A report by talent company Adecco India projects the electric vehicle sector will create 30-40 million jobs by 2030, with 10-15 per cent direct and 85-90 per cent indirect roles. Hiring is expected to grow 15-20 per cent annually as demand surges for specialised talent in engineering, energy systems and battery technologies. Manufacturing accounts for 50-55 per cent of employment, concentrated in Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, Gujarat and other hubs. But nearly 70 per cent of new hiring mandates will emerge outside these clusters, in tier-II and III corridors like Hosur and Sanand. The battery recycling market has grown at a CAGR of 55 per cent between FY22 and FY26, emerging as a fast job creator.
