TCS Books Record $12.2 Billion in Contracts as FY25 Ends with ₹30 Dividend Per Share
India’s largest IT company, Tata Consultancy Services, has announced a final dividend of ₹30 per equity share for the financial year ending March 31, 2025. This development marks another significant moment in the firm’s ongoing commitment to shareholder returns. The dividend builds upon a strong history of consistent payouts and solid financial performance.
The announcement comes during a year that has tested several tech firms globally. Despite this, TCS continues to deliver stability and strength. The Board of Directors approved the dividend during its meeting, aligning with the company’s long-standing tradition of rewarding stakeholders annually.
Eligibility Set with June 4 Record Date
The eligibility cut-off was clearly defined. Only those holding TCS shares by the end of trading on June 4, 2025, are considered eligible. This date also stands as the ex-dividend date, meaning any purchases post that day will not qualify for this final payout. The system ensures clarity for both existing and potential investors.
Once approved at the Annual General Meeting on June 19, the dividend will be paid starting June 24. Payments will be credited directly to shareholders’ bank accounts linked to their demat or holding records, with tax deductions applied where required.
Dividend Adds to Strong Track Record
This ₹30 final dividend is not an isolated event. TCS has already distributed ₹96 per share earlier in the year, including ₹66 as a special dividend and multiple interim payouts. These figures bring the total dividend for FY25 to ₹126 per share.
Previous years reflect similar patterns. In FY24, shareholders received ₹28 as the final dividend. The company’s consistent approach in rewarding investors underscores its financial strength and disciplined capital allocation strategy.
Robust Q4 Performance Backs the Payout
For the fourth quarter of FY25, TCS posted a net profit of ₹12,224 crore. This reflected a 5.76% rise on an annual basis, despite sector-wide volatility. Revenue for the year touched ₹2,55,324 crore, showing a 5.99% increase from FY24.
Notable growth came from regional markets and European operations, with strong contributions from the BFSI segment. The company’s operating margin stood at 24.2%, while the net margin was maintained at 19.0%.
Cash flow remained solid. Operating cash flow accounted for 125.1% of net income. TCS also registered a record $12.2 billion in total contract value for the quarter. These figures collectively affirm the company’s strength in execution and market demand.
TCS Share Price Amid Market Movement
Ahead of the dividend announcement, TCS shares traded at ₹3,382.90, marking a 0.66% dip. The company’s share price has seen some pressure in recent weeks. Over the past month, it declined nearly 2%, and the six-month chart reflects a 22% fall. Year-to-date, the stock has slipped 18%.
Despite recent fluctuations, TCS still holds a commanding presence with a market capitalisation of ₹12.24 lakh crore. The stock’s 52-week range stands between ₹3,056 and ₹4,592.25.
Outlook for Shareholders and Market Observers
No additional steps are required from eligible shareholders. The dividend will be transferred automatically. TCS’s consistent payouts and strong financials offer assurance, even amid macroeconomic noise. The clarity in its shareholder policies and stable earnings profile make it a stock to watch, especially for those focusing on steady returns.
This final dividend for FY25 aligns with the company’s clear direction—rewarding shareholder loyalty while maintaining strong fiscal health. TCS continues to serve as a pillar of resilience in the Indian IT landscape.
