    Management Commentary:

    • Wipro Ltd is seeing continued growth in the BFSI sector, driven by discretionary spending in Capco and non-discretionary cost take-out and vendor consolidation deals. Management expects BFSI budgets to increase, particularly in the Americas 2 region, with strong growth in Health and AI-driven differentiation in APMEA.
    • Wipro Ltd aims to maintain margins within a narrow range in Q4, leveraging fixed pricing, productivity improvements, pyramid optimization, and overhead cost reduction. Despite wage hikes and furloughs, margin improved due to strong execution in core and consulting businesses. The company also revised its capital allocation policy, increasing payouts to 70% of net income over three years.
    • Wipro Ltd anticipates gradual demand recovery, with strong performance in BFSI and Healthcare, while EMR and consumer sectors are still recovering. Discretionary spending in BFSI is rising, particularly in the US. Q4 guidance reflects cautious optimism, with Capco’s order book growing 9% YoY.

    Outlook:

    Wipro Ltd is well-positioned for sustained growth, with strong performance in BFSI and Healthcare, despite challenges in EMR and consumer markets. Management expects demand recovery, particularly in North America, driven by increased discretionary spending in BFSI. The company aims to maintain stable margins in Q4 through cost optimization and productivity improvements. Capco business continues to show solid growth, and Wipro expects further expansion in its order book. Wipro’s revised capital allocation policy, increasing payouts to 70% of net income over three years, reflects confidence in future growth, especially in cloud and AI-driven solutions.
