For foreign companies opening a GCC in Tamil Nadu
We set up the Indian company behind your global capability centre (GCC) in Chennai, check whether it qualifies for Tamil Nadu’s GCC payroll subsidy before the scheme closes on 31 March 2027, and keep the state and company filings on a dated calendar.
Up to 30% of high-paying payroll back in year one, until 31 March 2027.
We reply by email within 12 hours.
