Key Market Issues
An overall moderate growth in IT budgets is expected in 2012-13. Businesses are likely to remain cautious, but this is hardly going to have any negative impact on IT investments.
Investment in data centres and network integration and management remained the primary area of focus for IT spending among Indian enterprises, which reveals the importance that enterprises place on supporting their core IT systems.
Kable expects the percentage of the telecommunications budget spent on converged voice and data networks to continue to remain low due to the unavailability of advanced network infrastructure to support the services.
The most interesting change in IT deployment trends in Indian enterprises is the planned increase in spending on IT security, which clearly provides a lot of encouragement for the providers of security services in India.
Indian enterprises reveal that IT consulting is an area of relatively low importance as it constitutes the smallest proportion of the total IT budget
Key Highlights
Indian enterprises have continued to focus exclusively on their core ICT systems where, on average, respondents invested X% of their external IT budget on hardware, software and services combined.
Kable's recent survey reveals that Indian enterprises are mostly willing to spend with third parties, which amounts to almost X% of the total IT budget, thereby creating huge scope for those vendors who impress with their technology.
According to the survey, the bulk of the software budget (X%) is being spent on software licenses driven by investments in core enterprise applications such as financial management, human resources management, ePurchasing, security, CRM and business intelligence.
The survey indicates that the largest proportion (X%) of IT staff members has been resourced on IT infrastructure followed by applications (X%).
Indian enterprises place high emphasis on client computing equipment with an average budget allocation of X%, as enterprises are trying to adopt media tablets and smartphones in their businesses to create more value and business agility.
