Tell them that you don't make important business decisions over the phone and tell them if the want to come over and meet you in your office you would be glad to speak with them. Assign one of your lowest employees to the meeting, exclusively. After the return to India, if they contact you again tell them how much your subordinate loved what they had to offer and tell them you would love to schedule a meeting with hire ups. Repeat until they stop calling.

So, they're looking for a project requirement document of any size. Why dont you take them up on the offer...make up a fictional requirement document and let them fret over how much to charge for it. It would be intersting to see how much they charge to generate a software package that solves global warming.
