Accenture, a big tech company, is planning to build a new campus in Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh. The campus will cover 10 acres and is expected to create around 12,000 new jobs in India.
India is already the biggest place where Accenture has its workforce, with more than 300,000 employees.
This new campus fits with a policy in Andhra Pradesh that gives companies land at very low prices if they help create jobs.
Other big tech companies like TCS and Cognizant have already made similar deals in the area.
These deals have added thousands of jobs and brought in investments between $150 million and $180 million.
This shows a bigger trend where IT companies are moving to smaller cities.
They do this to save money while also helping local job creation.
