Indian IT bellwether, TCS, has scheduled a board meeting for Thursday, April 9 to announce its financial results. TCS Q4 revenue and net profit would be in high focus as, in February, it announced its partnership with a number of AI firms, including OpenAI, ServiceNow, and Advanced Micro Devices, as part of its plan to accelerate AI adoption.

So what are the market expectations for TCS Q4 results?
Here’s what we know

According to Kotak Institutional Equities, TCS Q4 profit is estimated at Rs 14,058 crore, reflecting a 15% year-on-year (YoY) rise. Sequentially, the brokerage expects the profit to rise by 4.6%.
While Nuvama Institutional Equities pegs the TCS Q4 net profit slightly lower at nearly Rs 13,916 crore, up nearly 14% YoY, it expects the company’s bottom line to decline by nearly 1% on a sequential basis.

TCS Preview: Q4FY26 Estimated Revenue
According to Kotak, TCS Q4 revenue is expected at over Rs 70,435 crore, up more than 9% YoY and rising 5% sequentially. Meanwhile, Nuvama expects TCS Q4 revenue to rise 8% YoY at Rs 69,714 crore, signalling a QoQ rise of nearly 4%.
“We expect TCS to lead revenue growth among Tier-1 companies,” Kotak said in its report. The brokerage added that it also expects the company’s international business to grow faster and believes that TCS’s domestic business will decline marginally.
Nuvama adds that it expects the company to deliver 1.2% revenue growth sequentially, in constant currency terms, which essentially means excluding the impact of currency movement. The brokerage expects its revenue to grow by 1.7% QoQ in dollar terms.
