When is the promotion cycle in TCS? My manager told in current quarter there is no promotion cycle

It depends on the grade for seniors C3B and above once in a year others i think 2 times a year and juniors every quarter

Lack of Transparency and Communication: TCS management often fails to clearly communicate the actual timelines and criteria for promotions. Promising a promotion in December and then backtracking in April suggests either a lack of accurate information or deliberate miscommunication. And Poor Managerial Accountability: Corporate culture at TCS gives managers too much leeway without accountability. If a manager commits to a promotion, there should be a system that holds them accountable for such promises, or at least ensures follow-up communication if circumstances change.
