Global Capability Centres

Global capability centre setup in GIFT City IFSC.

Legal support for financial institutions and global businesses setting up capability, processing, technology or support centres in GIFT City.

Why This Matters

The setup decision is commercial, but the execution is regulatory.

01

GCCs in GIFT City can support financial services operations, technology, analytics and processing functions.

02

The legal model should define who receives services, who contracts, how costs are charged and where responsibility sits.

03

Good documentation reduces ambiguity between group support, regulated activity and outsourced services.

GCC setup path

A structured path from activity mapping to commencement.

01

Define the proposed service lines, recipient entities and staffing model.

02

Map the activity to GIC/GCC, TechFin or ancillary-service frameworks as applicable.

03

Prepare setup documentation, group service agreements and governance policies.

04

Support commencement, hiring, vendor onboarding and recurring compliance.

Common Mistakes

Issues that usually create avoidable delay or rework.

Describing the GCC too broadly without clarifying regulated versus support functions.

Leaving IP, confidentiality, employment and service-fee terms undocumented.

Ignoring whether TechFin or ancillary-service registration is triggered by the operating model.
