Zurich pays the highest software rates in Europe — CHF 150 to 250 an hour at local agencies, with senior salaries to match. Some of that premium buys genuine quality. A fair amount of it just buys the postcode. GTS Infosoft offers the other arrangement: senior India-based engineers from around USD 20 an hour, working under ISO 9001:2015 process, for companies that want Swiss-grade output without routing their dev budget through Bahnhofstrasse rent.
The fair question is whether offshore can meet Zurich's standards. Our answer is process, not promises: sixteen years in business, 250-plus delivered apps, requirements documented before code starts, testing traceable to the requirement it covers, and handover files a bank's vendor-review team can actually read. We've built for finance, insurance and enterprise buyers who audit their suppliers, and we structure our work expecting to be audited.
Switzerland runs on CET, which puts India 3.5 hours ahead in summer and 4.5 in winter — your whole morning and early afternoon are shared working time, with sprint demos landing around 2pm Zurich time. On data: we build to the revised Swiss FADP and the GDPR both, sign DPAs, and deploy where your rules require — Swiss cloud regions included, if residency matters. No Zurich office. We're offshore, and we say so.

What We Build for Zurich Companies
Banking and wealth platforms
client portals, reporting dashboards and onboarding flows with audit logging designed in from the first commit, not patched in before review.
Insurance tools
claims intake, broker portals and policy-administration workflows that replace the spreadsheet-and-PDF pipelines still running underneath many Swiss insurers.
Enterprise systems
internal tools, system integrations and data platforms for organisations where the legacy system isn't going anywhere and the new software must coexist with it.
AI and document intelligence
extraction, classification and analysis for paperwork-heavy sectors — finance and insurance generate the documents; we build the software that reads them.
Mobile apps
native Swift and Kotlin, or Flutter and React Native — chosen on the merits of the project, and we'll show the reasoning either way.
Why Zurich Businesses Choose GTS
The widest cost gap we serve
USD 20 an hour against CHF 150–250 locally. Nowhere else in Europe does the same work carry a bigger price difference.
Process that survives vendor review
ISO 9001:2015 certification, documented requirements, traceable testing and access-controlled repositories — the file your procurement team wants to see actually exists.
Stable senior teams
the engineers who start your project finish it. Continuity matters more on regulated builds than anywhere else, and we staff for it.
Data protection by design
revised FADP and GDPR treated as build inputs — logged access, deletion routines, and hosting placed wherever your residency rules point.
Mornings in common
3.5 to 4.5 hours of difference means live standups, live reviews and answers before your lunch, not after it.
Industries We Know in Zurich
Banking and wealth management
portals, reporting and onboarding tools for a sector where an unlogged action is a finding. We build with the auditor in mind because your regulator already is.
Fintech and digital assets
Zurich and neighbouring Zug hold one of Europe's densest fintech clusters. We build the products, integrations and dashboards around it, at rates a pre-Series-A budget can carry.
Insurance
Zurich insures a remarkable share of the world from a few blocks of Mythenquai. We build the claims, broker and policy tools that sit under that business.
Pharma and medtech
validation-minded software with structured documentation — built by a team that already writes everything down, because our own certification requires it.
Deep tech and ETH spinoffs
research teams need product engineering around the core science. We build the app layer, the APIs and the dashboards while your PhDs stay on the hard problem.
How We Work With Zurich Clients
Paper before code
NDA, DPA and a fixed itemized estimate signed before development starts. Swiss clients expect the contract to be exact; ours is.
Engagement models that fit
fixed-scope builds, dedicated teams, or senior engineers added to your internal project under your management.
Demos in your early afternoon
sprint reviews around 2pm CET, live, with decisions made on the call rather than in a follow-up thread.
Documentation as a deliverable
Zurich clients read the documentation. We write it to be read — architecture notes, runbooks and handover files included in scope, not sold separately.
Full ownership at handover
IP assigned to you contractually, source and infrastructure access transferred completely. Nothing of yours stays behind.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have an office in Zurich?
No. We're in Jodhpur, India, and we serve Zurich entirely remotely — that geography is exactly where the saving comes from. A local presence would put the Swiss cost structure right back into your invoice, which would defeat the point.
How can USD 20 an hour possibly meet Swiss quality expectations?
Because the rate reflects geography, not seniority. A senior engineer in Jodhpur earns well at a fraction of a Zurich salary, so the price gap is cost-of-living arithmetic, nothing else. The quality controls — ISO 9001:2015 process, documented testing, sixteen years of delivery — travel with the team.
How do you handle Swiss data protection and the GDPR?
We build to the revised FADP and the GDPR together, since most Zurich companies answer to both. DPAs signed first, personal-data access limited and logged, deletion and export flows built into the product, and hosting placed by your rules — including Swiss cloud regions where residency is required.
Can you host our data in Switzerland?
Yes. The major cloud providers run Swiss regions — AWS and others operate out of Zurich itself — and we deploy there when your compliance or client contracts require in-country data. Where the data lives is your decision; making the architecture honour it is ours.
What does collaboration look like across the time difference?
Your morning is the core of it. India is 3.5 to 4.5 hours ahead, our team works into its evening, and so standups, reviews and quick calls all fit before your mid-afternoon. Written daily updates and shared boards carry whatever falls outside the window.
What clients say
“Working with GTS Infosoft has been a delight, from quality to reliability to performance to delivery. If we could do it all over again, I wouldn't have changed a thing.”
“Great to work with, very professional, responsive and proactive. Navratan keeps working on the job until it is complete.”
