H1B visa dependence lowered: Infosys confident of resilient business model

Days after HCLTech said it has lowered reliance on H1B visas, Infosys on Thursday reported a significant decrease in its dependence on this visa category and exuded confidence in its "resilient" operational model. "Over the years, our dependence on H1B visas has reduced significantly.

Within that, our near shore has increased significantly. "Within the US-onsite population that we have, our H1 independent folks are now at 60 plus percentage.

HCLTech not dependent on H1B, new US regime will hardly impact biz: Exec

The new regime in the US is unlikely to affect the business of Indian IT company HCLTech as it is very less dependent on H1B visas, a senior company executive said. "About 80 per cent of our people in the US are all locals, so our dependence on the H1B is one of the least in the industry. And it is not just now if I look back over the last 4 odd years, we have been pretty locally self-sufficient. "And that reflects in the number of H1Bs that we go through every year. It ranges between 500-1,000 in a year max...so it is minimal dependence," said Ramachandran Sundararajan, Chief People Officer, HCLTech.
