| Advantage Gujarat |
|
| The Government of Gujarat is committed
to promote socio-economic and industrial development.
Gujarat has emerged as India's most preferred destination
for investments as per the latest figures of Department
of Industrial Policy and Promotion (DIPP), Government
of India. Gujarat has also clocked one of the highest
GDP growths among Indian states. This success across
industries is now being replicated in the field of
IT. |
|
| The state provides the ideal environment
for the ITES and BPO phenomenon to scale new heights.
Drivers include a business-friendly atmosphere, relatively
lower real estate and manpower costs. Human resource
advantages stem from high education standards, better
productivity and the country's lowest BPO attrition
rate. Infrastructure scores high with nearly 100%
power and connectivity uptime. All this translates
into shorter lead and delivery times for projects.
No wonder, more than 50 BPO outfits are reaping the
benefits of starting operations here. |
|
| The state government has made a
long-term commitment to the Information Technology
industry with initiatives in policy, facilitation
of IT infrastructure, nurturing of a sound human
resource base and active involvement in urban development.
The IT industry in Gujarat is at an exciting phase
with the recognition of the domestic talent coupled
with opportunities of partnering with global enterprise. |
