How long does it take to set up a GCC in India?

What is the difference between Captive GCC, BOT, and EOR-first?
Captive: You own the entity from day 1. BOT: A third party builds and transfers it to you after 2–3 years. EOR-first: irpr.network employs your India team while you decide on a permanent entity. EOR-first → Pvt Ltd is the fastest and most flexible path.
