I'm not certain that this is big news as Google has been in India for a while now, but I just saw this article...and it seems Google's activities in India will be increasing.

article [channelnewsasia.com]

Leading Internet search engine Google Inc. said it was planning a big expansion of its India operations which are run from the two southern cities of Hyderabad and Bangalore.
...
Brin said Google plans to make its services available in more than a 100 different languages including a number of regional Indian languages.

No doubts about it. India undoubtly is among the IT superpowers of the world. With its huge economy and enormous market this is not the country to be ignored.

I was reading an article with refrence to the Kerry Speech on Democratic party's Outsourcing policy. Here are a few reasons of why Google is in INDIA.

1)Talent-rich country
2)Exports software to 95 countries around the world
3)Enjoys the confidence of global corporations
4)State-of-the-art technologies for total solutions
5)IT is a major thrust area for the Government of India
6)Stable government
7)One of the world's 10 fastest-growing economies
8)Significant cost saving
9)Large pool of computer literate and English speaking professionals
10)Quality standards meet the approval of the world
