RBI-Survey on Computer Software & Information Technology Enabled Services Exports: 2014-15 Data Release
December, 09th 2015

The Reserve Bank of India today released, on its website, the data related to the 2014-15 round of the ‘Survey on Computer Software and Information Technology Enabled Services Exports’. 1 The survey collects dimensions of the export of software services as per the activity, type of services (on-site/off-site) and country of destination along with the four modes of supply. For the 2014-15 survey round, nearly 7,000 IT companies were contacted of which 1,095 companies, including most of the large companies, responded. The responding companies accounted for around 77 per cent of the total software exports during the year. Exports of the remaining companies (mostly small) were estimated using the related distribution patterns after categorising them in four groups, viz., IT services, BPO services, engineering services and software product development. The survey schedule is enclosed in the Annex.

Main Findings:

  • Software and ITES/BPO services exports: India’s total export of computer services and ITES/BPO services (excluding commercial presence) during 2014-15 is estimated at ₹ 5,014.0 billion (US$ 82.0 billion), registering 14.8 per cent growth in US $ terms over the previous year. Exports of ‘computer services’ and ‘ITES/BPO services’ contributed 72.0 per cent and 28.0 per cent, respectively, of the total software services exports. Public limited companies accounted for 55.6 per cent share of the total software services exports during 2014-15 (Tables 12 & 3).

  • Country/Currency Distribution: USA & Canada continued as the major destination and accounted for nearly 60 per cent in total export of software services during 2014-15. Europe had nearly 25 per cent share, of which UK accounted for almost half. US Dollar was the invoice currency for around three-fourths of the software exports followed by Pound Sterling and Euro (Tables 4 & 5).

  • On-site/Off-site/Modes of Supply: As in the previous year, off-site mode accounted for 80 per cent of the software export in 2014-15 while on-site mode accounted for the remaining 20 per cent. While export of software services through both Mode-1 (cross-border supply) and Mode-3 (commercial presence) increased, the share of Mode-3 increased marginally in 2014-15 and the share of Mode-1 moderated (Tables 6 & 7).

  • Software exports by Foreign Affiliates of Indian Companies: Software exports by foreign affiliates stood at ₹ 841.7 billion (US$ 13.8 billion) in 2014-15 and total export of software services by India, including the services delivered by foreign affiliates established abroad, stood at ₹ 5,855.7 billion (US$ 95.8 billion). USA had the major share in total software business by foreign affiliates followed by UK (Tables 78 & 9).

An article analysing the results of the Survey on Computer Software & Information Technology Enabled Services Exports for 2014-15 is being published in the January 2016 issue of the RBI Bulletin.
