I think Indian software companies, including the biggest ones, are generally overrated by quality, productivity and discipline.

I often have to interact with software professionals hailing from Indian companies, including Satyam. In my opinion, like 4-5% of them are highly skilled and very talented indeed, like 15% of them are ok for their jobs, but there are also like 80% who are not appropriate for what they are doing (or pretending to do).

This later category usually enters by gross lies about their skills and experience, entrenches by friends/relatives support, and survives by ‘framing’ bosses and ‘riding’ peers and subordinates.

100% agree with Naveed. On the other hand Pakistani specially in IT field are genius and sharp but lazy and don't kiss ... as much Indian do.

Some of my colleagues are also Indians and my opinion is that they have below average intellect. Only reason behind their success is the enormous opportunities given to them by Europe, America and UN.
Other reason behind their success is that they live like mafia and with full support from their local embassies. In case of Pakistan when ever I contact my embassy they try to cheat me.

I went for a simple course of three days together with people from all around the world and at the end in test only Indian failed but he was given second opportunity.

I have also worked, like Naveed mentioned some are super smart and rest are even below average BUT they care for each, they push each other. The biggest thing I figured is that they have humility unlike us. We are arrogant for no reason at all. We dont take care of each, we feel that other pakistanis are threat to us etc. etc.

Revenues of the 6 top most companies, (which are though a fraction of total industry, as rightly indicated by Naveed) account for over 40% of the overall industry. US continues to remain the key market for Indian IT companies, accounting for almost 70 % of the total IT exports from India. Wage inflation, slowdown in US economy, and competition from other low cost countries like China, Philipines and Vietnam are the main challenges faced by Indian IT industry today and are very likely to deter the industry in future.
Salam, its their high skills and professionalism that makes way for them in the international market, not that they succeed because they are given more opportunities.

Here is my 2 cents:

Indian:
- Indians have thick English accent and poor English. Most of them cannot pronounce zero (yero).
- Average intelligence power. You cannot find out MBA graduate for management post. In IT industry, most of them have passed high school with some diploma course.
- Consistence Govt. policy
- Full Govt. support
- Good country image
- Equal opportunities for Men/Women
- Making 60 Billion from IT industry.
- Good IT infrastructure
- 45 million internet users


Pakistanis:
- Light English accent and good English command
- Good intelligent brain power
- Non consistence Govt. policy
- No Govt. support
- Bad country image. Nobody wants to invest big money.
- There is very high ratio in job harassment for women at work place.
- Generating 1 Billion revenue from IT industry.
- Average IT infrastructure
- 4 to 5 million internet users

I believe we can make at least 10 billion from IT industry with little more efforts. There is a huge scope for IT call centers in Pakistan. As per PASHA we are getting left over or dead project from international market due to bad image of country.

Note: Lately NADRA was included in TOP 50 best organization using modern IT techniques.
