The Filing Footprint Is Bigger Than One Legal Name

Tech Mahindra needs to be read through its public employer-name boundary: Tech Mahindra (Americas) Inc. plus Tech Mahindra Technologies, Tech Mahindra Cerium Systems, and Tech Mahindra Network Services employer-name variants in the DOL records.

Across FY2020 through FY2025, those rows add up to 12,626 Labor Condition Applications. Including the FY2026 partial-year rows, the total reaches 12,744. FY2025 alone accounts for 1,398 LCA filings.

The USCIS series shown here totals 7,725 approvals across the available approval rows. Where FY2025 rows are initial approvals only, the page labels them that way. LCA filings are not headcount, hired workers, or proof that a specific American worker was replaced.

The Employer Boundary Drives the Count

Tech Mahindra (Americas), Inc is the largest filing name, but the full public footprint depends on combining the affiliated employer rows used for this page.

The peak year in the full-year series is FY2021, with 3,459 filings. FY2026 currently shows 118 rows and should be read as a partial-year value, not as a final decline.

Workforce Share Not Used
Metric intentionally suppressed

This site no longer charts H-1B filings as a share of workforce. The ratio can blur U.S. employees, global employees, contractors, and offshore delivery headcount into one denominator.

Rows with a disclosed U.S.-employee denominator available here: 0. The analysis now uses filings, approvals, wage, worksite, and title concentration instead.

Avg H-1B Salary vs BLS Market Rate

Workforce Context, Kept in Bounds

Tech Mahindra was the target of a proposed class action, Williams v. Tech Mahindra (Americas) Inc., alleging the company discriminated against non-South Asian workers and overstated its H-1B needs, citing 2,553 approved H-1B petitions in a single year. U.S. District Judge Michael A. Shipp dismissed the case on February 28, 2022 on timeliness grounds, without any finding on the merits. The filing pattern the suit described is visible in this page's data: the top job title in the LCA rows is computer programmer, a commodity role, not a specialty.

The public workforce story belongs next to the filing volume, but it does not turn every LCA into a replacement claim.

The Williams suit was dismissed on procedural grounds and no court found liability. The filing volumes and role mix on this page are from public DOL records and stand on their own.

The Labor-Market Signal Is in the Job Mix

The leading occupation is Computer Systems Analysts, and the leading job title is Computer Programmer; those roles show what part of the labor market the filings reach.

For FY2025, the average H-1B wage in the filtered salary extract is $111,534, compared with an average prevailing-wage benchmark of $100,924. That is a $10,610 spread over the legal wage floor.

Green Cards Add the Long-Term Tie

The PERM layer adds 294 labor-certification cases from FY2020 through FY2025, including 48 in FY2025.

PERM records are a different process from H-1B petitions, but they matter because the sponsorship timeline can tie a worker to an employer for years.

  • LCA filings and salary data: DOL OFLC disclosure rows mapped by the employer-name boundary used for this investigation.
  • H-1B approvals: USCIS H-1B Employer Data Hub CSV rows for FY2020-FY2023, plus FY2025 hub initial approvals where available.
  • PERM data: DOL OFLC PERM disclosure rows mapped with the same employer-name boundary.
  • Williams v. Tech Mahindra (Americas) Inc., dismissed February 28, 2022 (D.N.J., Judge Michael A. Shipp); case coverage via Bloomberg Law and court records.

Caveat: LCA filings are not H-1B petitions or hired workers. FY2025 USCIS hub rows are initial approvals only, so denial rates are not computed for those rows.
