Abstract: Indian IT sector employees' perspective on moonlighting is unexplored and requires attention. The current study aims to understand the perspective of Indian IT professionals' moonlighting intention. The mediating effect of organisational commitment on job satisfaction and moonlighting intentions is also explored. A theoretical model is proposed, and data was collected from 233 Indian IT professionals via a self-designed structured questionnaire to test the proposed model empirically. Path analysis using SEM was conducted to test the proposed hypotheses. For data analysis, IBM AMOS 22.0 software was used. The empirical synthesis of the study reveals that monetary benefits and personal factors significantly impact moonlighting intentions while other variables, i.e., KSA enhancement and job satisfaction, have no significant impact. The study results reveal that organisational commitment does not mediate between the variables job satisfaction and moonlighting intentions. The findings provide insights into the moonlighting intentions of employees and the factors that influence their intentions.
