Kochi is Kerala’s main IT and global-services city: Kakkanad, Infopark, and a mix of captives, BPOs and specialist centres such as medical coding.
The CorroHealth episode in 2026 is why Kochi needs its own tracker page. A US healthcare-coding employer locked staff out of Kochi and Kozhikode centres; after state conciliation, about 850 people were recorded as affected and a five-month salary settlement was announced by the labour minister. That is a city-and-state labour event, not a quiet 2% tech trim. Other Kochi employers are more often Indian IT parks and captives whose cuts, if they happen, may never name the city. We will add rows when a source does. If you work in Infopark, do not treat an empty week as “no risk”; treat it as “no public, sourced event yet.”

An event appears here when its location or title contains Kochi (or a local alias such as Bangalore for Bengaluru). We do not allocate a share of a national total to this city unless the source does. Empty weeks mean we have no published, sourced row — not that employers are frozen.
