Where To Set Up

Choosing a City, and What to Expect

Where you set up affects your talent pool, costs and infrastructure. Here's a general guide — and a realistic sense of how long each stage takes.

●Bengaluru

India's leading technology hub, with deep access to engineering and product talent.

●Hyderabad

Lower operating costs with strong infrastructure — a popular base for GCCs.

●Pune

Strong engineering talent pool, well suited to mid-sized technology teams.

●Gurgaon / Noida

Close to New Delhi — a common choice for headquarters and shared-services setups.

Typical Setup Timeline

Company Incorporation~10–20 working days
Bank Account Opening~1–2 weeks post-registration
Tax & Payroll Setup~2–3 weeks, in parallel
Fully Operational~30–45 days overall

Indicative ranges based on typical cases. Actual timelines depend on document readiness, entity type and regulatory approvals — we'll confirm a specific timeline for your setup.
