Infosys Opens New Development Centre in GIFT City with 1,000-Employee Capacity

In a significant move that underscores its commitment to India's fintech and technology ecosystem,

has inaugurated a state-of-the-art development centre in Gujarat International Finance Tec-City (GIFT City), India’s first operational smart city and international financial services hub. This new facility is designed to accommodate over 1,000 employees and marks another step in Infosys' ongoing strategy to strengthen its presence in strategic locations that align with the country’s digital future. With its attractive regulatory environment, tax benefits, and world-class infrastructure, GIFT City, has been drawing major domestic and international players. Infosys’ new development centre within this ecosystem is expected to focus on delivering cutting-edge digital and IT solutions to global clients, especially in banking, financial services, and insurance (BFSI) sectors. The centre will likely play a pivotal role in supporting innovation in fintech, capital markets, and cross-border financial services. It will also create new employment opportunities and contribute to the local economy, aligning with the Indian government’s broader push to make GIFT City a globally competitive hub. This move reinforces Infosys’ vision of decentralised development, talent access beyond metros, and the leveraging of emerging fintech zones. As GIFT City continues to attract global institutions—including stock exchanges, banks, and fintech firms—Infosys' presence could catalyse more tech-driven investments in the region. The development centre’s launch also comes at a time when Infosys and other IT giants are exploring alternative hubs to decongest existing metro-based operations and expand into newer growth corridors. With the GIFT City initiative gaining global attention, Infosys’ early bet may well position it at the forefront of India’s next big leap in digital finance and global IT services.
