Global information technology services and Knowledge Process Outsourcing (KPO) firm, Syntel, Inc, is setting up a new Global Development Campus (GDC) in Tirunelveli, in Tamil Nadu.
The campus represents a significant expansion of the company’s facilities in India, and reinforces Syntel’s commitment to expanding its infrastructure through a campus-based strategy, said a press release issued by the company.
The first phase of the Tirunelveli campus will create 250,000 square feet of work space with capacity for more than 2,500 employees. It will include a software development block with a dedicated security block, dining facilities and a welcome centre.
The new facility is being constructed in multiple phases on a 100-acre plot of land in a tax-free Special Economic Zone (SEZ) and is scheduled to be completed within two years.
Prashant Ranade, Syntel CEO and President says, “The campus is highly scalable and will give us additional flexibility to meet the growing demand for globally delivered IT services.”
In addition to the new development in Tirunelveli, Syntel has also expanded its campuses in Pune and Chennai, the release said.
