Still single?
Anandita Gupta

I have been talking to a lot of people in the software industry here in Austin, Texas, and have learnt a great deal more than I could ever imagine about outsourcing to India. Someone used the term ‘Outsourcing King’ when referring to India’s stranglehold on the BPO growth.
