Yes, failures are high

Yes, Failures are high,
It was a good time when the IT industry boomed in India in 80's.
First they got all excellent brainy people who were good in developing software
Then came an era that these brainy people went to the US to fetch higher position and salary and never came back
The software companies started to feel a gap and recruited medium intelligent people, thus reducing the quality to mediocre
Then even these people reached high to become managers or started to migrate to US or other countries or do higher studies.
Then even more gap fell and they recruited least intelligent people, thus leading to a total failure of quality
More over all companies will promise to do a software in 1/2nd or 1/3rd the time that takes by any other company, communicate to the team who does the software to do it in 1/2nd of the 1/2nd time and each developer will be squeezed to do work in even less time by putting more than 14 hrs in development which will yield poor quality code.
This is the fate of IT industry in India now, currently the Indian government is being pressured by some religions and cast people to implement reservation for backward classes in IT industry, if this is implemented then you will get softwares developed by morons who will point out to a window in the wall if asked about Microsoft windows.
People who want to outsource please look at these problems first, being a person from India and being in IT industry for past 12 years, i felt this extreme problem while i was asked to select a software solution from few indian companies for my organisation in US, finally i ended up choosing a good quality product from a NJ based vendor.
