Overview
- The Deloitte India report published Friday, July 3, 2026, found that more than 100 Japanese companies now operate Global Capability Centres in India, making Japan the largest Asia‑Pacific contributor to the country’s GCC ecosystem.
- Deloitte says those centres have moved beyond back‑office work to high‑value mandates such as engineering, AI, embedded systems, cloud services, advanced analytics and digital manufacturing.
- The report projects the GCC sector could add USD 470–600 billion in net economic impact by fiscal 2030, lift 2.2–2.8 percent of India’s GDP and support 20–25 million jobs including 4–5 million direct roles.
- Expansion is spreading to non‑metro cities such as Ahmedabad, Jaipur, Coimbatore, Kochi and Indore because of lower costs, specialised talent pools and state policy incentives.
- Deloitte links the surge to stronger India–Japan ties, noting a JPY10 trillion investment commitment plus digital and industrial partnerships that are expected to speed further GCC growth.
