GCC advisory

Real estate advisory for global capability centres in Mumbai.

Global capability centres typically enter on a test-fit footprint and scale hard once the hiring plan lands. The lease signed in year one decides whether year three is an expansion or a relocation.

What a GCC needs

Six things to settle before the first floor plate.

Test-fit space is easy to find. These are the parts that decide whether the footprint can scale.

01

Headcount-led sizing

Size the first lease on the parent's ramp plan, with a defined path to the later phases.

02

Expansion rights

First-offer or first-refusal rights on adjacent space, so year three is an expansion and not a relocation.

03

Talent-led location

Micro-market choice driven by where your hires live and commute from, not rent alone.

04

Building specification

Power, connectivity, security and floor-plate checks against the parent's technical standard.

05

Phased handover

Rent commencement and handover that follow the hiring plan.

06

Exit flexibility

Lock-in, notice and partial surrender terms that match an uncertain ramp.
