 They
may be some of the most sought after techies in the US, but the Big Apple does
not seem to hold its charm for IITians anymore. A study reveals the number of
IITians opting to move to the US after graduation is steadily coming down. In
the last five years, nearly 84% preferred to stay back and pursue a career in
India.

 The trend began from the
class of 2002. Of the IITians who graduated in 2002 and later (including the
class of 2008), only 16% went abroad. In comparison, between 1964 and 2001, 35%
IIT graduates preferred to fly to the US.

 Interestingly, 59% of IIT
graduates before 2001 believed that the US and other developed countries
provided better opportunities. However, in the last five years the mindset has
undergone a change. Now, nearly 49% believe India is where the action lies.
