MUMBAI, October 1, 2017: Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), (BSE:532540, NSE: TCS), a leading global IT Services, Consulting and Business solutions organization, today announced that an Opinion and Order has been issued by the Western District Court of Wisconsin, USA in the suit filed by Epic Systems Corporation against the Company. Partially granting TCS motion, the Court significantly reduced the compensatory and punitive damages of $940 million awarded by the Jury verdict in April 2016, to $420 million.
The Company has received legal advice to the effect that the order and the reduced damages awarded are not supported by evidence presented during the Trial and a strong appeal can be made to superior court to fully set aside the Jury verdict. The Company did not misuse or derive any benefit from Epic’s documents and plans to defend its position vigorously before the Trial Judge as well as in appeal.
The order will not have any impact on the company’s financial results for Q2 FY 18, expected to be released on October 12, 2017.
