Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) is projected to enhance the productivity of India's $254 billion software industry by 43%-45% over the next five years, according to a survey by EY India. This increase will affect around 500 roles as the IT sector integrates GenAI internally and transitions client projects from proof of concept to production. Notably, 89% of surveyed companies have begun trialing GenAI projects, with 33% already in production.
The survey indicates that software development roles will see the most significant productivity boost, estimated at 60%, followed by BPO services at 52% and IT consulting at 47%. These three areas are expected to contribute to 50%-60% of the overall productivity improvement in tech services. The growing adoption of AI is not only enhancing customer service but also reducing costs and driving revenue growth.
