Abstract : Revival of China's software industry has quickened in recent months with revenues, profits and recruitment growing faster, according to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.

BEIJING, May 31 (Xinhua) -- Revival of China's software industry has quickened in recent months with revenues, profits and recruitment growing faster, according to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.

Software companies reaped 2.08 trillion yuan (about 293 billion U.S. dollars) in revenues from January to April, down 0.1 percent year on year, the latest figures showed.

Profits fell 2.3 percent year on year to 239.8 billion yuan, compared with a 13.1-percent decrease in the first quarter, showing a gradual recovery in the sector that has been hurt by the novel coronavirus epidemic.

The software industry employed 6.59 million people during the first four months, up 0.2 percent from a year earlier. Enditem
