TCS Q4 Results 2025 Preview: Margins, Dividend, and Deal Wins in Spotlight as Tata Tech Giant Kicks Off Earnings Season
TCS Q4 Results 2025: Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) is all set to announce its Q4 and full-year FY25 results today, April 9, 2025, officially marking the beginning of the earnings season for India Inc. The results come amid muted expectations, with investors laser-focused on margins, FY26 guidance, and updates on deal wins.
Margins, Dividend Outlook, and Tariff Impact in Focus
Top brokerage firms are keeping a watchful eye on TCS’s margin band, which is expected to remain in the 26-28% range, according to HDFC Securities, which maintains an Add rating with a target price of ₹4,040.
“We have factored in a 50bps margin improvement for FY26E due to rupee depreciation and easing supply-side constraints,” the brokerage stated. However, it also noted muted total contract value (TCV) numbers around $11 billion, primarily due to the absence of large mega renewals.
Nuvama Institutional Equities expects -0.2% QoQ CC revenue growth and -1% QoQ decline in USD terms, due to project ramp-downs such as BSNL, although developed market rebounds are anticipated.
TCS Dividend 2025: Will There Be a Final Payout?
Investors are also eagerly awaiting news on the final dividend for FY25. According to the company’s filing, the TCS board may recommend a final dividend, which will be subject to shareholder approval during the upcoming AGM.
So far this financial year, TCS has already:
- Announced three interim dividends of ₹10 each
- Declared a special dividend of ₹66 in January 2025
- Paid out a total of ₹124 per share in FY25, as noted by Axis Securities
- Maintained a dividend yield of 4% over the past 12 months
Muted Growth Expected Amid Trump Tariff Volatility
With Trump-era tariffs shaking global investor sentiment, TCS stock has taken a hit. It closed at ₹3,246.10 on Thursday, down 30% from its 52-week high of ₹4,585.90 (September 2024) and hovering just above its 52-week low of ₹3,060.25, tested earlier this month.
Brokerages including Elara Capital, Nirmal Bang, and Choice Broking have flagged demand uncertainties, slower revenue conversion, and the impact of macro-policy shifts as major overhangs.
