Cambridge-based technology firm ARM would expand its operations in India and expects its design centre in India to grow the fastest in the world, a senior company executive said on Friday.

Atul Arora, president of ARM India commercial operations, said the company has grown from a 40-member team to the current level of 270 people in India in the last one year and three quarters.

"We have plans of adding further. We have no upper limit. We have to hire people with right technical expertise," Arora told PTI.

But he did not talk about any target plans on the hiring front in India of the London and Nasdaq stock exchange-listed firm.

"We believe ARM India design centre will grow the fastest among the five major design centres around the world," he said. In the west, Arora said ARM, which designs and sells specialist chips to the makers of mobile phones, digital cameras and entertainment products, is finding it difficult to hire technical people, like any other technology company.

He said in the US, the average engineer takes up MBA after graduation to be in the technology business area rather than just be a design engineer.
