Zoom Video Communications Inc revealed on Tuesday new plans to open a technology center in the southern Indian city of Bengaluru.
It said it will start hiring staff as soon as possible as part of an expansion push in the country.
Potential areas of expansion for the new technology center include research and development, IT, security as well business operations, Velchamy Sankarlingam, Zoom's president of product and engineering, told a virtual news conference.
San Jose, California-based Zoom already has an office and a data centre in India's financial capital Mumbai and a second data center in Bengaluru, Reuters reported.
It could add more local data centers based on its growth needs, Mr Sankarlingam said. The company did not disclose investment plans for India or the number of people it planned to hire.
Use of Zoom's video conferencing services has surged at a time people across the world are working from home due to coronavirus curbs, but the company has also come under fire over privacy and security issues, spurring it to roll out major upgrades.
