“A difficult time for IT developers at the entry level …”: Mumbai CEO of new graduates alerts

Warning signs have become higher than the technical talent group in India. Udit Goenka, founder and CEO of Tinycheque, has been published on X that novice IT developers will struggle to find jobs in 2025. His advice to new graduates? “Focus on building live products and make them open source. This is the only way you can display your talent and fall into a job.”

His warning comes at a time when concerns about the future of white collars in India are increasing, and the wave of artificial intelligence may be in its heart.
Atomberg Arindam Paul, the founder of ATOMberg Arindam Paul, recently looked an ultimatum about what he sees as an imminent work crisis led by artificial intelligence in India. In a detailed publication on LinkedIn, Paul wrote, “Nearly 40-50 percent of the functions of those with white collars today may stop existence,” warning that such a severe shift would spell the end of the middle class in India and its consumption-based economy.

His remarks resonated recent warnings from the founder of Zoho Sridhar Vembu, who was honest about the weak functions of software in India in a rapidly automated world.

“I do not think that most people, including our leaders, still understand how the threat of artificial intelligence of our economy may be,” Paul added, noting specifically to remove the roles of white collars.

According to Paul, the root problem exceeds Amnesty International – it is the manufacturing sector in India. He said, “Our manufacture is not close to the place where it should be when it comes to generating jobs that pay 3-6 kits annually,” noting that there is no industrial pillow to absorb displaced workers.

Paul did not retreat while criticizing the cornerstone sectors in India – he and BPO – which indicates “a significant decrease in the workforce and in many cases in their business.” He explained that while companies like Infosys may adapt, their work scale will shrink. “They will not hire nearly a lot of people as they do,” he said frankly.

He also took over the enthusiasm of companies for Amnesty International. “Although all companies are happy today that artificial intelligence will reduce the workforce, increase efficiency and improve the bottom bottom, they forget that without jobs and money in the hands of the consumer, there will be no higher line.”

Despite the dark expectations, Paul said: “I hope none of this happens and we will continue to develop our gross domestic product on an absolute level as well as at the individual level, but I also believe that this is the most likely scenario for India unless we really double manufacturing.”
