Nasscom claims that IT industry is hiring 1.5 lakh people every year. “In fact the industry continues to be a net hirer with over 1.5 lakh people being employed on a net basis each year, though the focus is shifting from scale to skill,” said Nasscom.

On recent layoff in some Indian IT firms, Nasscom said “Workforce realignment linked to performance appraisal processes is a regular feature every year.” “Talent and skills are the key building blocks for the industry which is intensifying investment in in skilling / reskilling its workforce to strengthen its foundation on a continuous basis,” said Nasscom.
