    Indian IT companies logging in high growth

    Growth is back

    Dilip Maitra

    Software engineers in India, with at least two to three years of experience, are in great demand, thanks to the revival in the fortunes of the Indian IT industry.Rising from the ripple effect of the global recession from 2008 till the middle of 2010 that adversely impacted hiring of engineers, Indian IT companies are now ona massive hiring spree. Salaries too are skyrocketing as companies are vying with each other to hire and retain the best brains.

    Just sample the following: at the time of its recent announcement of quarter 3 (Q3) result, the countrys largest IT firm TCS said it will hire 62,000 to 65,000 peoplein the financial year 2010-11 as against the companys earlier projection of 50,000 gross additions during the year. With this, TCS headcount will be more than

    200,000 at the end of March 2011, said TCS Vice-President and Global Head Human Resources Ajoy Mukherjee at the recent result announcement press meetin Mumbai.

    While better pricing realization and cost containment has helped, Indian IT companies have also shown good volume growth. Infosys volume growth in the lastfive quarters was 5 per cent and that of TCS was 6.5 per cent. Another important indicator of market improvement is that the discretionary spends by the IT clientsare coming back after the recession when they almost came to a standstill.

    While the conventional cost arbitrage opportunities will continue to drive volume growth for IT vendors, discretionary expenditures on consulting, enterprisesolutions, package implementations, etc, are coming back.

    Conventional revenue streams like application development and maintenance (ADM) which used to account for 80 to 90 per cent of the revenue for Indian ITcompanies are now down to around 50 per cent.To cater to growing demand Indian companies need to tackle the supply side as well. Large scale recruitments are in vogue, utilization rates of billable peoplehave risen, and companies are spending more money in training and skill development.

    The importance of Personality Development

    Methods of achieving better Personality Development

    Personality Development has many benefits that are the outcome of a strong personality development procedure. In fact, it is true that there are only benefits andno disadvantages to personality development.The benefits of personality development are plenty. It brings with it a lot of new, fresh approaches; it brings with it a lot of scope for varied interests, which in turn,lead to healthy brain-storming and discussions at work places, rather than unpleasant politics.The list below exhibits the benefits of personality development for simple and quick reading and comprehension:

    ?One of the key benefits of Personality development is the change it brings about in the overall demeanor of a person. He/she becomes more vibrant, andundergoes a sharpening of the personality for the better.?Another key benefit is the confidence and morale that automatically gets a boost and a push with good personality development.?Another advantage of

    personality development is the opportunity to be able to form a healthy rapport with anybody of any age bracket.

    ?Try to always be polite and bring a smile to your face. It is essential to always react according to the situation. Being polite can highly work in your favor,whether you are at the work place at home, or at a social event.?Bring about a positive attitude towards life. Being positive in life can always work in your favor. Block out the negatives in order to scale the heights of success.

    Enjoy the work you do. This is a crucial part of personality development. If you are not having fun while carrying out office or household work, it will not makeyou feel happy. Ultimately if you are not happy, it wont assist in personality development. Methods of achieving better Personality Development

    The aim of our Employees First, Customers Second philosophy is to empower you to bring about a difference in the functioning of theorganization both in the business and beyond work. We firmly believe that our Employees First vision will be realized only when everyHCLite becomes a transformer and that is why we formed the Employee First Councils.

    Employee First Council (EFC) is a participative and democratic forum developed for HCLites and run by HCLites. The EFCs give anopportunity to a diverse group of individuals to come together and work towards a common cause that they are passionate about.

    There are six Employee First Councils at HCL.

    EFCs organize close to 5,000 distinctive, interesting, dazzling, intellectually stimulating, athletic, vigorous and philanthropic events,with many of these getting rave reviews and close media attention.

    There are six Employee First Councils at HCL:

    Grey Cells, Ambassador Council, Sports Council, Talent Council, Community Service Council, Wellness Council

    Apart from these councils, there is the Women First Council, specially dedicated to women HCLitesWatch this space for more aboutthe exciting events these Councils organize, and the HCLites who make them what they are!Back
