Most Preferred Workplace IT & ITES 4thEdition 2025-26

Shaping India’s Growth Through Human Capital

India is poised to remain the fastest-growing large economy globally in FY 2025-26, with a projected growth rate of 6.3%. But this promise can only be realised by harnessing one of India’s most defining strengths: its people.

As demographic dividends intersect with a technology-first future, the IT & ITES sector stands at the heart of this transition. Yet, for all the opportunities created by AI, digitisation, and automation, the sector faces mounting challenges in skills availability, evolving employee expectations, and rising attrition. Workers today are no longer content with predictability—they seek flexibility, fulfilment, and growth. In fact, as per PwC’s Asia Pacific Workforce Hopes and Fears Survey 2024, about 48% of Asia Pacific workers have had to learn new technology and tools over the past year thanks to advances across industries.

New paradigms in job satisfaction, performance management, and learning have taken root. The onus is on organisations to evolve with them, not just to stay competitive, but to remain relevant. From redefining leadership to recalibrating rewards, India Inc. must rethink its relationship with talent. As the war for skills intensifies, those who create inclusive, adaptive, and future-forward workplaces will lead the charge into the new age of work.

Recognising Resilience in a Transforming Industry

In this context of flux and transformation, the IT & ITES sector has emerged as both a bulwark of stability and a catalyst of change. Its scale, agility, and outsized impact on India’s economic trajectory make it a bellwether of the future of work. As leaders navigate generational shifts, GenAI integration, workforce well-being, and the rise of nudgetech and ethical AI norms, one truth remains clear: organisational resilience will increasingly be built on human foundations.

And it is precisely this truth that Most Preferred Workplace 2025-26 – IT & ITES Edition seeks to spotlight. With its rigorous, insight-led methodology, this initiative identifies the brands and businesses that have gone beyond surface-level transformation to craft workplaces that inspire, empower, and endure. By celebrating forward-looking organisations who’ve reimagined engagement, culture, and capability-building, we aim to provide a blueprint for a more meaningful future of work—one where progress and people go hand in hand. As the IT-ITES sector retools itself for what lies ahead, these are the companies leading from the front.
