Abstract- The study is aimed at exploring how the Pay for Performance (P4P) system has been effective in promoting the productivity of employees in Tata Consultancy Services (TCS). Through a study of employee perceptions with regards to fairness, transparency, motivation, and change in productivity, the paper evaluates the statement that performance-based pay leads to improved work output in one of the Indian IT companies. Through the structured questionnaire sent to 60 employees, the quantitative study indicates that although P4P is effective in motivating and increasing the productivity of most workers, the lack of clarity in the performance measure and the belief that managers are biased inhibits its efficiency to a considerable extent. The results show that clear communication, fair assessment procedures, and regular recognition are important to ensure that the P4P systems are more beneficial. The research provides valuable suggestions concerning the enhancement of the incentive systems in large organizations based on knowledge and adds to the scope of literature on performance management within Indian IT environment.
