Blog Title: 🌐 From Boom to Bend: What
Indian IT's Turning Point Teaches Us About the Future!
Hello ShipFam 🙋♂️✈️
I'm Dattaram Walvankar from ShipOps Insights with
Dattaram – where I guide shipping professionals not just on operational
excellence but also personal and professional growth with the power of
perspective.
Today, let me take you beyond the ocean routes, into the
world of Indian IT — a sector that once scripted dreams, now facing real waves
of change. Here's a journey we must all learn from.
1. 📚 The IT Revolution: A
Dream in Code
In the last 30 years, Indian IT revolutionized our economy
and society. It built an empowered urban middle class, created millionaires out
of employees and investors, pushed real estate growth, and brought in billions
in foreign currency.
Just imagine this: a young engineer in a Tier 2 city would
dream of learning coding, joining an IT company, and transforming their
family’s destiny. It was India's version of the "American Dream."
Thousands of freshers hired yearly by giants like TCS,
Infosys, Wipro. A golden age!
But dreams shift... and so does reality.

2. ❌ The Downturn Nobody Saw Coming
Recent headlines are jolting:
- TCS
to let go of 12,000 mid-senior professionals.
- No
pay hike in Infosys.
- 2023
grads still waiting for joining letters.
- From
lakhs of hirings to just thousands now.
- Bench
strength cleared in 30 days!
Even NRIs are affected. The contraction is global.
It's not just numbers. It's dreams paused. Families anxious.
Cities slowing down.

3. ⚡ But Why? The Blind Spot in the
Mirror
While the Indian IT sector was earning big, it mostly
remained service-focused. They didn't invest enough in AI, deep tech, product
development, or innovation.
The world moved to automation, while we kept offering manual
services.
Result? We’re late to the future.
The IT sector became a victim of its own success. What
worked before isn’t working now.

4. 🏢 Ripple Effect: Beyond the Cubicle
This slowdown is not isolated. When IT sneezes, the economy
catches a cold:
- Urban
real estate is seeing delays and reduced demand.
- Premium
consumption is shrinking.
- Training,
staffing, consultancy companies are also impacted.
Everything is connected. One industry's stagnation slows
down many others.

5. 🤔 The Bigger Questions
India Must Ask
India must face the storm head-on:
- How
do we generate high-paying jobs at scale?
- Youth
unemployment is rising. Gig economy is not enough.
- Many
are stuck in "self-employment" with no stability.
We need action, not just aspiration. Skill-building, job
creation, and futuristic investments must become our mantra.

6. 🔎 Time to Rethink,
Reskill, Rebuild
What do we need?
- Invest
in AI, Deep Tech, Green Energy.
- Attract
global product startups to India.
- Focus
on serious upskilling.
The IT sector took India to the world. But what will take us
beyond?
It's time to be bold, visionary, and purpose-driven.
