Recognized for its sustainability, the campus has received Gold Certification from the Indian Green Building Council.

He assured HCL representatives of full support in expanding the IT sector to tier-2 and tier-3 cities across Telangana, creating inclusive opportunities for growth and employment.
Since 2007, HCL Technologies has been delivering services to global clients from Hyderabad. With the addition of this new facility, HCL’s presence in the city will grow to five centers. HCL CEO Vijayakumar expressed confidence that the new center will bring advanced capabilities and further establish Hyderabad as a vital part of the company’s global network.
The center is scheduled to be inaugurated next month, marking a significant milestone in Telangana’s journey toward becoming a global IT powerhouse.
