      https://www.tcs.com website has multiple H1 tag on around 40 out of 1000 pages. Webpage has different section and each section is important that's why used multiple H1 tag (one h1 for each section)

      **I understand, google will not penalize for multiple H1. But having multiple H1, for site like tcs, is it good or should use only one H1 tag? **Pls check https://www.tcs.com to see heading tag(6 heading tag used).

        What is your actual broader question or goal? What are you trying to achieve? What are your keywords that you are targeting?

        Page Grade C for 'Digital Strategies'
        https://moz.com/researchtools/on_page_grader_reports/3527269

        Page Grade B for 'Consulttancy services'

        https://moz.com/researchtools/on_page_grader_reports/3527263

        Something to keep in mind is that when using the H1 for benefit of SEO (whatever minor factor it contributes to) H1 "Digital Strategies for Big Picture Results" is not the same as is not the same as H1 "Digital Strategies"

            The short answer is "no", you wont get penalized for having multiple H1 tags if the UI is subtle and the User Experience is great.
