Sharekhan analysts believe TCS’s ability to cross-sell makes it well-positioned to capitalize on cost optimization, digital transformation, and developing technological services.
They expect TCS to maintain its strong revenue growth, fueled by an increase in large deal wins over FY25/26, as well as a revival in demand in critical areas such as BFSI. This growth trajectory is intended to mitigate problems in CY24 while capitalizing on emerging opportunities in newer technological services.
