad is rapidly emerging as a preferred destination for Global Capability Centers (GCCs), challenging Bengaluru's long-held dominance.
• A new report reveals Hyderabad launched 35 (41%) of 85 new greenfield GCCs in India in 2025, significantly more than Bengaluru's 21.
• The city now hosts one-fifth of all GCCs in India, attracting major firms like JP Morgan Chase, Oracle Corporation, and Advanced Micro Devices.
• Hyderabad's appeal is driven by rapid infrastructure development, lower cost of living, a language-agnostic environment, and initiatives like T-Hub and Genome Valley.
• Bengaluru faces growing challenges including traffic, infrastructure strain, and rising costs, prompting warnings from industrialists about potential investment shifts.
