TCS sees no major impact from US green card curbs, to hire 80% talent with digital, AI skills

India’s largest IT services company, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), does not expect the US government to target technology companies based on their domicile, with its leadership attributing recent immigration-related actions to domestic employment concerns. The company also plans to focus its future recruitment on digital and artificial intelligence (AI) skills, with 80 per cent of new hires expected to have new-age capabilities.

TCS chief executive and managing director K Krithivasan said technology companies are deeply integrated into the US ecosystem and provide important services, while emphasising that the company’s long-term strategy in its largest market by revenue remains unchanged.
