Background

Wipro Ltd, a Bengaluru‑based IT services firm, posted mixed Q2 FY27 performance: revenue grew 9.1% YoY to ₹24,752.7 cr, but profit declined 1.4% YoY and 4.7% sequentially. The decline was driven by a sharp contraction in large‑deal bookings, which fell 58.6% in constant‑currency terms.

Despite the profit dip, the company highlighted progress in its AI‑native strategy and a modest expansion of operating margin to 16.5%. Workforce reductions and slower fresher onboarding were noted as part of routine realignment.

Questions people ask

What caused the profit decline?

A steep drop in large‑deal bookings, down nearly 59%, reduced overall earnings despite revenue growth.

Is Wipro's AI strategy helping the business?

The CEO said AI is a long‑term growth driver, but the immediate financial impact was limited in this quarter.

What are analysts saying?

Analysts noted stable delivery and regional strength, but highlighted the need to improve deal flow and hiring.
