Alphabet eyes massive Bengaluru office expansion that could double India workforce

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. The first tower is expected to open to employees in the coming months, while construction on the remaining two is set to conclude next year.
