History

The Electronics Committee also known as the "Bhabha Committee" created a 10-year (1966–1975) plan laying the foundation for India's IT Service Industries. [10] The industry was born in Mumbai in 1967 with the establishment of Tata Consultancy Services [11] who in 1977 partnered with Burroughs which began India's export of IT services. [12] The first software export zone, SEEPZ – the precursor to the modern-day IT park – was established in Mumbai in 1973. More than 80 percent of the country's software exports were from SEEPZ in the 1980s. [11]

Within 90 days of its establishment, the Task Force produced an extensive background report on the state of technology in India and an IT Action Plan with 108 recommendations. The Task Force could act quickly because it built upon the experience and frustrations of state governments, central government agencies, universities, and the software industry. Much of what it proposed was also consistent with the thinking and recommendations of international bodies like the World Trade Organization (WTO), International Telecommunication Union (ITU), and World Bank. In addition, the Task Force incorporated the experiences of Singapore and other nations, which implemented similar programs. It was less a task of invention than of sparking action on a consensus that had already evolved within the networking community and government.

Regulated VSAT links became visible in 1994. [13] Desai (2006) describes the steps taken to relax regulations on linking in 1991:

In 1991 the Department of Electronics broke this impasse, creating a corporation called Software Technology Parks of India (STPI) that, being owned by the government, could provide VSAT communications without breaching its monopoly. STPI set up software technology parks in different cities, each of which provided satellite links to be used by firms; the local link was a wireless radio link. In 1993 the government began to allow individual companies their own dedicated links, which allowed work done in India to be transmitted abroad directly. Indian firms soon convinced their American customers that a satellite link was as reliable as a team of programmers working in the clients' office.

A joint EU-India group of scholars was formed on 23 November 2001 to further promote joint research and development. On 25 June 2002, India and the European Union agreed to bilateral cooperation in the field of science and technology. From 2017, India holds an Associate Member State status at CERN, while a joint India-EU Software Education and Development Center will be located in Bangalore. [14]

In the contemporary world economy, India is the largest exporter of IT. The contribution of the IT sector in India's GDP rose from 1.2% in 1998 to 7% in 2019. [15] Exports dominate the Indian IT industry and constitute about 79% of the industry's total revenue. However, the domestic market is also significant, with robust revenue growth. [16]

The industry's share of total Indian exports (merchandise plus services) increased from less than 4% in FY1998 to about 25% in FY2012. The technologically inclined services sector in India accounts for 40% of the country's GDP and 30% of export earnings as of 2006, while employing only 25% of its workforce, according to Sharma (2006). According to Gartner, the "Top Five Indian IT Services Providers" are Tata Consultancy Services, Infosys, Wipro, Tech Mahindra, and HCL Technologies. [17]

The IT and BPM industry's revenue is estimated at US$194 billion in FY 2021, an increase of 2.3% YoY. [3] The domestic revenue of the IT industry is estimated at US$45 billion and export revenue is estimated at US$150 billion in FY 2021. [3] The IT industry employed almost 2.8 million employees in FY 2021. [18] The IT–BPM sector overall employs 5.4 million people as of March 2023. [19] [20]

In 2022, companies within the sector faced significant employee attrition and intense competition in hirings. [21] Indian IT revenues grow fastest in a decade to $227 billion in COVID-19 pandemic -hit FY22. NASSCOM in its Strategic Review predicted that the IT industry can achieve the ambitious target of being a US$ 350 billion by FY26 growing at a rate of 11-14 per cent.[ citation needed ]

STPI envisaged under Digital India program launched the India BPO Promotion Scheme (IBPS). this scheme seek to incentivize establishment of 48,300 seats in respect of business process outsourcing (BPO) and information technology-enabled services (ITES) operations in India. STPI is the nodal agency of this scheme under the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology. In 2017 the Director General of STPI announced the launch of 48,000 such seats across the country, with a target employment of 72,450 in the sector. [22] [23] The government provides financial support of up to Rs 1 lakh per seat under two plans—India BPO Promotion Scheme and North East BPO Promotion Scheme. The Scheme was distributed among each State in proportion of the State's population with an outlay of Rs. 543 Crore. 50,000 employment were reported as of August 2023 under the India BPO Promotion Scheme (IBPS). [24]

Indian BPOs include Genpact, Infosys BPM, Pulsus Group and WNS Global Services. [25] [26]

Andhra Pradesh, as part of the Digital India IBPS Promotion Scheme (IBPS), has secured 13,792 seats out of a total of 48,300 seats available across India and created 10,000 jobs. [27] [28] Pulsus obtained 4,095 IBPS seats. 5,000 jobs were established in Visakhapatnam, with 4,000 of these being filled by women. [29] Pulsus also received Rs. 41 crore in viability gap funding, creating 25,000 jobs between 2008 and 2023, including 5,000 through IBPS.

Controversies

The Indian IT-BPM industry has the highest employee attrition rate. [69] [70] [71] [72] [73] In recent years, the industry has seen a surge in resignations at all levels. [69] [71] [73] As a global outsourcing hub, the Indian IT industry benefits from a lower cost of living and the consequent cheaper labor. [74] [75]

In the last decade most of the IT companies developed indigenous R&D and innovation capabilities to develop home grown IT products. [76] As the IT–BPM sector evolves, many are concerned that artificial intelligence (AI) will drive significant automation and destroy jobs in the coming years. [77] [78] Gedela Srinubabu underscored the importance of investing in education, envisioning a demand for 7 million AI engineers and data scientists to harness the $15 trillion global potential. Nevertheless, the ascent of AI carries a potential threat of replacing 50 million jobs globally by 2030, thus increasing the need for AI professionals and ethicists. [79] [80]

In recent years, many IT workers use forged experience certificates to gain entry into the Indian IT industry. [81] [82] [83] [84] [85] [86] [87] [88] These fake documents are provided by consultancies that are mainly operating out of Hyderabad and Bangalore. [81] [82] [83] IT professionals frequently use proxy interviews to clear interviews, but the majority of the phoney candidates are rejected during the interview round. [89]

A 2017 study of technical support scams published at the NDSS Symposium found that, of the tech support scams in which the IPs involved could be geolocated, 85% could be traced to locations in India. [90] Indian call centres are infamous for defrauding customers from the US and Europe. [91] [92] [93] [94] [95] [96] Kolkata, Bangalore, Hyderabad, and Mumbai are the main operating locations for these fraud call centres. [97] [98] [99] [100]

South India first started to overtake the rest of India economically in the 1980s. Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and Karnataka were noted by some to be more reform-oriented in terms of economic policy when compared to other Indian states. Over the last decade South India has grown at 8% annually. Future economic growth will be shackled by a relatively low proportion of the active age population to the number of dependents. Today, South India has about 20% of India's population, and contributes about 31% of India's GDP; it is projected to contribute 35% by 2030.
