TCS beats Reliance Industries, becomes India's most valued company again

TCS

Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) on Wednesday reclaimed the country's most valued firm status by market capitalisation, pushing Reliance Industries Ltd to the second spot.

Reliance Industries (RIL) on Tuesday became the country's most valued firm by m-cap, replacing Tata Group's crown jewel TCS from the top slot.

However, RIL's reign was short-lived as it slipped to the second spot in the m-cap ranking with a market valuation of Rs 7.54 trillion on BSE on Wednesday.

On the other hand, the m-cap of TCS stood at Rs 7.56 trillion, which is Rs 14.08 billion more than that of RIL's valuation.

Shares of TCS rose 1.74 per cent to settle at Rs 1,975.10 on BSE and RIL gained 0.45 per cent to end the day at Rs 1,191.15.

TCS had first replaced RIL as the most valued firm more than five years ago.

The IT major in mid-June become the first Indian company to close the trading session with a market valuation of over Rs 7 trillion.
