Industry Overview
The IT & BPM sector has become one of the strongest pillars of India’s economy, contributing significantly to growth, employment, and public welfare. In April 2025, the industry recorded 16% YoY growth in hiring, driven by the rising adoption of artificial intelligence, cloud modernisation, and the expansion of Global Capability Centres (GCCs). India’s AI Mission has also added momentum by securing 38,000 GPUs in September 2025, tripling its original target of 10,000 and strengthening compute power for researchers, startups, and enterprises developing advanced AI models. India’s IT industry revenue has expanded from $118 billion in FY15, including $100 billion in exports, to an estimated $283 billion in FY25, with exports contributing $224 billion. IT exports rose 12.48% in FY25, up from $199.5 billion in FY24, with STPI-registered units contributing Rs 10.64 lakh crore ($124.56 billion). Export of IT services remained the largest contributor, accounting for more than 65% of total IT exports.
India’s IT growth is being increasingly driven by new hubs beyond traditional metros. Non-metro cities such as Udaipur, Vizag, Coimbatore, and Nagpur recorded over 50% IT hiring growth in H1 2025, significantly higher than Bengaluru and NCR at 12-15%. This reflects a structural shift as tier-II and tier-III hubs attract demand in AI, cloud, and cybersecurity while offering cost savings of around 30%. Mid-tier IT companies also reported stronger growth than their larger counterparts in FY25, highlighting their agility in navigating uncertain global conditions, although sustaining this momentum in FY26 remains a challenge. The domestic market is also expanding steadily. IT spending in India is estimated to have grown 11.1% in 2024 to reach $138.6 billion, up from $124.7 billion in 2023. The Indian software product industry is projected to reach $100 billion by 2025 as companies expand globally and strengthen delivery centres.
India continues to be the world’s leading offshoring destination, trusted for its ability to deliver both onshore and off-shore services at scale. The sector is now entering a new phase, with emerging technologies such as AI, cloud, cybersecurity, and data engineering opening fresh avenues for growth. IT spending in India is expected to rise 11.1% year-on-year to $161.5 billion in 2025, up from $145.4 billion in 2024. The domestic public cloud services market, which grew to $3.8 billion in the first half of 2023, is projected to touch $17.8 billion by 2027. By 2026, widespread adoption of cloud technologies could generate 14 million jobs and add nearly $380 billion to India’s GDP. With a robust talent base, rising demand from non-metro hubs, and continued global confidence in its IT capabilities, India’s technology industry is well-positioned to cement its role as a driver of digital transformation worldwide.
