Nashik-based STPI (Software Technology Park of India)-registered units have posted 88.46 per cent growth in software export in the fiscal year 2007-08. In the current financial year too, STPI is eyeing 100 per cent rise in the software export from Nashik.

Speaking to Business Standard, Sachin V Purnale, Assistant Director, STPI, said, “IT/BPO industry in both Mumbai and Pune has reached a saturation level. As Nashik is on the equidistance from both Mumbai and Pune, many IT/BPO companies are eyeing to extend their base in Nashik. But, lack of proper road and air connectivity is the main hurdle for the growth of IT/BPO industry in Nashik.

As a result, only two BPO companies- Tricom India Ltd and Datamatics Technologies Ltd have come to Nashik during last one-and-a-half year. Nashik may emerge as the major IT/BPO destination in the country if its infrastructure is developed at the earliest.”

So far, around 20 units, including Tricom India, WNS Global Services, Datamatics Technologies Ltd, Aress Software & Education Technologies, Prothioes Engineering Services, ESDS Software, Object Edge Software, Web DreamWorks, Thinking Minds.Com, eLuminous Technologies, ESDS Software Solutions, Winjit Technology, Webminds Infotech, Gega Infotech, Kaizen Overseas, MaGaJa InfoTech, Neumann Systems Software, Net Solutions India Pvt.Ltd, Illusion Graphix, Sai Softwares, Unnosource Corporation have been registered with the STPI, for the software export.
