The Tata group giant began sending increment letters late Monday evening, with the raises becoming effective from September.
The announcement comes after a turbulent few months for the IT major. In June, TCS announced a deferral of salary hikes amid uncertain market conditions, followed by a surprise decision to reduce its workforce by around 2 per cent (12,000 employees).
However, in a turnaround, the company recently announced hikes for nearly 80 percent of its employees.
Sources in the report added that top performers have received hikes exceeding 10 percent, while most of the increments have been extended to employees in the lower- and mid-levels of the corporate hierarchy.
The salary revision comes at a time when the company reported a slight uptick in its attrition rate, which stood at 13.8 percent in the June quarter, the report added.
An official response from TCS on the development its still awaited, according to the report.
