Wipro Ltd

WIPRO
IT - Software

Wipro Ltd's earnings have outrun its stock. EPS grew +0.3% in a year against a −34.1% price move.

The sharpest disagreement: annual EPS moved +0.3% against a −34.1% price move — the market has not yet caught up with the delivery.

The price is in a downtrend (23 weeks in) while the P/E sits at the 5th percentile of its own 10-year range. Underneath, the last four quarters read improving — profit +0.6% year on year, and 132% of the last 3 years' profit arrived as cash. What settles it: whether the price catches up with earnings that have already moved.

01 · Price story

Price story Before the numbers, the tape. A stock price moves through four repeating seasons: a flat base (stage 1), an advance (2), a top (3), a decline (4). Where the price sits in that cycle frames everything below.

Wipro Ltd trades at ₹176, in a downtrend and 23 weeks into that stage. That is −17.4% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 6% of a 52-week range of ₹170 to ₹269. On relative strength it is currently behind the NIFTY 500 on a trailing-13-week view (11 weeks and counting).

Today the stock is in a downtrend — week 23 of stage 4, confirmed. At ₹176 it trades −17.4% versus its 200-day average and sits at 6% of its 52-week range (₹170–₹269).

Jul 26: ₹176 Weekly closing price (₹) with 50- and 200-day averages; shaded bands mark the price stage (grey base, green advance, amber top, red decline). 3-year window.

Mar 16Jul 26

Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 10.3 years the stock moved +74% while the NIFTY 500 moved +274% — behind the index over the full window. Recent form: on a trailing-13-week view the stock is currently behind (11 weeks and counting; last ahead the week of 2026-06-04) — the ribbon below is that same metric, week by week.

What would end the trend, mechanically: two Friday closes in a row below the 200-day line. That is the exit rule — no debates.

→ The trend is one thing; the bill is another. Are you paying up for it? Next: the P/E sits at the 5th percentile of its own range.

02 · Valuation

Valuation P/E is the price of ₹1 of annual profit: how many rupees the market pays for each rupee the company earns in a year.

Wipro Ltd trades at 13.3× P/E, near the bottom of its own range — cheaper only 5% of the time. Its long-run median P/E is 18.8×, measured across 10.4 years of weekly readings. This places the multiple against the stock’s own record, and says nothing about what the business is worth.

Today's P/E of 13.3× is near the bottom of its own range — cheaper only 5% of the time, against a long-run median of 18.8× measured over 10.4 years of weekly readings. This is a comparison against the stock's own history — not a claim about what it is worth.

The dashed line marks 1.0: below it the growth is cheap against the multiple, above it the price already prices the growth in. Computed here as quarter-end P/E ÷ trailing-twelve-month EPS growth (only quarters with positive growth), because a reported quarterly PEG is not held for this stock.

derived from 3-year earnings growth

Why the multiple sits where it does: over the past year annual EPS moved +0.3% against a −34.1% price move — earnings outran the price, pushing the multiple DOWN its own range.

The price move, decomposed: over 5y, of the −9.4%/yr price move, ~+4.2%/yr came from earnings growth and ~−13.6 pp from the multiple (compressing); over 10y, of the +5.4%/yr price move, ~+6.7%/yr came from earnings growth and ~−1.3 pp from the multiple (compressing). The split is the honest approximate (price return minus earnings growth); it makes the rally itself visible instead of hiding it behind the percentile.

Put together: the multiple is low against its own past, so the story rests on the earnings line underneath it, not the multiple.

→ Cheap or dear rides on the earnings. Are they actually growing? Next: the fundamental stage — where the business sits in its arc, and how growth has compounded.

03 · Stage: Topping out

Stage: Topping out Every business sits somewhere on a fundamental arc, and this page names the spot before anything else. The last twelve quarters of revenue, profit and EPS growth — plus the return the business earns on its capital — are read as curves: Deteriorating (the curves are falling), Turning around (a trough has just formed and the last few quarters lift off it), Improving (the climb off the trough is sustained), Consistent (steadily positive with healthy returns), Topping out (still high but decelerating from the peak). When the curves genuinely disagree the read is Mixed; too little history is No read. CAGR (compound annual growth rate) is the smooth yearly pace that turns the starting value into the latest one — the fairest way to compare growth across different time spans. Read the columns together: if the 1-year number towers over the 10-year, recent growth is running hotter than the long-run trend. A dash means that window is not held, or the base year was a loss (where a growth rate is not meaningful).

Wipro Ltd reads as topping out on its fundamental arc. Topping out — profit and EPS growth have decelerated hard (profit growth +19.0% at its peak → −1.7% latest) while ROCE still reads 18.0%. The read is built from 12 quarters across 4 curves, on partial evidence.

Three growth curves, twelve quarters Year-on-year growth of trailing-twelve-month revenue (left axis), profit and EPS (right axis — they swing far wider), % at each quarter-end. A missing point means that reading is not held for the quarter.

Why it matters: decelerating from a peak is where good stories quietly end — the multiple usually notices late.

Return readings here are annual, not quarterly — read as level and direction only; they can confirm the growth curves but never drive the stage on their own.

A partial read: at least one curve is short, or the returns curve is not the computed quarterly series — hold the stage word a little more loosely.

4-Factor Sector Score

49.2/100 — rank 34 of 63 in IT - Software · 91% evidence confidence

Wipro Ltd scores 49.2 out of 100 against the 63 companies it is compared with in IT - Software, ranking 34. Cheap but unconfirmed: require improving earnings before treating the valuation as an opportunity.

The four contributions add to the total exactly: 14 + 13.7 + 13.2 + 8.3 = 49.2. This is the SAME number shown on the sector comparison — it is computed once, for the whole peer set, and read here.

What would change it: The read weakens if profit growth turns negative or margin improvement reverses while sector-relative strength deteriorates.

05 · Revenue

Revenue Revenue is the top line: everything the company billed its customers in the period.

Wipro Ltd reported ₹24,479 Cr of revenue in the Jun 26 quarter, +10.6% year on year. That is the 7th straight quarter of year-on-year growth. Over 10 years it has compounded at 6.1% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹92,624 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹94,968 Cr.

Pace check: the last four quarters averaged +6.4% growth against the decade's 6.1% — the current year is running in line with its own long-run rate.

Acceleration check: trailing-twelve-month revenue grew +6.4% over the last 4 quarters against +3.4%/yr over the last 8 — stabilising; TTM profit −1.7% vs +8.6%/yr — rolling over.

→ Revenue grew — did margins hold as it scaled? Next: 19.0% this quarter (+0.0 pp YoY).

06 · Operating margin

Operating margin Operating margin is what is left of every ₹100 of sales after running the business, before interest and tax. It is the cleanest read on pricing power and cost control.

Wipro Ltd's operating margin is 19.0% in the Jun 26 quarter, +0.0 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 19.0% to 24.0%. The current quarter sits inside that band.

Wipro Ltd's operating margin is 19.0% in the Jun 26 quarter, +0.0 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 19.0% to 24.0%. The current quarter sits inside that band.

The latest quarter's operating margin is 19.0%, +0.0 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 19.0%–24.0%.

🚨 Why the margin moved: operating margin went −0.2 pp year on year while gross margin went −0.1 pp — the loss came mostly below the gross line: operating leverage, with costs spread over a bigger revenue base.

→ Margins held — did that reach the bottom line? Next: profit +0.6% in the latest quarter.

07 · Net profit

Net profit Net profit is what survives every cost, interest and tax — the number EPS, dividends and book value all grow from.

Wipro Ltd earned ₹3,356 Cr of net profit in the Jun 26 quarter, +0.6% year on year. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹13,266 Cr. The 10-year compound rate is 4.0%. That is 13.7% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹3,336 Cr.

Why profit moved: revenue contributed +10.6% and the margin +0.0 pp — the quarter was revenue-led, with the margin roughly flat.

Pace comparison, last four quarters: profit −1.7% vs revenue +6.4%. Profit is growing slower than sales — costs are eating the growth before it reaches the bottom line.

→ Profit rose — but did the cash follow? Next: 132% of the last 3 years' profit arrived as cash.

08 · Cash flow — the router

Cash flow — the router The P&L says what was earned; the cash-flow statement says what actually arrived. Operating cash flow (CFO) against profit is the cleanest lie detector in the accounts.

Over the last 3 fiscal years 132% of Wipro Ltd's reported profit arrived as operating cash — the cash follows the profit. In FY26 that was ₹14,932 Cr of operating cash against ₹13,266 Cr of profit. After ₹9,630 Cr of capital spending, ₹5,302 Cr was left as free cash.

FY26: operating cash of ₹14,932 Cr against reported profit of ₹13,266 Cr, leaving free cash of ₹5,302 Cr after ₹9,630 Cr of capital spending. Across the last 3 fiscal years the conversion rate is 132% of profit.

Cash-flow readings here are annual — that is the resolution our series carries, so this section moves once a year.

Why conversion sits at 132%: the cash cycle held roughly steady between FY21 and FY26 — so conversion tracks profitability rather than the cycle.

Router verdict: the bigger cash user is investment — capital spending ran 1.7× depreciation over three years, so the next section's job is to check what that build-out is buying.

→ So follow the cash to where it goes. Next: ₹16,004 Cr of building over 3 years.

09 · Where the cash goes

Where the cash goes Working capital is the cash tied up between paying suppliers and getting paid: debtor days (customers owe), inventory days (stock waits), and the cash conversion cycle (the whole loop, in days of sales).

Wipro Ltd's cash conversion cycle runs 54 days in FY26, down from 56 days in FY21. Capital spending ran ₹16,004 Cr over the last 3 years. At FY26 sales of ₹92,624 Cr each day of that cycle holds about ₹254 Cr, so roughly ₹13,703 Cr sits inside the business at any moment.

FY26: debtors at 54 days (an asset-light business — no inventory to speak of) — for a full cycle of 54 days, tighter than FY21's 56.

In money terms: at FY26 sales of ₹92,624 Cr, each day of the cycle holds about ₹254 Cr — so the 54-day loop keeps roughly ₹13,703 Cr sitting inside the business at any moment.

On the investment side: capital spending of ₹16,004 Cr over the last 3 fiscal years against ₹9,276 Cr of depreciation — the company is building well ahead of wear-and-tear. Capital work-in-progress stands at ₹412 Cr (FY26) — capacity paid for but not yet earning.

FY26: capex ₹9,630 Cr, work-in-progress ₹412 Cr Capital spending per fiscal year, ₹ Cr (bars); capital work-in-progress, ₹ Cr (line). Quarterly capital-spending history is not held for India — annual is the honest resolution.

The synthesis: the cash is going into capacity, not disappearing into the cycle — the question becomes whether the new capacity earns.

→ Does all this activity actually earn its cost of capital? Next: ROCE is 18% and the ROIC − WACC spread is +8.4 pp.

10 · Return on capital

Return on capital Return on capital employed (ROCE) is the profit the whole business earns on all the money in it — equity and debt together. It is the single best test of whether growth creates value or just size.

Wipro Ltd earns a ROCE of 18% in FY26. That is up from a trough of 17% in FY18. Return on invested capital clears the cost of that capital by +8.4 percentage points, so growth here adds value rather than only size. The wiring behind it is 14.3% net margin on 0.66× asset turns.

FY26 ROCE is 18%, recovered from a FY18 trough of 17% — the full ladder below shows the fall and the climb, undoctored.

Why the return is what it is — the wiring (FY26): 14.3% net margin × 0.66× asset turns × 1.60× balance-sheet leverage ≈ 15.1% on equity. Margin does its share; leverage is modest — this is an earned return, not a borrowed one.

The capstone test — ROIC − WACC: 20.4% − 12.0% = a +8.4 pp spread. The 12.0% is a standing assumption for the cost of capital in India, not a per-stock estimate — read the sign and the size of the spread, not the decimals. A spread this wide means every rupee reinvested creates more than a rupee of value — the engine compounds.

11 · Debt

Debt Debt-to-equity says how much of the business is funded by borrowings. Low is the safe corner; the trend matters as much as the level.

Wipro Ltd carries total debt of ₹21,282 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹77,677 Cr as of Jun 26, a debt-to-equity of 0.27 — effectively unlevered. On the annual view that ratio went from 0.27 in FY22 to 0.23 in FY26. The returns elsewhere on this page are therefore earned rather than borrowed.

Jun 26: total debt of ₹21,282 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹77,677 Cr — a debt-to-equity of 0.27. On the annual view, debt-to-equity went from 0.27 (FY22) to 0.23 (FY26). The returns on this page are earned, not borrowed.

→ Who owns this, and are they adding or leaving? Next: Domestic institutions cut 3.0 points over 8 quarters.

12 · Ownership

Ownership Who owns the stock, quarter by quarter: promoters (the controlling owners), foreign and domestic institutions, and the public. Steady accumulation by people close to the numbers is a signal; a quiet register is also an answer.

Domestic institutions cut 3.0 points of Wipro Ltd over 8 quarters, the biggest move on the register. That takes domestic institutions to 5.2% of the company. Foreign institutions moved +1.7 points over the same window, to 8.8%. The register is read on the four disclosed classes only; nothing is inferred between filings.

The register over the last two years — Domestic institutions: −3.0 points over 8 quarters to 5.2%; Foreign institutions: +1.7 points over 8 quarters to 8.8%; Promoters: −0.2 points over 8 quarters to 72.6%.

Why the register moved: rotation — foreign institutions +1.7 points against domestic institutions −3.0 points over 8 quarters, with promoters holding steady — one class of institutions handing the register to the other, not a verdict change by the people closest to the numbers.

Fiscal-year ends: promoters −0.3 pts from Mar 24 to Mar 26 Shareholding at each fiscal-year end (March quarter), % of the company. 3 year-ends held.

→ One last check: does the safety math agree? Next: the balance-sheet safety line.

13 · Safety line

Safety line The Z-score estimates how far a company sits from balance-sheet distress — above roughly 3 is safe, below roughly 1.8 is the danger zone. It was built for manufacturers, so it is not applied to banks and lenders.

Wipro Ltd: the Z-score reads 4.73. A Z-score above roughly 3 reads as safe and below roughly 1.8 as the distress zone, so this sits well clear of distress. It is a distance-to-distress estimate from the balance sheet, not a forecast of failure.

Why it matters: a Z-score of 4.73 sits well clear of the distress zone — the balance sheet is not the risk here.

The safety line in one sentence: the Z-score reads 4.73.

Related companies · same sector · IT - Software Every company is compared on the shape of its own curves, not static ratios. The Revenue, EPS and ROCE columns each draw that company's last 12 quarters as a mini line of the ACTUAL level (trailing-twelve-month revenue and EPS, and the ROCE itself) — so a line that climbs is a business getting bigger, a line that sinks is one shrinking. The colour tracks the same line: green when it is rising or steadily healthy, amber when it is rolling over from a high (still elevated but turning down), red when it is falling, grey when flat or stuck. Colour and direction always agree — a green line never points down. The ROCE curve is the return on capital (annual readings for peers, so a slightly coarser line than the quarterly one at the top of this page). The Stage column then runs the same 12-quarter trajectory classifier used at the top of the page on each company and names where it sits. What lands a company in each bucket: CONSISTENT — growth stays positive across the window and returns are healthy (ROCE ≥ 15%, or ROE ≥ 12% for lenders); IMPROVING — profit or EPS fell into real decline, bottomed a few quarters back, and has climbed back to positive and held there; TURNING AROUND — the same kind of trough but more recent, with the latest quarters just lifting off it (an early, unconfirmed turn); TOPPING OUT — growth is still positive but decelerating hard from its own peak while returns have stopped rising; DETERIORATING — two or more growth curves are shrinking (latest below zero) and staying there, not one soft quarter; MIXED — the curves genuinely disagree, or no clean majority, so no single word fits; NO READ — fewer than eight usable quarters. It is a like-for-like read of every company against its own past, not a ranking against the group.

Is Wipro Ltd beating the market?

Not lately — on a trailing-13-week view Wipro Ltd is currently behind the NIFTY 500 (11 weeks and counting; last ahead the week of 2026-06-04), the same metric the week-by-week ribbon on this page draws. Separately, on the cumulative view: over the last 10.3 years the stock moved +74% against the NIFTY 500's +274% — behind the index over the full window. — as of 24 July 2026.

This page publishes no price forecast for Wipro Ltd. What it measures instead: the share price is ₹176, the price is in a downtrend 23 weeks in. Its P/E of 13.3× sits at the 5th percentile of its own 10-year range. Direction is not something this site claims to know. — as of 24 July 2026.

No — Wipro Ltd's debt-to-equity is 0.23, and operating profit covers the interest bill 12×. FY26 borrowings were ₹20,291 Cr against equity of ₹88,019 Cr. The returns on this page are earned, not borrowed — as of 24 July 2026.

What is Wipro Ltd's capex?

Wipro Ltd spent ₹16,004 Cr on capital expenditure over the last 3 fiscal years, a figure derived from the change in fixed assets plus depreciation. In FY26 alone that was ₹9,630 Cr, with ₹412 Cr in capital work-in-progress — capacity paid for but not yet earning. — as of 24 July 2026.

What is Wipro Ltd's cash flow?

Profitability versus a company's own long band is the cleanest cycle clock this page holds — as of 24 July 2026.

What could break the Wipro Ltd story?

The sharpest disagreement: annual EPS moved +0.3% against a −34.1% price move — the market has not yet caught up with the delivery. Mechanically, two Friday closes in a row below the 200-day average would end the price trend — that is the exit rule this page tracks — as of 24 July 2026.

Is Wipro Ltd a stock worth studying right now?

This is not investment advice. The machine read: Wipro Ltd's earnings have outrun its stock. EPS grew +0.3% in a year against a −34.1% price move. The sharpest open question: whether the price catches up with earnings that have already moved. Every number on this page is drawn deterministically from the raw series, with no forecasts and no price opinions — as of 24 July 2026.
