On the reaction day the stock moved 3.4 pts more than Nifty 100 and 3.1 pts more than its Computers - Software & Consulting peers, over the same two closes: a difference in percentage points, not a measure of what the filing did.

TCS has responded to a US government announcement on the Permanent Labor Certification Program (PERM), stating it will comply with any Department of Labor directive. The company highlighted its local US hiring strategy across 31 offices and delivery centers, including plans to add 15,000 employees over five years. Since PERM applications were in single digits in the past two years, TCS does not expect the program suspension to materially impact its workforce strategy or customer engagements.
Minimal direct impact expected; reinforces its reliance on local US hiring over foreign worker visas.
