Going Remains Tough for India Outsourcing Providers


In late 2007, Indian outsourcing providers posted decent financial results but lowered their earnings guidance, leading many analysts to question whether they could sustain growth in the face of market pressures such as a slowing U.S. economy and a strong rupee.
