This is projected to grow over 1900 by 2025, with a CAGR of 6-7%. 42% of GCCs in India are high on the maturity curve and have emerged as portfolio and transformation hubs in the country. The ecosystem is not only demonstrated high resilience to the pandemic given the high volumes of software projects but has also been able to create significant social impact within the ecosystem. Sustaining the growth will require a collaborative effort from the industry, government, and partner ecosystem.
