Please suggest some papers/reports on the changes in the policy with respect to patenting of computer software in India. Does it have any implications as to why the IT services companies (mostly MNCs) are mainly patenting only at the USPTO?
Why are foreign MNCs keen on doing R&D in computer software in India?
Please suggest papers that discuss Patent Policies in the Indian IT Services Industry.

Most patent investment strategies depend on the possible market returns for the investment. The U.S. is one of the main consumers of technology so it is strategically advantageous to invest in patenting in the US. The second and third are Japan and the EU making it the patent triangle.
India is a source of talent and therefore it is also strategically advantageous to do the R&D there.
Hope this helps
