Tata Consultancy Services, a leading player in India’s information technology sector, has extended job offers to 25,000 new graduates for the financial year 2027 (FY27). If the demand from businesses continues to rise, the company may consider hiring additional personnel, according to the statements made by TCS CEO and MD, K Krithivasan, to PTI.
TCS has confirmed making 25,000 offers for fresh graduates in FY27. Krithivasan pointed out that a clearer picture of demand could lead to increased recruitment. It has been reported that TCS successfully hired over 44,000 freshers in the Financial Year 2026, marking one of the most significant increases in fresh hires within India’s private sector during that period.
The executive mentioned that the company is not placing a strong emphasis on hiring experienced professionals, and that their overall recruitment strategy remains unchanged. Krithivasan emphasised that fresh graduates typically undergo around nine months of training before they begin working on active projects, while lateral hires can contribute immediately. Hence, future hiring decisions at TCS will be significantly influenced by market demand.
In the results for TCS’s Q4, Sudeep Kunnumal, Chief HR Officer, announced that the company would be implementing annual salary hikes across all job levels, commencing from April 1, 2026.
In the Q4 report, Kunnumal noted, “In Q4, we maintained our commitment to developing a future-ready workforce by significantly bolstering our experienced talent pool and campus recruitment. Establishing an AI-first culture and ensuring our teams are equipped with skills relevant to AI has been a major focus in FY26 and will remain so in FY27, as we work in closer alignment with the changing needs of our clients.”
Furthermore, Krithivasan did not provide insights into any anticipated workforce restructuring despite announcing job cuts affecting about 2% of its total workforce, approximately 12,000 employees, during FY26. He mentioned that employees who continue to perform can look forward to a “successful career” at TCS.
Tata Consultancy Services has reported a 12.12% rise in its net profit for Q4, reaching Rs 13,784 crore, compared to Rs 12,293 crore from the previous year. Profit has also increased by 29% in comparison to the preceding quarter.
