India has achieved a significant economic milestone, with its Gross Domestic Product (GDP) reaching $4.3 trillion, according to the latest data from the International Monetary Fund (IMF). This marks a remarkable 105% growth over the past decade, positioning India as the fastest-growing major economy in the world.

The IT industry has played a pivotal role in this economic surge, contributing significantly to the country’s GDP. Over the past ten years, the sector has seen exponential growth, driven by innovation, a skilled workforce, and supportive government policies.

India’s GDP has doubled from $2.1 trillion in 2015 to $4.3 trillion in 2025, outpacing other major economies such as China, the USA, Germany, and the UK. The IT sector has been a major driver of this growth, generating substantial revenue and creating millions of jobs. Companies like Infosys, TCS, and Wipro have led the charge, providing cutting-edge technology solutions globally.

The Indian government’s focus on digital transformation and innovation has created a conducive environment for the IT industry to thrive. Initiatives like Digital India and Make in India have further bolstered the sector’s growth. India’s IT industry has positioned the country as a global leader in areas such as artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and software development. This has not only boosted the economy but also enhanced India’s reputation on the world stage.

With continued investment in technology and innovation, India’s economic outlook remains positive. The country is on track to surpass Japan as the fourth-largest economy by the third quarter of 2025 and Germany by 2027.

In comparison, the growth rates of other top economies over the past decade are as follows:

  • United States: Grew by 22%, from $24.9 trillion in 2015 to $30.3 trillion in 2025

We are excited about the opportunities ahead and are committed to contributing to India’s continued success.”
