IBM and Accenture have about 7% and 4% of the market respectively, which means there are six or seven multinational companies that have a higher percentage of the market than India has as an entire country.

Infosys has seen a tremendous amount of growth in recent years. They plan to add 14,000 to 15,000 MBAs, and 3000 software engineers within the next five years.
