TCS-led consortium bags Rs 15,000-crore BSNL project for 4G network

Tata Consultancy Services-led consortium has bagged a Rs 15,000-crore contract from BSNL to deploy 4G network for the state-run telco.

In a statement, TCS said it has received an “advance purchase order” valued over Rs 15,000 crore from BSNL.

The announcement ends months of speculation around the deal, where TCS was tipped to be the front runner for the contract. The deal has been in the works for many months.

TCS is the country’s largest software exporter and typically books over 5 per cent of its revenue domestically.
