Tata Consultancy Services plans to lay off 2% of its workforce, impacting mainly middle and senior grades, as part of its future-ready initiative. The company intends to focus on technology investments, AI deployment, and market expansion, while supporting affected employees with benefits and reskilling programs.

Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), India's largest IT services provider, is set to dismiss around 12,261 employees, constituting 2% of its global workforce, this year. The decision largely affects middle and senior-level staff.

As of June 30, 2025, TCS's workforce included 613,069 employees, with a recruitment surge of 5,000 in the April-June quarter. This restructuring is part of TCS's strategy to innovate and expand globally.

The company aims to build a future-ready organization with investments in new technology, AI deployment, and international market entry, while offering assistance and reskilling opportunities to laid-off employees.
