India remains among best-performing major economies: S&P Global

New Delhi: S&P Global has reaffirmed confidence in India’s growth outlook, saying the country continues to be one of the best-performing major economies globally despite ongoing geopolitical uncertainties.


Saugata Saha, president of S&P Global Market Intelligence, said India remains a critical hub for the company, supported by a strong talent base, prompting further expansion of its local operations.




“India is poised for growth and remains one of the best performing major economies in the world. It is an extremely important hub for S&P Global with exceptional talent that is fundamental to our global strategy,” Saha said.


The company has expanded its footprint with a new office in Gurugram, marking a significant investment and reinforcing India’s role as a key centre for global talent and innovation. The facility will house more than 3,500 employees across technology, data, operations and customer-facing functions.


With over 16,000 employees already based in India, S&P Global is deepening its presence as it looks to leverage the country’s skilled workforce and growing strategic relevance in global operations. “This investment reflects our confidence in India’s future and our commitment to providing our people with an environment that fosters innovation and collaboration,” Saha added.


The new hub has been designed as a future-ready workspace, featuring advanced client collaboration zones, technology-enabled workstations, and dedicated spaces for innovation and employee wellbeing. Amenities include interactive client experience rooms, podcast studios, ideation zones, and wellness facilities.


Nilam Patel said the office reflects a “people-forward approach,” aimed at fostering innovation, collaboration and overall employee wellbeing.


The expansion is part of S&P Global’s broader growth strategy in India, with a focus on high-value job creation and skill development. Teams in Gurugram support multiple divisions including S&P Global Ratings, Market Intelligence, Enterprise Data Organisation, and Energy.

CRISIL, an S&P Global company, also maintains a strong presence in the country, complementing the group’s engagement with Indian markets.
