India's IT Industry Faces Growth Challenges Amid Macroeconomic and AI Pressures
India's IT industry faces continued growth challenges due to weak macroeconomic conditions and cautious client spending, with forecasts predicting modest expansion of 1-4% through FY28. Analysts highlight delayed project ramp-ups and AI-driven pricing pressures as key factors constraining revenue growth. While AI may disrupt certain low-skilled services over the next 12-24 months, it also presents opportunities in consulting and digital transformation. Indian IT firms' ability to adapt to changing customer needs and leverage existing relationships will influence their future performance amid these uncertainties.
