Just to clarify, TCS seems to only have 500,000 people employed, the whole DOD has roughly 2.86 million as of 2018, of them 100,000 are software developers. I don't think that the entirety of TCS is made up of software developers.

Obviously entirety of 500,000 couldn't be SW developers, But definitely >100,000 are in IT and could be in U.S. alone.

>TCS Recognized as the #1 Top Employer in the United States for 2020[1]

>more than 327,000 employees were trained on multiple new technologies, and over 404,000 trained on Agile methods.

They recruit thousands every year from Engineering colleges in India specifically for SW role. Have been doing that for at least two decades. Their target for FY22 is 40,000 freshers.

It's late in India otherwise I could get the exact figures of IT employees in TCS as every Engineer here knows someone who is working in TCS be it Computer Science or Civil Engineer or even Bio Tech(All of them go to work in IT there).
