Alphabet Plans Major Expansion in India with New Office Space

Alphabet, the parent company of Google, is reportedly planning a significant expansion of its operations in India, according to external media sources. According to Jin10, the company is considering leasing millions of square feet of new office space in Bangalore, India's tech hub. Insiders reveal that Alphabet has already leased an office building in the Elm Vibe City development and has secured purchase rights for two additional buildings. Elm Vibe City is part of the Whitefield tech corridor, covering a total area of 2.4 million square feet. The first building is expected to open to employees in the coming months, while the construction of the other two buildings is set to be completed next year. If Alphabet utilizes the entire office space, the campus could accommodate up to 20,000 new employees, potentially more than doubling its current workforce in India. Alphabet currently employs approximately 14,000 people in India, with a global workforce of around 190,000.
