'India will become global leader in software services'

The Indian software industry may be facing hard times, but Infosys is bullish about future prospects. Infosys CEO and MD S Gopalakrishnan (Kris) says India will emerge global leader in the software services industry. Mr Gopalakrishnan feels the threat of low-cost locations in other parts of the world is being played up. He says, “India will have the largest location for software services companies. India already has the highest number of software professionals in the world. India will be the primary or largest location for all these companies and the leadership will be here,” Mr Gopalakrishnan (Kris) said.
