Accenture plans to set up a new campus in Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, aiming to add 12,000 jobs under a state policy offering land at ₹0.99 per acre. India is already Accenture's largest workforce hub, and this move follows similar expansions by TCS and Cognizant. The push into Tier-2 cities comes amid US' visa fee hikes and outsourcing tax uncertainties.
