As an Indian I'm proud of what Zoho has achieved. Mainly the founder Sridhar Vembu is down to earth & thinks for the well being of employees and society along with keeping customers in prime seat. Breaking conventional wisdom Zoho opened offices in tier 2 & tier 3 cities of India. Which made it possible for smaller cities to see growth induced by high earning employees of Zoho.

What are tier 2 and 3 cities refer to? I've never heard of cities referred to in this manner

[akmittal]

Tier-1 cities are top 7-8 Indian cities based on population. Tier-2 and Tier-3 are smaller cities

There is no golden rule, but assume tier-2 cities mayn't have airport, no famous schools, less than 2 or 3 million people living in there.

Most of the tier-1 cities has direct international or national airways connectivity.

Tier-3 cities may not even have a single factory, it is hub for 100s villages, has decent bus-connectivity to nearest tier-2 city.
