10 INDUSTRY OVERVIEW With the advent of 2014 market is showing steady signs of a slow revival especially from its largest market, US has shown some early signs of pick-up in discretionary spends which coupled with strategic initiatives by the companies will improve momentum to 15% plus year-on-year growth in Financial year The Indian IT is gearing up to meet this demand by strengthening their sales and resources largely in the US market. Healthy pick-up in spending in key markets of North America and scope for accelerated market share gains in Europe can support 15% growth for the Industry. Numerous changes within the global IT Industry has brought into focus areas such as cloud, mobility, analytics, social to the fore,with Indian IT firms adapting rapidly. The global economy is set to get stronger in 2014, with growth likely to edge up to 3.2 percent this year, up from 2.4 percent in 2013, according a World Bank report. Worldwide IT spending is projected to total $3.8 trillion in 2014, a 3.1 percent increase from 2013 spending of $3.7 trillion, according to the latest forecast by Gartner, Inc. The Indian software market grew 10% to $4.76 billion in 2013 from $4.33 billion in 2012 driven by strong adoption of cloud or subscription based services, as per Gartner report. India is growing faster than other emerging countries which can be attributed to an export-oriented focus over the last decade. IT services spending to increase from USD 922 billions in 2013 to USD 963 billions in 2014 as per Gartner Report. Further, recent advances in IT communications infrastructure in the country has opened up new avenues for local consumption of IT software and associated services. Among the BRICS nations the Indian software market experienced the highest growth rate. Opportunities For the current fiscal year ending March, Nasscom said the country's software exports will grow at about 13%.Although there is an economic slowdown, Indian enterprises are still judiciously investing in technology that can be tied to the business objectives and impact their bottom line. As per Gartner report, Indian enterprises are generally more price sensitive compared with enterprises in mature markets but now they are spending on technology that offers a significant upside in terms of agility or productivity gains with diligent planning. Besides large enterprises the Indian market also boasts a large potential small and midsize business (SMB) that is playing a crucial role in changing the consumption patterns of technology. As per Nasscom software exports in would rise to as much as $99 billion, from about $86 billion estimated for this fiscal year ending March. Including the domestic market, the Indian IT industry is currently pegged at $118 billion. The business of designing and building software applications or managing the IT infrastructure for large multinationals has not suffered any huge dent, even in an uncertain global macroeconomic environment. Clients in North America and Europe may have cut down on 'discretionary' IT spends, but they still need to keep existing

11 systems running. To the extent these routine application development and maintenance operations are outsourced or off-shored, Indian IT firms, with their massive, relatively low-cost engineering workforce, will continue to get business. The pressure to out-source as a cost-saving measure is, indeed, higher in a general downturn. This explains why Indian IT exports rose by 13 per cent in , despite worldwide IT spending clocking a niggardly 0.4 per cent growth. With technology research firm Gartner projecting that global IT budgets will grow by 3.2 per cent this year, the outlook for domestic software vendors can only get better. They could benefit both from an expansion of the outsourcing pie as well as revenues from more 'discretionary' sources such as product engineering, testing, package implementation and consultancy services. Competition Risk The competition from countries such as China, Philippines, Vietnam, Poland, Hungary, Mexico, Brazil, and Egypt poses a great challenge for India. While India still remains as the preferred destination for outsourcing activities, many other countries have started providing similar type of services and are fast emerging as competitive locations. Currently India accounts for 20-25% of R&D off shoring whereas China is behind with 15-20% market share. North America may account for the lion's share of India's IT exports but, growing demand for outsourcing services from Europe is expected to drive the USD 108 billion IT sector in Europe is growing faster than the US and this will only gain momentum. There is a lot of latent demand in the region, which will drive growth for the sector. Companies are bullish on the European market, which is evident from the acquisitions that some of them have made in the recent past. Growth in emerging economies such as India and China is expected to jump with growth forecasts for the economies at 6.2 percent and 7.7 percent, respectively. However rich economies such as the United States, Eurozone and Japan are likely to lead much of the global growth forecast. According to Nasscom report, growth in the US is likely to increase to 2.8 percent in 2014, higher than 1.8 percent last year. The Euro area is finally set to put behind two years of de-growth and may notch 1.1 percent growth in the year. The report attributes the greater expected strength to these economies easing their austerity policies. Thus the Indian ITeS sector needs to make extra endeavor to remain competitive in terms of cost efficiency measures and scalability of various high end services to handle competition. Future Outlook After a gloom in the early part of last year, the bloom has begun. With the changing Technologies comes the change in Business Models and vice-versa. This is the trend in the IT Industry worldwide. While, this change is still in the infant and Greenfield stage, the rapid changes in the new Business Scenario have come to stay. This is the good news. The adaption of the new technology in the areas of Social Media, Mobility, Analytics and Cloud ( SMAC) is creating positive disruption across Industries. India is very well poised and stands to ride at the top of this wave. The trend is upbeat for the IT Services, Engineering & R&D, Internet & Mobility and Software Products.
