The Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship (MSDE) had undertaken the study titled ‘National Skill Gap Study for High Growth Sectors’ under the Skills Acquisition and Knowledge Awareness for Livelihood Promotion (SANKALP) programme. This study was undertaken by the National Council of Applied Economic Research (NCAER).

The primary aim of the study is to create a dynamic framework for skill gap assessment that can be regularly updated to predict skill requirements in line with the evolving economic landscape. To ensure uniformity and standardisation a methodology for conducting demand assessments at both sectoral and State levels has been developed. This effort will significantly inform the design of skill initiatives at the national and State levels.National Skill Gap Study for High Growth Sectors
