Indian IT/ITeS industry is expected to grow at 13.9% (CAGR 2008-13) to touch INR 534,479 Crore (over US$
110 Billion) in 2013; with the domestic market growing at a slightly higher 15.8% (CAGR 2008-13) to report
revenues of Rs. 2,06,398 crore as against export revenues of Rs. 3,28,081 crore, a growth of 12.7% (CAGR
2008-13), according to IT advisory firm IDC estimates
In 2009, the overall India IT/ ITeS industry is expected to grow at 10.8%, to touch INR 3,09,573 Crore (over
US$ 64 Billion). The domestic market is estimated to grow at 10.2%, to touch INR 1,09,406 Crore (over US$ 22
Billion) and at the same time, exports are expected to grow at 11.2% to cross INR 2,00,000 Crore (over US$ 41
Billion).
These projections were made by IDC India on the occasion of the launch of their annual briefing session for the
ICT industry, Directions.
“Though there are certain signs of a revival happening in the domestic arena, the spending may
not begin to increase just yet. IT spending behaviour would remain conservative throughout
2009 due to uncertainty in the economic environment. The hardware market will remain under
pressure through the year, while the software and IT services markets will also be affected,
though to a comparatively lesser extent”, IDC India Country Manager Kapil Dev Singh
said.
