PwC India commits to triple revenue and create 20,000 jobs by 2030

PwC India has announced an ambitious plan to triple its revenue and add 20,000 new jobs by 2030, marking a significant expansion in its operations across the country. The professional services giant detailed its Vision 2030 strategy on Tuesday, revealing a focus on tier-II and tier-III cities and increased investment in technology, innovation, and sustainability.

According to a press statement released by PwC India, the firm plans to deepen its expertise across six key sectors: financial services, healthcare, industrial manufacturing, automotive, technology, and media & telecom. These sectors are expected to offer the largest opportunities for transformational growth in the coming years.

Sanjeev Krishan, Chairperson of PwC India, outlined the firm’s commitment to building a future-ready workforce through enhanced learning opportunities, prioritising women in leadership roles, and fostering inclusive growth. “We are focused on building a future-ready workforce by expanding access to learning, prioritising women in leadership, and creating inclusive growth journeys that allow our people to thrive — from the campus to the boardroom,” Krishan said.

PwC India currently employs approximately 30,000 professionals and has nearly 900 partners across major Indian cities. The firm intends to invest five percent of its annual revenues in technology, innovation, and capability building, and one percent in upskilling its people and partners.

Expanding beyond metro cities

As part of its Vision 2030, PwC India is broadening its geographical footprint to tier-II and tier-III cities, reflecting the growing economic potential outside traditional metropolitan hubs. This move aligns with the country’s broader push to stimulate economic growth in emerging urban centres.

Krishan emphasised that this expansion is crucial for addressing evolving client needs and supporting India's economic growth: “Vision 2030 for us is about building on India’s growth potential and making bold shifts in our business. We are expanding into tier-II and tier-III cities, enhancing our sectoral depth, and embedding digital and technology capabilities at the heart of our offerings.”

PwC India’s growth strategy highlights the increasing importance of digital transformation, cloud computing, cybersecurity, and sustainability. The firm is embracing next-generation technologies, including generative AI (GenAI), to strengthen its service delivery model.

Krishan described the next five years as a pivotal period for India: “We see growth shifting toward emerging domains, grounded in human needs. These domains will shape future markets and create unique opportunities for us to support our clients — and our country. This is our moment to lead and define what’s next.”

Strategic focus on sectors

The six “Go Long” sectors identified by PwC India—financial services, healthcare, industrial manufacturing, automotive, technology, and media & telecom—represent areas where the company expects to deliver transformational impact by helping clients reinvent business models, operations, and resource use.

This sectoral focus reflects broader trends in the Indian economy where innovation, regulatory changes, and digital adoption are rapidly reshaping industries.

A key pillar of PwC India’s Vision 2030 is talent development. The firm is committed to inclusive growth, emphasising the advancement of women in leadership and fostering diverse talent pipelines.

“We are expanding access to learning, prioritising women in leadership, and creating inclusive growth journeys that allow our people to thrive,” said Krishan.
