Similar to platforms like G-P (Globalization Partners), Deel, and Oyster, our EOR offering goes further by providing direct access to the Chandigarh IT talent pool — pre-vetted professionals who can be onboarded in days, not weeks.

Global Capability Centers (GCC)
Offshore Dev Centers · Build-Operate-Transfer
Global Capability Centers (GCCs) have become the strategic backbone of multinational enterprises looking to tap into India's engineering talent at scale. India's GCC revenue reached $64.6 billion in FY2024 and is projected to cross $100 billion by 2030, underscoring the massive shift toward India-based delivery centres.
Our EOR-first approach lets you go operational in 12 to 24 weeks instead of the typical 6 to 12 months. Start with a small team under our EOR model, validate the operating model, and seamlessly transition to a fully owned captive centre when the time is right.

- • Talent acquisition & team ramp-up
- • Office infrastructure & IT setup

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Employer of Record and how does it work?
An Employer of Record (EOR) is a third-party organisation that serves as the legal employer for your workers in a foreign country. We handle all employment-related responsibilities — contracts, payroll, taxes, benefits, and compliance with Indian labour law — while you retain full control over the employee's day-to-day work, tasks, and management. This lets you hire talent in India in days without setting up a local company, saving months of legal and administrative effort.
How quickly can you set up a dedicated team?
For staff augmentation, we can provide individual resources within 1 to 2 weeks from your initial request. For dedicated teams of 3 to 10 members, the typical ramp-up is 2 to 4 weeks. Larger teams or niche skill requirements may take 4 to 6 weeks. We source from our consortium of 1,500+ pre-vetted professionals, which significantly accelerates the hiring timeline compared to starting from scratch.
What is a Fractional CTO and who needs one?
A Fractional CTO is a senior technology executive who works with your company on a part-time basis, typically 10 to 20 hours per week. They provide strategic technology leadership including roadmap planning, architecture decisions, team building, and tech due diligence — at a fraction of the cost of a full-time CTO. This model is ideal for seed-stage to Series B startups, non-technical founders building their first product, companies between CTO hires, and organisations preparing for fundraising or due diligence. Engagements typically range from $5,000 to $20,000 per month.
How does your GCC model work?
Our GCC model follows an EOR-first approach that minimises risk and accelerates time to value. In the first phase (weeks 1 to 8), we hire your initial team under our EOR, set up infrastructure, and integrate them with your processes. In the second phase (weeks 9 to 16), we validate the operating model, scale the team, and establish operational metrics. In the final phase (weeks 17 to 24), we assist with entity formation and execute a Build-Operate-Transfer to hand over full ownership of the centre. This approach lets you go operational in 12 to 24 weeks instead of the 6 to 12 months typically required for traditional GCC setups.
