TCS surges over 3 percent on better-than-expected quarterly earnings

MUMBAI (Reuters) - Shares in Tata Consultancy Services , India's biggest software services exporter, rose 3.6 percent on Friday after its April-June profit and sequential U.S. dollar revenue growth of 5.5 percent beat estimates.

Better-than-expected revenue growth reduces the asking rate for achieving management's guidance of better revenue growth in FY15 than FY14, Nomura said in a report on Friday.

Analysts added that although TCS' valuation looks rich, it is sustainable given execution and visibility remains good.
