Guidance—Tamil Nadu’s nodal agency for investment promotion and business development—has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with ANSR, a global leader in establishing and scaling Global Capability Centres (GCCs) for Fortune 500 companies and high-growth enterprises.
This partnership marks a significant milestone in strengthening Tamil Nadu’s position as one of the world’s most attractive destinations for technology, innovation, and high-value global services.
With over 200 GCCs established, more than 200,000 global professionals hired, 21 years of operational expertise, and 12 million sq. ft. of real estate infrastructure enabled, ANSR is a leader in building and scaling enterprise capability centres for Fortune 500 companies and high-growth global enterprises.

T.R.B. Rajaa, Hon’ble Minister for Industries, Investment Promotion & Commerce, said: “We want Tamil Nadu to be the world’s most competitive GCC destination. You see the momentum already. Technology, automotive, BFSI, engineering, aerospace, and retail companies have all chosen our State. They come because of our talent, our infrastructure, and the stability of this government.”
Lalit Ahuja, Founder & CEO of ANSR, said: “Tamil Nadu has all the ingredients to become the world’s most competitive GCC destination with strong talent, world-class infrastructure, progressive governance, and a thriving innovation ecosystem. We are excited to partner with the Government to bring the next generation of global enterprises to the State”.
Tamil Nadu is already home to GCCs of leading global companies across technology, automotive, BFSI, engineering, aerospace, and retail sectors. With the State’s dedicated GCC policy, unparalleled employability, and fastest-growing tech workforce, the collaboration with ANSR is expected to generate significant investments, high-value employment opportunities, and advanced innovation capabilities for the State.
This MoU represents a major step in Tamil Nadu’s ongoing journey to become the premier global destination for GCCs, reinforcing its commitment to building a future-ready digital economy that supports innovation, competitiveness, and inclusive growth.
