Major Plantation Sub-Sectors and Employment Challenges

May 1 - 31, 2025

TEA : The Indian tea industry directly employs over 1 million people and indirectly supports around 10 million individuals, making it the second-largest producer after China. However, employment in this sector has been on a gradual decline since the 1950s and has now stagnated at around 1 million workers.

Major Plantation Sub-Sectors and Employment Challenges

A 2020 ILO study titled “Wages and Working Conditions in the Tea Sector in India, Indonesia, and Vietnam” highlighted that employment opportunities are closely tied to education levels — an area where the Indian tea sector lags significantly. One positive development is that in 2021, the Tea Board of India lifted restrictions on estate expansion, allowing anyone to start tea plantations, thus creating new employment opportunities.

Moreover, the Tea Board of India has launched several initiatives, including gradual replantation, adoption of modem technology at subsidised rates, branding and sales promotion of Indian tea, and other financial support programs to revitalize the sector.

Rupee has weakened

The rupee has weakened significantly over the past year, falling from 84.7 to 89.7 against the US dollar. Its depreciation has been even sharper against the euro (9.4 per cent) and the British pound (14.3 per cent). It has also lost value against the Japanese yen and the Chinese yuan. In nominal terms, therefore, the rupee has depreciated against all major global currencies.
