Reverse Brain drain to India: The reason behind it?

Current economy slowdown is one of the causes of reverse brain drain. However US/EUROPEAN economy is not going to provide accelerated growth rate for next decade or so. On the other hand Asia-Pacific region is growing at very good rate even at the time of recession and it is predicted that these economy will grow at faster rate particularly India & China in the next decade or so. Apart from this due to low growth in US/EUROPEAN region lot of companies are shifting their mode of growth to reverse innovation where product will be developed at developing countries like India & China and then the same innovation will be transferred to US/EUROPEAN region with little modification. It is just opposite of globalization where US/EUROPEN use to develop products at their home and then after little modification transfer it to developing market like India & China. This new trend of reverse innovation will make transfer of R&D & Manufacturing base from US/EUROPEN region to Asia-pacific region like India & China and to shift global economy from US/EUROPEAN region to ASIA-PACIFIC region with accelerated growth of brain drain. 

US and other countries print dollars without bothering buys up all Indian companies irrespective of their sizes in the next 10 years and most of Indian companies will have 74% FDI and now tell me who will call the shots. We lack long term planning.

But these world leaders in business plan, plot and execute their moves on a long term strategy along with their political parties and governments. Where is such a vision or plan in India to become global leaders? What is our role in UN, World Bank, Internation affairs, influence etc.

The recent reverse Brain drain phenomenon is a temporary passe'. The moment the world economy picks up these NRIs would jump to greener pasture elsewhere if not the US. The only long lasting solution is to make it mandatory for all NRIs to support and materialise at least one project with a positive impact on our economy during their lifetime whereever they be.The project development should be semi govt ( govt - to provide legality) and the financial aspect should be through public equity.

The organizations are not compromising on the talent and are ready to pay as much as 80% of the salaries the top level professionals are getting abroad. Adding to the advantage is the fact that last year has seen the rupee strengthening in value against the US dollar. The rising salary, the extra allowances and perks, the complete compensation packages are playing a major role in bringing back the professionals to India.

india is the hub.

i know of many successful goras now settled in uttaranchal , himachal etc..

in quest of truth ..

Apart from recession, the reasons behind the brain gain (or reverse brain drain) could be both push and pull factors. Push factors might be recession itself, inconvenience of being an NRI, inability to adjust in the foreign environment, etc. Pull factors are better opportunities available in India, rising salaries, better infrastructure at least in gated communities, and improving telecommunications and other public utility services at least in metros. When the combined effect of the pull and push factors operates in favor of India it results in brain gain as is happening now albeit in a small way.

Guys they are simply back because it takes recession to expose these incompetent and false experience guys especially from Andhra Pradesh. Like they say when the tide goes out you know whose being swimming naked.

Ties to Family, Friends and Friendships are BIGGER factors that are reversing BRAINS ... in addition to non-acceptance of COMPLETE / TOTAL value of one's worth!

The current job trends are demanding for newer roles. Few years back the jobs were not demanding in dynamic skills as it is today.

Outsourcing has contributed to move jobs of lesser skilled role to offshore. Things which needs a production kind of role and work with not much thinking kind of jobs. Businesses have been deriving benefits out of this. The non core process has been outsourced and this has led to newer job roles.

The newer job roles requires quite a bit of thinking to apply. 

During the recession, India and China were the least effected countries and thus the job losses were not so much as it was in other countries. In India, recruiting was still going on which stopped in almost majority of the foreign countries. This was the main reason and beginning for reverse brain drain in India. Later, the strengthening of the rupee value in comparison to dollar value became another factor for the reverse brain drain...
