Why Indian companies should sponsor Open Source projects

Our finest exports are software and IT-related. Yet we in India use very little of our own products and services. There are a number of fairly obvious reasons for it. We cannot mass-produce IT services. Hence the cost of development is the same whether it is for a foreign client or an Indian. In fact, the development costs may even be lower for foreign clients if we factor in some risks. Indian clients are new to IT and hence their requirements may be prone to greater change (and even confusion) especially at the late stages. Contract re-negotiation may be very difficult because Indian clients normally feel they are paying far too much as it is. That is why IT services are not affordable for many Indian organisations.
