The Reserve Bank of India has launched the 2016-17 round of its Survey on Computer Software and Information Technology Enabled Services (ITES) Exports.

The survey, conducted since 2002-03, collects data on various aspects of computer services exports as well as exports of information technology enabled services (ITES) and business process outsourcing (BPO). The survey results are released in the public domain, besides being used for compilation of balance of payments (BoP) statistics and other uses.

The survey schedule for the 2016-17 round is required to be filled by software and ITES/BPO exporting companies. The soft form of this survey schedule (both in Hindi and English - one of which can be used) with in-built validation checks are available on the RBI’s website under the head ‘Forms’ (available under the ‘More Links’ at the bottom of the home page) and sub-head ‘Survey’, which can be duly filled in, validated and emailed by August 28, 2017.
