It is evolving, from the initial staffing to software development - where it is currently the world's major supplier of engineers - to integration and IT business consulting. STRENGTHS OF INDIAN IT INDUSTRY One of the largest pool of technically qualified high class IT manpower Enormous skilled human resource compared to developed countries leading to lower manpower cost nearly one tenth of those in developed nations, thus giving India a comparative advantage. Offers a wide range of services from support / data processing to sophisticated software systems etc. Rich experience of working with large global companies and enjoy high credibility Expertise on a wide variety of platforms Accommodating nature of Indian IT workforce QUALITY OF INDIAN IT EXPERTISE Today the world recognises India as a source of high quality IT manpower. Over 75 percent of world wide SEI CMM level 5 certified companies are Indian. The Capability Maturity Model (CMM) for Software describes the principles and practices underlying software process maturity and is intended to help software organizations improve the maturity of their software processes in terms of an evolutionary path from ad hoc, chaotic processes to mature, disciplined software processes. Over 300 Indian computer software and services have already obtained ISO 9000 or CMM level 2 certification. It is because of this high quality of Indian IT sector that the majority of multinational companies in IT have either their software development or research center in India. One third of the e-commerce start-ups 036
in the Silicon Valley continue to be lead by Indian. Over half of the Fortune 500 companies are outsourcing their software requirements to India. High quality of IT services has put Indian companies in worlds Top 100 Outsourcing companies such as Infosys, Wipro Technologies, Tata Consultancy Services, ACS Genpact, Neusoft, HCL, Igate, Mindtree, Tech Mahindra, Mastek, ITC, HCL Technologies, Zensar Technologies, Patni computers MANPOWER EMPLOYED AND EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS Software is a knowledge driven industry. It requires a team of highly skilled professionals for its success. Today, the Indian IT Services and ITES sector employs over 25 lakh knowledge professionals. Almost all major IT players in the world have set up subsidiaries or collaborations in India. The major attraction being an "abundance of technically qualified and cheap software manpower". This may have been the case before the start of the growth phase, but now there is, in fact, an acute shortage of qualified and trained manpower. This is getting reflected in the spiraling salaries (one of the highest average starting salary today), and more importantly, a frequent job-hopping culture. India, today have 7 Indian Institute of Technologies (IITs) and over 300 other Regional Engineering colleges / private colleges imparting IT education. As per a study approximately 5,00,000 people are needed every year to meet the growth targets of the software industry. However, the total production from education and training institutions today is only about a third of this.

INDIA'S ITES-BPO SUPPORTING OTHER LANGUAGES. The Indian BPO industry is now tapping global markets. After acquiring businesses from major English-speaking markets, especially Britain and the US, the Indian BPO companies are now looking towards non-english speaking markets to tap their potential in these unexplored terrains. A large number of companies from non- English speaking European countries too are eyeing the Indian BPO industry for outsourcing their work, leading to a spur in the demand for persons proficient in foreign languages. Today all the major ITES-BPO companies are offering multi language support and thus expanding the horizon of their services to the global markets. INDIA THE MOST PREFERRED ITES-BPO DESTINATION 040 Two million students graduate each year Strong domestic IT services industry to support IT led BPO. Largest SEI CMM companies worldwide US will continue to be the source of major business opportunities in ITES, followed by Europe. However, Asia Pacific is expected to the region with maximum growth potential. Major verticals, which are expected to grow substantially, include finance and accounting, sales and marketing, logistics, purchasing, administration and legal services. The growth Indian ITES market has shown that it has immense potential for sustained employment generation. The ITES segment, which employed about 40,000 people in late 1990s, presently employs more than 25,00,000 people. Job creation in the ITES sector has a multiplier effect on employment generation in the economy. Since a single job created directly in ITES segment results in additional three jobs indirectly in the related services such as security, transport and catering etc, the ITES segment has the potential 122,000 Engineers every year to create at least 3.1 million jobs by 2013.
