Tata Consultancy Services Ltd., Asia’s largest software-services provider, agreed to pay $29.8 million to settle a wage dispute in California with workers who were sent to work in the U.S. from India.

Terms of the settlement are described in a Feb. 21 filing with U.S. District Judge Claudia Wilken in Oakland, California. The judge in April certified the case as a class, or group, lawsuit for all non-U.S. citizens employed by Tata in California from Feb. 14, 2002, to June 30, 2005.
