Why The Philippines
When our clients ask why so many U.S. companies outsource to India, cost savings are rarely the full answer. India’s position as the world’s largest outsourcing destination is built on decades of investment in engineering education, enterprise delivery capabilities, and professional talent development. The result is a workforce that offers the scale, specialization, and operational maturity global companies need to grow efficiently.
01
One of the biggest reasons our clients outsource to India is access to talent that can be difficult or expensive to hire locally. India's higher education system produces more than 1.5 million engineering graduates each year, creating one of the world's largest talent pipelines across software development, data engineering, cloud infrastructure, cybersecurity, and enterprise IT. Whether companies need a single specialist or an entire development team, India offers a depth of talent few markets can match.
02
Our clients often choose India because they are not entering an emerging outsourcing market. India's workforce has spent decades supporting global enterprises through US companies. As a result, many professionals already have experience working within Agile environments, global delivery models, compliance frameworks, and international business operations, reducing onboarding time and operational risk.
03
When helping clients build teams in India, we rarely treat the country as a single talent market. Bengaluru is known for software development and startup engineering, Hyderabad for enterprise IT and cloud operations, Pune for finance and fintech talent, and Chennai for manufacturing and infrastructure services. This regional specialization allows us to align hiring strategies with the strengths of each market and source talent more effectively.
04
Many of our clients initially come to India for tech talent, then expand into finance and accounting functions as their teams grow. India has one of the largest pools of chartered accountants outside the U.S. and UK, with professionals experienced in U.S. GAAP, IFRS, QuickBooks, NetSuite, SAP, and other major ERP platforms. This depth of expertise makes India a preferred destination for accounts payable, accounts receivable, bookkeeping, payroll processing, financial reporting, and other finance operations.
05
Cost savings are often what attracts companies to India, but talent quality is what keeps them there. Our clients routinely reduce labor costs by 60-80% while gaining access to experienced professionals across technology, finance, customer support, and operations. These savings are driven by India's mature talent ecosystem, established training infrastructure, and workforce scale, not lower professional standards.
ROLES & FUNCTIONS
India’s outsourcing market extends far beyond software development. While technology remains the largest category, our clients also build teams across finance, customer support, back-office operations, and specialized technical functions. India’s combination of talent depth, delivery maturity, and cost efficiency makes it one of the most versatile outsourcing destinations in the world. Below are the functions and roles organizations most commonly hire in India.
Software development remains the most common function our clients outsource to India. India’s engineering workforce supports everything from startup product development to enterprise technology initiatives across virtually every technology stack. We regularly help companies build teams of full-stack developers, QA engineers, DevOps specialists, cloud engineers, and data professionals who integrate directly into existing product and engineering organizations.
Common roles include:
Many of our clients initially come to India for technology talent, then expand into finance and accounting functions as they scale. India’s finance workforce supports everything from accounts payable and bookkeeping to payroll processing, tax support, financial reporting, and FP&A. We regularly help companies build finance teams with experience in U.S. GAAP, QuickBooks, NetSuite, SAP, and other major ERP platforms while significantly reducing operating costs.
Common roles include:
Companies typically choose India for customer support when they need technically capable agents who can handle more complex customer interactions. We often help clients build teams across technical support, help desk, SaaS support, and customer onboarding functions. While the Philippines is often preferred for voice-heavy customer service, India excels in technical support environments where product knowledge and problem-solving skills are critical.
Common roles include:
Many of our clients outsource back-office functions to India when operational workloads become difficult to scale internally. India’s operations workforce supports document management, order processing, claims administration, data processing, and other process-driven functions where accuracy and consistency are critical. These teams help organizations improve efficiency while maintaining quality across high-volume workflows.
Beyond software development, India offers deep expertise across engineering and technical services, including CAD design, product engineering, drafting, ERP implementation, and technical documentation. Organizations in manufacturing, construction, automotive, and industrial sectors outsource these functions to access specialized talent while reducing costs and maintaining quality standards.

India produces more than 1.5 million engineering graduates annually from a world-class technical education system that includes the IITs, NITs, and hundreds of specialized engineering colleges. This creates the deepest pool of software developers, cloud engineers, data scientists, and IT professionals available anywhere. Combined with 30 years of enterprise delivery experience, mature Agile workflows, and costs 60–80% below U.S. rates, India remains the default destination for companies outsourcing software development and IT operations.
Companies outsource a broad range of functions to India, including software development, IT staff augmentation, accounting and finance operations, call center and customer support, data entry and back-office processing, and specialized engineering services. India's strength is the depth of qualified professionals in technical and financial roles — areas where other offshore destinations have shallower talent pools.
India is the global leader in finance and accounting outsourcing. The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India produces over 300,000 graduates annually, and Indian finance professionals are trained in U.S. GAAP, IFRS, and international tax frameworks. Companies outsource accounts payable, receivable, bookkeeping, payroll, financial reporting, and tax preparation to India to maintain accuracy at 60–70% lower cost than domestic finance staffing.
India offers the most competitive outsourcing rates among major offshore destinations. Software engineers cost $12–$25 per hour (vs. $75–$150+ in the U.S.), accountants and financial analysts $6–$14 per hour (vs. $30–$60), customer support agents $4–$8 per hour (vs. $18–$25), and data entry specialists $3–$6 per hour. 1840 & Company provides transparent pricing with no hidden fees or upfront costs.
India Standard Time (IST) is 10.5–13.5 hours ahead of U.S. time zones, which enables a "follow-the-sun" operating model. Development teams in India can receive end-of-day handoffs from U.S. teams and deliver completed work by the next morning. For roles requiring real-time overlap, Indian professionals routinely work shifted schedules to align with U.S. business hours — a practice deeply established across India's outsourcing industry.
Our Talent Cloud delivers vetted, interview-ready candidates within days. Most companies complete their first India hire in under two weeks. For larger team builds — such as a dedicated development squad or finance operations unit — we screen and qualify candidates in parallel to accelerate deployment without compromising vetting standards.
