India's IT sector is bracing for remarkable growth, as emerging technologies are forecasted to create a 20% increase in new job opportunities by 2025, according to FirstMeridian Business Services.
In 2024, the sector saw a 17% surge in employment, driven by digital transformation and a heightened demand for niche tech roles. FirstMeridian CEO Sunil Nehra emphasized the ongoing ascent of profiles such as AI, ML, and cybersecurity specialists.
With a projected significant expansion by 2030, the Gen-AI and gig economy sectors are expected to be key contributors, addressing the evolving needs through flexible talent solutions. However, talent shortages and global economic instabilities remain challenges.
