TCS affirms 600 job offers intact, but skips labour meet
Business Standard
|August 02, 2025
Information-technology (IT) services major Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has told the Union labour ministry that deferring the onboarding of selected candidates is "nothing new", while reaffirming its commitment to honouring job offers made to over 600 experienced professionals.
The company conveyed this in an email on Thursday night, even as its management skipped a scheduled in-person meeting at the office of the Chief Labour Commissioner (CLC) on Friday.
"In an email sent late last night to the labour ministry, the IT giant clarified its position regarding the matter. It said it would 'honour' the commitments made to these professionals. There is some delay in immediately onboarding them, but they remain committed to onboarding them," said an official familiar with the communication.
A meeting was convened following a complaint by the Nascent Information Technology Employees Senate (NITES) regarding delays in onboarding lateral hires. While NITES representatives were present at the CLC office on Friday, the TCS management was absent.
No TCS representative appeared physically at the meeting, despite formal notice from the CLC office, NITES President Harpreet Saluja said in a statement on Friday.
