A recent estimate by NASSCOM stated that Indian tech industry has remained resilient despite an uncertain macroeconomic environment and is expected to hit $245 billion in revenue terms in FY23. The industry had grown at 15.5% -- its best in a decade -- to $226 billion in FY22 as the changes brought about by the Covid pandemic made technology a necessity for clients.
To understand the business sentiment for 2022 (FY2023), NASSCOM conducted its annual survey of both end-user enterprises and tech CEOs. The survey has revealed that chief executives are "cautiously optimistic" about the future, and the industry lobby also declined to share its target for FY24, added the report.
"FY23 has been another growth year for the industry creating impact for the country and all our stakeholders. Despite global headwinds and some moderation in demand, the industry value proposition of resilience, agility and a transformation partner for global enterprises, enabled the industry to strengthen its leadership in core and emerging areas," said Krishnan Ramanujam, chairperson at NASSCOM, in a statement.
