Innodata Lays Off Nearly 550 Employees in India Amid Business Assignment Ramp-DownPreviousNext

Innodata India Pvt Ltd laid off nearly 550 employees abruptly without prior notice, deactivating their system access and sending termination emails during the workday. Similar job cuts were reported in the Philippines. The layoffs were attributed to a ramp-down of a business assignment, not individual performance. Following the news, Innodata's shares fell sharply on Nasdaq amid concerns over the company's revenue outlook and customer concentration.
