Domestic IT market to grow 12.3% in 2015, touch Rs 1.7 lakh crore

By Aditi Gautam On Jan 1, 2015

In 2014, international revenues are at $86 billion and domestic $32 billion. Out of the $350 billion in 2025, $280 billion would be from international revenues while the balance $70 million would be domestic revenues.

IT spending in the domestic market is expected to grow 12.3 per cent to Rs 1.7 lakh crore this year, says a report.

According to research firm Coeus Age, the domestic IT industry revenue in India is expected to grow to Rs 1.7 lakh crore in 2015, against Rs 1.51 lakh crore in 2014 and Rs 1.38 lakh crore in the previous year.

The Indian IT market registered year-on-year growth of 8.1 per cent in 2013 and 9.8 per cent in 2014. After a very sluggish growth in 2013, the lowest since 2002, the year 2014 was a year of a rather slow recovery, the report said.

“Though 2014 was a watershed year with the formation of a stable government at the centre, renewed focus on reforms and lowering inflation, the real business impact will be clearly visible in 2015 only,” Core Quadrant Principal Analyst Kapil Dev Singh said.

What started as a slow recovery in business in 2014 will see further traction in 2015, he added. Singh said the impact on IT spending shall also be positive, though the expectation of more bang for the IT bucks shall continue. P
