India’s job market is projected to grow by 9% in 2025, according to a report by foundit (formerly Monster APAC & ME). The growth is primarily driven by the Information Technology (IT), retail, telecommunications, and Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance (BFSI) sectors. The IT sector is expected to see a 15% increase in hiring, followed by retail at 12%, telecommunications at 11%, and BFSI at 10%. Emerging technologies such as edge computing, quantum applications, and cybersecurity advancements are anticipated to further shape India’s employment market. These innovations are poised to impact industries like manufacturing, healthcare, and IT, driving demand for new skill sets. The report also highlights the growing influence of retail media networks and AI-driven workforce analytics, which are expected to reshape talent needs in e-commerce, human resources, and digital services. Cities like Coimbatore and Jaipur are emerging as hiring hotspots, reflecting the decentralization of job opportunities beyond traditional metropolitan areas.
