INDUSTRY BODIES IN INDIA
IT Associations have come a long way in playing a significant role in the uplift of the Industry through the VARs and channel partners in India. The contribution made by various Associations formed across the length and breadth of the country can be ascertained from the role they have played right from the evolution of the channel ecosystem to that of keeping a tab on the conduct of the channel partners for the betterment of the Indian IT industry. More than 35,000 resellers in the emerging Metros, Tier-I, Tier-II, Tier-III and Tier-IV cities in India are today an established supply chain business across the country and deal with the hardware and software products.
Many of these resellers qualify as Value-added resellers (VARs) wherein they add features or services to the existing products, then resell them as integrated products or complete turnkey solutions. According to one estimate, Indian Information technology market has been India’s sunshine sector for quite some time now. The industry has contributed considerably to changing India's image from a slow developing economy to a global player in providing world class technology solutions and the Indian IT industry is set to touch $225 billion by 2020.
Given the gigantic landscape, IT Associations have a major role in the journey of digital transformation and in fact gone to the extent of taking a call against partners who have engaged in frivolous practices. Examples are galore that several IT associations have done a commendable job in exceeding the expectations and taking up activities which place them on a pedestal high in public eye. In an attempt to recognize their role, VARINDIA lists some of the leading Associations from across different states, who have been in the market for quite some time and delivering instant results.
