It is funny that the STPI claims are different from the claims of individual parks.

STPI data says total exports from Kerala is 700 crores

More than 600 crores from Trivandrum and the remaining is from rest of the state

If you take the claims of parks from Individual parks, from different areas of the state, then the Total is around 1200 crores

Out of this 1000 crore is from Trivandrum Technopark and the remaining is from rest of the places.


But the important thing to notice here is, in both the cases TVM is contributing more than 80 % of the IT


Next year, it will be another boom year for TVM because of the u/c / campuses of Infy,Leela,Elxi,IBS,SunTec,TCS,US Tech etc. Also with the help of completed Thejaswini.
With the emergence of Technocity, in 2-3 years IT exports will multiply exponetially

One more interesting thing to notice is that infy will soon become the largest software firm in Kerala considering their growth. Currently city based firm US Tech with around 3200 people is enjoying the status.

It may be noted that the STPI has just finalised the export figures, whereas the Technopark authorities here had already announced the export figures as around Rs 1000 crore from the companies operating from the park alone.

According to sources in Technopark, one of the major companies in the park had bluntly told them that they had decided to fix their export figures from Kerala as Rs 12 crore whereas the original export was somewhere around Rs 50 crore.
