The streaming giant, Netflix, also expands their presence in India with a new office planned to open March 12, 2026, in Hyderabad. The new facility would also become Netflix’s second office in the country, in addition to Mumbai. The new establishment will upgrade the company’s capabilities in visual effects (VFX), post‑production, and the production of digital content, delivering a much-needed boost for Hyderabad’s burgeoning media and technology ecosystem.

The Hyderabad office is set to be in HITEC City, the city’s leading tech hub. The facility will comprise 30,000–40,000 square feet and will act as the global hub for cutting-edge content production. Netflix hopes to use the office for high‑end VFX, post‑production services, and virtual production making India an even larger part of its global content pipeline.

Global media and entertainment companies have become increasingly accustomed to residing in Hyderabad. The city already serves the likes of Warner Bros. Discovery, Walt Disney, Ubisoft, Electronic Arts, Skyline VFX, and Barnstorm VFX. In addition to having a strong animation, gaming, and VFX talent pool, plus government support for AVGC (Animation, Visual Effects, Gaming, and Comics), Hyderabad is the ideal ecosystem for the growth of Netflix.

The new office will boost opportunities for artists, technicians, and other creative professionals in the region. It will also bolster India’s position as a global hub for digital content creation. Industry professionals say Netflix’s investment will bring other global companies to the city of Hyderabad, expanding the city’s media strength.

The Hyderabad office is more than just expansion for Netflix. It reflects the company’s dedication to a lucrative market in India for both content consumption and production. India’s streaming audience is growing rapidly and the move is a way for Netflix to play to local talent while producing content that will resonate with global audiences. And that raises the profile of the office for Hyderabad, further cementing its position as a global entertainment technology leader.

The decision of Netflix to open a new office in Hyderabad on March 12, 2026 represents a milestone for India media. Centered on VFX and post‑production, the facility will help support Netflix’s ambitions for global content but also provide more opportunities for local talent. The shift bolsters Hyderabad’s position as a digital entertainment and technology innovator on the fast-growing scene.
