Hinduja Group, one of India’s large conglomerates, is investing $5 million through its subsidiary Hinduja Global Solutions (HGS) to expand operations in the Philippines and grow its local workforce by 1,000 employees by 2027.
The investment was among the key outcomes of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.’s meeting with Hinduja Group executives on August 7 in Bangalore, India, the Department of Trade and Industry said on Monday.
HGS’s expansion plans include new offices in Bonifacio Global City and Iloilo, as well as the recently launched AI Hub in Quezon City.
According to background materials provided by the DTI, HGS currently employs over 3,800 Filipinos across seven delivery centers located in Quezon City, Taguig, Cebu, and Iloilo.
The company provides digital solutions to global clients in sectors such as finance, healthcare, and technology.
Since entering the Philippine market in 2003, HGS has invested $50 million, making it one of the earliest and most enduring partners in the country’s IT-BPM sector, the DTI noted.
The Philippine delegation accompanying President Marcos also invited Hinduja Group to explore investment opportunities in renewable energy, mobility, automotive, banking, and other priority sectors under the Philippine Development Plan, citing strong complementarities between Indian and Filipino industries.
