“Against the backdrop of the current economic growth scenario, this report comes as an eye opener for both companies and professionals on building their talent pools and competencies. A period of stasis is the best time to push pause, reset the priorities and build towards future proofing of the organization,”said Paul Dupuis, MD & CEO, Randstad India.

In May this year, government data showed that joblessness in the country was 6.1% of total labour force during 2017-18, the highest in 45 years.

IT is the highest paying industry in India

There are no surprises when it comes to the best paying industry which is IT. Juniors in the field are paid ₹4.96 lakhs per annum and seniors at ₹35.84 lakhs.

“The renewed demand for professionals with digital skills – cloud, product management, analytics, AI and automation – could be the major factors for the sector’s strong showing this year,” said the report.

There is a huge demand-supply gap between Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning experts. As a result, there’s a cut throat competition for people in AI/ML.

“Talent with the ‘right-fit’ skills commands a significant premium over their peers and companies are not constrained by bell curves and averages when it comes to the salary structure for professionals with in-demand skills; evidenced by the findings of this report,” said Dupuis.

Professional services sector — that includes GST compliance specialists, accountants, management consultants and lawyers — ranked as the second highest paying sector for junior and senior levels, while topping the salaries for mid-level (₹15.3 lakhs) professionals.
