India's economy has boomed at around 9 percent growth in each of the last three years, lifting millions out of poverty and creating a generation of affluent and ambitious young Indians. So Indians in abroad are seeing greater opportunities at home, where there are more job openings, the cost of living is lower and modern amenities such as shopping malls and condominiums offer them a comfortable life .How should India tap the reverse brain drain?

Route to entrepreneurship

idea posted by Veena Gupta Analyst, Blackstone Group

Indian government and the corporate industry should  motivate and help Indians returning from other country to start their own enterprise. By doing this we can tap the people returning to India and can also reduce unemployment. When they start their own enterprise they become more responsible and help in the development of the economy.

Increase in R & D feilds

idea posted by James Masih Product/Brand Manager, FedEx

NRIs have quiet a good experience with the updated technologies abroad. I think every NRI who is returning back should be given proper facilities and work environment where he can work comfortably and can do goo researches. In this way, they can provide good developement in every field they are working and there is a possibility of our being overtaking countries like USA in due course of time...

Create an apt atmosphere for our scientists

idea posted by Bindu Narayan Product Development Manager, Care Biomedicals

India should take this opportunity to tap the talent by providing opportunities and incentives to the knowledge pool, especially in the sciences.  We must try and attract the best and brightest of our scientists abroad to return home and participate in the adventure of building a knowledge-based economy.

reverse brain drain in its true sense

idea posted by Bharath reddy Software Developer, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS)

Indians working abroad might be coming back to India. But I dont see it happening because they see better opportunities or good lifestyle. Its only because they cant afford to stay where they are, jobless. For example a professional who lost job in the US might consider opportunities in Europe, Singapore or Australia before heading home. That is the truly how it works. Considering the facts, India is far behind in providing such opportunities and lifestyle. While there is a welcome change in that area, I'd say there has to be a greater emphasis on this aspect from Govt Of India, NASSCOM, and the industry itself.

On the other hand, India always had this problem of brain drain, some in terms of folks pursuing higher education and most in terms of job opportunities. The only feasible, practical solution to stop this is to provide such education and such oportunities here in India. Hope we see this happening some day soon.

I dont think india seems to be in prospect manner.But india should change its strategy plan against the IT industries.

Reverse brain drain should stimulate enterpreunership

idea posted by Krish Business analyst

Although many of the NRIs may be returning out of compulsions such as unemployment or reduced growth potential abroad, most of them are enterprising & well educated in disciplines such as business management. I feel the government as well as Indian corporate world can trigger substantial employment opportunities by encouraging & facilitating the returnees to set up new ventures on their own instead of just grabbing locally available well paid jobs.

I agree. Its good money these NRIs can bring in. And to what better good could it serve than providing more opportunities to natives by investing in new business ventures, research and social entrepreneurship. But all this needs to be supported by govt and NGOS. Its difficult but its possible.

amenities and resource mobilisation

idea posted by kawaljit kaur pgdbm student , Mount Carmel Institute of Management

a prespective entrepreneur, when enters india ,one thing that person looks forward to,is  new possible avenues to invest in and only way to achieve this is balanced growth between the regions where ,one can establish itself but ,over period of time govt have centralised the financial and human development resources which is to be distributed evenly between the location hence to encourage investment in areas that  are still left untapped .this will benefit the economy in both way,one in providing local employment and leverage the load of immigration that is ,so far has been beared by few urban city .moreover ,they should be rewarded(in form of tax  rebates or other concessions )  for pioneering.

Create opportunities for the best talent.

idea posted by Leena Pawar Tech Architect, IT Infotech


 Many Indians who return from abroad are well talented, skilled and experienced. So by creating opportunities for the best talent and provide them what they want will make them to be in India and help in the growth of the economy. Best talent should be tapped especially in the field of IT because India is undergoing boom in the field of IT.

Difficult work is already done .....

idea posted by Akshay Kaushik B.Tech/B.E. student, Lingaya's Institute of management & techonology

As everyone knows that true winner is the one who can make best out of difficult situations(As it is known that kites rise against the wind & not with the wind).India has really shown what it is capable of by being a shining light in this dark hour.In the process it has done most difficult job of removing misconceptions about India as an inefficient state and in turn has initiated humungus task of reversing the trend of conventional brain drain . Now it is time to welcome controlled but not indiscriminate reverse brain drain with both hands and provide ample space and enough oppurtunities for  these people with superior expertise so that they dont trample the opportunities of the native indians under their feet and instead creating job opportunities that will not only bring nris but also the americans qeuing  to get work visas to India.What a sight and proud moment its going to be for every Indian..........
