Infosys: Hiring in Indian IT sector to remain slow in 2013

Hiring activity in the IT sector is likely to be muted this year, Infosys Co-founder and Executive Co-Chairman S Gopalakrishnan has said.

"Hiring position seems to be muted this year because many companies still have deep bench (strength), in other words their utilisation rate is still low," he told PTI. 

The $100-billion India IT-ITeS sector faced strong headwinds in 2012-13 due to global economic slowdown and muted spending in North America and Europe, which accounts for 80 per cent of Indian IT companies revenues. 

Industry-body Nasscom expects a rise in global technology spending and opportunities created through adoption of disruptive technologies to propel growth in FY 2014. 

Nasscom expects export revenues of $84-87 billion in 2013-14 fiscal at a growth rate of 12-14 per cent. Exports were estimated to have grown by 10.2 per cent to $75.8 billion in FY 2013. 

The Indian IT industry, which contributes about 7.5 per cent to the country's economy, gives direct employment to 25 lakh people.

  Manor House - Telscombe Village  England  ESTUDIO HISTÓRICO / HISTORICAL STUDY : - Telscombe Village: - Introducción / Introduction : Telscombe village is set unobtrusively in a valley within stunning downland. The small village remains surprisingly remote and isolated given its close proximity to the urban coastal development at Saltdean, Telscombe Cliffs and Peacehaven. The settlement is linear in form running north-south. The village is accessed by car from the C7 Lewes to Newhaven road along a long, narrow country lane, which then runs through the village and peters out into a public footpath, which runs towards Saltdean over the Downs.
