We help global enterprises launch and scale captive engineering centers in India — from legal entity and real estate to a 50-engineer org chart that ships in week one.
Who this is for
A step-by-step guide to standing up your captive center — from strategy through first engineers on the floor.
Location analysis and business case finalization.
Entity setup and workspace procurement.
Leadership hiring and skill mapping.
IT infrastructure ready and first team onboarded.
Choosing the right operational framework for your maturity level.
Every engagement is led by senior practitioners. You meet them in the pitch; they ship the work.
Private limited incorporation, GST, STPI, SEZ, ESI/PF, and payroll wired up in under 8 weeks.
Grade-A real estate, network, security zones, and badge access — turnkey from day one.
Top-of-funnel recruiting through senior-level execs, all on our 4-stage technical bar.
Squad structures, ceremonies, RACI, and global handoff playbooks tuned to your HQ.
SOC 2, ISO 27001, DPDP, and HIPAA-aligned controls embedded from the first commit.
We run it for 24 months, then transfer the entity, leases, and team — fully owned by you.
Fortune 500 retailer replaced 3 outsourcing vendors with a 90-person GCC in Hyderabad.

Across 4 active GCCs we operate, attrition stays well below India industry average.
Numbers are real, names are sometimes changed at the client's request.
Challenge — Three outsourcing vendors, rising run-cost, and no captive engineering muscle in India — leadership wanted a GCC without a two-year setup programme.
What we did — 90-person GCC in Hyderabad live in 12 weeks. Replaced vendor spend with a captive org that shipped their first production feature in week 11.

Challenge — US engineering costs were blocking roadmap velocity. They needed a GCC with the same ceremonies and quality bar as HQ — not a low-cost body shop.
What we did — Micro-GCC ramped from 12 to 45 engineers in 9 months. First feature from India shipped in under 3 months with shared SLOs and audit-ready controls.
Yes — we have a 'micro-GCC' model that starts at 10 and scales without re-architecting the entity.
Always. Every contract, codebase, and contributor agreement assigns IP directly to your parent entity.
Build-Operate-Transfer typically completes in 18–24 months; we've done it in 12 when needed.
A 30-minute call with a senior engineer. No sales theatre — just a real assessment of fit, scope, and timeline.
