With AI on the rise, developer rates decline
Bengaluru: The 2025 Accelerance Global Software Outsourcing Trends and Rates Guide showed a global decline in software developer hourly rates, with decreases ranging from 9% to 16% across many regions. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Latin America is the notable exception, where rates have remained steady. The report highlighted harder client negotiations, off-rate card deals, and cost takeout deals increasingly being offered by outsourcing partners to get projects over the line. Developer hourly rates declined across several key regions, with Eastern Europe seeing a 9% drop, and both South Asia and Southeast Asia experiencing steeper reductions of 16%. The 2025 edition of the report reviews data from 2024, comparing it to 2023 figures. It analyses median pricing across all software development roles, based on the latest survey results. This downward trend highlights a softening demand environment, driven by restrained enterprise IT budgets and increased discounting by software development firms competing for limited business in a crowded market. Peter Bendor-Samuel, founder and chairman of the Everest Group, said, "Over the last month, we are seeing much more aggressive pricing shifts than these as firms seek to capture the benefits of AI and are using AI aggressively with their internal teams, reducing the need for external support. The reason that Latin American rates are holding up is that in the new AI-driven apps world, time zone proximity is increasingly important, and we are seeing that translate into higher productivity, which in turn allows for higher or at least sustained rates. " Ray Wang, chief executive of Constellation Research, said AI has driven down the cost of software development. "In fact, we just saw a new firm, Soul of the Machine, headed by the legendary Sunil Karkera, beat out a major who bid a project with over 100 people and a 12-month timeline. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now He won a bid with less than 10 people in half the time. This is AI native scale." About 50% of Accelerance's respondents anticipate raising their rates by 1% to 5% within the next six months. This signals a departure from the double-digit growth in developer rates that defined the pandemic years. While inflation and ongoing shortages in high-demand tech roles will continue to drive price increases for some specialised skills, outsourcing providers are also offering more discounts and off-rate card deals. The integration of AI is reshaping various aspects of the software development lifecycle. Last year, Amazon CEO Andy Jassy announced a demonstration of the tangible value of the Amazon Q Developer agent for code transformation. With its help, Amazon successfully migrated tens of thousands of production applications from Java 8 or 11 to Java 17. This effort saved more than 4,500 years of manual development work across over a thousand developers and delivered performance gains amounting to $260 million in annual cost savings—underscoring the powerful impact of AI-assisted modernisation at scale. AI will play a much larger role in software development, with estimates suggesting that up to 70% to 90% of development tasks could be AI-driven by 2025 to 2027. Phil Fersht, CEO of HfS Research, said, "Our research shows 83% of US enterprises are increasing their investments in automation and AI because of the current tariffs and geopolitical instability." He said, "The market didn't twitch last Monday after Israel's attack on Iran, but I wonder what they will do on Monday, especially now the Strait of Hormuz is closed. . Trump's 90-day window on tariffs is also about to close with no real deals anywhere, and traditional 'big deals' business is very slow now in our industry."

Putting man in space is India's next giant leap: AS Kiran Kumar
Mangaluru: The former chairman of the Indian Space Research Organisation (Isro), AS Kiran Kumar, stated that the space agency aims to establish India's own space station by 2035. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now He was speaking during an event titled 'Igniting the future: Isro's legacy and beyond' organised by the Ramakrishna Mission Mangaluru and Samatha Mahila Balaga at the Ramakrishna Math hall on Sunday. "Visionaries like Vikram Sarabhai and Homi J Bhabha laid the foundation for Isro. Today, Isro plays a pivotal role in India's development. While other countries have used space activities for military purposes, India initially focused on non-military objectives like finding solutions to its problems such as weather monitoring, communication, broadcasting, and navigation. After centuries of foreign rule, providing basic necessities like shelter and housing for all citizens was a major challenge in India. In such a context, many naturally questioned whether priority should be given to the development of space technology," he explained. "By the time we reach 100 years of Independence, and when we aspire to reach the topmost, we also need to build capacity and capability. Putting man in space is one such capability. Originally, the plan was, by the 75th year of Independence, we should have put humans into orbit and brought them back. However, because of Covid-19 and other reasons, it got delayed," he said. On the Gaganyaan programme, he said probably within a year or two, we will have Indian astronauts going around the orbit. "The ambitious — to send a human to space — is India's next giant leap. The Gaganyaan programme requires large vehicles to be human-rated. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Once we achieve this mission, we will become the fourth country in the world, beyond America, Russia, and China. It is an essential requirement because the world recognises only those who demonstrate capability," he said. "Apart from launching its own satellites, India has successfully launched over 450 satellites from more than 34 countries. Through landmark missions like Chandrayaan, Mangalyaan, and Aditya, India's capabilities have gained global recognition," he noted. He called upon students to engage in space research and become scientists to contribute to the nation's growth. Swami Jitakamanandaji, secretary of Ramakrishna Math, Mangaluru, graced the event. The programme was inaugurated by Sumana Ghate, general manager, Karnataka Bank. The session was presided over by Katyayini Bhide, president of Samatha Mahila Balaga, Mangaluru. MM Nayak, former director of Isro's INSAT programme, Vijayalakshmi Rao, honorary president of Samatha Mahila Balaga, and MLC Manjunath Bhandary were present. 'Space on Wheels' exhibition A mobile scientific exhibition titled 'Space on Wheels', curated by UR Rao Satellite Centre, Bengaluru, was also held. A specially designed exhibition bus arrived from Bengaluru. The exhibition, which presented the history, achievements, and future vision of Isro, attracted more than 1,000 students from various schools and colleges.

Rupee gains 14 paise on Trump hint of no Iran action for now, equity flows
The Indian rupee edged higher to 86.58 per dollar on Friday, marking its first gain in six sessions, fueled by inflows into domestic equities. This appreciation occurred despite high crude oil prices and ongoing tensions between Israel and Iran. Market sentiment was buoyed by signals from US President Trump suggesting a delay in action against Iran. Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads The Indian rupee modestly strengthened Friday, its first advance in six days tracking inflows into domestic equities, to close at 86.58 per dollar. The rupee climbed 14 paise despite volatile oil prices and no immediate signs of a truce in the Israel-Iran strength in the rupee came after US President Donald Trump signalled to avoid any precipitate action on Iran. Rebalancing of the FTSE Russell index also led to some flows, traders said. The rupee traded between 86.54 and 86.67 to the dollar on Friday. Brent crude oil prices remained elevated at $77 per barrel, while the dollar index was at 98. A rise in crude oil prices is detrimental to inflation in India as the country is a large importer of the commodity. "Chances of rupee strengthening are very low while crude oil prices are this high. The gain we have seen today is all because of Trump's comments to postpone strikes on Iran," said Anil Bhansali, head of treasury at Finrex Treasury Reserve Bank of India was likely absent today and did not intervene, traders said."The rebalancing flows of the FTSE Russell Index did help, but dollar demand was strong too, which countered the inflow," a trader said. Foreign investors bought Indian equities worth ₹7,940.7 crore on Friday."The only positive we have seen is that FPIs are not large sellers in Indian equities," Bhansali said.
