Mr Ratan Tata. It articulates the Group's values and ideals that guide and govern
the conduct of our companies as well as our colleagues in all matters relating to
business. Today, the Code is a bed rock on which we base our individual, as well
as leadership commitments to core Tata values.
The Tata Code of Conduct outlines our commitment to each of our stakeholders,

are sometimes faced with business dilemmas that leave us at ethical crossroads. The
Code is also dynamic in that it has been periodically refreshed in order to remain
contemporary and contextual to the changes in law and regulations. However it
remains unaltered at its core.
Our stellar reputation and success as a business entity has been defined by the
powerful commitment and adherence to the core values and principles expressed in

ABOUT COMPANIES HR POLICIES
TCS with respect to human resource management, the company is doing good
in practicing Pfeiffer’s seven practices and the company is making huge efforts
in delivering various methods and processes in increasing growth of the
organization.
Page 20 of 55
3.2 HR Practices in TCS:-
Employment/Job Security:
TCS is a good base to work at, especially for fresher’s because they find it easy to
work as they are given good opportunities under comfortable and cosy environment.
Working in TCS, it feels like working in a government organization. Employees get
high job security and fear less for losing the job as this company has low rate of job
removal even during recession. The company provides further opportunity to
employees who perform low in order to improve by offering learning and enhancing
programs.
Compared to other IT companies, TCS accounts for lowest employee turnover rate.
This is because most of the employees stay employed with the company for a long
period of time as they find their job not only comfortable but also secured. The
environment is very friendly and the company has a plan to improve performance
of employees who face problems regarding understanding of processes. TCS aims
in both personality and career development which is very advantageous for the
improvement of employees’ skills and knowledge. The HR practices followed by
this company are determined in understanding people's ability for managing them
right from sourcing to deployment which means in regards to scalability.
The employees working in this organization feel very secure because they are given
long periods to work where they have fixed contracts and have flexibility to work
in shifts. Ambitious employees are given chance to study overseas where they are
provided with visas and long-term leaves. All employees sign a contract while
starting to work with a company which will last for a period of two years and after
that they are considered as permanent workers.
Selective Hiring:-
Human resource plan is required by the firm which is prepared according to the
firm's processes. Hiring of candidates is the most important task to be done in a
procedural manner for selecting the best candidates among many applicants as
Pfeiffer described clearly that recruitment of right people is to be done firstly for
Page 21 of 55
obtaining profits. In today's management, this is known as identification of talent
and acquisition. Companies have moved from traditional recruitment and practices
of selection towards online practices like interviews over telephone. In face-to-face
recruitment, the selection department conducts personal interviews where salary
packages are discussed along with many other important things.
TCS recruitment process is based on hiring policy which includes the mix of
fresh and experienced candidates.
Fresh Candidates - They are recruited and selected from academic institutions
where TCS has links with these institutions which is considered as a critical
relationship. Through communication with placement officers and fairs conducted,
a large number of candidates get attracted to apply.
Candidates are attracted to apply for positions through sources like advertisements
through websites and job portals, placement fairs, agencies, TCS data bank that is
done through combining the sourcing of resumes. Recruitment is also done locally
from geographical areas that the company operates.
Academics - All candidates applying to TCS are required to submit copies of their
academics right from their schooling to graduation or higher along with mark sheets
obtained in each level of their study. The official screening these applications would
then decide on forwarding the applications to further processing evaluating the
requirements of the position.
Page 22 of 55
experience and performance. They are also checked on submission of release letters
and pay slips obtained from previous employers.
TCS assigns employees to work as a team or group in order to carry out processes
in a particular project. Each such team is given information regarding the
requirements needed to fulfil their work so that they can put efforts and use tools to
manage their work in a sequential manner. Each team is set a team leader who takes
care of the entire team and manages them to get the outcome. Some teams are
interlinked with each other where the team leads of each team interact with one
another and shares information for helping each other. Finally all the team leads
passes on their work to the project leader. This improves work continuity and flow
is carried out efficiently throughout the work flow.
During the training period, the fresher’s are assigned into group of two members
who work together and share information in order to accomplish work assigned to
them. This environment is created because the employees should be pre-moulded
to work and share in a group when they actually come to the work place.
There is diversity of work place with respect to culture, nationality; language is seen
widely in TCS. It is regarded as a common place to work for all such diversities
without any differences or attitudes. Cultural potpourri is promoted where people
from different backgrounds, cultures and geographies meet together to work on
common issue. TCS follows an open door policy where culture is open for everyone
and anyone can involve working in a team to play an important role. Global family
identity to support and encourage every employee and bring employees together
like a family.
Page 23 of 55
High Pay Contingent on Company Performance:-
Most of the companies do not focus much on acquiring resources but their main
concern is to utilize these resources in a profitable manner by achieving this through
employee's potential. Today, TCS is the best employer who has a structure for
compensation having only 5% of its pay with respect to performance. TCS is a
company that makes its employees work in a team to evaluate to decide on their pay
as a team but not individually. This does a lot of benefit as it does not possesses any
rivalry among the team members. Each such team is formed on the basis of trust,
co-ordination, co-operation, dependence among employees, spirit in the team etc.
These qualities cannot be maintained if an individual is greedy to discuss and share
in a team. Rather he/she should be concerned for the ultimate success of the team.
This is the main reason for TCS to follow such structures over compensation. So,
the reason for the success of employees’ satisfaction lies for the high compensation
structure. It follows the principle of good harnessing the potential of employees in
the company.
Extensive Training:-
Training in TCS starts immediately on the first day of join in the organization which
continues for a period of three months. Training is given throughout the entire
period of work in the company, that is, from the training period till the end date of
work in TCS. Training is also imparted to the employees whenever new techniques
or platforms are introduced at any point of time while working in a project or at the
start of the project.
Page 24 of 55
Continuous Learning Program (CLP) - This is designed for the growth of
associates where learning and sharing is the main value. These programs come from
needs of the project, strategically business, technology and direction of individual
aspirations and access through domains, processes and soft skills.
TCS visions to equip all its employees with proper resources so that they all work
as a family irrespective of position, salary, region, sex and status. Every individual
is given an equal opportunity to develop themselves and share views and ideas.
They are allowed to make innovative designs and work on research right from the
first day of work. Everyone is supposed to follow a discipline throughout the work
floor whether it a starter or a manager. It is required for every employee to be formal
and swipe a unique identity card every day to indicate their presence.
All the employees are required to learn behavioural manners like dinning, greeting
manners and can have the freedom of enquiry from their respective supervisors. The
junior employees have a privilege to communicate directly with the mangers in case
of any position discrimination practice shown by their seniors.
While working in a team TCS ensures that the team leader of every team should
manage the team in such a way that there should not be persistence of attitudes
between the team workers. Every team member is treated the same way and
Page 25 of 55
appreciated for outstanding performances. The team leader encourages and
motivates team members to support among themselves so that they can achieve their
target through co-operation.
Sharing of Information:-
TCS supports a portal where people can communicate each other to share
information. This is done through a chat application called "same time" where
people across the company chat and share information with each other instantly.
Information sharing could be done only through emails to communicate with each
other which is TCS domain enabled. Moreover, access is limited only within ODC
(Offshore Development Centre) where people work for the same project in
distinctive teams. The associates are not given access to this outside the work floor.

4.5 RATIO ANALYSIS:-
Liquidity ratio:-
1) Current ratio:-
Current ratios measure current liquidity of the company.
Interpretation:- Current ratio of the company is less than 2, so the company is not
more liquid. And company may not be using its current asset efficiently. And also
indicates problems in working capital management. In the above table see that
current ratio of last 3 year is less than 2 i.e. in 2020it is 1.10, 2019 current ratio is
1.62 and in 2018 it is 1.52. After 2017 current ratio is declining so short term debt
is increases of the company.
2) Acid-test ratio:-
Acid-test ratios also known as quick ratio. In it compares company’s most short
term assets to its short term liabilities to see, short term debt.
Page 36 of 55
Interpretation:- If the quick ratio is above 1 that its considered good. When quick
ratio of the company is higher than 1 than company experiencing top line growth,
quickly converting receivables into cash. And easily cover its financial change. In
the year 2020, 2019 and 2018 quick ratio is less than 1. So it is not good for the
company.
3) Cash Ratio:-
The cash ratio is a liquidity measure that shows a company's ability to cover its
short-term obligations using only cash and cash equivalents.
The cash ratio is derived by adding a company's total reserves of cash and near-cash
securities and dividing that sum by its total current liabilities.
The cash ratio is more conservative than other liquidity ratios because it only
considers a company's most liquid resources.
Interpretation:- It is seen from the above table that during the year 2018,
the cash ratio was 0.23. In 2019, it was 0.42 and in 2020, it was 0.15 . This
shows that the current ratio is frequently increasing every year which means
that the company is going to be in good position in near future.
1) Debt ratio:-
The debt ratio measures the amount of leveraged used by a company.
Investor look for company have a debt ratio between 0.3 and 0.6.
Page 37 of 55
Year Total liabilities Total assets Debt ratio
Interpretation: - Debt ratio is between 0.4 to 0.03 is good. But less than that
indicates company have greater credit worthiness. It is also risk when company
carrying too little debt. In this 3 year i.e. 2020, 2019and 2018 is same. So it is good
for company.
Formula = short term debt + long term debt + other fixable payments (debt of the
company)/ shareholder’s equity.
Interpretation: - TCS debt to equity ratio is less than 1, that means assets of the
company are more funded by equity. And in this two years i.e. 2019, and 2018 debt
to equity ratio is less than 1. And in one year i.e. 2017 debt to equity ratio is more
than 1.

to the value of its assets. It indicates the efficiency of company is using its assets to

Page 39 of 55
Gross margin
Year Net sales Cogs
ratio
Interpretation- Gross margin of the year 2018, 2019 and 2020 is more than 50%
is considering high gross margin ratio. So, at that time sales price of the TCS'S is
not decline. It is improved so it is good for the company. Because company
maintaining revenue.
The operating margin measures how much profit a company makes on a dollar of
sales, after paying for variable cost of production, such as wages and raw materials,
but before paying interest or tax.
3) Return on assets:-
Return on assets indicates how much profit a company is able to generate from its
assets. It measures how efficient company’s management is in generating earnings
from their economic resources or assets on their balance sheet.
Page 40 of 55
Year PBT Total assets Return on assets ratio
Interpretation: - The year 2018and 2019 return on assets is less. So at that time
TCS, so is not efficient using its assets to generate sales. In the year 2019 it is
increasing so company is earning more money on less investment and generating
revenue efficiently.
The dividend yield, expressed as a percentage, is a financial ratio that shows how
much a company pays out in dividends each year relative to its stock price.
The reciprocal of the dividend yield is the dividend pay-out ratio. The dividend pay-
out ratio is the ratio of the total amount of dividends paid out to shareholders relative
to the net income of the company.
Interpretation: - A company with a high dividend yield pays its investors a large
dividend compared to the fair market value of the stock. This means the
investors are getting highly compensated for their investments compared with
lower dividend yielding stocks. A high or low dividend yield is relative to the
industry of the company. So in 2018 and 2019 the investors get high amount of
dividend and in 2020 the ratio is 376.5 so investors get low amount of dividend.
Page 41 of 55
2) Price earnings ratio:-
The price-earnings ratio, also known as P/E ratio, P/E, or PER, is the ratio of a
company's share (stock) price to the company's earnings per share. The ratio is used
for valuing companies and to find out whether they are overvalued or undervalued.
Interpretation: -The P/E ratio helps investors determine the market value of a
stock as compared to the company's earnings. In short, the P/E shows what the
market is willing to pay today for a stock based on its past or future earnings. A
high P/E could mean that a stock's price is high relative to earnings and possibly
overvalued. Conversely, a low P/E might indicate that the current stock price is low
relative to earnings. So in 2020 and 2019 the ratio is high so earning is high and in
2018 the ratio is 17.24 so the earning is low.

ABOUT COMPANIES OTHER AERAS
Strength:-
Clients from diversified markets: TCS has clients from diversified industries such
as Banking, financial services, retail, telecom and media and entertainment etc.
Exposure to diversified business industries dilutes business risks of overdependence
on a single market or industry.
Strong portfolio of services offered: TCS has a strong and balanced portfolio of
offered services which includes, Business process services (BPS) application
development and maintenance, IT infrastructure, business intelligence and much
more. Such a strong and diverse portfolio attracts various business clients
Weakness:-
Legal battles: In 2014, TCS was involved in a legal battle against Epic Systems for
alleged misuse of Epic System’s confidential information. In 2016, TCS was found
guilty and was ordered to pay damages worth $940 million. TCS has opposed the
Page 43 of 55

5.2 Competitive Analysis:-
The main anxiety for TCS is opposition from existing companies like Wipro,
Infosys and CTS as it has produced rivalry for active dealings and twisted
noteworthy pricing stress. Internationally, Companies like EDS have sited
themselves as competent of handling huge, “turnkey” ventures which can
distinguish themselves from contestants such as Accenture and IBM that spotlights
on superior value-added jobs such as consulting. This proposes an organically-
driven expansion strategy for TCS: as TCS should persist to do the similar sort of
job that it presently do, but should attempt to arrest a better section of the value-
addition by accepting huge projects. Although it has exhibited a potential in distant
project management, TCS would be requisite to increase the same capability.

various external factors like political, economic, social, technological (PEST)
which impacts its business along with legal & environmental factors. The PESTLE
Analysis highlights the different extrinsic scenarios which impact the business of
the brand.
Page 46 of 55
Political Factors:-
Economic Factors:-
As mentioned in the annual report the TCS’s revenue has exceeded the figure of
$20 billion, which is almost 20 times than that in the last 16 years. They have
established a strong market position in terms of securing the rank of being the first
Indian company to have a market capitalization of $100 billion in the last ten years.
Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has always followed an unconventional path for
creating differentiated strategy, creating its market success and allocating the
capital. They truly believe in the company’s ability to maintain the high revenue
growth as well as the profitability of the firm over the longer period. The revenue
growth of the firm has increased with a CAGR of 12.4%. They were awarded with
the honour of being the fastest growing brand in IT services worldwide by Brand
Finance.
Social Factors:-
Over the years of its operations, Tata Consultancy Services has gained expertise
into the area of establishing and retaining the existing customers. They have
designed certain set of features which are quite unique to the company which has
helped them in gaining popularity among its current set of clients. They provide a
Page 47 of 55
good work life balance to the employees. Although the company has been criticized
for many levels of hierarchy in the organization. Nevertheless, the company has
established a very strong financial presence across its areas of operations which
provide its client with a certain level of confidence in the company. Since India is
already the IT hub for TCS, it employs the skilled labour which is then posted onsite
for handling the clients. The skilled labour further speaks about the stability of the
company in front of the clients.
Technological Factors:-
Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) attributes the success of the company towards its
investment in technology and the preference given by the company to innovation.
The company collaborated with Singapore Airline Operations Solution, in order to
change the ground operations with the help of digital technologies which would
further improve operational efficiency and provide an enriched customer
experience. They further launched an Intelligent Power Plant Solution in order to
digitally transform operation with the help of power utilities, by combining AI, IoT
and Digital Twin technologies. The company also revealed the Machine First
Delivery Model at the North America Customer Summit as a proper channel of
providing superior experiences to the customers. It is a robust model which would
incorporate the use of analytics and AI in order to sense, understand, decide and
then act in a dynamic environment.
Legal Factors:-
TCS has been held responsible for stealing data in the past. The case was filed by
Computer Science Corporation where Tata Consultancy Services was held
responsible of fraudulently accessing content to construct an insurance platform.
According to CSC, the company was abusing its authority while accessing the
codes. The company further alleged that some TCS employee copied and then
pasted some part of CSC’s insurance source code. They were of the view that the
employee not only copied the code but sent it colleagues through e-mail. In return
CSC mentioned that they wanted TCS to compensate them for damages suffered.
The case is quite similar to one that was filed against the company in the past, where
they were accused by Epic Systems. TCS had lost the case where the company
suffered from heavy penalties of up to $420 million.
Page 48 of 55
Environmental Factors:-
Tata Consultancy Services truly believes that providing equitable access to financial
services to the poorest of states can act as a direct bridge out of poverty. TCS

about a banking revolution. The idea is to create a complete ecosystem where
participants are connected through an ecosystem to facilitate a seamless delivery of
banking services even in the most remote areas. Tata Consultancy Services (TCS)

5.5 To analyse the market opportunities for the company:-
TCS STRATEGY
Corporate Overview:-
TCS has successfully navigated through multiple technology cycles over the last
five decades, pivoting and adapting each time to build relevant new capabilities and
helping our clients realize the benefits of that new technology. Our responsiveness,
agility and adaptability to change have been core to our longevity.
TCS plans to allow 75% of its workforce to work from home by 2025:-
TCS (Tata Consultancy Services) is set to allow 75 per cent of its workforce to work
from home, by the year 2025. If the future plan of allowing 75 per cent of the
workforce to work from home implements, TCS would require less office space
than occupied today.
Page 51 of 55
work from home. As of now, nearly 90 per cent of employees at the company are
working from home, due to the coronavirus pandemic.
TCS positioned well for the future, says CEO Rajesh Gopinathan:-
TCS saw its digital revenue jump up 44.8 per cent year-on-year in the quarter ended
June, and it currently accounts for around 25 per cent of revenue.
"We are starting the new fiscal year on a strong note, with the growth engine firing
on all cylinders," TCS CEO and managing director Rajesh Gopinathan said in a
statement announcing the Q1 results, adding, "With a good set of wins during the
quarter, a robust deal pipeline and accelerating digital demand, we are positioned
well for the future".
So is the company finally back on a double-digit growth path? "In the medium term,
the growth is definitely sustainable as it is broad-based across verticals and
geographies. North America and BFSI - two large segments for us - are turning
around. This is where the optimism is coming from," he told The Economic Times.
The Tata Group flagship firm's BFSI vertical growth accelerated an impressive 4.1
per cent in the quarter under review.
But he does not rule out "one off events or economic turmoil" throwing a spanner
in the works. Gopinathan maintains that while there is definite visibility into the
next quarter, a lot also depends on how the holiday season pans out. "Retail is still
a bit weak and I wouldn't rule out a bankruptcy of some company there," he
ominously added.
TCS saw its digital revenue jump up 44.8 per cent year-on-year in the quarter ended
June, and it currently accounts for around 25 per cent of revenue. But going ahead,
while the company sees its digital business scaling up, it also expects growth to
moderate. "We grew better than 30% last financial year. We are confident of doing
30% again in FY19. It will moderate as size increases," Gopinathan told the daily.
Gopinathan, who completed a year as TCS chief earlier this year, interestingly does
not see battle lines drawn up as digital versus traditional. "While we break up
service lines as digital and non-digital, contracts don't. They are a composite of the
Page 52 of 55
two. There is still legacy procurement happening. Digital comes in at a better price
point but also has different challenges from a delivery perspective," he explained.
Another sea change currently underway is how customer boundaries are getting
erased. "Traditionally people thought of vertical integration, up and down the value
chain. Now enterprises are collaborating more horizontally. It is an evolving trend.
It has a [changing] business model and has a high technology leverage," said
Gopinathan. The key is to open up as an enterprise for effective collaboration.
