Uncertainty in India's export-focused software sector will continue for the next four to six quarters due to deepening global economic turmoil, the sector's lobby group said.
"At this point in time, we're getting mixed signals," Som Mittal, president of the National Association of Software and Service Companies (Nasscom), told reporters on the sidelines of a technology conference.
"Very clearly, the decision-making is slow at this time."
In September, Nasscom said it would revise its growth projection for the sector, which was forecast to expand 21-24 per cent to about $50 billion in the year to March 2009

Uncertainty will remain in Indian economy, says RBI chief
The outlook for the Indian economy in the coming months remains uncertain but the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) will take appropriate Subbarao action when needed, its chief said on Thursday.
"The situation way forward is quite uncertain. The RBI will take appropriate action as and when required," Subbarao told reporters after a meeting of the bank's governing board.
"The RBI will continue to closely monitor the developments in the global and domestic financial markets and will take swift and effective action as appropriate."
He also said the central bank would endeavour to minimise the stress on various sectors of the economy which have been hurt by the global economic crisis.
On Saturday, the bank aggressively cut its main rates to support slowing.
