The centre brings a unique business model to Saudi Arabia and serves as a rich training ground for building new capabilities, skills and careers for women in the country.
TCS established the first all-women Business Process Services (BPS) centre in Riyadh in 2013.
'I invite all of you to come together to India and you will see for yourself the impact you will make on Indians,' he said.
Modi stressed that in the IT profession, India has made its place in the world.
'I would also like to heartily congratulate TCS that in India they have set up a training centre which trains young men and women, and those trained men and women, go out in the digital world and empower the entire world,' he said.
'And in human resources human power plays a very important role, if the capacity of the woman are built and they are linked with the development process, then development of any country is speeded exponentially,' the Prime Minister said.
'In this very competitive world today, if we are to progress then all forces have to progress together and have to move ahead and in it when I say forces, we are talking not only natural resources but also human resources.'
At the TCS Centre 1,000 women work in BPO Operations, 85 per cent of whom are Saudi nationals.
'All of you must come to India; I assure you a very warm reception. The atmosphere I am witnessing here today has the potential to give a strong message to the world,' Modi said.
He spent around 40 minutes at the centre and even posed for selfies.
'For the world it is considered to be main headline news that in Riyadh today I am meeting those IT professionals who I can say today represent the glory of Saudi Arabia,' Modi said while interacting with Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) women professionals in Riyadh.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday interacted with Saudi women IT professionals at the first-of-its-kind all-women TCS training centre in the heart of the city and invited them to come to India.
Modi stressed on the point that in the IT profession, India has made its place in the world.
