Today it is one of the world’s largest IT software and services companies with more than 240,000 people working in forty two countries and annual revenues of over 10 billion dollars. The TCS story is one of modern India’s great success stories. In this fascinating book, S. Ramadorai, one of the country’s most respected business leaders, recounts the steps to that extraordinary success, and outlines a vision for the future where the quality initiatives he undertook can be applied to a larger national framework.
