There are pockets of optimism elsewhere in the services sector - especially in accounting, where there is a surge in hiring.

Nasscom declined comment on the hiring slowdown. That has "surely left applicants concerned about future prospects", said staffing firm Xpheno's co-founder Kamal Karanth, who highlighted how current hiring activity was "under a third of what was recorded in the buoyant peak".
