Industry Outlook

India has proved itself to be a valuable business centre for multinational corporations across the globe. Whether in software programming, hardware and networking, finance and accounting, hospitality, travel and tourism, education, fashion, manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, or infrastructure management, India plays an undeniably significant role globally. The corporate training market in India is in its growth stage and will continue to be so for the next 10-15 years. Considering the size and magnitude of growth factors, such as a robust IT and service industry, a large and young workforce, and India’s fast GDP growth, the corporate training market is still relatively underpenetrated in India. Its size is small compared to the global corporate training market, indicating significant untapped potential for growth. From FY'13 to FY'19, the market was growing rapidly at a healthy double-digit CAGR; however, in FY'21, the overall market growth contracted due to the Covid-19 pandemic. During the review period 2017-2022, the corporate training market in India grew at a positive CAGR of 9.8%. Even though there was a negative contraction in FY'21, the market managed to maintain a positive CAGR, as IT and service companies quickly resumed operations by adopting hybrid and work-from-home models, and training companies were able to deliver online through various modes of e-learning.
