TCS has missed on both revenue and margins in the June quarter results, says expert
Shares of Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) on Monday fell nearly 5%, wiping out ₹55,471.22 crore from its market valuation, after the company's June quarter earnings failed to meet market expectations.
The stock declined 4.64% to settle at ₹3,113.25 apiece on the BSE. During the day, it went lower by 4.87% to ₹3,105.85.
On the NSE, it fell 4.70% to end at ₹3,112 apiece.
Its market capitalisation (mcap) tumbled ₹55,471.22 crore to ₹11,39,154.17 crore on the BSE.
"On a stock specific front TCS fell by more than 4% as Q1 FY23 results missed estimates," said Mohit Nigam, Head - PMS at Hem Securities.
The country's largest software exporter TCS on Friday reported a 5.2% rise in the June quarter net profit to ₹9,478 crore, restricted by the impact of annual wage hikes and promotions that took operating profit margins to multi-quarter lows.
The Tata Group company, which is the first in the country's over $220 billion software exports industry to report earnings, however, said that it does not see any adverse business impact because of worries around recession in its key markets.

Insurance penetration and density are often misunderstood and do not reveal how many families are insured or whether they would be financially secure if the main earning member were to die. The real issue is not reach but adequacy, as households may have life insurance but not enough cover to replace lost income, leaving them financially vulnerable.
