Singapore: Microsoft said it's bullish on India, especially the government's ongoing efforts to move services online. "The Indian government has a large-scale initiative for IT services," said Microsoft Regional Technology Office (Asia Pacific) Head Michael Thatcher. Speaking to PTI in Singapore, Thatcher pointed out the near 12 percent compounded aggregate growth rate for the industry between 2008 and 2013. He said, however, the Indian IT sector faces major challenges, especially in integrating the the IT system between central government operations and the autonomous state-based operations. An equally big challenge would be to work in the diversified Indian market, ranging from modernised institutions with IT connections and the vast majority of rural population yet to be served by the technology, Thatcher said.
