It's the technological revolution that at times brings surprising opportunities for some nations.

India, though not


among the front runners in terms of economic growth, has successfully utilized such opportunities in the revolution to
become an IT hotspot. For the past several years, India has been an increasingly favored destination for customized
software development. As a result, a number of software companies in India have come up. Not only the number of
players has increased in the Indian IT market, but at the same time, Indian software companies have done
considerably well in the global market. Such huge success of software companies in India has given birth to a new
speculation – whether other developing countries should imitate Indian example and whether the success of India
would constitute a competitive challenge to the software industry of the developed world or not.

The Software Industry in India

With the huge success of the software companies in India, the Indian software industry in turn has become
successful in making a mark in the global arena. This industry has been instrumental in driving the economy of the
nation on to a rapid growth curve. As per the study of NASSCOM-Deloitte, the contribution of IT/ITES industry to the
GDP of the country has soared up to a share of 5% in 2007 from a mere 1.2% in 1998. Besides, this industry has
also recorded revenue of US$ 64 billion with a growth rate of 33% in the fiscal year ended in 2008.

The export of software has also grown up, which has been instrumental in the huge success of the Indian software
companies as well as the industry. In fact, software export from India accounts for more than 65% of the total
software revenue. The domestic software market largely depends upon sale of software packages and products,
which constitute major part of revenues. Products account for almost 40% of the domestic market. On the other hand,
more than 80% of revenue from software exports comes from software services like custom software development
and consultancy services etc.

Reasons behind Success of Indian software companies

There are a number of reasons why the software companies in India have been so successful. Besides the Indian
software companies, a number of multinational giants have also plunged into the India IT market.

India is the hub of cheap and skilled software professionals, which are available in abundance. It helps the software
companies to develop cost-effective business solutions for their clients. As a result, Indian software companies can
place their products and services in the global market in the most competitive rate. This is the reason why India has
been a favorite destination for outsourcing as well. Many multinational IT giants also have their offshore development
centers in India.

IT Business Sectors

Most of the software companies in India are into varied types of business. There can be several types of business in
the IT sectors:

 Infrastructure Software: These include OS, middleware and databases.


 Enterprise Software: These automate business process in diverse verticals like finance, sales and
 marketing, production and logistics.
