From regime selection (SEZ vs STPI vs DTA) to a running, compliant Global Capability Center - entity setup, transfer pricing and the full compliance stack.
Hyderabad is among the world’s fastest-growing GCC destinations. Setting one up correctly means getting four things right at the start: the operating regime, the entity and FEMA structure, the transfer pricing model, and the compliance calendar. We advise on all four and then run the stack - one advisor from ideation to steady state.
A GCC is an offshore unit of a global company delivering technology, finance, analytics or operations work to the parent. India hosts 1,700+ GCCs, and Hyderabad is one of the top two destinations.
SEZ suits large, stable headcount with procurement benefits; STPI suits flexible, fast-scaling units that want any-premises freedom; DTA is simplest where export incentives matter less. We give a written comparison memo covering tax, GST, customs and exit before you commit to space.
Most GCCs operate on a benchmarked cost-plus markup. We prepare the benchmarking study, evaluate Safe Harbour (which offers certainty for eligible IT/ITES services), and maintain Form 3CEB and TP documentation annually.
Typically 4 to 8 weeks from decision to an operational entity - incorporation, FEMA capital reporting, tax registrations and SEZ/STPI approvals run in parallel under one coordinated plan.
