Android-based technologies growing fast in Chennai

Chennai is slowly becoming a hub in providing support for gaming and android-compatible technologies. The city is also witnessing a demand for Computer Aided Design (CAD).
“Chennai is basically a very strong market for software support, particularly in the area of medical transcription and financial system. But, now we find it is slowly becoming a preferred place for supporting android and gaming technologies,” a senior Software Technology Parks of India official said.
There has been a growth in the usage of Android devices and gaming devices all over the world. The official said that the city is catching up with the trend fast.
Besides Chennai, Coimbatore is another city which is witnessing a new trend in demand for support services on CAD software or ‘engineering design’, told the officer.
Android clearly became a common name in India with its strong foothold. With more and more manufacturers shifting to Android devices, the technology community is getting increasingly interested in the Google’s new operating system. An increasing number of developers are also getting into the Android business in India.
According to official data,  about 1,766 companies are registered with STPI in Tamil Nadu and Puducherry. Annually, they export to various countries and the latest figures shows that IT export growth compared to 2009-2010 was Rs 42,210.65 crore (2010-11) from Rs 36,765 crore registered last year (2009-2010).
Besides serving the IT industry, he said,” The city is also home to good chartered accountants. The financial services system is also very good (in Chennai ).” Referring to other cities, he said places such as Salem and Tiruchirapalli are fast catching up as preferred locations for IT firms.
“In the case of Salem, it is geographically located close to (the country’s IT capital) Bangalore. And Tiruchirapalli has some good educational institutes, where the students having good knowledge in the IT industry become immediately employable in large IT firms,” the official said.
He observed that it was because of these reasons Tamil Nadu was poised for a “decent” industry growth, with application software and engineering software as the growth drivers.
“In 2010-11 alone, exports (from Tamil Nadu and Puducherry) of application software and engineering software saw growth of 38 per cent and 26 per cent respectively,” he said.
