The emerging economy, in which services, communications and information technologies play a significant role has created new avenues for the skilled workers.

Under such circumstances talent retention has become a big problem for the business and organizations especially in IT Industry. Researchers have done intensive and extensive research covering all the three tiers companies of Information Industry in and around Delhi NCR, Bengaluru and Pune.
