Originally a captive provider to other Tata Group entities, today it is an IT, consulting, services and BPO organization that forms part of The Tata Group, India’s largest private business conglomerate. TCS has grown rapidly throughout its 48-year history.
In 1973 it pioneered offshore operations when it began activity in the U.S. Growth in the 1980s and 1990s was due to a number of factors such as the U.S. embracing outsourcing and the Y2K build-up.
