No, it is not compulsory to go abroad for placements after studying abroad - you can seek placements in India as well.

Many Indian companies and multinational firms recognize international degrees and actively recruit candidates with overseas education. Your foreign degree can give you an advantage in sectors like IT, finance, consulting, and research.

However, some Indian employers may prefer local qualifications, and you might face competition from candidates with Indian degrees. Building a strong professional network and understanding the Indian job market can help improve your chances of securing a job in India after studying abroad.
