India’s IT/ITeS industry is rapidly embracing flexible staffing, signaling a shift in work culture and talent strategy.
📊 Key Highlights:
1️⃣390,000 flexi workers currently employed in IT/ITeS (7% of a 5.8 million workforce), projected to reach 900,000 by 2030 at a 15% CAGR
2️⃣These roles are concentrated in Bengaluru (25%), Hyderabad (15%), Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Pune, Chennai (~10% each), with Tier‑2/III cities contributing ~20%
