India's Outsourcing Industry Grows as AI Reshapes Service Demand, Says ING
India's outsourcing industry continues to grow despite concerns about AI automation, with software and business services exports rising significantly as the country moves toward higher-value tasks. According to ING Bank, digitally delivered services exports increased 45% since 2022, outpacing global growth, and now represent about 8.5% of India's GDP. ING economist Deepali Bhargava noted that AI is reshaping outsourced work rather than reducing demand, with strong growth in analytics, software development, risk management, and engineering services.
