"We aim to leverage the centre to serve its clients in the banking, financial services and insurance (BFSI) segment in a much more enhanced way by offering customised solutions. At present, the centre is 400 seater and we are planning to double the head count within two years,'' he said.

George said that the Jaipur centre will be developing software with bi-lingual capabilities, which is very critical for facilitating banking in smaller towns and rural operations of private or nationalised banks and as well as cooperative banks.
