India's 10 best IT companies in 2013

New Delhi: India’s IT industry which grew from nothing to $100 billion in 20 years ago, is perceived to be passing through a tough phase given the declining margins amid global economic uncertainty. The IT and allied services sector, has gained scale and prominence through on-time project delivery, deep domain knowledge, and solidified reputation for delivery of complex business-centric IT projects. 

The Indian IT industry has achieved a phenomenal growth of an estimated $ 108 billion in 2013 from an $8 billion in 2000. The industry took advantage of the vast pool of highly skilled resources available at low cost, and rode on the wave of application development and BPM services to spread its wings.

According to a CII report, newer technologies such as social media, analytics and cloud computing (SMAC) will help India’s IT-BPO industry cross $225-billion-mark in revenues by 2020.
