TCS carves out two new telecom, 5G business Units

Tata Consultancy Services has carved out two new business units dedicated to telecom and 5G solutions led by industry veterans, according to sources. The company has created a network solutions and services unit (NSS), under the communications and media vertical, to cater to 5G rollout and engineering solutions led by Vimal Kumar.

It has also created a cognitive enterprise network unit (CEN), within the enterprise growth group, to offer intelligent network management solutions led by Satya Pitta.

India’s largest IT services company by revenue, TCS has been bullish on the 5G opportunity and has been vocal about industry access to 5G spectrum. TCS did not respond to queries about the initiative as it has commenced its silent period. ET has reviewed a copy of an internal mail sent to key stakeholders identifying the new business unit.
