Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) refuted claims of bias when it dismissed workers in the US. The company is being investigated by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission over claims of discrimination against U.S. workers. The claims were made by former workers, the majority of whom are over 40 and of South Asian descent, according to a Bloomberg report. According to the 2023 complaints, these employees were singled out during layoffs, but their Indian counterparts, some of whom are on H1-B visas, were left unharmed.

The IT outsourcing behemoth referred to the discrimination claims as "meritless and misleading," asserting that TCS is a "equal opportunity employer."

According to a statement from the company, TCS has a solid reputation as an equal opportunity employer in the US and upholds the highest standards of ethics and values in all aspects of its business.

The IT giant's fourth-quarter consolidated net profit dropped to Rs 12,293 crore, a nearly 2% year-over-year decline.

However, operations increased from Rs 61,237 crore to Rs 64,479 crore in the quarter that ended in March 2025, a 5.3 per cent year-over-year increase.
