July 3: Japan has emerged as the largest contributor to India’s Global Capability Centre (GCC) ecosystem in the Asia Pacific region, according to a new industry report highlighting the country’s expanding role in offshore business operations.
The report states that Japanese companies are increasing their presence in India’s GCC landscape, driven by the need for greater operational efficiency, access to skilled technology talent, and growing demand for digital transformation capabilities. Key sectors seeing rising participation include automotive engineering, manufacturing support services, financial services, and IT-enabled operations.
India continues to strengthen its position as a preferred global GCC hub, supported by cost advantages, a strong talent base, and rapid improvements in digital infrastructure. The growing involvement of Japanese firms also reflects deeper economic and technology collaboration between the two countries.
The report further notes that this trend is part of a broader shift among Asia Pacific enterprises, which are increasingly diversifying their global delivery networks and expanding capability centres across new geographies.
Overall, India’s GCC ecosystem is expected to see continued expansion, with rising participation from developed Asian economies reinforcing its role as a key hub for global business operations and innovation.
