Alphabet Inc is planning to dramatically expand its presence in India, with the possibility of taking millions of square feet in new office space in Bengaluru, according to a Bloomberg report. Google’s parent company has leased one office tower and purchased options on two others in Alembic City, a development in the Whitefield tech corridor, totalling 2.4 million square feet, according to people familiar with the deal. In a response to a request for comment, Alphabet said it maintains a significant presence across several Indian cities, including Bengaluru. “We have only leased one tower,” a spokesman said in an email, saying it totalled 650,000 square feet of office space. Nasscom, India’s IT industry trade group, estimates such centres will employ 2.5 million people by 2030, up from 1.9 million today.
