India’s job market is experiencing a transformation. The country has become the world’s fastest growing large economy following the COVID-19 pandemic, and its young population is key to this expansion. With the highest employment elasticity to economic growth, India’s service sector presents a promising outlook.
Which sectors and sub-sectors are driving India’s employment potential? How can India optimise its demographic dividend to maximise economic growth? What policy shifts might support sustainable and healthy employment? And how might India’s employment story unfold?
Building on the findings of ORF’s recent study, India Employment Outlook 2030: Navigating Sectoral Trends and Competencies (April 2024), the event at ORF Kolkata will see a group of high-powered experts and the report’s authors exploring the cascading changes that are defining India’s employment landscape.
