The correct option is D Export of hardwares and softwares
D. Exports of Hardware and software.

Indian software exports are huge – roughly US75bnin2014/15(andc.US100bn if BPO services are included) – and continuously registering double-digit annual growth. The location of production has changed. In the early 1990s, 75% of work took place on-site, 25% in India. By 2013/14, it was said that 20% of work took place on-site, 80% in India. This means that net foreign exchange earnings will have risen as a proportion of gross since offshore work requires much less foreign exchange outflow than on-site working.

Middle East countries remain the top destination of export for Computer Hardware during the year 2011-12. Personal Computer has emerged to be the top item of export during the year 2011-12.
