Microsoft will offer employees in India a standard severance package, including one month of base salary for each completed year of service, health insurance and career transition services, as part of its voluntary retirement programme, the company said.

Microsoft India employees selected for the voluntary retirement scheme must decide by December 1, the company said.

While the company did not share details of the number of employees impacted in India, a spokesperson said Microsoft continues to “invest in India’s talent and technology ecosystem and is backing the country’s AI ambitions with $20.5 billion in committed investment between 2025 and 2029 across cloud and AI infrastructure, skilling and operations”.

“We are also on track to fulfil our commitment of equipping 20 million people across India with AI skills by 2030,” the spokesperson said.

Earlier on Monday, the company offered a voluntary exit scheme to nearly 60,000 employees globally, or roughly 25 per cent of its 223,000-strong workforce.
