Hello guys, I also worked in TCS for 3 years. I started approaching TCS HR on June2016. Then I approached my team lead to send an email regarding the letter to HR. HR didn't consider it. Approached my project lead luckily who got promoted to Group lead position. He requested them to provide the skill certificate. Then his email sent to ISU head or corporate head. They accepted because it came from Group lead. Finally, I got the skill letter in TCS format on Sep 2016. But the letter didn't mention information such as number of hours/week, and all designations during my tenure . As a proof, I attached the emails from the HR for missing details requested by CIC, relieving letter, Pay slips copies, and skill letter.
Try to contact your Project lead or Group lead or ISU head. But only Group lead or ISU head has the authority to approve it.
Hope this helps you.
You needn't have struggled this much. They have started issuing skill letters officially long back, and I got one too for a different purpose. You just need to email the responsibilities corporate.exempverification@tcs.com id, and they would give a format document along with last supervisor email id. The document needs to be filled and sent for the last supervisor approval keeping corporate.exempverification id in CC. Once he gives an email approval, TCS will issue the responsibilities in the letter head.

You could also google this forum and find that plenty of people have got that. Many of my friends have got them too. I am not sure why HR dragged so much for you. You possibly ended up with a HR without awareness on this policy!
But all this works only if someone has resigned from TCS. I am not sure what happens if someone is working and requests for this letter.
Now the headache is that they issue this letter for the resigned employees ONLY ONCE. And since I got the letter for a different purpose (in which responsibilities are too technical and would be difficult to comprehend and relate to my NOC), I am now in bit of fix without knowing how to proceed next. I am thinking of a supervisor letter, but I am clueless on what justification I need to give for not getting the letter in company letter head (as I cannot say non-issuance policy or HR refusal).
