Mumbai, Dec 17: Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) said on Wednesday, Dec 17 that it has plans to hire around 3,500 people in China over the next four years to grow its business there and tap the country's large pool of engineers.

India's largest IT firm also said it expects Asian revenues will grow next year despite the economic slowdown and retrenchments by the region's banks, due to its large pipeline of existing projects.

"We have 1,300 people in China at the moment in four centres and we are growing it... We plan to have 5,000 people in four years," Girija Pande, who heads TCS Asia Pacific operations outside India, told Reuters in an interview.
