    "Acquisitions were a part of the growth strategy for Tricom and we hope to grow organically and inorganically." says Chetan Kothari, MD of Tricom India. He further stated, "Post acquisition, the core team of GGSL will continue functioning in their respective positions and capacities."

    GGSL currently employs nearly 650 people and has 2 facilities; one at Belapur in Navi Mumbai and the other in Chennai.
