This is a common stereotyping to assume. The quality of work you get from outsourcing is directly proportional to the amount you spend.
If you need talented people you have to spend more money. It's as simple as that.

i'd go even more broad:
its not just about money, its also about time. You can get good returns on junior team members but you need to put in the time to coach/teach/guide/manage just like anything else.
more money just means that you're paying someone else to put in the time. Which is cool, different models work in different scenarios.
These large Indian outsourcing companies are nothing but a big scam that has cost us millions in productivity, not to mention stress and frustration for not being able to get things done.
Once you're forced to spend more than x amount to secure talented workers, surely you might as well employ domestic programmers/DBAs/whatever?
