India's gig internet workforce to grow to 17-21 million by 2030: Redseer
New Delhi: The gig workforce catering to services emanating from mobile apps is expected to grow about threefold in India to 17-21 million by 2030 from around 6 million at present, Redseer Strategy Consultants said on Thursday.
Redseer Strategy Consultants' report, 'Gig Internet Workforce in India: Bridge to ~20 Million Livelihoods', has found that gig internet platforms across delivery, ride hailing, and home services have evolved beyond being a source of flexible work.
"India's monthly active gig internet workforce is expected to grow from over 6 million today to 17-21 million by 2030. 54 per cent of surveyed workers were not in paid employment before joining gig platforms," the report said.
According to the report, more than 30 per cent of projected gig workers by 2030 are expected to be first-time entrants to the workforce.
