TCS hires 9,279 in Q1FY27, net hiring jumps over 3x sequentially

The hiring announcement by TCS is decidedly one of the key aspects of the Q1 results. In what’s good news for TCS investors and employees, the company has added more than 9000 employees this quarter.

The total number of employees stands at 593,798 at the end of Q1FY27. The Q1 attrition rate, too, saw a slight improvement at 13.6% compared to 13.7% in FY26. The company also completed its annual increment, and this was a key reason why the margins were slightly lower.
