Active technology job openings in India were tracked at 123,000 in October, reaching an 18-month high after four consecutive months of increases, according to staffing firm Xpheno [1].
The tracker estimated total demand grew 5% from September and 17% compared with October 2025 [1]. Openings in IT services led the expansion with 66,000 active listings, up 16% from the prior month and 57% higher year-on-year [1].
What it measures
The tracker measures active open technology positions advertised across employers in India during October [1]. Global capability centres accounted for 18,000 active roles, while mid-to-senior positions represented roughly 55% of all active demand in the firm's count [1].
What it does not tell you
Job postings track employer search activity, not completed hires or net employment growth. The tracker measures listings available to a single staffing firm rather than a statutory census of all tech employment across the country.
