BENGALURU: Indian IT<\/a> services firms have seen a decline in revenue over the past four quarters from local customers as they see an inconsistency in business from the government, the largest technology spender, holding back growth in the country.

Tata Consultancy Services, India’s largest IT services provider, saw revenue slow down to 5.6% in the quarter ending September from 6.3% a year ago. Infosys, its smaller rival, saw business from India drop to 2.5% from 3% in the same period.
HCL<\/a> Technologies and Tech Mahindra<\/a> did not disclose revenue for India separately.

Wipro has restructured its India business with two business lines — public sector focused on government contracts and the other targeting enterprises. The three firms have seen revenue slow down in the region. National Association of Software and Services Companies (
Nasscom<\/a>), India’s software lobby said that the government business has been saddled with procurement issues and challenges that have deterred companies to take up contracts. “As we look at the India market, one concern is the government business where companies had invested and there were procurement issues and challenges.

Companies are cautious of where to invest in government projects,” said Sangeeta Gupta, senior vice-president, Nasscom. Nasscom, however, is confident of private investments in the IT sector growing in the country. “The second big shift is that Indian enterprises are seeing a stronger adoption of technology because of the digital transformation,” she added.

Technology researcher
Gartner<\/a> said that India’s IT spending grew 4.5% in 2018 to $83.59 billion, nearly a third, lower than the 15.8% growth registered a year ago. This was due to a drop in spending on communication services, devices, data centre systems and IT services. In 2019, the total IT spending is expected to grow 6.7% to $89.23 billion on the back of improved IT services business, Gartner said last week.

Indian IT services firms may lose on the long-term business opportunity if they are not consistent in tapping customers in providing services and retaining them. “If you look at the Indian service providers, there is a hot and cold kind of behaviour that Indian clients are very wary of,” said Partha Iyengar, research vice-president at Gartner, at a recent conference.

However, companies said that they are seeing the business grow in India. “India has clocked smart growth for Tech Mahindra and continues to be a focused geography. We are confident of significant growth in our India business over time. Our growth is coming from across the market including the government and smart cities,” said Puneet Gupta, sales head -India, Tech Mahindra. “Over the past 12 months, we have won several marque projects that are helping us boost our growth momentum.” Tech Mahindra did not disclose specific numbers.

Wipro said that while it has split its India business into two, it sees increasing opportunity in the country to sell its new digital services. “It will see some revenue decline as you have been seeing even in the past few quarters as we get out of some of the services which primarily I would call as product-reselling services, productrelated services, feet-on-street kind of activity that we have been historically doing in the India market and some of the tail accounts and customer consolidation that we have done that,” Wipro CEO Abidali Neemuchwala told analysts on October 24.

“So, we are well on our path on the enterprise side, the government and PSU may take a little longer to make that pivot happen.” Mid-tier services firm Mindtree, which earns around 4% of its revenue from India, says that its local business is very narrowly focussed led by partners like SAP, Microsoft, Salesforce etc.

“The challenge is that sales cycles tend to be very long and relatively smaller deals. But it is the market that is embracing innovation. Historically, India adopted technologies that were present across the world. We are beginning to see more customers wanting to do more from an innovation perspective. For instance, Microsoft launched Kaizala which was launched for India, developed in India,” said Rostow Ravanan, CEO of Mindtree.

公司的谨慎投资于政府项目,“高级副总裁桑吉塔•古普塔表示,行业协会。然而,行业协会是自信的私人投资在IT行业的增长。“第二个重大改变是,看到一个更强大的印度企业采用技术的数字转换,”她补充道。

技术研究人员Gartner说,2018年印度的IT支出增长了4.5%至835.9亿美元,近三分之一,低于一年前注册的15.8%的增长。这是由于通信服务支出下降,设备、数据中心系统和IT服务。2019年,IT支出总额预计将增长6.7%,至892.3亿美元,提高IT服务业务,Gartner上周表示。

印度IT服务公司可能会失去长期的商业机会,如果他们是不一致的在开发客户提供服务和留住他们。“如果你看看印度服务提供商的行为有一种冷热印度客户很警惕,“艾杨格说,Gartner研究副总裁,在最近的一次会议上。

然而,公司说,他们看到在印度的业务增长。“印度马恒达科技公司以精明增长了,仍然是一个主要地理。我们有信心在我们的印度业务显著增长。我们的增长来自整个市场包括政府和智能城市,“医学院毕业Gupta说,销售主管印,Tech Mahindra。“在过去的12个月里,我们赢得了几个品牌项目,帮助我们提高我们的增长势头。“Tech Mahindra没有透露具体的数字。

Wipro表示,尽管其印度业务分成了两拨,这将增加机会的国家出售其新数字服务。“看到一些收入将下降,因为你已经看到在过去的几个季度甚至我们的一些服务,主要是我所说的product-reselling服务,productrelated服务,feet-on-street的活动在印度市场,我们一直在历史上做一些尾巴账户和客户整合,我们所做的,”Wipro CEO Abidali Neemuchwala告诉分析师在10月24日。

“所以,我们在路径在企业方面,政府和事业单位可能会花一点时间让主发生。“中间层服务公司Mindtree收入4%左右的收入来自印度,说它的本地业务非常狭隘的集中由合作伙伴如SAP、微软,Salesforce等等。

“挑战在于,销售周期往往很长,相对规模较小的交易。但它是拥抱市场创新。从历史上看,印度采用的技术是目前世界各地。我们正开始看到更多的客户想做更多的从创新的角度来看。例如,微软推出了Kaizala发起了对印度,在印度,”首席执行官表示,由于Ravanan Mindtree。TCS印孚瑟斯,HCL科技公司并未对此事作出回应。
