The company carries a PE of 13.89 — the lowest among the 6 tracked IT peers — alongside a 5-year earnings growth rate of 11.8% and ROE of 31.44%, which ranks 2nd in the peer group. Two consecutive single-day declines of approximately 9.74% on June 20 and June 21 mark a sharp acceleration of the broader downtrend.
Wipro (WIPRO) trades at ₹198.37, down 15.73% over 12 months and 25.49% below its 52-week high, with the price sitting below both the 50-DMA (₹199.63) and 200-DMA (₹226.97). At a trailing PE of 15.79 and forward PE of 13.79, the valuation is broadly in line with INFY (15.58) and TCS (16.16), but ROE of 15.44% lags all five tracked peers and 5-year earnings CAGR is -1.6%. The analyst community of 40 shows a mean rating of 3.18 on a 1–5 scale (lower = more constructive).
Pros
- ✓ROE of 31.44% ranks 2nd among 6 tracked IT peers (HCLTECH 23.36%, WIPRO 15.44%, TECHM 16.61%, LTM 21.29%); TCS at 48.4% is the only peer ahead.
- ✓PE of 13.89 is the lowest in the tracked peer group (next lowest: WIPRO at 14.36, TCS at 15.71); forward PE of 12.84 implies the multiple has contracted further on forward estimates.
- ✓5-year earnings growth of 11.8% outpaces 5-year revenue growth of 6.6%, suggesting margin expansion or mix-shift contribution over the period.
- ✓Quality score of 65 ties for 1st place among 6 IT peers (LTM also 65; TCS 62; others 40–49), and the company secured a new contract with Norway-based DNB Bank for financial crime operations modernisation as recently as June 7.
- ✓FCF was positive in 4 of the 5 tracked fiscal years, indicating the business generates cash despite earnings-growth headwinds.
- ✓Trailing PE of 15.79 and forward PE of 13.79 are below Tech Mahindra (27.40) and LTM (23.81), placing WIPRO among the lower-PE names in the large-cap IT peer set (ranked 2nd of 6 on PE).
- ✓Revenue has grown at a 5-year CAGR of 7.7%, showing top-line expansion even as margin conversion has been uneven.
- ✓The Aggne Global stake increase (to 80% for $28.5 million, announced June 2026) adds an inorganic growth initiative in the US market.
Cons
- ✗Price has declined 33.5% over 12 months and 12.01% over 3 months; the stock has not traded above its 200-DMA (₹1,380.29) and is 23.8% below it, reflecting a sustained multi-month downtrend. Two additional single-day drops of ~9.74% each on June 20 and June 21 accelerated the drawdown to 37.84% from the 52-week high.
- ✗D/E ratio of 9.83 stands materially above what is typical for large-cap asset-light IT businesses; elevated leverage constrains financial flexibility relative to less-leveraged peers.
- ✗Revenue growth of 6.6% over 5 years is at the lower end of IT-sector norms; persistence consistency score of 53 (out of 100) and FCF-positive in only 4 of the tracked years limit confidence in the durability of the headline ROE figure.
- ✗CFO sold 5,191 shares on May 28, and a third-party analyst note cut the 12-month price target to ₹1,455.74; insider disposal and target reductions are incremental negative signals even if individually modest.
- ✗5-year earnings CAGR of -1.6% alongside 7.7% revenue growth points to margin dilution or cost pressures absorbing top-line gains over the period.
- ✗ROE of 15.44% ranks last among the 6 tracked large-cap IT peers; TCS (48.4%), INFY (31.44%), HCLTECH (23.36%), LTM (21.29%), and TECHM (16.61%) all record higher capital efficiency.
- ✗Price is down 15.73% over 12 months and 25.49% below the 52-week high, with the stock trading below both the 50-DMA and 200-DMA as of the run date — two consecutive moving-average failures.
- ✗Fundamental consistency score of 30/100 and ROE exceeding 15% in only 1 of the tracked years reflect limited historical earnings durability.
