State of Tech Hiring in India, July 2026: What 123,875 Job Postings Show

This is a short summary of Jobspiq's July 2026 hiring report. The full report, with charts and the data table, is on jobspiq.in.

The headline number

In July 2026 (1–31 July), Jobspiq counted 123,875 tech job postings in India from LinkedIn, Naukri and company career pages.

Where the jobs were

City Postings
Bengaluru 27,840
Hyderabad 11,271
Pune 11,050
Mumbai 9,974
Chennai 8,544

Bengaluru alone had 22.5% of all postings, more than Hyderabad and Pune combined.

The skills that showed up most

Counted as mentions in job postings; one posting can mention several skills.

Skill Mentions
Python 26,101
SQL 22,598
Agile 19,727
Azure 18,864
AWS 18,785
CI/CD 18,143
Git 16,503
DevOps 13,649
Java 12,806

Python and SQL lead, and cloud (Azure, AWS) and delivery skills (CI/CD, DevOps) are close behind.

Work mode

89% of postings were onsite or hybrid. 11% were fully remote. If you're filtering only for remote roles, you're looking at about one posting in nine.

Limits

These counts cover the sources Jobspiq checks, so they describe those sources, not every tech job in India. Most listings come from LinkedIn and Naukri. Skill counts measure how often a skill is mentioned, not how many people are hired for it.

About the data
