TCS says US PERM suspension won't change hiring plans
In short
TCS said the US PERM suspension will not change its workforce plans. The company still wants to hire 15,000 people in the US over five years and says it will focus on local hiring and campus recruitment.
This matters because TCS depends on US staffing for growth. It is still unclear how the policy change may affect other Indian IT firms.
What the reporting says
TCS said the US suspension of PERM processing will not affect its workforce plans and that it aims to hire 15,000 people in the US over five years. The company said its US strategy centres on hiring local employees, including through campus recruitment. The immediate consequence is limited, but the reporting leaves the broader policy impact on the company and peers uncertain.
Why it matters

The company said it is focusing on local hiring, including campus recruitment. The reporting suggests limited direct impact on TCS’s current plan, but it does not say whether peers face greater exposure to the policy change.
