Corruption

India is undoubtedly a corrupt country - Very corrupt as a matter of fact.

However, are Indians inherently oriented towards corruption (both giving and receiving bribes) or is largely situational ?

Imagine, one day, if a manager at a top IT company started accepting bribes in return for promoting software engineers ? Would that prove the first option ?

I think the second is responsible for the first to become part of the culture as well.
But lets be clear the holier than thou americans are not perfect either and it exists in subtle forms in the corporate and political world. But because the policy of implementation is strong and because it is uncommon at lower level and hence becomes a matter of shame and also does not bring an unwanted habit into the system.
The key to your answer is habit.
