What is a Global Capability Centre (GCC)?

A Global Capability Centre (GCC) is a fully owned offshore unit established by multinational corporations to deliver strategic business functions, technology services, and innovation capabilities. Unlike traditional outsourcing, GCCs are direct extensions of the parent company, operating under the same brand, culture, and quality standards while leveraging India's talent pool and cost advantages.

A Global Capability Centre is a fully owned offshore unit of a global enterprise that delivers strategic functions — engineering, R&D, finance, analytics, customer operations — for its parent company. India hosts over 1,700 active GCCs, more than any other country, driven by talent depth, cost efficiency, and government support.
Traditional GCC setup can take 6–12 months. Mascon Techlabs delivers an operational GCC in 90 days: legal entity in 30–45 days, office and IT infrastructure in 10 weeks, and founding team placement in 12 weeks. Our structured model eliminates delays caused by fragmented vendors.
Government Collaboration means active engagements with state government bodies across India to facilitate GCC setup — enabling streamlined access to state GCC policies, investment incentives, and single-window clearance mechanisms for eligible organisations.
No. We support GCC setups across India, including Bengaluru, Pune, Hyderabad, Chennai, NCR, and other Tier-1 and Tier-2 cities. Our legal, regulatory, infrastructure, and talent networks span the entire country.
Everything required for an operational GCC: legal entity incorporation (Private Limited Company), regulatory filings (FEMA, RBI, GST, PAN, TAN), office space and IT infrastructure, founding team recruitment (Country Head + 5–8 roles), payroll and HR systems, compliance calendar, and parent company integration. You get a turnkey GCC, not a checklist.
Costs vary based on city, office size, team composition, and regulatory complexity. A typical 10–15 person GCC in Bangalore or Pune requires $150K–$300K in first-year setup and operational costs (excluding salaries). We provide a detailed cost model during the free briefing, tailored to your requirements.
Yes. We offer post-launch support including monthly compliance reporting, quarterly talent pipeline reviews, annual state policy renewals, ongoing HR and finance administration, and strategic advisory. Many clients retain us as their India operations partner for 2–3 years.
We can work with your existing entity. Our services are modular — you can engage us for specific needs like state policy application support, talent acquisition, office setup, or compliance management. We assess your current state and fill the gaps required to reach operational readiness.
We leverage a proprietary network of 12,000+ pre-vetted candidates across engineering, product, data science, finance, and operations. Our talent team conducts initial screening, technical assessments, and cultural fit interviews. You make the final hiring decision; we manage the entire recruitment process.
Three things: (1) Single accountable model across legal, infrastructure, talent, and compliance. (2) Government Collaboration through active engagements with state government bodies across India. (3) Structured execution designed to move from setup planning to operational readiness with clear milestones.
