Mumbai is India’s economic capital and among some of the most developed tech centers in Asia. But even though it would be expected for the FinTech industry to be the main contributor to the local economy, the tech sector is surprisingly surpassing all other industries and is considered the top key industry. 

According to Indiatimes, Mumbai has one of the highest tech job opportunity growth in Asia, and more exactly 32.5% which makes it a promising place for both tech companies and skilled professionals. However, investors are somewhat cautious in investing in tech startups and rather prefer to bid on solid and sustainable business - the main reason for that being the unstable startup ecosystem.  With all these, the Mumbai tech industry still manages to attract new professionals, especially those who are returning from overseas, with rich experience in the field. 

According to payscale, the tech average wage in Mumbai is estimated to be 804K INR or almost $11000 USD/year, but of course, it may vary from company to company. The high competition among Indian tech companies lead to lower prices/project and lower hourly rates which also means that Mumbai is a good place to find IT and software companies that charge lower than other western companies per project. 

At the same time, one of the biggest challenges IT companies face is the talent shortage, which reached in 2020 critical levels. According to the same source, the shortage of entry-level devs was 46,6%, middle level - 33.87%, and senior-level over 19%. The problem is expected to be solved in the near future mainly because of young professionals that graduate from tech universities in Mumbai and also due to talent migration within India. 

In case you are searching for a partner for a tech project in India, Mumbai is surely one of the best destinations you should explore. 

Web development is about creating, building, and maintaining websites or web applications using programming languages and web development frameworks. The main reason why web development services are popular is the need for businesses to establish their presence on the web. 

Building a website or a web application involves creating the user interface (UI) and user experience (UX), including the layout, colors, fonts, and images. It also consists in optimizing these elements for mobile and desktop, making the interface accessible to users, and facilitate the interaction between the user and the application. On the back-end, it involves scripting, server configuration, and database management. At the same time, it includes testing, maintenance, and ensuring overall functionality.

According to recent studies, over 4.7 billion people worldwide have access to the Internet. So, it’s obvious that having a well-designed and developed website is essential for any business that wants to succeed online.

On top of that, the number of mobile internet users is constantly growing, with approximately 92% of internet users accessing the web through their smartphones which proves the importance of responsive and optimized websites on mobile devices.

In a nutshell, a web developer, which is providing development services is responsible for:

• Establish a company's online presence via a web application
• Improve and optimize the performance of the website or web app
• Update and maintain the well-functioning of the website or web apps

In addition, depending on the terms of a contract between a company and a web developer, the second can assist with: 

• Backup the data of the website
• Operate changes to the UI
• Migrate the website to another domain or platform

Usually, a web developer should have both soft and hard skills. The soft skills are related to communication and reporting, while the hard skills help in the development process.  

If you choose to work with a web development company, make sure to keep in mind the following criteria in the selection process:

• The company should have experience in developing websites or web applications that are similar to yours.
• A solid portfolio that proves examples of their work.
