There’s a very good demand and opportunities with top product companies in India. However, if you’re a fresher, you need to keep your expectations low at first (unless you’re a kaggle grandmaster or from IIT). You can start as analyst at any good company and then gradually move to data scientist position when you gain experience. Trust me not more than 5% of data scientist in India are doing the fancy stuff that all these online platforms advertise. At the core of it it’s all simple exploratory analysis and few simple models. This means, this “Data scientist” tag with no experience is really not that valuable for you but an analyst tag at UBER india can really fetch you some good salary. Hope this helps!

It will not. Just make sure your targets are achievable at first. This will help you keep motivated and moving up in data science ladder.

All the best!
