IT software industry trade body Nasscom has rejected allegations made by US senators of abuse of visas by some Indian companies.
"We have not seen anything beyond allegations," Nasscom President Kiran Karnik said responding to questions at a news conference in Bangalore. "There is no real misuse."
Karnik maintained there was no scope for misuse by big IT companies as they were transparent in their functioning.
But he maintained there could be some small companies -- he stressed not Indian firms -- misusing them.
NASSCOM Chairman Lakshmi Narayanan said authorities in the US were only collecting data in this regard. He added
there was no direct accusation or allegation of misuse against Indian IT companies.
