FRANKFURT, Nov 9 (Reuters) - Germany's Deutsche Bank has agreed to sell its IT services division Postbank Systems to India's Tata Consultancy Services, it said on Monday.

Postbank Systems has around 1,500 employees, mainly in the German city of Bonn. The sale is part of Deutsche's plan to shed 18,000 staff overall to cut costs and restore profitability.

Deutsche Bank will pay TCS's integration costs of 120 million euros ($142.69 million) as part of the deal.
