infrastructure management (31.2% growth Q-o-Q), assurance or testing (24.8% growth
Q-o-Q), BPO (13.9% growth Q-o-Q), consulting (19.2% growth Q-o-Q), and enterprise

the US. The BFSI vertical grew ~9% Q-o-Q. Notably, this vertical was characterized by
robust double digit sequential offshore growth. The company has indicated that it
witnesses healthy deal flow in this vertical from both Europe (mainly, the UK) and the
US. Notably, convergent commentary from TCS’ peer Infosys, with regards to the BFSI
market in the US, allays concerns that top-tier Indian companies are beginning to see
the impact of the sub-prime difficulties in the US.

TCS Strategy
 Tata Consultancy Services Limited (TCS)

1. TCS is building a solid traction outside Application Development and Maintenance. There
is a growing shift towards Infrastructure Management, testing, BPO, consulting and
enterprise solutions.
2. Less dependence on US (dropped to 50%), more clients from Europe.
3. Client traction in the mid-range bracket has picked up. ($20-50 Million)
4. Focus on near-shoring strategy with centers in Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Uruguay.

TCS Competitor (Infosys):

TCS is an integrated service provider and has started investing in its consultancy division with
target revenue of $650 million by 2009.

Looking at the competitive service offerings and revenues, Infosys is the nearest competitor of
TCS. Infosys revenues are just shy of around billion dollars compared to TCS.

An Infosys product like Finacle is growing in popularity and is giving heads on competition to TCS
BaNCS core banking solution.

Similar to TCS, Infosys has also their consulting division targeted to provide consultancy to
current customer base and new clients.

In the last fiscal year TCS and MBT are the only two companies to crack a billion dollar projects.

global clients.
