End Of India's IT Services Success Story? Not yet.

For years, analysts, academics and researchers have been predicting the “End” of India's IT Services sector.
Fred Giron's Blog on Forrester.com (Is This The End Of India's IT Services Success Story?) is sure to generate some debate among those in the IT services sector but nothing more than that.
While one can debate if Innovation by Indian IT players is the silver bullet, the rate of growth of the sector has certainly tapered off in recent years. The rate of growth is nowhere near that we saw 5 or 6 years ago.  The reason for slowdown may be more due to sheer size of organizations and the linear nature of business model more than any other factor.
Is "innovation" the silver bullet? I guess only time will tell.
