Not dependent on H-1B visas: TCS CEO
Business Standard
|October 13, 2025
Can you comment on the letter from US Senators Chuck Grassley and Dick Durbin which questions TCS for laying off over 12,000 employees globally while simultaneously hiring more than 5,500 H-1B workers?
-
Chief Executive Officer of TCS K Krithivasan
= Iwas neither happy nor unhappy. It gave mean opportunity to articulate our positions more clearly and to address the Senators’ questions about the H-B issue. First of all, we discussed the figure of 5,500. Most of these numbers relate to people who are amending or renewing their petitions; they are not fresh approvals. Fresh approvals are much lower, probably around 2,500. However, everything is recorded as an application or petition, which often causes confusion.
Italso allowed me to explain what weare doing, including the steps we are taking to work with local academia, where we are deeply involved. Inthe US, we train and recruit people. We hae alarge training centre in Cincinnati. We work with schools and tell students that STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) education is an important career choice.
TCS aims to become the largest AI-driven technology services company. But what does that really mean?
