According to  TeamLease Services  ‘Digital People Supply Chain Report – Tech in Non-Tech’ for H1-2024, at a fast-growing 7.53 per cent CAGR,  industries  that are primarily in the  non-tech  sector, such as BFSI and consulting, communication media and technology, retail and consumer business, life sciences and healthcare, engineering research and development (ER&D), and energy and resources, are set to employ over 1 million (11.15 lakh) tech talent by FY28.
Currently, these industries employ over 0.7 million tech professionals, said the report.
