Building on the trust generated over years of delivering offshore IT services, India is now the natural destination for Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) in the world, Director General of the Commonwealth Business Council, Mohan Kaul has said. "If a company wants a quality software product to be created, then the leading global software experts are located in India. This is now an accepted fact. The city of Bangalore has become synonymous with technology and other regions, such as Gurgaon have become huge centres of excellence for BPO," he said speaking at the launch of Mark Kobayashi-Hillary's book 'Outsourcing to India:the Offshore Advantage' here on Wednesday night. "BPO alone was worth almost $4 billion to India last year, yet these direct gains in sales to Indian companies also generate other effects that assist in the development of the country," he said. Dr Kaul said that the concept of outsourcing to India has been a popular business strategy for several years, however the growth rates in the sector are continuing at a strong pace. more..
