ANSR Report Highlights 126,000 Professionals Driving Enterprise AI Transformation Across India’s GCCs

India,  Dec 15: ANSR, the global leader in establishing and operating Global Capability Centers today announced the release of its latest industry study, AI Talent Trends in India’s GCCs  Report 2025, developed in partnership with Wizmatic. The report presents one of the most comprehensive analyses to date on how India’s GCC ecosystem is driving global enterprise adoption of AI, Generative AI, and Agentic AI at unprecedented scale.

According to the study, Fortune 500 GCCs in India now employ over 126,600 professionals in AI-aligned roles, making India the world’s largest, most dynamic, and fastest-growing enterprise AI talent hub. Of these, 18,300 constitute core AI experts working in machine learning, deep learning, LLM engineering, MLOps, and GenAI platform development marking a major shift in GCCs from execution centers to AI innovation command hubs.

Key Highlights from the Report:

AI-Aligned Talent in GCCs Crosses 126,600;

GCCs now account for 22.5% of India’s total AI talent demand, with AI-aligned talent making up 13% of the entire Fortune 500 GCC workforce. For every core AI role, GCCs deploy an additional 5–6 adjacently-skilled professionals in software engineering, data pipelines, and platform engineering to support AI deployment and scaling.

India’s AI Talent Strength Surges 252% in Eight Years;

India’s AI talent concentration has grown 252% between 2016–2024, now standing 2.51X higher than the global average. India has also reversed the decade-long brain drain trend, retaining more senior AI talent domestically due to high-impact GCC roles, competitive compensation, and access to global-scale AI problem statements.

GCCs Are Evolving Into AI Centers of Excellence;

The report outlines a five-stage maturity curve, showing GCCs progressing from digitization to full-scale AI orchestration. By 2028, many GCCs will be deploying enterprise-grade, autonomous AI systems, with the most mature centers transforming into Cognitive Intelligence Hubs aligned directly with global boardroom decision-making.

Hyderabad Emerges as India’s Fastest-Growing AI GCC Hub;

While Bengaluru leads with 30% of India’s total AI workforce, Hyderabad has seen a sharp rise in AI CoEs anchored by cloud majors (AWS, Microsoft, Google) and deep-tech GCCs. Chennai and Pune continue to strengthen domain-led AI capabilities across BFSI, industrial, and healthcare.

AI Hiring Led by Technology, BFSI and Retail;

• Technology & SaaS (24%): LLMOps, model fine-tuning, and AI platform ownership
• BFSI (22%): Fraud analytics, credit risk modelling, explainable AI
• Retail & e-commerce (11%): Search, recommendations, personalization engines
• Manufacturing & Auto (10%): Predictive maintenance, industrial IoT, computer vision

AI Talent Gap Shrinking Faster in India Than Any Other Market;

Despite a projected global AI talent deficit, India’s workforce is expanding at 16.4% CAGR, driven by aggressive reskilling, government-led AI skilling missions, and strong academia-industry collaboration. India is the only major market on track to close its high-skill AI talent gap within the decade.

Announcing the report, Vikram Ahuja , Co-Founder ANSR said;

“The world’s next great competitive advantage won’t come from who builds the most powerful AI models, but from who can mobilize talent to make AI real inside the enterprise. And on that front, India and its GCCs are stepping into a historic leadership role. GCCs are no longer satellite extensions,  they are becoming the epicenters of AI-powered enterprise transformation. What makes this moment remarkable is the convergence of three forces: India’s unmatched depth of AI talent, the enterprise-scale ambition of GCCs, and the urgency with which global companies are reimagining how they operate.

The next decade will belong to organizations that invest in people, cultivate new AI-native capabilities, and steer this transformation responsibly. The GCCs that keep business impact at the core, while using AI as the force multiplier for innovation and value creation, will define the future of global enterprise.”

The report predicts that GCCs will accelerate India’s transition from a global talent supplier to a strategic AI innovation hub, with nearly all mature GCCs expected to operate specialized teams in areas like agentic AI, multi-modal model development, LLM governance, and AI-first product platforms by 2030.
