BUY : TCS-EQ( TCS ) [11536]

by

India’s Tech Titan Reinvented for the AI Age

TCS offers a solid long-term investment case, supported by its trusted client relationships, global presence, and strategic focus on AI-driven transformation. By embedding AI across its service lines and reimagining operations through its “Human+AI” model, the company is both future-proofing its business and driving structural margin improvements. Its consistent success in securing large, mission-critical deals highlights its strong execution, credibility, and cross-industry expertise. As enterprises increasingly adopt digital and AI solutions, TCS’s robust delivery capabilities, skilled workforce, and proactive investments in emerging technologies position it well for sustained growth, even amid short-term macroeconomic pressures.

We initiate buy with price target ₹3900

We recommend TCS as a BUY, backed by its industry-leading execution, strong deal momentum, and structural
transformation toward AI-led service delivery. With a $39.4 billion TCV in FY25 and expanding operating margins (~24.4% in Q1 FY26), TCS remains one of the most resilient and globally diversified IT firms. Its deep client relationships and long-standing trust ensure predictable revenue visibility. The company’s leaner, scalable cost structure
driven by automation and productivity unlocks further margin upside. We value TCS at 14x FY27E BVPS, reflecting its premium positioning, robust balance sheet, and consistent return generation. Key risks include persistent macro uncertainties in the US and Europe, and delayed ramp-up of large deals
