This will have far-reaching consequences, not just for India's IT companies but also the industries that support them, from real estate to hospitality. India's IT industry employs a quarter of the million people in the organised private workforce.

And it has been an engine for economic growth in cities such as Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Pune, where TCS, Infosys, Wipro and others have built huge campuses for their offices. TCS alone has offices in locations spanning 50 countries. The company says it's yet to explore the logistics of hybrid work - what happens to its physical assets such as office buildings, or will it, like Google, introduce pay cuts for staff who opt to work from home permanently.

But remote working is likely to pose a grave risk to businesses like commercial real estate business. And as firms shutter workplaces, businesses dependent on the office economy - food and beverage, hospitality, retail and maintenance - are also expected to suffer.

The software industry spurred massive indirect employment in all of these sectors. Mr Bohra ran food courts across IT parks in the western state of Maharashtra until the pandemic closed his business. In , 96 per cent of TCS staff shifted to remote working and the company is planning to not get the employees back to offices. The byproduct of the COVID pandemic, work-from-home, is ending soon and many software and IT companies are calling back their employees to the office.

The announcement comes in the backdrop that Wipro has vaccinated around 35, employees. The company has 2 lakh employees currently. Moreover, country's largest software company Tata Consultancy Services TCS is hoping that its over 5 lakh employees may return to the office once they are vaccinated against the novel coronavirus by September this year.

Commenting on the quarterly results of Q1FY22, company's chief of global human resources Milind Lakkad stated, " In less than two months, over half a million associates and family members and over 70 percent of our associates have been vaccinated, and we are on track to vaccinate all TCSers and families by September. Our thoughts are with the families who suffered personal loss despite our best efforts.

I want to acknowledge the temperament and personality of our associates who stood by each other in these stressful times. Rival company, Infosys' COO U B Pravin Rao answered several questions including that of resuming work from office from more employees during press conference post Q1 results.
