The hottest job areas aren’t too surprising: cloud computing, data analytics, cybersecurity, machine learning, and AI. These fields make up about 95% of all listings. So, if you’ve been leveling up in these spaces, you’re right where the action is.

Big Cities Still Own the Top Spots
That said the metros still dominate for leadership roles. Mumbai, Delhi NCR, and Bengaluru had a 79% rise in senior-level hiring. So if you’ve got experience and want to move up, the big cities still have the big chairs.
GCCs Are Behind the Boom
One big reason for the spike? Global Captive Centers (GCCs)—basically local arms of international companies added over 1.1 lakh new tech jobs. That’s huge and it’s driving tons of new hiring across the country.
Foreign Investors Got Cold Feet
Not everything’s sunshine, though. Investors pulled out around $1.8 billion from India’s IT sector in April. Why? Disappointing earnings from big firms and nervous forecasts. But the job growth shows the core of the industry is still strong.
Bottom Line? Got Skills, You’re In
To wrap it up: if you’ve got the skills, the IT world is wide open. Degrees are nice, sure but today, it’s what you knowand can do that’s opening doors.
