TCS reaps growth honours with Everest Group’s 2025 Elevate recognition
MUMBAI: Scaling new peaks comes naturally to TCS. Tata Consultancy Services has been crowned with the ‘Growth Honor’ of the year at Everest Group’s 2025 Elevate Honors in Dallas, a recognition that applauds its industry-leading organic growth and market impact.
The IT giant marked a staggering 39.4 billion dollars in total contract value and 30 billion dollars in revenues in FY25, consolidating its position as one of the world’s most powerful tech players. Everest Group noted TCS’ consistent revenue growth among global peers with revenues above 5 billion dollars, calling it proof of delivery excellence, operational strength, and innovation at scale.
“This award reflects our unwavering commitment to growth, driven by our expertise in AI and digital transformation, and the trust our clients place in us,” said TCS, global head – analyst relations, Nikhil Shahane.
The recognition caps a landmark year for TCS. In 2025, it became the world’s second-largest IT services brand, with a valuation of 21.3 billion dollars, and secured a spot in Fortune’s ‘World’s Most Admired Companies.’ Meanwhile, Whitelane Research ranked TCS first for customer satisfaction in Europe, for the twelfth consecutive year.
Everest Group, partner, Ronak Doshi said: “Elevate Honors are based on fact-based, analyst-driven research. Honourees like TCS are recognised solely for high performance and excellence.”
TCS’ growth story is being fuelled by next-gen bets, especially on artificial intelligence. The firm recently appointed a chief AI and services transformation officer and expanded services spanning AI, cloud, data, cyber security, and digital engineering. Its global clientele includes the top names in banking, telecom, retail, healthcare, and entertainment.
With over 600,000 employees across 55 countries, TCS is not only delivering technology-led transformation but also investing in long-term partnerships, sustainability, and community impact, including sponsorship of marathons from New York to London to Sydney.
In short, TCS isn’t just climbing mountains, it’s building them.

Hiili names Sanjay Hemady as country manager India
Media veteran to drive digital decarbonisation push
MUMBAI: Climate tech firm Hiili has announced its entry into India, appointing industry veteran Sanjay Hemady as India country manager to steer its growth in one of the world’s fastest-expanding digital markets.
Hemady, a familiar name across India’s media and consulting circles, will lead Hiili’s India operations from Mumbai. His mandate is clear: help Indian companies measure, manage and reduce the carbon emissions generated by their digital services.
Hiili offers a scientifically validated platform, certified by the UC3M-Santander Big Data Institute, that enables businesses to improve the efficiency of their digital infrastructure while cutting emissions. As organisations race to meet ESG targets, the company positions itself as a practical bridge between climate pledges and measurable action.
“I’m happy to share that I’m starting a new position as country manager, India at Hiili,” Hemady said in a LinkedIn post, adding that the company aims to move beyond broad sustainability promises towards precise, science-based decarbonisation.
Hemady brings more than three decades of experience spanning print, television, radio and digital media. He has previously served as chief executive officer at HIT 95 FM, assistant general manager at CNBC TV18, and held leadership roles at MTV India and The Indian Express, among others. Most recently, he worked as an independent business consultant advising firms across media and technology.
With India’s digital economy expanding at pace, the environmental cost of data, streaming and online services is climbing quietly in the background. Hiili’s bet is that carbon efficiency will soon sit alongside cost efficiency in boardroom conversations.
For Hemady, the move marks a shift from selling airtime and ad inventory to championing climate accountability. If successful, Hiili’s India play could make digital growth not just faster, but cleaner too.
