    The name of the company was initially Data Conversion Inc in 1972. X and his wife started this experiment in their house, naming one room as ‘US’ and the other as ‘India’. In one room, they wrote instructions to convert data from paper documents to computers. In another room, a group of MIT students typed out the data into a Flexowriter machine that spat out paper tape, which was then a very labor intensive and multi-step data conversion process. A ground rule was that there would be no conversation only written notes, because at that time phone connections between US and India were still spotty.

    The husband-wife duo who started operations from the third floor of their apartment in US, began with 20 people in back office operations in Pune (now have grown to over 14000 employees worldwide). In the Pune office, employees typed out court documents for LexisNexis, movie summaries for American Film Institute and catalogs for American Mathematical Society. Each week boxes of paper tapes were flown to US for processing through readers and conversion into magnetic tapes that was fed into computers. This experiment has mushroomed into a business empire and a global phenomenon that is fuelling productivity.
