CRS Reports Sharp Decline in H-1B Registrations for TCS and Infosys

The Congressional Research Service reported that H-1B cap registrations for Infosys and Tata Consultancy Services fell in FY2027. Infosys recorded 759 registrations, a 91% decline from 8,886 in FY2026, while Tata Consultancy Services registered 284, down 95% from 5,955. The annual H-1B cap is 65,000 workers, and the registration window for FY2027 ran from March 4 to March 19, 2026.

The decline in registrations for major technology services firms indicates a sharp shift in the ability of these companies to secure foreign talent through the H-1B process. These companies rely on these registrations to file petitions for specialized workers, which impacts their operational capacity and staffing models.
