Yes, you are eligible for TCS off campus placement 2016.

Required percentage of marks throughout the studies for TCS is 60%.

You shouldn't have any pending backlog.

More than two years gap in throughout the studies are not eligible for TCS recruitment.

TCS stands for the Tata Consultancy Services.

Eligibility criteria for the TCS recruitment drive:

1. Candidate must have passed 10th, 10+2 and bachelor's degree from a recognized board.

2. In first attempt candidate must have scored 60% or more marks in all standards.

3. Maximum gap of 24 months between studies is allowed.

So, you can apply for the TCS off campus or on campus with one year gap but you must have valid reasons for that and supporting documents if applicable.

Having academic gap of 1 year is not a problem at all. The reason being academic gap upto 2 years is allowed.

Please find below the eligibility for TCS Off campus placement :

-Students should have scored 60% in all the studies - Engineering, 10+2 and in 10th standard also

-Students are not having any backlogs.

-Students should perform well in the selection rounds.

Off campus recruitment means TCS will not come to your college and you should go to the college for which TCS is coming.

Any one who has educational gap for 2 years or more than that will have to give and justified valid reason for the gap. Same applied for working professional not more than 2 years gap. If yes then need to give proper reason.
