Attention TCS Employees In Pune & Pimpri-Chinchwad: Here's What CEO K Krithivasan Said Amid Buzz Of 12,000 Layoffs – Details Inside

Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) CEO K Krithivasan, in an email to all the employees, said the company is "on a journey to become a future-ready organisation."

"This includes strategic initiatives on multiple fronts, including investing in new-tech areas (AI and Data, Cybersecurity, Cloud, IoT and Enterprise Solutions), entering new markets, deploying AI at scale for our clients and ourselves, deepening our partnerships, creating next-gen delivery and innovation infrastructure, and realigning our workforce model," Krithivasan said.

This comes after news about TCS laying off about 2 per cent or 12,261 employees of its global workforce this year circulated on Sunday.

Addressing this, Krithivasan said this will primarily affect employees "in the middle and the senior grades."

"We understand that this is a challenging time for our colleagues who are likely to be affected. We thank them for their service and will be making all efforts to provide them with appropriate benefits, outplacement, counselling, and support as they transition to new opportunities. Our HR and business leaders will reach out to these associates," he added.

"While this is a difficult decision, it reflects our continued responsibility as an organisation to anticipate future needs and act decisively. We are on a journey to build a stronger TCS for our associates, clients, and all other stakeholders. Let us come together to support each other as we build a future-ready organisation and accelerate our growth momentum," Krithivasan further said.

As of June 30, 2025, TCS's workforce stood at 6,13,069. It increased its workforce by 5,000 employees in the recently concluded April-June quarter.
