TCS could be first Indian supplier to get in UK top ten

An interesting article by Anthony Miller at Techmarketview was emailed to me by a reader.

Miller has estimated, following the latest round of financial results, that India's biggest IT service provider Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), could be the first Indian company to get in the UK top ten in terms of revenues.

Miller estimates that TCS ended 2010 with UK revenues of about £765m which is17% higher than in 2009.

It looks like it could be moving to 9th by creeping past Logica and Atos.

Problem for many is that its UK workforce seems to be getting smaller, according to a source of mine. He said TCS is taking on UK contracts and the workers via TUPE transfers but then replacing many of them with offshore staff in India.
