Pay transparency in India is gaining momentum, driven by jobseeker demand
Bengaluru, 28 August 2025: India’s formal job market softened in July, with job postings on global matching and hiring platform Indeed declining 5.8% after two consecutive months of growth. While postings were down 14.9% year-on-year, they still remain 70% above pre-pandemic levels, highlighting the resilience of formal hiring despite cyclical cooling. The job postings have fallen 21% since peaking in January 2023.
"Even when overall hiring slows, tech remains the heartbeat of India’s job market. With one in five formal postings for software development, the real challenge isn’t demand, it’s whether we can build a workforce skilled enough to meet it,” said Callam Pickering, Indeed’s APAC Senior Economist.
