R. Chandrasekaran
Chairman, NASSCOM

Dear friends,
It is my pleasure to Chair NASSCOM
in its 25th year and be a part of the
associations historic journey. What
began as a small office in New Delhi,
is now a phenomenal institution that
has been nurtured by its Founders,
Executive Council members and
past Chairmen.
The year 2014-15, therefore, was
dedicated to celebrating 25 years
of NASSCOM. We did this by rolling
out events across India where we
thanked all our stakeholders and
partners who have contributed to the
success of NASSCOM and the ITBPM industry.
The last 11 months have been
significant,
with
several
new
developments defining India and
shaping NASSCOMs agenda. As

Recognising the need for change


in the dynamic industry landscape,
NASSCOM initiated the repositioning
of the IT-BPM industry from a
cost arbitrage player to a strategic
transformational partner. NASSCOM
worked closely with leading global
consulting firms to showcase how the
sector was playing the role of a game
changer for customers and helping
them transform their businesses.
NASSCOM also strengthened the
Sectoral Councils it had set up in
2013, laying out the structure for
governance and the targets to be
achieved in 2015.
The focus during the year was on
expanding membership by reaching
out to more and more IT-BPM
organisations, especially start-ups
and emerging organisations across
Tier 1, 2 and 3 cities and townships
of the country.
In the area of global trade,
NASSCOM continued to engage
with international governments,
attempting to resolve long-standing
issues related to visas, mobility of
skilled manpower and other industry
concerns.
NASSCOMs
thrust
on Japan and China during the
year, will help the IT-BPM industry

gain traction in
elusive markets.

hitherto

On the skills development front too,


NASSCOM kept the momentum
going,
launching
occupational
standards and focusing on QP
adoption through its IT-ITeS Sector
Skills Council.
The chambers flagship initiative for
smaller firms the 10,000 startups programme shifted gears and
entered its next phase with the setting
up of warehouses in Bengaluru and
Kolkata along with new programs for
mentorship and industry connect.
Overall, NASSCOM focused on
creating an enabling, easy-to-dobusiness in environment for the ITBPM industry and on addressing
the pain points of member and nonmember organisations.
Going forward, NASSCOM will
continue to look at the horizon,
understand the digital transformation
sweeping the world and outline the
role that the Indian IT-BPM industry
can play in this emerging realm.
NASSCOM is already working
with McKinsey to provide a fresh
perspective on its 2020 vision. This
will be a detailed research that we
expect to release during 2015.
We would like to thank all our member
organisations for continuing to work
with NASSCOM and supporting the
organisation in all its endeavors.

discussions with the government on
the need to address current constraints
in eGovernance procurement.

R. Chandrashekhar
President, NASSCOM

2014-15 has been an exciting time to


be a part of NASSCOM. It has been a
period of great learning, new initiatives
and one where we have scaled
existing programmes.
NASSCOM sought the feedback of its
members on its performance through
a detailed and thorough Member
Satisfaction Survey. We thank our
member organisations for rating us
as the best industry association and
providing us with valuable feedback and
suggestions that will be incorporated
into our planning for 2015-16.
The year was significant from the
point of view of the Indian IT domestic
market as well, which remained on
NASSCOMs radar. To achieve our
goals for this market and enhance
awareness about IT and its criticality
to key industry verticals, NASSCOM
forged
important
partnerships

In an effort to support the Digital India


initiative launched by the government
in 2014, NASSCOM began work with
the policy makers on a framework
that will serve as a reference point for
the initiative. NASSCOM Foundation
launched its joint work with the
industry on the National Digital
Literacy Mission.
In the last year, NASSCOM continued
to introduce skills development
programmes that were aimed
at building a pipeline of middle
management in the IT-BPM sector. It
hosted training for middle managers,
marketing professionals, GIC leaders
and techies in an attempt to achieve
this goal.
As part of its Diversity and Inclusion
focus, NASSCOM continued to
promote best practices within
this domain, through awareness
programmes on Prevention of Sexual
Harassment, Women in Leadership,
Girls in Technology, and its
Diversity Awards.
The year saw NASSCOM engage with
the central and state governments to
solve problems related to paucity of

public transportation, particularly in


silicon hubs such as Gurgaon.
NASSCOM increased its participation
in discussions on global policy issues,
helping shape government opinion
through the Public Policy group of
WITSA, where it was elected as Chair.
Japan was the region of focus
for NASSCOM in 2013-15. The
association led a delegation to the
island nation to meet up with key
stakeholders. In the months ahead,
NASSCOM will work with the Japan
GIC Council and the government to
deepen this engagement.
It was additionally a year of innovation
for the IT-BPM industry and NASSCOM
continued to spearhead this effort
through the programmes launched
by its Product Council. Through the
year, Indian start-ups displayed their
innovative product through special
platforms, conclaves and showcases
hosted by NASSCOM.
During
2014-15,
NASSCOM
helped members remain abreast of
technological and business trends
by publishing more than 30 in-depth
research reports on these subjects.
We are glad to share that NASSCOMs
Noida campus is taking shape and
will become operational next year.
NASSCOM will continue to expand
its team and build its base of domain
specialists over the next 12 months.
I hope you will remain an active
participant in the numerous initiatives
NASSCOM is planning during 2015
and continue to lend support to our
strategic and ambitious plans.

and a commitment to leverage


technology, in particular ICT, for
realising development goals, offer
significant opportunities for the
Industry. NASSCOM is deeply involved
in the Digital India and skilling India
consultations, making suggestions
and offering a platform for the Industry
to showcase the transformative
impact, global capabilities as well
as concerns related to business
conditions to the Government
of India.
Several
announcements
and
clarifications related to existing policies
have been made in the last one year,
taking into account the issues raised
and associated recommendations
made by NASSCOM. The highlights
of our key engagements with the
government and their outcome are
as follows:

I. Budget Recommendations
The pre-budget discussions and
recommendations made to the
government have been targeted
to enable the IT industry to map a
sustained growth plan, and suggest
how best global competencies of the
ICT sector can be leveraged for growth
and development goals.
The success of the flagship initiatives
of the government Digital India
and Make in India offers tremendous
opportunities for the innovation driven
technology industry, and the success
also hinges on the sustainability and
continued growth of the technology
driven sector. Hence, factors that
can potentially restrict growth and
innovation and necessary aspects to
promote a growth oriented business
environment for existing players,
innovation driven start-ups and SMEs
were shared. Further suggestions were
made to encourage adoption and
migration to digital economy, thereby
helping government leverage the
inherent transparency and traceability
of online transactions.
Some of the salient recommendations
by NASSCOM are:
Addressing regulatory and tax

challenges for technology startups and SMEs, like:


Ambiguous software product
taxation including dual levies
and implementation issues
adding to the burden
Difficulties in access to funding
for low asset based firms
Investors difficulties related
to regulations and taxations
discouraging investors
Incentives for technology startups and SMEs:
Extend provisions on deduction
for employment and skill
development (Section 80JJAA),
R&D credits
Suggestions for new provisions
like
offsetting
manpower
training cost, deferred tax
credits for start-ups
Interest rates on penalty for service
tax, for amount under litigation,
should be rationalised
Towards Make in India:
In
recognition
of
the
transformative impact of IT,
extend incentives to the Indian
industry for adoption and
implementation of IT tools
for efficiency enhancement,
ensuring sustainability and
global competitiveness for the
success of the Make in India
programme.
Revoke exclusion of expenses
towards software tools for
R&D from weighted deduction
under the DSIR guidelines
to encourage adoption of
advanced R&D
Policy revisions/clarifications for
expansion of the industry:
Exports Foreign Tax Credit
policy, drawback scheme for
services and carry backward of
business losses
Domestic
business

Align royalty definition with


international practices, clarify

POPS rules, revisit amendments


made in CENVAT rules, restore
lower TDS rates on fees for
technical services and clarify
transfer pricing related issues
some of which were addressed
in the last budget but details
are awaited
Prevailing
conditions
and
prerequisites for participating in
government programmes are
onerous. Further, SMEs face stiff
barriers in the eligibility criteria.
There is a need to revisit and
refine the procurement process
for government projects
Several long pending issues that
require clarifications to minimise
disputes were also raised and it
was agreed that the industry will
leverage the recently constituted
High Level Committee for the
purpose of a resolution

II. Developments related to


Transfer Pricing
The Union Budget in May 2014
announced significant changes in
the Transfer Pricing regulations,
incorporating suggestions to ensure
certainty and predictability like rollback of APA and introduction of
globally aligned statistical methods
like Interquartile range method
to compute Arms length pricing.
NASSCOM has been working on
transfer pricing issues for some time,
and we welcome the announcement
and await the detailed guidelines.

III. SEZs operations and


revival plans
The Union Budget in May 2014, in
response to several representations
both at the Centre and State,
clarified administrative procedure
for SEZ refunds, allowing for upfront
exemptions. NASSCOM has also
submitted feedback on operational
issues and need to address them
at the earliest, and also made
suggestions for changes in the
SEZ Act for incorporation in the
SEZ revival plans. One of the key
suggestions made was to allow

V. Digital Economy and Policy


Implications
To encourage growth of eCommerce,
taxation on digital transactions
should be in the least, at par with
the physical world, if not reduced to
facilitate adoption and migration to
technology enabled platforms.

a. Online payments
Continuing our efforts in streamlining the
online payment environment to ensure
that recurring payments for subscription
to internet enabled based products and
services are possible in a manner that
is acceptable and the norm around the
world, we have made representations
to the RBI on the issue. The RBI has
acknowledged the issue and we await
a simplified single authentication, which
will allow easy recurring payments with
adequate safeguards.
b.
Regulations
for
Cloud
Communication Service Providers
and issues related to eCommerce
As cloud enabled services grow in India,
NASSCOM has been interacting with
the government on how regulations
should be adapted, modified or clarified
to prevent operational hassles.
In continuation of this, a guidance
paper was made available to Cloud
Communication Service Providers,
highlighting essential contract terms
to ensure compliance with Telecom
Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI)
regulations. The contents were
prepared in discussion with the
regulators taking care of their concerns
and also drawing from best practices
from other sectors. The Industry
has been referring to it, as they draft
client contracts.

VI. Companies Act


NASSCOM has been sharing industry
feedback related to the various
provisions of the Companies Act
that add to the compliance burden,
and need simplifications. NASSCOM

Foundation is taking lead in the area of


Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)
and associated guidelines and rules.
Along with industry, we are working
closely with the Ministry of Corporate
Affairs (MCA) in suggesting changes
and processes for a smooth adoption
of the CSR mandate in the IT sector.

VII. Start-up and Software


Product Policy Initiative
Specific issues specific to technology
start-ups have been taken up across
ministries for resolution. This includes
working with Ministry of Finance, DeitY,
Ministry of Micro, Small & Medium
Enterprises (MSME), MCA, Ministry of
Commerce etc.
The
categories
under
which
recommendations are being made
encompass
taxation,
regulatory
compliance, investor issues and
proposal for a comprehensive
framework for incentives and support.

State IT Policies
NASSCOM has been actively engaged
in developing and refining the IT policy
of several states. We have been
engaged with the state governments
of Karnataka, Rajasthan, Maharashtra,
Chhattisgarh, Haryana, Tamil Nadu,
Andhra Pradesh and Gujarat on policy
issues and have made suggestions on
the various policy frameworks.
The suggestions made by NASSCOM
are based on comparative study of
the state IT policies and areas where
industry requires support, identified
based on consultations with members
and expert opinions.

Global Trade Development


NASSCOM worked extensively across
various markets on policy issues and
working on removing hurdles that
industry faces in the emerging markets.

During 2014, NASSCOM adopted


twin pronged approach to focus on
developed and emerging markets,
safeguarding and promoting interests
of the Indian IT-BPM industry in these
regions, exploring new opportunities,
addressing policy challenges and
attempting to reduce the impact of
the protectionist measures.
To achieve the above, NASSCOM
worked extensively across various
markets on policy issues especially
related with mobility of skilled
resources and visa challenges in
developed markets and working on
removing hurdles that industry faces
in the emerging markets. Endeavour
was to leverage the Government
of Indias (GOIs) bilateral and
multi-lateral engagements, forums
and dialogues to make headway in
these regions and alter any negative
perceptions that exist about India
and the Indian IT industry.

research by speaking to IT Services
industry
leaders
and
global
customers. It recommended that the
sector shift focus from cost arbitrage
to high business impact through
a value continuum framework. A
framework was developed to capture
the journey of the IT services industry
through five phases lower costs,
operational excellence, technology
redesign, business productivity and
business innovation.

to become a business partner to


global customers. Transformational
IT
case
studies,
representing
different geographies and verticals,
were packaged to reinforce this
value continuum.
Later in the year, it was decided that
the repositioning campaign would be
broadened to cover all segments of the
IT sector. Based on these inputs, BCG
updated the report, enlarging its focus.
During the year, a sub-group of the
IT Services Council organised a
deep dive on Mobility, Social media
and Analytics and their impact on
Digital Services. The deep dive was
led by teams from NIIT Technologies,
Virtusa and NASSCOM and its
aim was to define an approach to
maximise returns for India in the area
of digital services. The teams also
discussed the business and delivery
model changes needed for the
industry to maintain leadership within
the digital services domain, define an
approach for building a workforce
to service digital technologies and
what India needed to do to build a
compelling digital services value
proposition for global customers.
A survey was additionally administered
to assess Indias readiness for
providing digital services. The subgroup consulted with the business
heads of member organisations
on these emerging trends and
made recommendations on how IT
Services players could gear up to
tap the growing service opportunity
around digital technologies. This was
packaged into an Industry Briefing

report for members in June, 2014.


Based on this first phase of work,
NASSCOM is developing a roadmap
for talent development, specially in the
area of UX Design.
Another important event hosted
by NASSCOM was the annual
Infrastructure Management Services
Summit (NIMS), which was held in
September, 2014 in Bengaluru. With
the theme of Enterprise of the future
software defined, services led, the
conference looked at some of the key
tech trends driving this market.
The focus on the conference was
on disruptive technologies and their
impact on businesses and the IT
organisation within them. Some
of the key discussions were about
accelerating the digital enterprise
and making IT infrastructure digital
ready. Speakers at the conference
talked about IT Infrastructure in the
Digital Age, the CIOs new role as an
IT Service Broker, software defined
enterprises, converged infrastructure,
BYOD, enterprise mobility and the
digital workplace.

the last few years to position India as
a software products destination and
nurture and nourish an eco-system
that is conducive to the growth and
proliferation of software product
organisations from India.
The organisations efforts to improve
the software products landscape
have centered around improving
customer access and business
connects for Indian software product
