According to Nasscom, the Indian IT industry will witness healthy growth this year, led by growth in the core markets and supplemented by significant contributions from the emerging markets. Growth drivers include a thrust on platforms like BPO, analytics, finance and accounting, remote infrastructure management, ADM, and cloud services. The Indian IT-BPO industry is expected to exceed $70 billion in FY'11. The industry headcount addition is expected to double this year to touch 2,00,000 new employees, leading to 2.5 million direct employment. Speaking on the launch Nasscom President Som Mittal said, "The year 2010 should be considered as a 'return-to-growth' year with marginal increase in budgets and essential enterprise IT spending. NASSCOM will continue to facilitate and collaborate to support the industry's growth, as it embarks in the next decade. We visualise a broadening of our role - one that entails greater collaboration across markets, sectors and within India."
