Indian companies are increasingly hiring foreign executives and Indians with global experience to build capability in new growth areas, facilitate digital transformation, lead international expansion and make up for local talent shortages.
Kotak Mahindra Bank, Vedanta, Larsen & Toubro, the Tata Group and the Adani Group are among large Indian conglomerates and companies that are bullish on expat talent, they said. There is also increased interest among these executives to work in India, given the opportunity for growth and experience this country offers, they said.
