Wipro Q1 FY27 Profit Flat Year-on-Year as Revenue Rises 11%, Declares Dividend
Wipro reported a consolidated net profit of approximately Rs 3,352-3,356 crore for Q1 FY27, marking a marginal year-on-year increase of around 0.6%. Revenue from operations rose about 10.6-11% to nearly Rs 24,479 crore. However, rising expenses, including employee costs and finance charges, limited profit growth and led to a sequential profit decline of around 4-5%. The company declared an interim dividend of Rs 2 per share and completed a significant share buyback. Wipro forecasted cautious Q2 guidance, expecting flat to slightly negative IT services revenue growth amid ongoing market uncertainties and AI-driven industry shifts.
