Impact Of Obama's Recent Comment On Tax Breaks
It is now clear that US president, Mr. Barack Obama, is all set to target the outsourcing industry specially software outsourcing and his recent comments on tax break policy are a clear indication towards it. But economists in India, which has a large share in the offshore IT industry, feel that Obama is not being fair with his comments and have clearly stated that the 50 billion dollar outsourcing to India industry is not dependent on USA for its existence and growth.
Obama passed the comments regarding the US outsourcing sector while addressing a rally in the state of Ohio, which a day before banned outsourcing of jobs in government including software outsourcing,[url=http://www.sport.fr/smartphones/moncler.asp]moncler pas cher[/url], through an executive order from the governor. Though the election poll of November is nearing, he stood firm and said that the benefit of tax breaks should actually pass on to organizations which create jobs in America and not to those organizations which create jobs overseas.
Though Obama did not hint at India in his comments, they have surely raised immense concern among all Indians related to the outsourcing to India industry irrespective of whether they are related to software outsourcing, accounting, legal or medical outsourcing. Why shouldn they be concerned? After all it is the biggest industry in India, and millions of people depend on it for their jobs, career and future. If the industry sees even a small change like the recent hike in H1B visa fees, it is affected by millions of dollars. Just imagine what havoc the recent Tax break policy can play on the sector.
Many people feel that with such comments, US president Barack Obama is gathering grievances against himself and the nation as a whole from Indians, just before his planned visit to India in November. Though we are still not sure how people will react to this but there are chances of some harsh reactions coming into light. Yes, there is no doubt that the Indian IT industry to a large extent owes its success and growth to the outsourced jobs from USA but then if we think of the same from a different prospective then it would be clear that USA is not outsourcing its core jobs but jobs which have very few takers over there.
In fact, USA is outsourcing drudgery jobs to India like sales jobs, accounting jobs, medical transcription jobs, software writing jobs, documentation or data entry. All these jobs are considered to be sub standard by the US citizens and have very less takers, and if there are takers they ask for a much high salary. No doubt that the outsourcing companies are benefitting by outsourcing to India but just imagine the situation where India refuses to take such jobs, who will do them?
Also by accepting these jobs India is giving a golden opportunity to these companies, they can now concentrate even better on their core business activities. The money they save by outsourcing to India can actually be used in research and development to ensure that the company is able to provide something better each time.
If we take an example of software development it would be not wrong to say USA is far ahead than other nations of the world. They have developed outstanding software development products. We Indians simply use those products to develop a business solution but the actual American brain behind the development of that particular software platform is more important.
Indian software outsourcing companies will overcome US political bashing by delivering more innovative IT solutions, which American SMEs will find hard to ignore.
