do you mean half a percent of the working population??
or
Half the working population??
Less than 10 % of Indians are working in the IT sector FYI.

I thought I was clear. Half a percent of the working population. Just a quick math calculation on approximately 500 million to 600 million working age adults. Just a rough estimate.
My wife is Indian and is back there learning IT right now. I was just curious where the 4 million outsourcings' number came from. I thought it might be higher, but wasn't surprised it was that low - if accurate. Not that 4 million is a low number by any means - just not a significant amount of the workforce. Albeit, it might be a more substantial bit of the economy that .5%.
