New Delhi: Deloitte US has expanded its delivery capabilities in India by establishing new offices in Pune, Chennai, and Kolkata to cater to global companies. With over 10,000 professionals expected to operate from these locations in the coming year, Deloitte aims to meet the rising demand for business services exports.
The expansion was prompted by the increasing need for skilled professionals in Deloitte’s advisory businesses, including artificial intelligence, data analytics, cybersecurity, cloud computing, human capital, assurance, tax, valuations, and mergers and acquisitions.
By leveraging the talent available in India and capitalizing on the growing opportunities in business services exports, Deloitte is tapping into the country’s skilled workforce, which is highly sought after by global organizations for complex tasks. The establishment of these offices will enable the company to access a specialized talent pool and drive the next phase of growth.
In addition to expanding its presence, Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India LLP (Deloitte India) recently announced an acquisition in India’s IoT, automation, and digital transformation space. Deloitte India acquired the assets of Tezeva and FaktoryWize from Websym Solutions, a Pune-based tech startup. The co-founders of Websym, Ashish Nene, Subramhanya Hathwar, and Shripad Shingne, along with their team, will be joining Deloitte India.
These acquisitions will enhance Deloitte’s expertise in the Industry 4.0 era, where there is a high demand for data-driven solutions across various industries. By providing efficient, streamlined, and productive solutions, Deloitte aims to address the needs of the rapidly changing business landscape.
Romal Shetty, CEO of Deloitte South Asia, emphasized the significance of these developments, stating that the acquisitions mark Deloitte India’s first venture of this kind in the country. With supply chains realigning and progressive policies like the Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) schemes attracting manufacturers, India is on track to become a global “smart factory,” making the timing of the acquisition opportune.
Through its expanded operations and strategic acquisitions, Deloitte is positioning itself to meet the evolving needs of clients in the dynamic and technology-driven business environment, while also leveraging India’s talent and growth potential.
