Gurgaon is the sixth largest city in the Indian state of Haryana. Gurgaon is the industrial and financial center of Haryana. An important town in ancient Hindu mythology, Gurgaon is one of Delhi's four major satellite cities and is part of the National Capital Region of India. Gurgaon is regarded as the best city in India to work and the best city in India to live, according to a survey by Business Today magazine.. Gurgaon is also the only Indian city to be able to successfully have distributed electric connections to all households. However, owing to heavy vehicular traffic and inefficient public transportation apart from the Delhi Metro, Gurgaon ranks 11 amongst Indian cities on the "Life after Work" index of Business Today. Gurgaon has the 3rd highest per capita income in India after Chandigarh and Mumbai.
Over the past 10 years the city has undergone rapid development and construction. A wave of multinational companies choose to locate their operations in Gurgaon after GE did so in 1997. This has made Gurgaon the call centre capital of the world, and an important financial center of India.
