Industry Overview

 

India has enormous opportunities emerging from globalization and consequent lowering of tariff barriers. Information Technology has given India formidable brand equity in the global markets. The Indian Software Industry has been moving up the value chain as well. Indian software companies have a unique distinction of providing efficient software solutions with cost and quality as an advantage by using state of-the-art technology. Through joint efforts of Government and the Industry, software development and IT enabled services have emerged as niche opportunities for India in the global context. The Government has been making continuous efforts to make India a front-runner in the age of Information revolution. India today has the advantages of skilled manpower base, active and healthy competition amongst states in attracting investment in infrastructure as well as framing IT applications in areas such as e-governance, e-learning, e-commerce, entrepreneurship, software exports growth and a large potential in the domestic market. Information Technology Act dealing with Cyber Security, Cyber Crime and other information security related legal aspects is in place. Through a policy of sustained R&D in cutting edge technology, we hope to further increase and broad base our exports while also expanding the domestic market.

 

India has the potential to develop and manufacture electronics/IT hardware for the global markets and gain higher global share besides meeting the country’s future requirement in the converging areas of information, communication and entertainment. As a result of technological convergence at the infrastructure, services and industry level; there has been a tremendous up-surge in new products and also consolidation in the underlying industries through acquisitions and mergers.

 

Consequent shift has been from monopoly of Government as service provider to private entry in telecom to promote competition and establishing a neutral regulatory agency. The essence of the convergence spirit and the vitality of changes have led to lowering of tariffs, plentiful availability of bandwidth at increasingly lower cost, competition and growth in technology.

 

Sales of Personal Computers (PC) crossed 3.6 million units during the year 2004-05, registering a growth of 20%. Sales in 2005-06 are expected to cross 4.7 million units. The growth in PC sales is largely attributed to increased IT consumption by Industry verticals and corporate sectors such as Telecom, Banking and Financial Services, Manufacturing and IT enabled services. Apart from these traditional sectors, higher consumption is also being witnessed in SMEs, IT training institutes and other computer centric small enterprises. In addition, the trend of increased PC purchase in households, smaller towns and cities is continuing. Aggressive pricing by the PC vendors has also helped improve the PC penetration, especially in the households and the SME segments. The Department has conducted a study on ‘Improving PC penetration in the country’. The report envisages a seven-fold growth in the domestic IT market by 2008 with annual PC sales at 28 million.

 

The software and services industry continue to be the dominating factor in the overall growth of the Indian industry. In 2004-05, the Indian software and services industry exports witnessed a healthy growth, with total exports reaching Rs. 801800.000 Millions (US$ 17.7 billion), an increase of 37% over the previous financial year. This segment will continue to show a robust growth and the total value of software and services export is estimated at Rs. 1032000.000 Millions(US$ 23.4 billion) in 2005-06, an increase of 29 per cent in Rupee terms and 32 per cent in dollar terms. The Business Process Outsourcing (ITES-BPO) sector has emerged as a key driver of growth for the Indian software and services Industry. The ITES-BPO industry is likely to grow by about 37% in 2005-06 to reach US$ 6.3 billion. In 2004-05, the Indian ITES-BPO industry grew by 48% to US$ 4.6 billion.

 

The Desktop PC market grossed 2.340 million units registering a growth of 36% in the first half of 2005-06 over the same period last fiscal. With sound macroeconomic condition and buoyant buying sentiment in the market, PC sales are expected to touch 4.700 million units during the year 2005-06. A similar growth trend was also witnessed in all other associated peripherals.
