Commenting on the award Mrutyunjay Mahapatra, DMD & CIO, said, “The IT systems merger program had multiple challenges owing to the aggressive schedule, quantum of data, and breadth of its coverage. Any disruption would have national impact on our operations and customers but Bank’s Operations Team and TCS together orchestrated the entire Life-Cycle of data cleaning, conflict resolution and execution with precision. Above 7000 branches were merged without any break in service. This complex merger within an aggressive timeframe is a testimony to TCS and Bank Teams’ commitment for delivery rigor.”

Ujjwal Mathur, Vice President and Country Head – India Business, TCS, said, ” Extensive use of digital technologies enabled us to accomplish such a monumental task.
