Axis Securities

The brokerage house has maintained “Hold” rating on the stock with a revised price target of ₹3,370 per share from earlier estimate of ₹3,350 apiece, implying an upside of 3% from the current price. “With a limited upside from the current market price and the stock lacking triggers for the upside, we maintain our HOLD rating on the stock,” it said in a report.

On future outlook, the agency said that the growth rate may slow down in FY24 due to uncertainties in the world’s largest economies. “However, supply-side constraints are easing up, which will help the company to gain some margin expansion in the near term. While H2FY24 may see some revision on the demand side, the industry’s and the company’s long-term outlook remain robust,” it said.

From a long-term perspective, Axis Securities believes that TCS has built a resilient business model by securing multiple long-term contracts with the world’s leading brands. It has also established robust capabilities that will enable it to gain market share moving ahead. However, prevailing uncertainties in large economies continue to pose short-term headwinds to the company's growth prospects, it noted.
