Mphasis anticipates no significant financial impact from the new US H1B visa fee implementation. The company highlights its low H1B filing volume and strategic shift towards increased local hiring and AI-driven solutions. Mphasis has only had approximately 130 new H1B filings in 2025, with 78 new approvals. This proactive approach ensures minimal disruption to operations and continued focus on client requirements.
H1B Visa Fee Impact
Mphasis has assessed the potential impact of the recent U.S. proclamation regarding H-1B visa applications, specifically the implementation of a US$ 100,000 one-time fee for each new H1B visa petition.
Minimal Financial Impact Foreseen
The company anticipates that this fee increase will not significantly affect its financial performance or operations. This assessment is based on Mphasis’ relatively low volume of H1B filings compared to its overall U.S. employee base. In calendar year 2025, Mphasis had approximately 130 new filings, of which 78 were approved.
Strategic Shift and System Resiliency
Mphasis emphasizes its proactive strategy of building system resiliency through AI-led deals. This includes a focus on increased local hiring within the U.S., strategic acquisitions, and partnerships to reduce its reliance on visas. This approach ensures that Mphasis remains fully staffed to meet all existing client requirements while operating in a business-as-usual manner. The company continues to refine its approach to solve challenges.
