Wipro has 25,000 employees in the city that provide a variety of technology-related services for companies including Honeywell and Cisco Systems. Infosys has 16,000 workers in Bangalore, with customers that include Microsoft. Both these companies and nearly all others in the city have officially given their employees the day off on Wednesday.

So we are talking just from these 3 outsourcers alone, a total of 36K employees, with 3 major customers - Honeywell, Cisco and Msft.

These 2 outsourcers alone, Wipro and Infosys- which are nowhere near the ONLY outsourcers in India- basically double the number of offshore workers Cisco maintains, if you follow the obvious conclusions that Cisco uses a significant portion of the 36K workers listed here.

My guess is Wipro and Infosys represent less than half of the offshore contractors to these companies- maybe 40%.
