Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), the country’s largest IT services firm, has created a new AI and services transformation unit, underscoring the growing importance of artificial intelligence in its strategy.
The unit will be headed globally by Amit Kapur, a TCS veteran who currently leads the company’s UK and Ireland business, effective 1 September 2025.
He will take charge as Chief AI and services transformation officer, reporting directly to Aarthi Subramanian, Executive Director, President & Chief Operating Officer of TCS.
The announcement was made by the company in an internal email to its employees, which Business Standard has reviewed.
The restructuring consolidates TCS’ AI initiatives, including the AI & Data unit carved out in Q4FY25, into a single entity aimed at driving innovation, simplifying client engagement, and accelerating digital transformation.
The new unit will integrate all of the firm’s existing teams and capabilities in AI and work closely with other horizontal service units, as well as industry business groups, to scale TCS’ impact in this area and enable benefit realisation at scale for clients.
Peter Bendor-Samuel, Founder and Executive Chairman, Everest Group, described the changes at TCS as very encouraging, especially as AI is disrupting the tech services industry.
He added that TCS is now taking concrete actions to ensure it is not left behind in this disruption and will use AI aggressively across its businesses.
In Q4FY25, the company had announced the split of its AI.Cloud unit into two separate business units focused on AI and Data, and Cloud. K Krithivasan, CEO and MD, had told Business Standard after the results that the decision reflected market trends.
