UST Global expands its footprints in India

Chennai: After being a prominent employer in the IT sector in tier 2 cities in Kerala, California-based IT services company UST Global has embarked on an expansion in Bangalore.

Company officials said UST Global's new facility in Bangalore can accommodate 500-600 associates, with the capacity to expand up to a headcount of 5,000. In Kerala, the company operates out of Thiruvananthapuram and Kochi.

UST Global chairman Satendra Gupta said the company's operations had been centred around India and the Philippines, and that it made sense to the company to step up its presence in India's IT capital.

Company country head Alexander Varghese said the availability of a large talent pool was one of the key attributes that went in favour of the company choosing Bangalore for expansion.

In Kerala, the company is building a campus in the Thiruvananthapuram special economic zone. The 3 million sq ft campus is expected to be a major hub for offshore IT services offered by the company, which focuses on delivering IT and business solutions to the Global 1,000 market.
