Not in the IT sector. For the last several years we've seen 20-30% salary increases annually. I would argue it's more due to market conditions and the hiring practices of the big consultancies than inflation, but probably a third to half of that is an inflationary response.
Sure, but the vast majority of Indians are not in the IT sector. These salary increases in IT are great for engineers, but they also work against India as an offshoring destination because of the rising costs.
Yes, exactly. It will be interesting to see what happens in the next 3-5yrs if salary inflation doesn't slow down or reverse and external investment is similarly reduced.
