Indian Automotive Sector to Expand Workforce by 70% in H2 FY25

The Indian automotive sector is expected to witness significant growth in the second half of the fiscal year 2025 (H2 FY25), with a projected workforce expansion of 70%.

The rising demand for electric vehicles (EVs), premium models, and high-tech connected automobiles drives this growth.

The anticipated expansion will create numerous job opportunities in roles such as robotics experts, software engineers, and supply chain managers.

Cities like Chennai, Mumbai, and Delhi are at the forefront of this hiring wave, with significant growth also observed in Gurgaon, Indore, and Coimbatore.

Automotive Sector Trends and Hiring Momentum

The automotive sector is investing heavily in specialized skill sets like IoT, AI, and Analytics to stay competitive.

This focus on innovation and talent development positions the sector as a key driver of India’s economic and employment growth.

The growing demand for EV production and advanced technologies fuels the surge in hiring.

Engineering roles are leading the hiring intent at 66%, followed by sales (60%) and information and communication technology (ICT) roles (56%).

Additionally, 82% of employers are extending working hours to meet seasonal demand rather than solely expanding their workforce.

Recent Developments; Economic Contribution
