Statewide · 2026 guide
IT companies across Odisha
Mapped by region rather than ranked, with the parts of the state's industry that are genuinely strong separated from the parts that are marketing.
Last verified 3 September 2026
This guide is written for two readers. One is a business inside Odisha deciding where in the state to look. The other is a buyer outside it — in a metro, or overseas — evaluating whether Odisha is a sensible place to source engineering at all. Both questions have the same underlying answer: the state has a small number of genuinely strong firms, concentrated almost entirely in one city, with real depth in a few specific disciplines and very little in the rest. Knowing which is which saves a lot of time.

How this list was compiled
Locations were confirmed against company websites and MCA records. In Odisha this is unusually important: because a single Registrar of Companies at Kataka serves the whole state, directories that read the ROC jurisdiction as a city address label every Odisha company as Kataka-based. Four firms were misplaced this way across the lists we checked, and one company presented as a leading IT firm turned out to manufacture agarbathi and soap alongside its software work.
- Grouped by region, so you can see where the industry actually is
- Headquarters confirmed from a primary source rather than a ROC jurisdiction
- Specialisms named where a firm genuinely has one
- No paid placements and no commercial relationship with any company listed
Bhubaneswar — effectively the whole industry
The capital holds the STPI centre, Infocity, the Chandaka SEZ and the engineering colleges. If you are sourcing anything substantial in Odisha, this is where it comes from.
Luminous Infoways Pvt. Ltd.
Government systems across four states, plus IOCL, SAIL, banking and judiciary work.

Hailiot Technologies (formerly Epsum Labs)
Industrial AI and IoT for steel, power, mining and logistics. Note the rebrand: older listings use the Epsum Labs name.
Kataka
Thirty kilometres from the capital and commercially much older, but with a small IT sector. Two firms verified. Most companies advertised as Kataka-based are in fact in Bhubaneswar — see the methodology above.
Addsoft Technologies Limited
Software, portals, web hosting, embedded technology and kiosk systems.
Softree Technology Pvt. Ltd.
Power Platform, AI-driven applications, data engineering, React and Next.js.
The rest of the state
STPI operates sub-centres at Berhampur, Rourkela, Balasore, Koraput and Jajpur, and NIT Rourkela produces engineers every year. What we could not do is verify software companies in those towns at a scale worth listing beside the firms above. This section is deliberately empty rather than padded — if you know of a firm that belongs here, tell us and we will check it.
Delivery centres of firms headquartered elsewhere
Large local employers, but not Odisha companies and generally not engageable as a regional supplier.
Infosys
Around ten acres at Infocity; among the earliest large IT campuses in the state.
Tata Consultancy Services
Delivery centre in the Chandaka belt.
Capgemini
Delivery centre within the Infocity cluster.
What Odisha is genuinely good at
Three things, and they are narrower and more real than the general "software services" pitch.
Public-sector delivery. This is the state's deepest capability by a distance. Two firms have spent two decades building government systems, one of them across four states, and that work has particular disciplines — procurement compliance, audit trails, decade-long support obligations — that commercial software houses often underestimate.
Supply chain and EDI integration. A narrow field with few credible providers anywhere in eastern India, and one Odisha firm has nearly three decades in it.
Geospatial and engineering data. GIS, CAD and engineering design, again with real longevity behind it.
Outside those, the state offers competent general software development at lower cost than a metro. That is a genuine proposition, but it is a cost-and-continuity argument rather than a capability one, and it is worth being clear-eyed about which you are buying.
If you are buying from outside Odisha
The cost gap is real but should not be the deciding factor. Rates are meaningfully below Bengaluru, Pune or Hyderabad. What actually determines whether the engagement works is scope discipline and staff continuity, and those vary by firm rather than by state.
Ask who is on the team and whether they stay. Attrition is the standing risk in any offshore arrangement. Smaller regional firms often do better on continuity than large metro suppliers, which is a genuine argument in Odisha's favour — but ask rather than assume.
Check the certifications properly. Several Odisha firms hold CMMI appraisals at Level 3 and Level 5. Ask for the certificate and read the scope: which legal entity, which locations, which processes, and the expiry. A logo proves nothing.
Verify the address before you sign anything. Given the ROC issue described above, this is the one piece of due diligence we would insist on for Odisha specifically. It takes a minute on mca.gov.in.
Public-sector work in the state
If your interest is selling into Odisha government rather than buying, the landscape is worth understanding. OCAC — the Odisha Computer Application Centre — is the technical directorate of the state's Electronics and IT department and sits at the centre of a great deal of public IT. The state has an IT policy framework and, more recently, an AI policy and mission. Startup Odisha runs the recognition scheme that gives registered startups access to state schemes.
The firms with the strongest positions here are the ones with existing government delivery records, for the ordinary reason that public procurement weights demonstrated experience heavily. That is a high barrier for newer entrants, ourselves included, and it is worth knowing before assuming a state contract is winnable.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Odisha a sensible place to outsource software development?
For the right requirement, yes. The state has firms with two decades of history, CMMI Level 5 appraisals and headcounts in the hundreds, at costs below the major metros. It is a poor choice if you need a large bench in a narrow emerging specialism, because the depth is not there outside the three areas named above. The honest framing is that Odisha is strong in a few disciplines and adequate-and-cheaper in the rest.
Why is the "rest of the state" section empty?
Because we could not verify companies in Rourkela, Sambalpur, Berhampur or Balasore against a primary source at a scale that would justify listing them next to firms with a thousand employees. There is activity in those towns and STPI runs sub-centres in five of them. Leaving the section visible but empty is more honest than filling it with names we have not checked.
How is this different from your Odisha top-ten list?
That page ranks the firms and explains why the industry concentrated in one city. This one maps them by region and is written as much for buyers outside Odisha deciding whether to source here at all. Same companies in places, different question being answered.
What is OCAC?
The Odisha Computer Application Centre, the technical directorate of the state Electronics and IT department. It is central to a great deal of government IT in the state, and the firms with established OCAC-adjacent delivery records have a structural advantage in public procurement here.
Do Odisha firms work with international clients?
Some do. Mindfire Solutions maintains a US office; several firms are STPI-registered units, a status tied to software export activity. It is a fair question to ask any prospective supplier directly, because the answer tells you whether they are used to working across time zones and contract conventions or whether you would be their first.
