Ongoing diplomatic tensions between India and Canada may hinder Indian IT companies from finalizing new outsourcing deals with Canadian businesses.

Indian IT firms favour Canada due to its straightforward visa processes and pro-business environment. Canada contributes about 4-5% of revenues for India’s major IT firms.

IT giants like Infosys and Wipro have expanded in Canada, while Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) partners with Canadian entities such as Bombardier and Payments Canada.

At the same time, numerous Canadian companies also operate their Global Capability Centres in India.
