Mak and Gyanesh – Thank you so much for this informative research.
There is no denying the fact that Indian Technical writers are high in demand. If we improve the quality and organize it, the demand would go further high. We can only hope that some Indian University or Institute of repute comes out with a course on Technical Writing which combines Information designing with engineering subjects.
The field of technical writing is so vast that developing a course to suit all verticals is difficult.
The course may be further divided into verticals like Aerospace, Medical/Pharmaceutical, Information Technology and Legal.

Thanks,
Ahmar
