Tata Consultancy Services rose 1.46% to Rs 2,664.30 after the company's board fixed 28 November 2020 as the record date for share buyback.

On 7 October 2020, the board of TCS had approved a proposal to buyback up to 5.33 crore equity shares of the company for an aggregate amount not exceeding Rs 16,000 crore, being 1.42% of the total paid-up equity share capital, at Rs 3,000 per equity share.
