TCS to acquire Coastal Cloud for $700m to boost Salesforce capabilities

Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) announced on December 10, 2025, the acquisition of 100% stake in Coastal Cloud Holdings, LLC, a leading US Salesforce consulting firm, for an all-cash consideration of $700 million. This strategic move aims to position TCS among the top 5 Salesforce advisory and consulting firms globally, strengthening its AI-first, agent-driven transformation strategy. Coastal Cloud, founded in December 2012, specializes in multi-cloud Salesforce consulting, with consolidated turnover reaching $132 million for FY ending December 2024 and $141 million for the Last Twelve Months (LTM) until September 2025.

The acquisition, expected to be completed by January 31, 2026, will be facilitated through ListEngage MidCo, LLC, a wholly owned TCS subsidiary in the USA, which will also incorporate two new wholly owned subsidiaries. Coastal Cloud brings nearly 400 Salesforce-skilled professionals and a strong client roster, particularly in the mid-market segment. This acquisition, coupled with TCS's earlier October 2025 acquisition of ListEngage, will enhance TCS's global Salesforce capabilities across various industry verticals.

The transaction is subject to Hart-Scott-Rodino antitrust (HSR) approval in the USA and other customary conditions precedent and regulatory approvals.
