Starbucks to build first India GCC in Chennai with 800 tech jobs
The US-based coffee company has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Tamil Nadu government to establish a technology hub in Chennai. The centre is expected to create around 800 technology roles, with hiring to be phased according to business requirements. For Starbucks, the move is also about bringing more technology work inside the organisation. Anand Varadarajan, Executive Vice President and Chief Technology Officer at Starbucks, said the Chennai hub will work with the company's technology and business teams in the US and other markets. The company has also said that the new centre will allow it to gradually bring work currently handled by third-party service providers in-house. That makes the Chennai centre more than a headcount expansion. It points to a broader change in how large companies are structuring their technology operations. From delivery centres to internal capability India's GCC ecosystem has expanded considerably over the past few years. According to the FY2026 Nasscom-Zinnov GCC Landscape report, the country had 2,117 GCCs operating across 3,728 units, employing about 2.36 million professionals and generating USD 98.4 billion in revenue. The more important change, however, is taking place inside these centres. GCCs are increasingly moving beyond traditional delivery and support functions towards product engineering, artificial intelligence, data, software development, research and development, and other areas with direct business ownership. The Nasscom-Zinnov report describes this shift as a move from a delivery engine towards an enterprise-level role. It also notes that India has seen a growing number of GCCs develop deeper ownership of products, platforms, and intellectual property. Starbucks' Chennai plan fits into that shift, particularly because the company intends to bring some work that is currently outsourced back into its own technology organisation. That does not mean outsourcing disappears. Instead, the boundary between external service providers and internal capability is changing as companies decide which technology functions they want to control directly. Why Chennai The city already has a sizeable GCC base and technology presence across financial services, professional services, and other global industries. The Tamil Nadu government said Chennai accounts for roughly a tenth of India's GCC base. Starbucks' own explanation focuses on the availability of skilled technology professionals, lower attrition, infrastructure, and government support. Chennai has abundant skilled tech talent, employees here tend to stay longer with companies (less attrition), the state has excellent infrastructure, and the incentives offered by the Tamil Nadu government will help in finding new solutions and growing the business, Varadarajan said at the MoU signing. The location decision reflects a consideration that has become increasingly important for GCC expansion: companies are not only looking for the largest possible talent pool. They are also looking at talent retention, engineering depth, infrastructure, and the ability to build a sustainable technology organisation. For Chennai, the Starbucks announcement comes at a time when the city is attracting more global companies to establish or expand their GCC operations. US pharmacy chain Walgreens recently signed an agreement for a Chennai GCC that is expected to create around 250 jobs. A separate technology operation The Starbucks centre will operate independently of the company's retail business in India, which is run through its joint venture with Tata Consumer Products. That distinction matters because the Chennai centre is being positioned as part of Starbucks' global technology organisation rather than as an extension of its Indian retail operations. Starbucks said the hub will support its global business and work closely with technology and business teams in the US and elsewhere across the company. This gives the India operation a different mandate from a conventional country technology team. Its work is expected to support the wider Starbucks organisation, rather than being limited to the requirements of the Indian market. It also places the centre within Starbucks' broader technology footprint. The company has previously identified technology as an important part of how it supports its coffeehouses, customers, and partners across markets. The GCC model is changing The Starbucks announcement comes against a GCC market that is becoming more selective about what expansion means. India added hundreds of GCCs over the past several years, but the next stage is less about simply adding centres and more about increasing the scope of work handled by those centres. The Nasscom-Zinnov FY2026 data shows that India's GCC ecosystem has grown 32% since FY2021. The report also points to increasing artificial intelligence capabilities across products, platforms, and infrastructure, alongside a greater transfer of enterprise ownership to India-based teams. For companies setting up new centres, that changes the starting point. A GCC can now be designed with global responsibilities from the outset, rather than beginning as a support unit and gradually acquiring more complex work. Starbucks' plan to bring third-party technology work in-house is particularly relevant in this context. The company is effectively using the Chennai centre to build an internal capability that can be integrated into its global technology organisation. The next test will be execution. Creating 800 roles is only the first step. The longer-term measure will be the type of work those teams own, how closely they are integrated with global product and business teams, and whether the centre takes responsibility for technology outcomes rather than simply delivering projects. India becomes part of the technology operating model For India, the Starbucks move adds another global brand to a GCC ecosystem that is already moving towards higher-value work. For Starbucks, Chennai provides a way to expand its internal technology organisation while accessing India's engineering talent and building a new global delivery and ownership centre. The trend is clear: the GCC is increasingly becoming part of a company's operating model, not just its cost structure. As more multinational companies make that transition, the distinction between a company's headquarters technology team and its India technology organisation is likely to become less significant. The major duscussion will be, where global technology decisions are made, where products are built, and which teams have ownership of them. India is increasingly becoming part of that conversation.

CPI (M) seeks online donations for Bengal bypolls
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 20 (IANS) CPI(M), the lead party in the West Bengal Left Front, has issued a social media message seeking online donations for the forthcoming bypolls in Nandigram Assembly Constituency in East Midnapore district and Rejinagar Assembly Constituency in Murshidabad district. CPI(M) Politburo member and state secretary Md Salim shared the appeal on social media, attaching a QR code through which people can contribute online to the partys election fund. The bypolls for Nandigram and Rejinagar will be held on October 6, with counting scheduled for October 9. The appeal comes as the Left Front faces internal challenges, particularly in Rejinagar. While CPIs Shanti Gopal Giri is the unanimously accepted Left Front candidate in Nandigram, both CPI(M) and the Revolutionary Socialist Party (RSP) have fielded candidates in Rejinagar. After CPI(M)s Syed Asad Ali was chosen as the Front-nominated candidate in Rejinagar, the RSP revolted and fielded its own candidate, Bikash Chandra Mishra. Salim urged supporters: Help as much as you can by donating to the election fund for campaigning for the upcoming Rejinagar and Nandigram assembly by-elections. During the last West Bengal Assembly elections earlier this year, CPI(M) had also appealed for funds through social media. At that time, Trinamool Congress ridiculed CPI(M) for seeking online donations, arguing it was contradictory given the Left Fronts opposition to computerisation in government offices during its 34-year rule from 1977 to 2011. CPI(M) leaders dismissed the criticism, saying many left-minded voters, though not active party members, wish to support the party financially during elections. This online donation system is aimed at making it easy for such voters to donate. Remember, our party does not have electoral bonds like others. Our leadership believes in the help from common people, a state committee member said.

Asian Games: India begin men's hockey title defence with 13-1 rout of Indonesia
Digital Desk | Nagoya, Sep 20 (IANS) India launched their Asian Games mens hockey title defence in emphatic fashion, decimating Indonesia 13-1 in their opening Pool A encounter on Sunday. Eight different goal-scorers were on target for the Indian team, headlined by Dilpreet Singh's four-goal haul, as India put on a clinical display from the first whistle to the last. With a comprehensive win to start their campaign, India will next take on Sri Lanka in their second Pool A fixture on September 22. India got off to a fast start with Shilanand Lakra converting a rebound off Harmanpreet Singh's saved drag-flick in the 6th minute, before Abhishek doubled the advantage in the 12th minute, turning home a rebound after the initial effort was parried by Indonesia custodian Alam Fajar. Despite Fajar producing a couple of early saves to deny Mandeep Singh, India carried the momentum into the break, closing the first quarter with a 2-0 lead. The second quarter saw the Men in Blue run riot. Dilpreet Singh struck twice inside two minutes (18th, 19th) to open his account for the tournament, followed by a well-worked finish from Rajinder Singh in the 19th minute and a first goal of the campaign for Mandeep Singh (21st). Harmanpreet Singh added a penalty corner strike in the 28th minute, though he had earlier seen a penalty stroke saved by Fajar diving to his right. India went into the half-time break with a commanding 7-0 lead, having found the target from open play, penalty corners, and a variety of combinations across the pitch. Indonesia found their first goal of the match early in the third quarter when captain Aulia Al Ardh converted a penalty corner in the 33rd minute, reducing the deficit to 7-1 after a video referral confirmed the decision in Indonesia's favour. India responded swiftly to the setback, with Shilanand Lakra netting his second of the match (35th) and Dilpreet Singh completing his hat-trick (37th), before Sukhjeet Singh joined the scoring column in the 38th minute to push the lead out to 10-1 by the end of the third quarter. India continued their relentless attacking play in the final quarter. Jugraj Singh converted from India's second penalty corner attempt in the 47th minute after his first effort was blocked by the first rusher, before Sukhjeet Singh added his second of the match (48th) from a well-worked move, finishing off a driving run down the right flank. Dilpreet Singh rounded off a personal tally of four goals in the 49th minute, deflecting home after an initial touch from Abhishek, to take the score to a commanding 13-1 as the remaining minutes wound down with Indonesia retaining possession in the circle.
