New Delhi , April 4 Audit and consultancy services firm, Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu today said it would strengthen its Indian operations by doubling the headcount to 12,000. Mr William G. Parrett, CEO of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu, USA said, "We are working on generating around nine per cent of our global revenues from the country and would increase our headcount to 12,000 by 2010." The firm currently employs around 6,500 people across 13 locations in the country.

The centre would also train personnel in auditing, consultancy, risk assurance and enhance its presence by bringing more firms under its umbrella for its niche services.
