As you know, TCS does not partake in much advertising or self-promotion, we value our client relationships and choose to spend our budgets on clients and growing organically through referrals. However, we do like to ensure that people know what we are about and the value proposition that TCS brings to investors. We chose an understated yet somewhat dramatic theme here in a very classy and professional black and white visual scheme.
