TCS stock has declined 4% after announcement of Q4FY15 results. According
to the CEO Mr. Chandrashekaran the company’s execution has been solid and
the dismal Q4FY15 earnings come on back of poor macroeconomic and
demand conditions. The beginning of the Q4FY15 earnings season suggests
tepid growth for the IT industry with the largest player reporting not so
encouraging results.
