India's leading position as a global hub for Global Capability Centres (GCCs) comes with a complex regulatory landscape. TeamLease RegTech reports that these centres, generating over USD 64.6 billion in export revenue, must navigate over 500 distinct legal obligations and 2,000 annual filings.
GCCs, originating as cost-saving facilities, have evolved into strategic global hubs, focusing on high-value functions like artificial intelligence and compliance management. They face 151 labour-related compliance obligations, with potential penalties impacting operations.
Geographical policies influence compliance. Karnataka's Employer Compliance Decriminalisation Bill aims to replace criminal penalties with fines, reducing business burdens. Rishi Agrawal of TeamLease RegTech stresses that achieving compliance maturity is crucial for innovation and scaling.
