Is the ₹15k average salary for Indian youth a skill issue or a structural economy problem?
A huge portion of freshers in India end up earning around ₹15,000/month, and I keep wondering what's really driving this. Is it mainly a skill issue where college degrees aren't teaching what the market actually needs, or is it a broader economic problem where high paying jobs are scarce and massive labor supply keeps wages low? Companies blame a lack of practical skills, but most new job openings seem to be in low-paying gig or service roles anyway. Do you think upskilling alone fixes this, or is the system just built to keep entry-level pay low?
