TCS Share Price in Focus; Q2 FY25 Results on October 9, Board to Consider Second Interim Dividend for FY26

India’s largest IT services firm, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), has scheduled a board meeting on October 9, 2025, to approve and record the company’s audited standalone financial results for the quarter and half-year ending September 30, 2025.

In its filing with the stock exchanges, TCS also confirmed that the board will consider a second interim dividend for FY26 during the meeting.

TCS Dividend Record Date Fixed

If approved, the second interim dividend will be paid to shareholders whose names appear in the company’s records on October 15, 2025, which has been fixed as the record date.

Earlier in Q1FY26, TCS had declared an interim dividend of ₹11 per share, underscoring its consistent track record of shareholder payouts.

TCS Q1 FY25 Performance Recap

In the June 2025 quarter (Q1FY26), TCS reported:

• Net profit: ₹12,760 crore, up 6% from ₹12,040 crore in the same period last year.
• Revenue: ₹63,437 crore, up 1.3% YoY but down 3% in constant currency terms.

This modest revenue growth highlights the impact of macroeconomic challenges and currency fluctuations on IT exporters.

Market Reaction and IT Sector Impact

On September 22, TCS shares closed 3% lower at ₹3,075.5 on the NSE. The broader IT pack also faced heavy selling, erasing nearly ₹85,400 crore in combined market capitalization, after the US government announced a steep increase in fees for new H-1B visa applications a key work visa category for Indian IT firms.

On Sep 23, the stock was trading at ₹3,056.90, down 0.55% on the NSE.

TCS Dividend Eligibility

For investors, dividend eligibility depends on holding TCS shares in their demat accounts as of the record date. The company has fixed October 15, 2025 as the record date for its proposed second interim dividend. This means that only shareholders whose names appear in the company’s register of members or as beneficial owners in depositories on this date will be entitled to receive the payout.
