Why country-specific

Every market approaches India differently

A Japanese engineering company, a UAE conglomerate and a UK financial services business do not approach India in the same way.

Sansovi combines country-specific understanding with deep India GCC execution capability — helping you move from exploration to an operational GCC and long-term scale.

More than hiring people and finding an office

International companies often need to navigate government, industry, trade, academia and local business ecosystems. We help you do that with confidence.

A Global Capability Centre is an India-based centre owned or controlled by a global company that delivers technology, engineering, R&D, operations and enterprise functions for the wider business. Many GCCs start with a defined set of functions and grow into hubs for innovation, AI and global mandates.

Indicatively 60–120 days to launch, depending on the operating model, entity approach and hiring scope. An EOR-led or managed launch can typically move faster than a captive model that starts with its own entity.

Not necessarily. An Employer of Record (EOR) lets you hire compliant employees in India while your own entity is being set up, with a phased transition to your entity when you are ready.

It depends on your functions, talent needs, cost targets and scale. Bengaluru, Hyderabad, NCR, Pune and Chennai are established GCC hubs, and selected Tier-2 cities can suit specific functions. Our location assessment compares the options for your case.

Yes. Every corridor template starts with team bands of 20–50, 50–100 or 100+, and is designed to grow into new functions, CoEs and global mandates over time.

Captive: you own the entity and team from day one. BOT (Build-Operate-Transfer): a partner builds and runs the centre, then transfers it to you. Managed GCC: a partner operates a dedicated team or centre on your behalf. EOR-led launch: you hire through an employer of record before your own entity is in place.

Yes. Sansovi covers GCC strategy and advisory, entity/EOR and compliance, talent, workspace, technology and AI, learning, and ongoing HR, payroll, governance and capability expansion — as one partner across the journey.
