Strong — India's enterprise AR market (industrial training, healthcare simulation, automotive HMI) is growing independent of consumer metaverse cycles, with Tata Elxsi, L&T LTTS, and Wipro Vizualite expanding XR practice headcount through 2027. Consumer AR (retail try-on, brand filters) is driven by Reliance Jio Glass, Lenskart WebAR, and FMCG brand-filter commissions. Apple Vision Pro's India entry (projected 2026-27) will catalyze new visionOS-native design demand. Senior XR designer shortage in India is structural — roughly 300-500 production-credentialed specialists nationally — making the mid-to-senior talent market a seller's market for designers with shipped headset experience.
