India Emerges as Global Talent Powerhouse: NITI Aayog Report Reveals 1:19 Student Mobility Ratio

0
NITI Aayog’s latest report has revealed India’s fast-rising prominence in global talent mobility, highlighting a striking 1:19 ratio between incoming and outgoing students. While an average of 47,000 foreign students study in India annually, nearly 900,000 Indian students pursue higher education abroad each year. Analysts describe this shift as “brain circulation,” not brain drain, as 68% of Indian postgraduates return after completing their degrees overseas. The US, Canada, UK, Australia and Germany remain the most popular destinations for Indian youth. Meanwhile, most foreign students in India come from neighbouring and African nations for medical and technical programmes. With the government’s Study in India initiative aiming to host 200,000 foreign students by 2030, the report underscores India’s emerging status as a global talent hub.
