Yahoo has trimmed some staff in India as part of an exercise to improve the quality of its research and development (R&amp;D) team in the country. The company has removed less than 5 percent of staff after they failed in a performance appraisal, according to an informed source. Yahoo employs 1,500 staff in India in R&amp;D and its sales and marketing operations.However, the company continues to hire more staff in India. While declining to confirm the staff cuts, a spokeswoman at Yahoo said Thursday that the company has doubled staff in India each year, and is likely to do so this year as well. &quot;We continue to build a high performance culture in India,&quot; she said.IBM&#160;and Indian outsourcer Tata Consultancy Services have also&#160;trimmed under-performing staff in India, although both have said that the staff cuts are routine annual exercises to weed out under-performing staff. As staff costs in India increase because of shortage and competition, companies may be getting a lot tighter on quality, according to some analysts.Yahoo announced in January&#160;plans to let go about 1,000 of its global staff&#160;in February.
