What growth does the market imply for TCS?
Working backwards from the current price to find the FCF growth assumption baked in.
conservative
4.8% implied annual FCF growth
The market is pricing in below-GDP growth — very conservative assumption. If the company delivers anywhere near its historical rate, there is significant upside.

Plain English
To justify today's price of $2537.10, TCS.NS needs to grow its free cash flow at 4.8% per year for the next 10 years. That is 1.7% slower than its historical growth rate of 6.5%. This looks achievable — the market is not pricing in heroic assumptions. There may be genuine upside if the company executes.
