NEW DELHI: The Indian software industry lost about two billion dollars of revenue this year due to use of pirated softwares, a study has said.
A study by the Business Software Alliance (BSA), an international association representing the global software industry, showed that though computer software piracy rates in India declined, the country still registered losses to the tune of 2 billion dollars in 2007 in monetary terms, compared to 1.28 billion dollar in 2006.
Piracy of software on personal computers (PC) in India has come down to 69 percentage points for 2007, toeing the global trend in which piracy rates dropped in most countries, the study said.
