ANSR Signs MoU with Maha Govt to Build India’s First GCC City

ANSR, a global leader in establishing and running global capability centres (GCCs), has signed a landmark Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on July 3 with the Government of Maharashtra to develop India’s first dedicated GCC City in Navi Mumbai.

The MoU was signed in the presence of CM Devendra Fadnavis and Lalit Ahuja, CEO and Founder of ANSR. Maharashtra’s new GCC Policy, approved by the State Cabinet on September 30, 2025, provides the foundation for this ambitious project.

The GCC City is planned to become a premier destination for global companies to set up, grow, and innovate through their GCCs. It aims to offer world-class infrastructure, foster innovation, and attract global investments to Maharashtra.

Speaking on the occasion, Ahuja said, “This MoU marks a huge leap forward in shaping the future of GCCs in India. Maharashtra’s AI-ready talent will be pivotal in powering the next wave of GCC growth.”

Maharashtra has long established itself as a GCC powerhouse, with Mumbai and Pune already serving as mature hubs for global enterprises. 

Under the agreement, ANSR will design, develop, and invest in the GCC City, aiming to attract large-scale investments across sectors. It will also generate significant employment opportunities for Maharashtra’s skilled workforce, foster innovation through advanced infrastructure and ecosystem collaboration, and create a thriving business environment supported by the state’s policies.

The Government of Maharashtra will support the project through land allocation, coordination with relevant departments, and measures to ease doing business under the new GCC Policy.
