Sonata Software has responded to the U.S. Government's September 19, 2025 Proclamation and September 20, 2025 Memorandum, which introduced a one-time fee of US$100,000 per new H-1B visa petition. The company states the impact on its business will be minimal, noting that its H-1B visa utilization is not material and that existing deployed H-1B employees and contractors remain unaffected. Sonata highlighted its continued investments in workforce planning, global mobility, local hiring, and expansion of local and nearshore delivery centers as safeguards for uninterrupted client service. The company will continue monitoring regulatory developments and provide further updates if needed.
This is a reassuring disclosure for shareholders — Sonata is signaling that the new U.S. H-1B fee is unlikely to materially hurt its financials or delivery capabilities, which may help limit any negative stock reaction to the broader visa policy news affecting Indian IT peers.
