With India reinforcing its status as the world's fastest-growing major economy, the report predicts that the country will emerge as the third-largest consumer market by 2027.The workforce employed in this sector will be crucial in enhancing its capacity to effectively serve its intended beneficiaries and attain sustainable growth. The report highlights the critical role of this workforce in meeting the sector's demand for diverse talent swiftly and efficiently. In the report, TeamLease Services highlighted high-demand temporary roles such as in-store promoters, service technicians, supervisors, sales trainers, channel sales executives, customer support executives, warehouse in-charge, tele-support executives, and electronics engineers, as pivotal to the growth in the consumer durables and electronics industries.

Notably, the AC market is projected to reach ₹5.8 billion by 2028 with a CAGR of 15%, while the mobile phones market is estimated to reach ₹61.2 billion by 2028, growing at a CAGR of 6.7%. A demographic profile of the temporary workforce reveals it is predominantly male (94%), with an average age of 31 years and a tenure of 2.8 years. More than half of this workforce has education levels below the 12th standard, and hence, appropriate training is required to develop certain skill sets to ensure productivity.

Our report reveals over ₹100 crore opportunity cost pertaining to lost revenue for a midsized firm, highlighting the urgent need for businesses to address this issue proactively. Tackling attrition is not just a cost-saving measure but an investment in the sustained growth and competitiveness of our manufacturing and retail powerhouses.
