That would totally depend on what we consider as Tier 2 Cities. Pune has IBM, Accenture Cap Gemini & many more. Cap Gemini Has presence in Kolkata. Gurgaon has Accenture. I am sure I can add many more to the list. These are all operational offices, not the ones planned or under construction like in TVM. Hence my assertion that once the current projects are operational we will be on top of the Tier 2 Cities.

I consider Bangalore, Hyderabad & Chennai as the Tier 1 IT Cities of India.

If you consider Pune, Gurgaon/NCR and Kolkata as Tier 2, then I'd be happy to agree that Trivandrum is one of them.

First of all population is not the only factor for city to belong to different Tiers. Its area, its infrastructure, its educated crowd matters. City (Thiruvananthapuram) has a metropolitan population of more than 2.5 million - the district is the densest district in Kerala and has a population of close to 3.5 million. Further the population of the combined urban region of with its neighbour Kollam is more than 5 million.

ahem. ... None of the companies will look whats the population of the city as a whole for setting up their branch. It depends on the extend of talent available, the service offered, connectivity, and well ofcourse market potential.
And if you want population then a 1.1million city dwellers 2.5 million in metropolitan region and 3.5 plus in district isn't bad at all. By far thats the highest figures in kerala.

I appreciate your enthusiasm to provide the data. Anyway irrespective of the population many MNCs including Oracle, Accenture, Capgemini etc are setting ups their SDCs in Trivandrum. Moreover Infosys looking for their 2nd campus in Trivandrum without considering any other place in Kerala

The very fact that a city with <1 million population has attracted investments from real biggies in IT space warrants due credit. And these r long term investment decisions which are taken with due consideration weighting n number of factors benchmarked across alternate destinations within India n perhaps abroad as well...So it really is a significant achievement to the city.
