If You Invested ₹10,000 In TCS When It Listed, Here's How Much You'd Have Today

Tata Technologies IPO is probably the most anticipated IPO of the year, and a lot of it has to do with the fact that it is the first Tata Group company to go public in nearly two decades. The last Tata Group company IPO was back in 2004 when Tata Consultancy Services made its debut at the bourses on August 25, 2004. So, if you had invested ₹10,000 in the IT giant back then, what would have happened?

The Investment: On August 25, 2004, if you had put ₹10,000 into TCS at ₹87.5 per share, you could have acquired approximately 114 shares. Fast forward to November 22, 2023, those same shares would now be worth an astonishing ₹4.01 lakh at ₹3,500 per share. This translates to an increase of around 3911.71% on your initial investment.
