This record of tcs will be broken
In the domestic market, the record of the biggest IPO of the IT sector is currently registered in the name of Tata Group's IT company TCS, which is also India's largest IT company. TCS i.e. Tata Consultancy Services had brought an IPO of Rs 4,713 crore about 2 decades ago. Hexaware Technologies plans to bring an IPO of Rs 9,950 crore. That is, the proposed IPO of Hexaware Tech is going to be about 2 times that of TCS.

Hexaware Tech has appointed Kotak Investment Banking, Citi Global Markets, JP Morgan, SBC Securities and IIFL Securities as managers for the IPO. American private equity firm Carlyle is the promoter of the IT company. Carlyle bought Hexaware from Bearing Private Equity Asia (now EQT) in 2021 for about $3 billion.
