Doing Business in Delhi NCR: Considered the largest agglomeration in the world, Delhi NCR (National Capital Region) is comprised of the states of Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Haryana as well as the National Capital Territory of Delhi. The area covers approximately 33,578 sq. km and is home to over 17 million people. Delhi NCR was developed to compensate for the over population as well as the demand of increased industrialization in Delhi and New Delhi. The cities of Delhi NCR include Delhi, New Delhi, Gurgaon, Noida, Ghaziabad, and Faridabad.

– Noida
Some of the largest international companies call the city of Noida home. These include Adobe Systems, Fiserv, ATC Labs, GlobalLogic, EXL, and Interra.
