While not as much as in the west, there are plently of companies that use Python in India and not all of them "do crap work outsourced to India". Here's a list http://wiki.python.org/moin/BangPypers/PythonCompaniesInIndia http://wiki.python.org/moin/BangPypers/PythonCompaniesInIndi... A local user group in Bangalore is organising the first Indian PyCon right now and we've talked to many companies (some Indian and some not) about sponsorships because they use Python.

You say, "there are plently of companies that use Python in India and not all of them "do crap work outsourced to India"." Interesting. I see Tavant (outsourcing company), servelots (looking for people with java sql tomcat -hardly indicates a Python focus), moog (nothing very python specific and seems to follow the "offshore India dev centre" model - high probability of dealing with crap work the folks in the West don't want to do), Trellisys (outsourcing) , DIQ (I can't even make out what they do. Seems like a company run by a bunch of jokers, see their blog!). Can you point out any companies working primarily with python don't do outsourcing, and have sophisticated python based products in that list? If you can't doesn't that just prove my point?

  I remember products from Tachyon (http://tachyon.in http://tachyon.in, the makers of QuillPad) using Python. Some of them are even open-source!
