I would like to hear some expert opinion too.

My understanding is that if the work is done overseas, it is not subject to US
taxes and is either expensed or capitalized in the buying company just like a
contract to a US company.

I would also like to know ... What if the Indian company is a wholly owned
subsidiary of the US company?

Other questions:
What if the Indian company has an office in the US?
What if part of the work is done in the US?
