Hexaware Technologies Limited has clarified that the recent hike in H-1B visa fees announced by the United States will have no significant impact on its operations or financials.
In a stock exchange filing dated September 22, 2025, the company said it has steadily reduced its dependency on H-1B filings over the past few years. Notably, Hexaware did not make any fresh applications under the H-1B cap in April 2025. “Based on our current assessment, the impact on the Company is expected to be immaterial,” the filing stated.
The company added that its strategy of focusing on localization and hiring local talent in key markets has helped mitigate risks from regulatory shifts. Hexaware said it remains agile in evolving global talent deployment strategies, ensuring continuity of client services and resilience in its operating model.
The update comes against the backdrop of US President Donald Trump’s proclamation that imposed a $100,000 fee on H-1B visa petitions, significantly raising the cost burden for Indian IT companies. While the move is expected to affect several firms in the sector, Hexaware’s minimal reliance on fresh H-1B filings provides it with a buffer against disruption.
