PLUS: Eight million more outsourced jobs for India; Australia warns on IoT shoe risks; Equinix enters Malaysia
Microsoft has quietly announced big price rises for its software and services in India.
"Microsoft periodically assesses the impact of its local pricing for software products and online services to ensure there is reasonable alignment across regions and this change is an outcome of this assessment," the company's announcement states."Customers across India buying online services in Indian rupee will continue to find Microsoft cloud offerings highly competitive," the company insists.
The minister did not explain exactly how India will add eight million business process outsourcing jobs in such a short period of time. But India's National Association of Software and Service Companies – the nation's peak tech trade association and lobby group – recently publishedthat the nation will attract 500 more global service centers by the year 2026, with many focusing on work from the front and middle offices instead of the back office work on which the industry made its name.
