India has emerged as a leader in workplace culture in Asia, with 48 of the top 100 organisations operating in the country, according to a report released on Monday. The report was published by Great Place To Work, a global surveyor of workplace culture.

The report showed that these 48 companies fall under the large companies’ category. In the mid-size category, 12 companies operate in India. This reflects “the country's growing leadership in workplace culture and employee experience,” the report noted.

The 2025 list highlights that companies recognised as the best workplaces in Asia have higher numbers of employees reporting positive experiences at work compared to a typical workplace in the region. The report also pointed out that when companies build high levels of trust with employees, they are more likely to handle disruptions, including the rise of generative AI.

“These leading companies are showing the way, building workplaces that make communities stronger, nations more prosperous, and the world a better place,” said Michael C. Bush, CEO of Great Place To Work. “What sets the winners of the 2025 Best Workplaces in Asia apart is the consistent positive employee experience across factors that truly define great workplace culture,” he added.

Among the companies operating in India that were recognised on this year’s list are Novartis, Schneider Electric, Ericsson, Visa, and NVIDIA in the Large Category.

The report is based on confidential survey data from over 3.2 million individual responses, representing the experiences of nearly 7.5 million employees across Asia. It noted that 91 percent of employees feel involved in decisions that impact their work, up from 86 percent last year. Similarly, 86 percent reported fair and unbiased treatment from their reporting managers, up from 83 percent last year. Over 93 percent of employees said they are treated fairly regardless of age, gender, position, race, or sexual orientation.

“It is no surprise that employees at these winning organisations feel immensely proud, connected, and confident in the leadership team's vision and competence,” said Balbir Singh, CEO, Great Place To Work India. “This is a powerful testament to the culture of fairness and excellence cultivated by these workplaces. The notable representation of many Indian organisations on this list is truly commendable,” he added.

This report reinforces India’s growing prominence in creating strong, inclusive, and trusted workplaces in Asia.
