Skyline Global Outsourcing Update

In the latest battle over outsourcing, the Indian government has fired back at the U.S. Last week, U.S. senators unanimously passed a proposal to nearly double the fees on work visas for Indian IT companies sending workers to the U.S. Indian Trade Minister Anand Sharma has called the move “highly discriminatory” in a letter to his counterpart, U.S. Trade Representative Ron Kirk. As Bloomberg News reports, Sharma writes that “it is inexplicable to our companies to bear the cost of such a highly discriminatory law.” Sharma must know he’s not going to get a sympathetic ear from Kirk or others in the Obama Administration. Even if they were interested in helping fight this proposal (which they’re probably not), they’re not going to go up against a Senate where there’s rare consensus about the need to sock it to Indian outsourcing companies by charging them more for H-1B or L-1 visas.
