TCS Q1 Results Today: Date, Time, Dividend News, Other Key Updates To Watch Out For
TCS Q1 Results FY26: TCS is set to declare its audited financial results for the quarter ended June 30, and interim dividend on Thursday, July 10
TCS Q1 Results FY26: IT bellwether Tata Consultancy Services Ltd (TCS) is set to declare its audited standalone and consolidated financial results for the quarter ended June 30, and interim dividend for FY26 today.
'Tata Consultancy Services Limited will announce its results for the first quarter of FY 2026, ended June 30, 2025, on Thursday, July 10, 2025, after-market trading hours," it said in a regulatory filing. After the release of the Q1 numbers, the leadership team will address a press conference at 5:30 pm on the same date.
IT analysts tracking Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) expect a muted performance in the June 2025 quarter (Q1FY26), largely due to a ramp-down in the BSNL project, modest growth in developed markets, and weakness in key verticals like retail and manufacturing. The Street will closely watch for management commentary around client budgets, margin levers, and the overall demand outlook.
TCS Q1 Earnings FY26: What To Expect?
For the quarter, most brokerages are projecting low single-digit growth, or even a slight decline in revenue and profit. Antique Stock Broking expects a 0.6% decline in revenue in constant currency (CC) terms, although it estimates a 1% QoQ growth in dollar terms, supported by a 160 basis point cross-currency tailwind. The brokerage also expects EBIT margins to remain flat at 24.2% and forecasts deal wins between $9–10 billion.
Nuvama is slightly more conservative, projecting revenue of Rs 64,600 crore (up 3.2% YoY) and net profit of Rs 12,214 crore (up 1.5%). Kotak Institutional Equities expects a 0.4% sequential decline in CC revenue, with developed market growth at a modest 0.3%, entirely offset by a drop in BSNL-related revenue.
Kotak also pointed out additional factors to monitor, including tariff-related demand disruption in verticals like retail and manufacturing, weak growth trends in developed markets, and any client insourcing trends. Other key areas of investor focus include the role of Global Capability Centres (GCCs), the pace of enterprise GenAI adoption and its deflationary effects, and the company's strategy to protect or grow margins.
TCS' deal pipeline continues to show strength, with analysts projecting total contract value (TCV) of $8–10 billion in Q1. Key wins include AI and digital transformation deals with Schneider Electric, Marathon de Paris, ICICI Securities, Oman's Dhofar Insurance, Virgin Atlantic, and an extension of the BSNL contract.
Dividend Declaration Expected Today
Meanwhile, TCS is expected to announce an interim dividend today, with the record date set as July 16, 2025. Eligible shareholders on that date will receive the dividend if it is declared.
TCS has maintained a consistent and generous dividend track record, distributing Rs 314 per share over the last three fiscal years. Despite a relatively modest 5% rise in the stock over this period, the additional 9% from dividends takes total investor returns to 14%.
In FY2022–23, the company paid Rs 115 per share, including a Rs 67 special dividend and a Rs 24 final dividend. In FY2023–24, it paid Rs 73 per share across interim and final payouts. Most recently, in FY2024–25, TCS distributed Rs 126 per share, including a Rs 66 special dividend and a Rs 30 final payout. The company continues to be a reliable cash generator for the Tata Group and a top dividend payer on Dalal Street.

Market drifts lower amid tariff jitters, Q1 earnings season key to lift sentiment
Markets drifted lower during the week and lost over a per cent, primarily pressured by the lingering uncertainty surrounding global tariffs and a disappointing start to the earnings season, analysts said on Saturday. While the tone remained largely stable in the first three sessions, profit booking in the final sessions dragged the indices lower. Eventually, both the Nifty and Sensex settled near their weekly lows at 25,149.85 and 82,500.47, respectively. According to Ajit Mishra–SVP, Research, Religare Broking Ltd., sentiment weakened amid heightened global trade tensions following US President Donald Trump's renewed tariff threats on Canada and other key partners. 'Although there were expectations of an interim trade deal between the US and India, the lack of clarity kept risk appetite in check. Additionally, a weak start to the Q1 earnings season — especially after IT major TCS reported below-par results — added pressure to the markets in the final session,' he mentioned. Consumption-oriented sectors such as FMCG and discretionary stocks experienced selective buying, supported by signs of urban demand revival and improving margins. A backdrop of easing inflation, declining interest rates, and a favourable monsoon contributed to the overall positive undertone. 'Broader indices slipped into negative territory due to a lack of triggers to sustain current premium valuations and uninspiring results from a key IT bellwether, which raised concerns over FY26 earnings estimates,' said Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Investments Limited. As Q1 FY26 earnings unfold, investors are closely monitoring guidance on margins and sector dynamics. Looking ahead, the earnings season will be in full focus. A packed calendar includes results from HCL Tech, Tech Mahindra, Axis Bank, ICICI Bank, Wipro, JSW Steel, L&T Finance, and HDFC Bank, among others. On the macroeconomic front, participants will closely track the WPI and CPI inflation data scheduled for July 14 for further cues on the economy. Apart from these, the trend in FII flows and movement in crude oil prices will also remain on traders' radar, said market watchers. Globally, markets will watch for any updates related to trade negotiations and tariffs, along with key economic data releases such as U.S. inflation and 'We anticipate a consolidation phase in the Nifty index with a negative bias in the near term, following the recent fall. Volatility is expected to persist amid global uncertainties and the unfolding earnings season. Traders are advised to maintain a stock-specific approach, focusing on companies with strong earnings and relative strength,' said Mishra.

After Trapit Bansal, Meta hires ex-Apple AI genius for record-breaking Rs 16700000000 job offer, his name is.., will work as..
After making headlines with a record-breaking salary with its job offer of Rs 854 crore to young tech talent Trapit Bansal, Meta Platforms Inc. has now made another splash with another significant hire. According to a Bloomberg report citing those familiar with the deal, Meta recruited Ruoming Pang, the former head of Apple's AI models team, for more than $200 million to join its Superintelligence Team. Converting into Indian currency, Pang's deal translates to over Rs 1,600 crore. Meta is paying out a lot in bonuses, stock bonuses, and long-term contracts to attract some of the best talent from firms such as Apple, OpenAI, and Google. This is a sign of how seriously these tech giants are taking the battle for the best AI talent. Ruoming Pang, who previously led Apple's AI models team, is the most recent big recruit for Meta's Superintelligence group, which is building advanced AI that can perform tasks as well or better than humans. Pang's pay package is one of the largest in history for a tech engineer, rivaling top CEO's compensation packages. Apple chose not to match Meta's offer, which illustrates how the pursuit of AI talent is changing how firms approach recruiting in technology. Ruoming Pang is an eminent AI researcher and engineer who has significantly impacted the future of AI at leading technology companies. He has a PhD from Princeton University and worked for Google on notable AI projects such as the Lingvo speech framework and Zanzibar, a global authorization system used by all of Google's services. Ruoming Pang began working at Apple in 2021 and quickly progressed to lead the Foundation Models team. During his tenure, the team was responsible for innovative and disruptive work like Genmoji, personalized on-device AI notifications, and a greatly enhanced Siri. Overseeing more than 100 engineers working on large language models and generative AI, he played a central role in driving Apple's ambitious yet low-key AI initiatives. Meta has been working to recruit the top AI talent from technology companies like Apple, Google, and OpenAI, and Ruoming Pang is one of their most valuable new hires to date. According to industry sources, Apple made no effort to counter Pang away from Meta which is said to exceed the annual compensation of Apple CEO Tim Cook. According to Ruoming Pang's educational qualification, he studied BS, Computer Science from Shanghai Jiao Tong University. In 2000, he completed his Master's degree, Computer Science from the University of Southern California. Additionally, he completed his PhD, Computer Science at Princeton University.

Indian-Origin Couple Living In US Wonders If Rs 25 Crore Is Enough To Retire In India, Internet Reacts
The dream of moving abroad for a better life has fuelled the ambitions of countless Indians, but is the grass really greener on the other side? A young Indian couple, who chased that dream all the way to the US, is now seeking Reddit's advice on whether they should move back to India. The couple, who have been living in the States for over 15 years and are parents to a young child, also inquired how much is enough to retire in India for a family of three. "We are in our mid 30s and we have one small kid. We've been living in the US for about 15 years. With all the things happening here in tech and in country, we're contemplating moving back to India," the couple wrote in the post titled, "What would be good numbers to move to India and retire". "We will probably take a break for some time and will find work later depending on our interests but we do not want to let it take over our lives. So, whats a good number to retire early in India and live a comfortable life while raising a child," they asked. What would be good numbers to move to India and retire by u/Secure-Salt-5461 in returnToIndia In the comments section, the original poster (OP) said that they have about $3 million (approximately Rs 25 crore) in assets. While the user and their partner are on a visa, they shared that their child is a US citizen. Redditors were quick to react to the post. While some said $3 million was enough to survive in any Indian city, others said that there were several factors in play, including the place of residence and the lifestyle they have. "Several factors in play. From the place you choose to kind of lifestyle you maintain n your spending habits. If u live in tier 2 smart/well developed city your standard expenses wont go beyond 75k/INR that includes rental, food n some needy things. If u own a house, cost will come down. If ur kid studies in a good standard school, add 30-50k per month on top. As a net net, 2 laks per month would be more than sufficient if u really want a standard+ life. If u find some work there after 12/24/36 months, u will get equal pay per month or more to offset this cost n help you compound to last forever," one user explained. "Depends on the lifestyle you 3 want to live. You could need as little as $50k or as much as $10M plus," said another. "I recently spent some extended amount of time in India (bangalore specifically). Make no mistake OP, India is quite expensive esp if you want a life closer to the US. Some of the premier gated communities in bangalore like Adarsh, brigade or prestige which probably have a US suburban type feel will easily cost 5cr above for 2000sqft and above. Of course, you could live cheaper, but then you mentioned not having to pinch pennies.. :) So is 3M enough? Only you can answer that," commented a third user.
