LUCKNOW: Tata Group chief Natarajan Chandrasekaran today said IT services firm Tata Consultancy Services will not exit Lucknow but continue to increase its presence in the city as well as across the state.

Speaking at the inaugural session of UP Investors Summit 2018 here, he also announced that TCS will build a new campus for 30,000 people in the state.

"We have a holistic presence in UP. Tata Motors is here, TCS has a large presence, Tata Projects have been significantly present here," he added.

He further said Tata Group will not be confined to any particular sector but will help the state grow across all sectors.

"We are extremely keen to participate in the growth of UP across sectors such as manufacturing, IT, infra etc," he said.

Last year, TCS had decided to wind up its offices in Lucknow prompting the employees to approach the state government for help.
