State of Working India 2026: India's Young Workforce is Growing and Getting More Educated
State of Working India 2026 report. However, challenges remain and the extent to which the large, increasingly educated, and aspirational cohort is absorbed into the labour market will determine whether Indias demographic dividend translates into an economic dividend. L-R: Amit Basole, Rosa Abraham & Tamoghna Halder from Azim Premji University More young people today are educated, informed, and ambitious than ever before. These are real achievements of which we can be proud, noted Indu Prasad, President, Azim Premji Universities . The report draws on official databases going back four decades to see how youth participation in education and employment has changed, how well we have been able to use this demographic dividend, and the challenges and opportunities that arise in integrating them into the workforce. Rosa Abraham, lead author of the report and Associate Professor of Economics at Azim Premji University said, The report traces the journey of a young worker - from education to job search and employment, and how this transition has evolved over the last forty years. We hope the report will lay out some of the foundational work that will contribute to a better understanding of the challenges in this transition and enable coordinated policymaking. Key Findings Demographic dividend nearing peak: Indias working-age population share will begin declining after 2030. The pace of job creation in the coming decades is critical to ensure that the demographic dividend translates into an economic one. Rising educational attainment: Youth education levels have increased significantly over four decades, especially among women. Indias tertiary enrolment rate (28%) is comparable to countries with similar per capita incomes. Drop in male tertiary enrolment: The share of young men in education fell from 38% in 2017 to 34% in late 2024, with a large share citing the need to support household incomes as reason for their withdrawal. Expansion of higher education institutions: College availability increased from 29 per lakh youth (2010) to 45 (2021), mainly driven by private institutions. However, regional disparities remain large. Teacher shortages: Faculty growth has not matched rising student numbers. Against AICTE norms of 1520 students per teacher, private colleges average 28 and public colleges 47. Hiring and filling up vacancies remain crucial to ensure that learning outcomes are not compromised due to resource constraints. Rapid expansion of vocational institutes: The number of Industrial Training Institutes (ITIs) has grown by nearly 300% since the 2010s, largely due to private providers. But, institutional quality, especially among private ITIs, has fallen. Higher education has become increasingly democratised but financial barriers remain: Between 2007 and 2017, the share of students in tertiary education who belong to the poorest households increased from 8 percent to 15 percent. Financial barriers in accessing professional courses: Students from richer households are far more likely to pursue engineering and medicine, as the cost of these degrees often exceeds the annual per capita expenditure of poorer households. Difficult education-to-employment transition: Graduate unemployment among the 15- to 29-year-olds remains high nearly 40% among the 15- to 25-year-olds, and 20% among the 25- to 29-year-olds; and, only a small share secure stable salaried jobs within a year of graduation. Strong graduate wage premium: Graduates earn roughly twice as much as non-graduates at entry, and the earnings gap widens over their careers. Stagnating male graduate earnings: Entry-level salaries for young male graduates have slowed in growth since 2011, while gender gaps in graduate earnings have narrowed. Shift away from agriculture: Young workers are leaving agriculture faster than older cohorts and moving into manufacturing and services. Young women are increasingly employed in IT, automobile manufacturing, and business services. Declining caste and gender occupational segregation: Younger cohorts are less concentrated in occupations traditionally linked to their caste or gender. Migration as a labour market response: Youth migration helps balance regional disparities - poorer states and those with a younger population remain major labour sources, while richer states with a predominantly older population rely increasingly on migrant youth.

IPL 2026: Abhishek, Ishan In Race To Captain SRH In Initial Games In Pat Cummins Absence
Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy: Indias left-handed opener Abhishek Sharma and wicketkeeper-batter Ishan Kishan are in the race to lead Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in their initial matches in their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 campaign, as regular captain Pat Cummins is unavailable as he is still recovering from a back injury. SRH, the IPL 2016 winners, will begin their IPL 2026 campaign against defending champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) at the M, Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on March 28. Cummins has not played competitive cricket since the third Ashes Test in Adelaide in December 2025, after being out of action post the tour of West Indies due to a lumbar bone stress injury in his lower back. He was subsequently ruled out of the remaining Ashes matches and the 2026 ICC Men's T20 World Cup due to the same issue. IANS understands that Abhishek and wicketkeeper-batter Ishan Kishan, who were members of the Indian team that won the 2026 Mens T20 World Cup, are in the race to lead SRH in Cummins absence. Kishan, who has been in the SRH camp since the 2025 IPL, captained Jharkhand to winning the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy title in the recent domestic season and has understandably strong credentials to lead the side in Cummins absence. Abhishek, meanwhile, joined SRH ahead of IPL 2019 and has been a mainstay with the side - forming an ultra-attacking opening partnership alongside Australias Travis Head. While the in-form Kishan hit three fifties in Indias triumphant T20 World Cup win, Abhishek finally found mojo to smash a half-century off just 18 balls in the final, which India won by 96 runs. Pat Cummins is recovering from the injury, but he mostly needs to clear his fitness tests, and then he will join the team. He is ready to play, but he has to clear the fitness tests and then join the SRH set-up. As Cummins will take more time, the team management is still deciding if either Ishan or Abhishek will lead SRH. If all goes well, then whoever is the interim SRH captain will attend the IPL 2026 captains and managers meet, to be held on March 25 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. A customary photoshoot of all ten captains with the tournaments trophy will also be held there, said a source familiar with the matter to IANS on Monday. If Abhishek becomes SRHs captain, this will be the first time he has captained an IPL side, which will also be the case if Kishan gets the leadership armband. But Cummins' absence for the initial IPL 2026 games is a huge blow for SRH. His absence deprives them of having both their leader and their most dependable bowler in what is already considered the side's most vulnerable department, despite having one of the most fearsome batting line-ups in the competition. If Abhishek becomes SRHs captain, this will be the first time he has captained an IPL side, which will also be the case if Kishan gets the leadership armband. But Cummins' absence for the initial IPL 2026 games is a huge blow for SRH. Also Read: Live Cricket Score Uncapped bowling options include Shivang Kumar, Krains Fuletra, Jack Edwards, Sakib Hussain, Onkar Tarmale, Amit Kumar, and Praful Hinge. After the highs of 2024, when they finished as runners-up, SRH misfired throughout the campaign to finish at sixth place in the points table in 2025. Article Source: IANS

West Zone then cruised to victory without loss in 13 overs, with Rizvi contributing an unbeaten 53 and Devendra Pandey remaining not out on 36. In the table tennis event at the Roshanara Club, SJAM-1's Amol Karhadkar and Ashwin Ferro defeated the Delhi Sports Journalists Association's (DSJA-1) trio of Bharat Sharma, Kushan Sarkar, and Norris Pritam to claim the team championship title.
