State GCC Incentive Capture

Several Indian states now run dedicated GCC policies covering capital, payroll, training and operating costs such as lease rental, bandwidth, power and cloud. We quantify what your centre qualifies for, file it, and manage the claim calendar so nothing lapses.

What the GCC actually needs

Incentives are real money, but they are fragmented across states, tied to thresholds and timelines, and easy to forfeit through a missed filing. Most CFOs discover them after the location decision, when it is too late to negotiate.

Where it fits

Pre-launchLaunchScale

Typically t-12 to t-6 months, t-9 to t-3 relative to launch. See the lifecycle.

How it's fulfilled

Scutiger owns the analysis and the claim plan; filings are executed with vetted specialist partners.

What we deliver

1

Eligibility and quantification

We map your seat ramp, capex and operating costs against each relevant state policy and produce a recoverable-amount range with assumptions a CFO can audit.

2

Location-aware negotiation

When the city is still open, incentive value goes into the location decision, and where policies allow it, into discussions with state investment agencies.

3

Filing and claim management

Applications, documentation, milestone evidence and a claim calendar, managed with specialist partners so disbursements are not lost to paperwork.

What this covers

  • Capital-investment subsidies
  • Payroll and recruitment subsidies
  • Training and skilling reimbursements
  • Lease, bandwidth, power and cloud opex support
  • Stamp duty and other concessions

Engagement shape

A modest fixed retainer for quantification and filing, plus a success fee on incentives actually received.

Questions about incentive capture

Which states have GCC-specific incentive policies?

A growing number, including Uttar Pradesh, Karnataka, Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh among others, alongside general IT/ITeS policies elsewhere. Our City Index and incentive estimator track the current set with sources.

Is it too late if our centre is already operating?

Often not. Many incentives are claimed against ongoing payroll, training or operating spend, so an operating centre can still qualify, subject to each policy’s registration windows.

How is the success fee structured?

As a percentage of incentives actually disbursed, agreed upfront. If nothing is received, the success fee is zero.

Can incentives change our choice of city?

Sometimes. When combined with talent depth, connectivity and cost, incentives can tip a decision. That is why we fold them into the GCC City Index rather than treating them separately.
