Google Trims HCLTech Deal by $50 Million

Google has reduced its contract value with HCLTech by $50 million as part of a broader vendor consolidation strategy driven by its internal AI development push.

The move will result in the redeployment of approximately 1,000 HCLTech staffers who were previously assigned to Google projects.

This reduction highlights the ongoing challenges for Indian IT firms as major global clients optimize their budgets and shift focus toward proprietary AI technologies.
