Inductus GCC Growth Pack: Exclusive Strategy for UK Firms in 2025

India’s position as a premier global destination for business services and technology development is no longer theoretical but proven. With more than 1.4 billion people, a digitally-savvy middle class, and a government committed to economic liberalization, India offers fertile ground for international firms to establish robust back-end operations, innovation labs, and shared service centers. Key drivers attracting UK firms to India:

• Skilled Talent Pool: India produces over 1.5 million engineers annually, alongside thousands of MBAs and domain specialists across industries.
  
• Cost Arbitrage: Operating costs in India remain 30–50% lower than in the UK thus allowing firms to reinvest savings into R&D and growth.
  
• Time Zone Advantage: With a near 5-hour time difference, India enables seamless 24/7 operations and follow-the-sun delivery models.
  
• Digital Readiness: India is a top-three market globally for digital adoption and fintech innovation making it ideal for tech-enabled services.
  
• Government Incentives: Policies such as “Make in India” and simplified FDI norms have made it easier and faster for foreign companies to set up operations.

The opportunity in the form of GCC solutions for British companies is clear but execution is critical. That’s where the Inductus GCC Growth Pack becomes indispensable. Keep reading.
