AI-skilled professionals are earning as much as 60% more than peers in other tech fields, and the divide is expected to grow over the next two to three years as entry-level hiring contracts at large IT firms, according to recruitment agencies.
“AI-complementary roles across technology, GCCs and banking and financial services (BFSI) are commanding a 30–60% premium, creating one of the sharpest within-sector pay gaps in India’s job market,” said Neeti Sharma, CEO of staffing firm TeamLease Digital.
