Mumbai: A Strategic Move by State Street Corporation

Global financial services giant State Street Corporation has made a significant investment in India by leasing an entire commercial office tower at the Equinox Business Park, located near Mumbai’s premier business district, Bandra-Kurla Complex (BKC). This long-term lease deal spans 10 years, with a rental commitment exceeding ?350 crore. The leased property, encompassing 250,000 sq ft, will house the company’s Global Capability Center (GCC), underscoring Mumbai's growing prominence as a hub for global operations.

Details of the Transaction

The ground-plus-six-storey tower, part of the expansive 10-acre Equinox Business Park, has been secured under a lease agreement featuring a 36-month lock-in period and annual rental escalations of 4.5%. This facility will enable State Street to leverage India’s highly skilled workforce and cost advantages to streamline its global operations.

The New York Stock Exchange (NYSE)-listed financial services provider, headquartered in Boston, joins a growing list of international firms establishing GCCs in India, a trend that reflects the nation’s strong business ecosystem, robust talent pool, and advanced digital infrastructure.
