New Delhi, June 3 -- Technology giant Microsoft on Wednesday said Infosys, TCS and Wipro have each expanded Microsoft 365 Copilot deployments to more than 100,000 employees, taking the combined rollout across the three IT services majors beyond 300,000 users in less than six months. The milestone marks one of Microsoft's largest enterprise AI deployments globally and signals a broader shift from AI pilots to enterprise-wide adoption.
The development comes as Microsoft sharpens its focus on owning every layer of the enterprise AI stack-from foundation models and AI agents to workplace applications and cloud infrastructure. At its ongoing Build 2026 developer conference, the company unveiled new proprietary AI models and agent-building capabilities, underscoring its ambition to become the default platform for enterprise AI.
The latest milestone also represents a sharp acceleration from Microsoft's India AI push announced in December 2025. During a visit to Bengaluru, Microsoft Chairman and CEO Satya Nadella unveiled partnerships with Infosys, TCS, Wipro and Cognizant, with each committing to deploy more than 50,000 Microsoft 365 Copilot licences. Less than six months later, Infosys, TCS and Wipro have individually crossed the 100,000-user mark, highlighting how quickly AI adoption is scaling across India's technology services sector.

The announcement positions India among Microsoft's fastest-growing AI markets globally and showcases how some of the world's largest IT services companies are moving beyond experimentation toward what Microsoft describes as "Frontier Firms"-organizations where AI agents work alongside employees across business-critical processes.
"At this level of scale, the impact of AI is no longer measured solely by time saved or productivity gained-it is defined by how organizations operate, compete, and grow," said Judson Althoff, CEO, Microsoft Commercial Business. "Infosys, TCS and Wipro are moving beyond deployment to AI as an operating model, using Microsoft Copilot and agents to translate their unique IQ into better decisions, faster execution and stronger customer outcomes."
The expansion comes amid strong global momentum for Microsoft's AI offerings. The company said seats added during the latest quarter grew more than 250%, taking total paid Microsoft 365 Copilot deployments worldwide to 20 million. The number of customers with deployments exceeding 50,000 users has increased four-fold year-on-year.
For India's $280-billion IT services industry, the rollout signals a broader transition toward AI-led operating models as companies seek productivity gains, faster decision-making and more automated service delivery.
Infosys said it has expanded Microsoft 365 Copilot access to more than 100,000 employees across delivery, engineering and corporate functions, with monthly active usage exceeding 91%. Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director Salil Parekh said the company is integrating AI deeply into its operations through Infosys Topaz.
"At Infosys, we see AI as a transformative force to reimagine enterprise value. The real opportunity with AI lies in how deeply it is embedded into everyday work," Parekh said, adding that the company's collaboration with Microsoft remains an important enabler of AI-led transformation initiatives for clients globally.
TCS has also crossed the 100,000-user mark, with 86% of Copilot-licensed employees actively using AI in their daily work. The company reported productivity improvements of 20-25% in research and content-related tasks, a two-fold increase in insight generation, and a 25-35% reduction in work-cycle times across selected processes.
"At TCS, we have empowered over 100,000 associates with Microsoft 365 Copilot to enhance everyday productivity, elevate collaboration and drive intelligence-led decision-making," said K. Krithivasan, CEO and Managing Director of TCS. "By embedding agentic AI into the flow of work, our employees are redefining how work gets done."
Wipro reported more than 95% monthly active usage among Copilot users, with employees generating approximately 7.5 million prompts every month. The company said the deployment has contributed to savings equivalent to more than 250,000 full-time employee days every quarter. Wipro has also developed over 60 enterprise-grade AI agents and more than 29,000 employee-created agents across the organization.
"At Wipro, we are embedding AI into everyday work to create real enterprise advantage-unlocking productivity, sharpening execution, accelerating innovation and enriching client experience," said Srini Pallia, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director of Wipro. "Our expanded adoption of Microsoft 365 Copilot reflects a deliberate, enterprise-wide approach to AI focused on measurable value."
Puneet Chandok, President, Microsoft India and South Asia, said the scale of adoption demonstrates how leading enterprises are shifting from experimenting with AI to redesigning business operations around it.
"What Infosys, TCS and Wipro are doing is remarkable. They are putting Copilot at the heart of how their teams work-pairing intelligence with trust at a scale only true enterprise leaders can deliver," Chandok said.
According to Microsoft's Work Trend Index 2026, nearly half of Copilot usage globally is now focused on cognitive work such as analysis, problem-solving and creativity. The report found that 58% of users say they are producing work they could not have accomplished a year ago, rising to 80% among advanced users.
With Infosys, TCS and Wipro moving from large-scale deployments to enterprise-wide AI operations, India is increasingly emerging as a proving ground for Microsoft's vision of an AI-first workplace-one where human workers and AI agents operate together as part of the same digital workforce.
