Shares of Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) on Friday fell by 2.45 per cent on lower-than-expected margins for the third quarter.
The stock went down by 2.45 per cent to end at Rs 1,841.95 on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE). During the day, it slipped 2.75 per cent to Rs 1,836.10.
At the National Stock Exchange (NSE), shares of the company declined 2.38 per cent to close at Rs 1,843.45 apiece.
“TCS delivered a mixed bag for 3QFY19, with in-line revenues, but tepid earnings before Interest and Tax (EBIT) margin. Higher other income helped PAT, which was in line with estimates,” Centrum Broking said in a note.
In terms of equity volume, 5.31 lakh shares of the company were traded on the BSE and over 92 lakh shares changed hands at the NSE during the day.
The country’s largest software exporter TCS on Thursday reported a 24.1 per cent growth in net profit at Rs 8,105 crore for the quarter ended December.

The Tata group firm, which accounts for the lion’s share of the group’s overall profit, reported a revenue growth of 20.8 per cent at Rs 37,338 crore for the said quarter, up from Rs 30,904 crore a year ago.
