It raises important issues of Indian education system...it throws light on issues pertinent to human capital perspective and returns of human capital in IT sector in India...from the point of view of policymakers and IT companies, the study holds great importance...the HR policy makers may be forced to take a look at existing employment hours so as to increase the productivity at the workplace...the study is relevant and throws light on areas not dealt before. -- Paradigm, Vol 18
