As per Nasscom, the IT services industry grew 2.7% to $99 billion in 2020-21.

Following a consistent decline in the number of Covid-19 infections across the country in the last few days, the service sector is likely to witness steady growth in hiring activity from July, say experts.

According to Deval Singh, business head of a staffing firm TeamLease Services, ” The current pandemic situation in India is unpredictable and we cannot draw any clear conclusion on how much growth will scale after the second wave, but companies are optimistic that after July, markets should go back to normal and business demand should pick up. Right now, economic stability is critical for India to combat the third wave that may hit the country.”

Sectors that will lead the hiring activity will be healthcare and pharmaceuticals because of the rising demand for doctors, nurses, and pharmacists.

The experts suggest that with lockdown restrictions easing out and the economy reviving the e-commerce, education, IT/ITeS will also offer growth opportunities in the coming quarters.
