The use of remote working has been encouraged by major IT Firms. Employees at Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and Infosys have just received emails announcing the commencement of office hours. A hybrid working paradigm has also been encouraged by other Indian IT firms like HCL Tech and Wipro.
After operating for many years in India’s Tier I cities like Bengaluru, Mumbai, and Delhi, big IT businesses are now starting to expand into the Tier II and Tier III cities in the nation. The new Infosys office in Yelahanka, Karnataka, is a recent example of this trend. The campus officially opened its doors on Monday, and the human resources division informed staff members of the new arrangement through email.
The business claimed that the new location will support its hybrid work paradigm in an internal email to staff members. We are happy to announce the opening of our new North Gate facility in north Bengaluru, which will further encourage flexibility and allow you to work remotely and near your residences.
Infosys has also opened offices in tier II towns like Visakhapatnam and Coimbatore as part of its attempts to quicken the adoption of its hybrid work approach in an effort to take advantage of the talent pool there.
In addition, not only Infosys but other large IT companies are building offices in tier-II and tier-III cities to allow staff members to work closer to their families. Accenture, a prominent IT company that had until recently only operated in India’s main cities, recently opened operations in Jaipur and Coimbatore. This gave the company access to a larger talent pool and gave its workers more freedom to choose where they would work.
Another Indian IT firm, Persistent Systems, has used similar techniques to entice staff members to the workplace. It has established branches in Nagpur and Goa. In addition to others, TCS maintains offices in Tier II cities around India, including Bhubaneswar, Kochi, Thiruvananthapuram, Nagpur, Indore, Varanasi, and Gandhinagar.

The increased infrastructure and internet penetration, according to Sumit Sabharwal, CEO of Teamlease HRtech, has also made it easier for businesses to open offices in tier II and III towns.
In contrast to a few decades ago, Sabharwal said, “Moving to tier 2 and tier 3 cities makes greater commercial sense. The use of the internet, education, infrastructure, supply chains, transportation, and logistics have all advanced significantly. Businesses are becoming increasingly interested in Tier II and Tier III cities because they now provide more scalability.
In addition to having easy access to infrastructure, tier two and tier three cities tend to have reduced real estate and maintenance expenses, which attracts big names in the IT industry.
