The idea behind selling is to help the job cutting target by the bank and saves a lot of amount of their technology expenses. This is the ambition of chief executive officer Christian Sewing. The two companies finalize the sale of postbank system AG by the end of the year or it depends on the formalities that how much time it will take to complete the whole agreement on the statement of bank. The bank will take a hit of about 120 million euros ($140million). The bank will be benefited with a lot of money and the TCSwill be conquering the IT world with the advancement of technology and more user efficient experience than ever before witnessed. While the price tag on the deal is a symbolic one Euro, it still benefits Deutsche bank because the lender can save on further redundancy costs while offering long term job prospects for PB system. The deal is favorable by bank and it is a very smart step taken by the bank.

Asia biggest software exporter Tata Consultancy Services in the domain of software exporter market will take over PB system’s 1500 employee in Germany in the deal. Sewing last year unveiled a restricting plan centered on cutting 18000 jobs, with about half of those expected in Germany. Its largest lender recently dissolved the formerly separated subsidiary postbank AG and its now trying to wring hundreds of millions of euros in cost saving from eliminating duplication. As part of that effort it is merging postbank’s formerly separate IT operations with those of the parent company, which will ultimately render the services provided by PB systems redundant for the bank. As making software which has same function like bank will be more helpful and beneficial. Bank can now spend that amount on different things like spending it on client acquisition process and so it will raise their fund and so to get more customers on the doors of bank.
