HROne Research Institute presents

State of HR Tech India 2027

HR has more technology than ever. Is it creating proportionately more value?

The India HR Tech Survey 2026 asks Indian organizations what they're really buying, connecting, adopting, replacing and investing in next.

01

The HR-tech stack

How many platforms are organizations really running?

02

Connectedness

Genuinely connected — or just installed together?

03

Adoption

Are teams, managers and employees actually using it?

04

Value

Can organizations demonstrate HR-tech ROI?

05

Buying priorities

What will be added, replaced or consolidated next?

06

The rebuild question

Rebuild today — same stack, or bigger expectations?

Add Your Perspective → Real perspectives. A clearer tomorrow. Findings unveiled live at the Summit.

Convened by HROne
