Rank - 40 : Sun Microsystems India : Sun-set

Its been a year since Oracle acquired Sun Microsystems
but the integration of the two entities is far from over, at least in India.
While the merger has been completed in the US and some other countries, the road
to integration has been anything but smooth in India. Industry insiders point
out that the unresolved legal and taxation issues have complicated the matter
for Oracle India.

If that wasnt enough, the server and storage business
which contributed more than 80% to Sun Indias revenue too is in doldrums. With
the post merger scenario still shrouded in uncertainty, customers have been
leaving in droves and the competition (read HP and IBM) have only happily lapped
them all up. With the Sun market share tapering down, quite a few of its
customers have shifted loyalties to HP including Vishal Mega Mart, Unichem
Laboratories, Ispat, Victor Gaskets, ONGC, Century Textiles and Welspun. On the
developer front, the Sun JAVA ISV community, is also in a quandary over its
future since JAVA was always an open standard and not an OS licensed product.
