    BENGALURU COMMANDS 54% OF RETAIL GCC TALENT

    Bengaluru now anchors 54% of India's retail GCC talent pool—a structural shift reshaping where global capability centres compete for AI and tech roles.

    The concentration isn't accidental. Talent density, cost arbitrage, and proximity to tech clusters create a gravity well. But it also signals risk: over-reliance on 1 city for mission-critical functions.

    📍 GCC ERA tracks 1,800+ centres across India. What we're seeing: tier-2 cities (#Hyderabad, #Pune) are building specialist pockets, but #Bengaluru's dominance in retail GCC hiring means career velocity and role variety cluster there—for now.

    If you're in retail GCC ops, does your next move depend on being in Bengaluru, or are you seeing real opportunities elsewhere?
