Market snapshot
Dominant industries
Business districts
Karnataka's economy is led by Bengaluru's IT, GCC and startup base, but the state is also India's aerospace, space and defence centre, with HAL, ISRO, Bharat Electronics, BEML and National Aerospace Laboratories headquartered in Bengaluru. Beyond the capital, Mangaluru (Dakshina Kannada), Hubballi-Dharwad and Belagavi are the largest revenue-generating districts, and automotive plants operate in Mysuru and Dharwad.
Beyond Bengaluru's GCC and SaaS buyers, aerospace and defence demand runs through PSUs (HAL, BEL, BEML) with tender-based procurement and long qualification cycles. Manufacturing buyers in Mysuru and Dharwad are plant-led and often tied to national or global parents.

Infosys, Wipro and Mphasis are headquartered in Bengaluru, SAP's largest lab in Asia is there, and Salesforce, Databricks and Oracle Financial Services Software all have Bengaluru offices.
