Industry body NASSCOM is currently preparing a strategy position paper outlining what the country as a whole has to do to secure a higher percentange of the global IT and ITeS pie as well as increasing its share in the country's GDP.

The paper, outlining NASSCOM's vision, would be released before February, NASSCOM Chairman S Ramadorai said here.
It would dwell on a set of initiatives needed to scale up the export potential of IT industry and also expand the domestic market, particularly in the fields of education, training, talent-building, market-access and infrastructure, among others.
"(In the strategic paper) we are looking at both IT and BPO together; not one or the other," Ramadorai, also CEO and managing director of TCS, said.

The NASSCOM-McKinsey study released in December 1999 projected India's software exports at US $50 billion and domestic market-size of US $37 billion by 2008.
The paper would spell out steps needed to go beyond that and take the industry to a certain percentage of global market and also percentage of GDP, he said
