Gurgaon contributes a major share of the exports

PTI | November 8, 2012



Information Technology exports from Haryana grew by 8-10 per cent at Rs 25,000 crore in 2011-12, with Gurgaon contributing a major share of the exports.

Stating this, an official spokesman said Gurgaon has emerged as an IT hub and more than 400 IT and IT enabled services (ITES) companies are operating in the district.

Renowned IT companies like Hughes Software, Tata Consultancy service, HCL, Microsoft, IBM, Siemens etc have their unit's location at Gurgaon, he said.

He said the IT policy framed by Government of Haryana was likely to give further fillip to this industry with the creation of more employment opportunities.

The major incentives given to these units include relaxation in floor area ratio, rebate on registration, transfer of properties charges, exemption under Haryana Shops and Commercial Establishment Act.
