India’s exports from the Software Technology Parks (STP) across India are rising at a pace of 8 to 10 percent annually and would further increase in the upcoming years as the industry spreads across the country, a senior sector official said.
“There are huge software technology markets across the world and India’s export prospect from the sector is extremely vivid,” Software Technology Park of India (STPI) director Prabir Kumar Das told IANS.
“Currently India’s yearly export growth from the software technology is 8 to 10 percent. After setting of under construction STPs in different states of the country, the export growth would be at much higher speed.”
Das said the overall exports increased from Rs. 226,712 crore in 2011-12 to Rs. 251,498 crore in 2012-13 and the overseas trade further increased to Rs.275, 000 in the 2013-14.
Karnataka, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal, Kerala, Odisha and Delhi are the leading ten states in India in software export.
The STPI, an autonomous society of the union ministry of communications and information technology, was set up in 1991 to implement the STP scheme and to promote software exports by providing infrastructure facilities including high speed data communication (HSDC) links.
