TCS announced after market hours yesterday, 7 September 2016, that it intends to update investors on business trends in Q2 September 2016. Based on data at the end of August 2016, the company has characterized customer outlook as one marked by abundant caution, with some holding back of discretionary spending - particularly in the banking and financial services (BFSI) vertical in the United States - resulting in a sequential loss of momentum.
The BFSI vertical reportedly contributed around 40% to the company's revenue in Q1 June 2016.
