TCS Q4 Results 2026 preview: Check expectations, estimates ahead of Tata Consultancy Services quarterly earnings, dividend announcement

ETNow.in 2 days ago

TCS Q4 results 2026 preview and expectations: Tata Consultancy Services Ltd (TCS), India's largest IT services company, is all set to announce its Q4 FY26 earnings report tomorrow (April 9).

Along with the quarterly results, the IT services major might also declare a dividend for its shareholders. The company informed this through an exchange filing last month on March 23.

TCS is likely to post a robust performance in the January-March quarter. The tech giant is poised for a steady quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) performance, signalling a strong recovery from a seasonally weak third quarter due to holidays. Worth mentioning, this is the first quarter of the company following an AI-led crash that started earlier in February this year, and continues to weigh on IT stocks.
