Empower your mind, elevate your skills
Global capability centres (GCCs) are set to contribute 2% of India's GDP and generate 2.8 million jobs by 2030, and are emerging as a key growth and employment generator, according to a report by ACCA (the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants ).GCCs, also known as Global In-house Centres (GICs) or Captive Centres, are fully owned and integrated hubs established by multinational corporations in talent-rich locations to build value and intellectual property.They leverage global talent pools and technological advancements to enhance organisational capabilities and drive business transformation.With over 1700 GCCs in 2023-24, which is expected to rise to over 2200 by 2030, India has become the prominent destination for the MNCs to set up their centres.Highlighting the favourable factors, the report said that a skilled workforce, favourable government policies, and improving infrastructure fuel the growth of GCCs in India.In Financial Year 2024, GCCs generated approximately USD 64.6 billion in export revenue: a 40% increase from USD 46 billion in FY23.The report added that about 20,000 global leadership roles are projected to be based in India by 2030.The growth of GCCs in India is most prominent in Tier-1 cities, with Bengaluru leading the pack with 487 centres (29% of India's total). Hyderabad follows closely with 273 GCCs (16%), while the NCR region hosts 272 centres. Mumbai, Pune, and Chennai also contribute significantly, accounting for 12%, 11%, and 10% of the national total, respectively.This is a reflection of India's effort to establish itself as the world leader in housing Global Capability centres (GCCs), with currently nearly 1,700 centres, over 53% of the total 3,200 globally.GCCs have evolved from cost-saving units to strategic hubs driving innovation, operational efficiency, and business growth. GCCs are strategically located in countries like India, offering access to diverse talent pools, robust ecosystems, and favourable business environments.The report highlights that the finance roles in GCCs have shifted from doing basic transaction-focused accounting to creating value for the organisation through process improvement and cost transformation initiatives. Opportunities abound in business partnering, procurement, reporting, planning, and analysis.While entry-level roles focus on data analytics, financial planning and analysis (FP&A), and compliance management, mid-level roles are shifting to process improvements and driving transformation, the report added.

State's GDP more than doubled since 2017: UP finance minister
1 2 3 4 Lucknow: Scaling a growth of 141%, the gross domestic product of Uttar Pradesh has gone up from Rs 12.71 lakh crore to Rs 30.77 lakh crore over the past eight years. Having scaled more than two-fold economic growth, UP is among the fastest growing states in the country, said finance minister Suresh Khanna. The nine-term MLA from Shahjahanpur and chief guest of the event, Khanna, was addressing the gathering at TOI Dialogues where he shared the growth story of the state with the audience on Thursday. Giving credit to the strong leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and consistent efforts of Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath , Khanna said that UP has been able to create a positive image not only within the country but also internationally over the past eight years. Competing with Tamil Nadu and Maharashtra presently, UP is already among the top three economies in the country, reiterated Khanna while adding that the improved law and order situation helped the state attract investors in such a large number. "According to the national crime record bureau's report, 19 states in the country have a higher rate of crime compared to UP," he said. Revealing the strategy to grow further, Khanna said that the primary sector (agriculture and allied industries) which accounts for 26% of the state's economy is already getting saturated and the focus is now on pushing tertiary and manufacturing sectors to boost the economy further. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Remarkable Pictures from the Moments That Made History Undo While delivering his keynote address, former IAS officer who is serving as an advisor to CM Yogi Adityanath, Awanish Kumar Awasthi, said that the image of UP has changed before the world leaders. "I have been on two international official visits recently and met senior politicians and industry leaders. I assure you that the image of UP has improved drastically under Yogi Adityanath's regime. We are not looked down upon anymore," he said. Awasthi said, "Inspired by Modi, Chief Minister Yogi set a vision for the state to achieve USD 1 trillion economy and continuous efforts are being made to drive the economic growth." Adding that country or its state cannot move forward unless rule of law is established, Awasthi cited the example of organising mass gatherings such as 2019 Kumbh and 2025 Mahakumbh successfully and the strong message that has been sent out to the mafia. Pointing out towards the network of expressways, Awasthi said that the Ganga Expressway, which is nearing completion, also showcases the growth story of UP. "The 594km-long expressway being executed with a budget of close to Rs 45,000 crore would be the largest public-private-partnership project in the country and signifies the trust Yogi government has built within the industry leaders," he said, adding that Jewar airport is going to shape up as another achievement of the state.

Monsoon session: Parliament proceedings washed out again amid opposition stir
NEW DELHI: Rajya Sabha and Lok Sabha proceedings were washed out on Friday, amid opposition's protest to demand a discussion on special intensive revision of Bihar's electoral rolls. In Rajya Sabha, deputy chairman Harivansh rejected 20 notices given by members seeking suspension of listed business to discuss on five issues, including the SIR exercise, saying it "appears that notices under Rule 267 are being used as a tool to create disorder in the House". His observations resulted in a uproar from opposition. He said 56.49 hours of the House's time has so far been lost. Rajya Sabha was adjourned for the day a little after noon amid opposition protest, which highlighted Congress's allegation of "vote chori" by "BJP-EC" in elections. TMC's Derek O'Brien said, "Today, on behalf of all of us, let's make a commitment that on Monday morning, we will submit 40 notices and all will be on SIR." CPM's John Brittas said Rule 267 should be scrapped, while Congress's Pramod Tiwari said discussion on the SIR issue should be taken up. In LS, opposition raised slogans against the SIR exercise. Some were seen banging the Speaker's table, which was strongly objected to by Krishna Prasad Tenneti, who was in the chair. "Yeh dhol nahi hai (this is not a drum). You cannot bang the table like this." the TDP MP said. Despite din, five questions and supplementaries were taken up during 23 minutes of the Question Hour. Finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman withdrew Income Tax Bill, 2025. A new version of the bill will be introduced in the Lok Sabha on Aug 11.

Legal Clouds Over DMI Finance: MUFG's $334 Million Big Bet Sparks Transparency Debate
In March 2025, DMI Finance Private Limited, a Delhi-based non-banking financial company (NBFC) secured a $334 million equity investment from Japan's MUFG Bank (Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group). This latest development raises questions about transparency and investor due diligence in India. Industry insiders point out that none of the ongoing legal cases against DMI Finance Private Limited were publicly disclosed during the funding process, raising critical concerns about non-disclosure and investor risk as we race towards becoming a USD 5 Trillion Economy by 2027-2028. DMI Finance Private Limited has been under mounting legal and regulatory scrutiny. There is a currently a registered ECIR by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) and multiple FIRs filed against it. Despite official summons, key individuals associated with DMI have reportedly failed to appear before investigators, citing their absence from the country. This has further fuelled suspicions of intentional evasion. Multiple sources have claimed that financial liabilities and complaints against DMI Finance could amount to several hundred crores. In response, there is a growing call to escalate the matter to the Serious Fraud Investigation Office (SFIO) to ensure a centralized and transparent investigation. The case is now being compared to past financial debacles such as the ₹429 crore Seva Vikas Cooperative Bank scam and the ₹8,000 crore Adarsh Credit Cooperative Society collapse, both of which began with ignored early warnings. The Reserve Bank of India had earlier flagged serious irregularities in DMI Finance's operations. Although the temporary lending ban was later lifted, the action highlighted discrepancies in pricing policies, interest spreads, and adherence to fair lending norms. The RBI's intervention marked the first regulatory red flag, but subsequent developments reveal a much deeper problem. DMI Finance had been named in multiple First Information Reports (FIRs) across Gurugram, Noida, and Agra. Even though some remain challenged, FIR No. 76/2025, came to be registered in Gurugram, accuses the company of using a falsified legal document bearing a forged law firm seal to extract funds from a businessman. FIR No. 0486/2022, filed in Noida Sector 113, alleging a ₹67 crore fraud involving forged board resolutions and diverted loan funds under the guise of a joint real estate project. FIR No. 1653/2019, from Noida Sector 24, linked DMI to a cyber fraud involving the misuse of identity proofs for unauthorized loans. The fourth, an FIR registered in Agra under ID 31621046220025, implicated DMI in another case of big financial fraud and criminal breach of trust, reinforcing the company's questionable practices and conduct resulted in widening legal challenges. Even if some of the complaints against DMI Finance are yet to be proven or fully verified, it is imperative that the Reserve Bank of India and the Ministry of Finance treat the matter with utmost seriousness. The financial system cannot afford another large-scale failure, especially at a time when global instability and regional wars have left many common people financially vulnerable. Protecting small investors and public confidence must remain a top priority delays or oversight could lead to irreversible losses in already fragile times.
