India’s largest IT services company Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) on July 10 reported $9.4 billion in total contract value (TCV) for the quarter ended June 30, beating Street estimates as deal closures remain robust despite macro challenges.
The company managed to beat the analyst estimates of $8-9 billion in deal wins in Q1, seeing positive year-on-year growth in constant currency in banking, financial services and insurance (BFSI) and energy, resources and utilities, technology & services verticals.
To be sure, rest of the other verticals including manufacturing, life sciences & healthcare, and consumer business declined.
The TCV for the quarter was 13.25 percent higher than the 8.3 billion reported in the year-ago period and was down almost 23 percent from the previous quarter, the company said on July 10.
