TCS began operations in Ireland in the year:
B
Correct answer
Explanation
Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), an Indian IT services company, established its operations in Ireland in 2001 as part of its international expansion. This timing aligns with the Celtic Tiger period when many tech companies expanded into Ireland. The other years are incorrect - TCS was already operating globally by 2000, and 2005/2009 are too late for their initial Irish entry.
