Tata Consultancy Services, the biggest provider of IT services in India, announced on Sunday that it will cut 2% of its workforce in its 2026 fiscal year, mainly affecting middle and senior management.
About 12,200 jobs will be lost as a result of the company’s retraining and redeploying of employees as it expands into new markets, makes investments in new technology, and uses artificial intelligence, according to the company.
The business also stated, “This transition is being planned with due care to ensure there is no impact on service delivery to our clients.”
