Although the IT services giant hasn’t disclosed any significant deals in the first quarter of January-March, it successfully secured a series of multi-year, multi-million-dollar contracts from Aviva, Ramboll, and the Central Bank in the US.
It’s been a remarkable year for TCS. Amidst a challenging business landscape marked by delayed deal closures, ongoing macroeconomic hurdles, and inflationary pressures, TCS navigated significant changes. These included appointing a new CEO, implementing structural transformations, expanding into new sectors such as cloud and AI, and prioritising AI in identity solutions.
TCS’ plans for hiring in FY25 will be watched by investors. Though in FY24 there were delays in campus hiring, the company has already announced fresher hiring tests for FY25.
The Tata group company’s Q4 revenue growth would be aided by sustained winning of deal, ramp-up of large deals, including BSNL, and recovery in manufacturing and BFSI verticals.
