Wipro (₹197.91) trades below both its 50-DMA (₹198.91) and 200-DMA (₹231.32), with a 25.66% drawdown from its 52-week high and a 14.17% decline over 12 months. PE of 15.74 is the second-lowest in the IT peer group, while ROE of 15.49% is the lowest among the six large-cap IT names tracked. The company approved a ₹15,000 crore buyback alongside Q4 results that missed revenue estimates and guided for a weak Q1 FY27.

Pros
  • PE of 15.74 is the second-lowest among the six tracked IT peers (TECHM: 26.99, LTM: 25.77, TCS: 17.63, HCLTECH: 19.54), reflecting a meaningful valuation discount to most sector names.
  • Free cash flow has been positive in 4 of the tracked years, and the debt trend is described as flat, indicating the balance sheet has not deteriorated despite muted earnings growth.
  • Dividend yield of 8.59% is notable for a large-cap IT company; the ₹15,000 crore buyback announced in April 2026 is the largest in the company's history.
  • Revenue has grown at a 5-year CAGR of 7.7%, indicating the top line has expanded even as earnings growth lagged.
Cons
  • ROE of 15.49% ranks last among six tracked IT peers and has been above the 15% threshold for only 2 of the available historical years, reflecting weak and inconsistent return on equity.
  • 5-year earnings growth of -1.6% shows that bottom-line performance has not kept pace with revenue expansion, with profit declining on a compounded basis over the period.
  • Price has been below the 200-DMA for an extended period; the 25.66% drawdown from the 52-week high and 15.18% decline over 3 months reflect sustained and accelerating downward price movement.
  • Quality score of 46 ranks 4th of 6 IT peers, and the persistence consistency score of 39 is the weakest in the group, signalling structural underperformance relative to sector leaders.
Recent context
  • ·Q4 FY26 results (April 2026): net profit rose ~12% quarter-on-quarter but missed revenue estimates; Reuters noted a weak Q1 FY27 forecast overshadowed the record buyback announcement.
  • ·Wipro's board approved a ₹15,000 crore buyback — the largest in company history — and separately announced acquisition of select contracts of California-based Alpha Net for ₹660 crore, signalling continued inorganic expansion efforts.
  • ·Mean analyst rating of 3.18 across 40 analysts (1–5 scale, lower = more constructive) positions Wipro toward the middle of the analyst opinion spectrum within its coverage universe.
Questions to ask yourself
  • ?Does the gap between 7.7% revenue CAGR and -1.6% earnings CAGR reflect temporary margin headwinds (wage cycles, deal ramp costs) or a structural shift in Wipro's operating leverage?
  • ?Is the ₹15,000 crore buyback a signal of confidence in the balance sheet, or does it limit future M&A firepower at a time when organic growth is under pressure?
  • ?How does Wipro's ROE trajectory compare to its own 10-year history, and at what point — if any — has it previously recovered from sub-15% ROE periods?
  • ?Given that the IT sector's peer priceChange1Y data is unavailable, how has Wipro's 12-month price decline of -14.17% compared to sector-wide moves during the same period?
