India’s IT outsourcing firms are betting on U.S. President Barack Obama’s healthcare reform to rev up revenue growth which is slowing as the $146 billion industry’s key financial and manufacturing clients spend less on software services.
The United States is the biggest market for the outsourcing industry, which is dominated by Tata Consultancy Services Ltd, Infosys Ltd and Wipro Ltd.
