India has many reasons to feel proud about the success of its Software Industry. During the post liberalization era, Govt. policies have acted as a catalyst and facilitated the growth of IT exports.

The software Industry has attained global recognition primarily because of the timing of the policies and simplistic procedures laid-down by the Govt. when they were needed. The Industry also has responded very well to the changes in the policy.

The right partnership between the Govt. & Industry has facilitated this success. Establishment of the Software Technology Park Scheme in 1991 has been a step in the right direction, at the right time.

India has earned itself a reputation of an IT superpower. Software Technology parks of India have played a seminal role in accomplishing this status.

Today, STPIs all over the country are synonymous with excellent Infrastructure and Statutory support aimed at furthering growth of Information Technology in the country.

STPI Noida is one of the key centers in India, acting as a key contributor to NCR emerging as an IT Destination and as the nodal center for other software technology parks in north and central India

in all there are 41 software parks in India
