A New Hub for Innovation in India
Developed in partnership with DLF India, the country’s largest real estate developer, Anaplan’s new 42,000-square-foot facility in Gurugram can accommodate up to 500 employees. The new hub brings engineering, product development, go-to-market, customer support, marketing and human resources teams together under one roof, strengthening the company’s presence in one of India’s key enterprise technology talent markets.
The Gurugram teams will also have a role beyond supporting Anaplan’s operations in India.

“The caliber of India’s engineering and AI talent is world-class,” said Sanket Deodhar, India Head, Anaplan. “Our customers, like Deepak Fertilizers, Alkem, Daimler Commercia Vehicles, and Hero Fincorp, span a number of India’s most critical industries, reflecting the massive reach of our platform across the country’s economy.
