The centre is expected to employ over 1,000 people in a hybrid working model and will focus on delivering advanced digital solutions for the global Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance (BFSI) sector.
Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendrabhai Patel inaugurated the centre on June 7, highlighting its significance for Gujarat's financial and technological ecosystem.
