5% of Life in the Rearview: Report Maps the Long Road for GCC Workers

Employees in Global Capability Centres (GCCs) in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, and NCR spend 5% of their lifetime commuting, as per a MoveInSync Q1 2025 report. Bengaluru's employees clock 50 minutes for 15 km one way, Hyderabad has an average of 45 minutes (16 km), and NCR 55 minutes (22 km) owing to cross-jurisdictional commuting

 

Hybrid work experiences 2–3 reporting days of employees per week, with Wednesdays being the most peak (82,000 cabbie bookings in Bengaluru). Small GCCs experience employees spending ₹15,000–16,000/month on commute, whereas bigger companies optimize costs with EV fleets (45,000 EV rides per month in Bengaluru) and pooling shuttles

 

Infrastructural gaps still persist, particularly along Bengaluru's ORR and Electronics City corridors where metro delays compound traffic. Hyderabad's cluster hubs and NCR inter-state routes highlight convergent challenges
