TCS notifies shareholders of its 30th Annual General Meeting through a newspaper advertisement as per SEBI LODR Regulations.
Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) Publishes Notice of 30th AGM in Newspapers as per SEBI Norms
Tata Consultancy Services Ltd (NSE: TCS, BSE: 532540), India’s largest IT services provider, has promulgated formal notice to its shareholders informing them of the company’s forthcoming 30th Annual General Meeting (AGM). The notice was promulgated via newspaper advertisement pursuant to Regulation 30 and Regulation 47 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015.
The May 20, 2025, disclosure is an assurance of TCS’s adherence to transparent and compliant communication with stakeholders and shareholders. The step is another extension of the company’s strict compliance with corporate governance principles.
Details of the AGM Notice
In line with the official communication filed before the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), the advertisement provides key information relating to the 30th AGM. Although the agenda and motions in full are contained in the official document filed with the exchanges, the advertisement is a advance public notice.
The company has released the notice in leading English and local language newspapers to make it easily accessible to the public and investors. This move is in accordance with SEBI guidelines that require listed companies to inform the shareholders of general meetings and other important events through mainstream print media.
Why Newspaper Publication Still Matters
Despite the increasing reliance on digital communication, newspaper advertisements continue to play a vital role in corporate disclosures. SEBI’s Regulations mandate companies to issue certain notices through print media to ensure that all shareholders — including those who may not have opted for electronic communication — are adequately informed.
TCS’s decision to adhere to this practice is reflective of its prudent approach towards investor disclosure and compliance. This is especially applicable to large and dispersed base shareholding structures that have institutional investors, mutual funds, and retail shareholders belonging to urban and rural regions.
Regulatory Compliance and Corporate Governance
In performing its obligations under SEBI LODR Regulations 30 and 47, TCS reasserts its leadership status for corporate governance in India’s IT industry. Regulation 30 has to do with making disclosures of material events or information, whereas Regulation 47 has to do with publishing the notice of meetings and financial outcomes in newspapers.
Such regulations are all encompassing in nature and aimed at strengthening transparency, investor protection, as well as fair disclosure practices in the Indian capital markets. TCS’s compliance also ensures that the rights of every shareholder are maintained, particularly with regard to voting, dividend decisions, and strategic direction.
Access to AGM Details
Investors and interested parties can find the full AGM notice and supporting documents on the company websites of TCS as well as the stock exchange sites (BSE and NSE). A copy of the ad is also available in the BSE corporate filing section under the news ID d1ee4875-23ef-42e7-a139-218492be9bb8.
For ease, shareholders are invited to look at the online version of the company’s annual report and guide to voting, which will be published before the AGM.
