Race
for GCCs Now in Heightened States
Extract from the article:
The article discusses the intense competition
among Indian states, particularly Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Telangana, and
Andhra Pradesh, to attract global capability centers (GCCs) by providing
various incentives and focusing on infrastructure development. These states are
strategically drafting policies to rival established hubs like Bengaluru and
the National Capital Region (NCR) in India.
The goal is to draw foreign investments and
enhance economic growth by creating an environment conducive to setting up
GCCs. This dynamic competition signals a shift towards decentralization and a
more balanced distribution of economic activities across various regions of
India.
My Take:

Reflecting on my blog from years ago, the
concept of motivating states to compete for foreign investments to foster
collaboration with the Central Government is precisely what we see unfolding in
the current scenario of GCC competition.
The emphasis on inducing healthy competition
through platforms like B2B pages aligns with the idea of states vying for GCCs
by offering incentives and developing infrastructure. This foresight
underscores the importance of leveraging competitive dynamics to drive overall
economic growth and development.

In a similar vein, the lack of a centralized
index capturing state competitiveness for attracting investments, as mentioned
in a past blog, resonates with the current situation where Indian states are
striving to enhance their appeal to GCCs.
The need for a transparent and easily
accessible mechanism to evaluate states' attractiveness mirrors the states'
efforts to draft policies and offer incentives to position themselves as viable
destinations for global capability centers.
Call to Action:
To the policymakers and authorities mentioned
in the article, I urge you to continue fostering this competitive environment
among states by ensuring transparency, accountability, and innovation in the
policies designed to attract global capability centers. Embracing this rivalry
positively and constructively can lead to overall economic upliftment and
regional development, ultimately benefiting the nation as a whole.
