Wipro shares drop after weak first quarter forecast flags growth worries
Adds analysts comment, background, shares moves
BENGALURU, April 17 (Reuters) - Shares of Wipro WIPR.NS fell as much as 6.3% on Thursday after the company projected a weak June quarter, with analysts warning that the outlook signalled another tough year for the firm as global tech spending remained under pressure.
India's fourth biggest IT exporter on Wednesday forecast revenue in the first quarter to fall between 1.5% and 3.5% sequentially, with Chief Executive Srini Pallia saying "uncertainties have dramatically increased" heading into the new fiscal year.
"The first quarter guidance sets the stage for another challenging year following two years of revenue decline," analysts at Phillip Capital said, while others raised concerns that the results could derail the company's turnaround efforts under the new chief executive.
Pallia was appointed CEO in April 2024 after the abrupt departure of his predecessor, Thierry Delaporte, during whose tenure the company struggled to bag large deals, saw an exodus of top talent, and lost market share to rivals.
Several analysts said it was likely the company was facing a third year of revenue decline.
At least nine of the 39 analysts covering the stock have downgraded their ratings, while 20 have cut their price targets, according to data compiles by LSEG.
The average analyst rating remains "hold", while median price target has fallen by almost 14% to 250 rupees from a month back.
"Wipro's outlook was weaker than what the market anticipated," BOB Capital Markets said, adding that a weak start for fiscal 2026 was "probably a harbinger for a third successive year of negative revenue growth".
Shares of Wipro was trading down 5.5% as of 10:30 a.m. IST, falling 22.4% so far this year, outperforming Nifty IT index .NIFTYIT, which has fallen 24.8%.
Bigger rival Infosys INFY.NS was down 1.7% ahead of results due later in the day.

India's TCS warns US tariff chaos hurting client sentiment
Recasts throughout; adds CEO, analyst comments
By Haripriya Suresh and Sai Ishwarbharath B
BENGALURU, April 10 (Reuters) - India's top software-services exporter Tata Consultancy Services TCS.NS reported weaker-than-expected quarterly results on Thursday and warned uncertainty around U.S. tariffs was prompting clients to rethink discretionary projects.
The $283 billion Indian IT sector was counting on the Trump administration's business-friendly policies to revive client confidence and spending in its biggest market, but the U.S. tariff saga has soured expectations of any immediate upswing in fortunes.
"We had spoken about improving market sentiments and early signs of discretionary spend revival in January. This was not sustained due to many of the discussions around tariffs," TCS CEO K Krithivasan said in a press conference. "We are observing delays in decision-making and project-starting with respect to discretionary investments."
Krithivasan said the uncertainty was likely to settle over the "next few months" and he expects fiscal 2026 to be better than the prior year. The comments came a day after Trump said he would temporarily lower the hefty duties imposed on dozens of countries while ramping up pressure on China.
Industry watchers agreed.
"There should be some stability after two quarters as the dust from tariffs settle," NelsonHall analyst Gaurav Parab told Reuters.
TCS is the first major Indian IT firm to announce results for the fourth quarter. Smaller rivals Infosys INFY.NS, HCLTech HCLT.NS, Wipro WIPR.NS and Tech Mahindra TEML.NS will report in the coming weeks.
The Tata Group firm's net profit fell 1.69% to 122.24 billion rupees ($1.42 billion), while analysts on average expected 126.54 billion, per data compiled by LSEG. Revenue rose 5.3% to 644.79 billion rupees, missing analysts' estimates of 647.58 billion rupees.
Deal wins for the quarter stood at $12.2 billion, down from a record $13.2 billion in the same period last year.
Citing the uncertain business environment, TCS said it was yet to decide on annual wage hikes.
The company named Aarthi Subramanian as its chief operating officer and Mangesh Sathe as its chief strategy officer, effective May 1.

REFILE-Indian IT firms brace for impact as tariffs fan US recession fears
Corrects syntax in paragraph 1
By Haripriya Suresh
BENGALURU, April 4 (Reuters) - India's $283-billion IT sector should brace for a rough year ahead as tariffs are likely to stoke inflation in its key U.S. market and force clients to cut spending, analysts said.
Although President Donald Trump did not impose direct tariffs on IT services, Indian firms are expected to feel the heat as clients, especially in manufacturing, logistics and retail sectors, adjust to the new levies.
That could slow deal cycles, delay existing projects and hurt revenue growth, analysts said. Bernstein and ICICI Securities rushed to cut their ratings on the Indian IT sector soon after the tariff announcement.
The tariffs come at a time the sector was counting on Trump to revive client confidence and discretionary spending after years of weak revenue growth.
The U.S. accounts for more than half of India's $190 billion software exports, making the sector sensitive to shifts in spending confidence among businesses in the world's largest economy. J.P.Morgan on Friday lifted global and U.S. recession odds to 60% after Trump's tariff announcement.
"With a rising risk of U.S. recession and uncertain decision-making, we think chances of fiscal 2026 being a complete washout are rising," J.P. Morgan said in a note on Friday, without giving specific numbers.
At least six analysts expect Indian IT firms to issue a "conservative" annual revenue growth forecast when quarterly results start next week.
Companies with a greater exposure to discretionary spending are expected to bear the brunt of any tariff-fueled slowdown.
"Discretionary IT spend will likely see an impact across the industry verticals. Companies to get impacted will typically be the high-growth companies in the large caps and some of the mid-caps where the exposure usually is much higher on the discretionary side," BNP Paribas analyst Kumar Rakesh said.
He added the impact of a potential slowdown could be apparent by the September quarter.
India's Nifty IT index .NIFTYIT fell 3.6% on Friday to take its losses for the week to 9.15%, the steepest weekly fall for the index in more than five years.

India's Wipro wins $650 million deal from British insurer Phoenix Group
BENGALURU, March 26 (Reuters) - Wipro WIPR.NS, India's No.4 IT services provider, won a 10-year deal worth 500 million pounds ($645.4 million) from British insurer Phoenix Group PHNX.L, the company said on Wednesday, announcing its second mega deal this financial year.

The latest deal is for Phoenix Group's ReAssure business where Wipro will work on life and pension business administration.
Wipro will increase its presence in the United Kingdom and will set up hubs for both operations and technology which will staff employees from both companies, it said in a statement.
Some employees from Phoenix will also transition to Wipro, it said, but did not divulge numbers.
Wipro's Mumbai-listed shares closed 1.3% down on Wednesday. The statement came after the Indian stock market closed for the day.

Indian IT earnings likely to stutter in fiscal 2026 on US spending woes, analysts say
By Haripriya Suresh and Bharath Rajeswaran
BENGALURU, March 21 (Reuters) - India's information technology companies, among the worst-performing sectors this year, may not see a recovery in fiscal 2026, analysts said, after Accenture ACN.N flagged weak discretionary spending and demand in its quarterly report.
Accenture, the world's largest IT services player and a bellwether for the Indian IT industry, warned on Thursday that spending on discretionary projects in the quarter "was still constrained" and flagged no meaningful increase in client budgets.
Escalating global trade tensions following fresh U.S. tariffs on trading partners has sparked concerns over a slowdown in the United States - a key market for Indian IT companies.
"Whatever has happened in the last two months has created a higher level of uncertainty in terms of how the first half of fiscal 2026 will pan out and what impact it will have on the FY26 recovery rate," Amit Chandra, deputy vice president at HDFC Securities, told Reuters.
India's IT index is currently down 15.3% so far this year and is set for its worst quarter since June 2022. Top firms such as TCS TCS.NS, Wipro WIPR.NS, Infosys INFY.NS and HCLTech HCLT.NS lost between 11.2% and 18.1% this year.
Analysts at Kotak Institutional Equities said softening demand recovery and weak mega deal flow in fiscal 2025 will result in lower incremental revenue from mega deals in fiscal 2026 for Indian Tier-1 IT. "Companies will also face net headwinds from early stages of gen AI adoption," they said.
Citi Research has estimated that IT companies in its coverage could see revenue growth of 4% in fiscal 2026, similar to fiscal 2025, while Morgan Stanley expects growth assumption to be hurt due to subdued client spending.
According to Chandra, while banking, financial services, and insurance (BFSI) and healthcare verticals showed signs of recovery, the last two months' uncertainty has meant that clients across sectors are "going into a wait-and-watch mode", and can likely curtail spends.
Accenture also largely flagged delays and cancellations of new contracts in the U.S. due to the Trump administration's moves. However, while "Indian IT has limited exposure," according to Citi analysts, this can "increase competitive intensity in other segments".

India's Wipro to redraw global business lines
Adds details from paragraph 2
BENGALURU, March 14 (Reuters) - Indian IT major Wipro WIPR.NS is realigning its four global business lines from April 1 to better address client needs, the company said on Friday.
This is its first rejig after CEO Srinivas Pallia took over the role in April 2024, and comes two years after a similar move under former top boss Thierry Delaporte.
Wipro has brought all cloud, data, analytics and AI, and other related businesses under its tech services business line. Its head of cloud resigned on Friday.
The company's consulting business line will be headed by Amit Kumar, who was hired from Accenture Consulting ACN.N last month.
"This evolution of our business lines will enable us to further sharpen our focus towards client needs with consulting-led and AI-powered solutions," Pallia said in a statement.
Following the overhaul, Capco - Wipro's largest acquisition - will operate separately under the consulting business line with Capco's head reporting to Pallia. Its Designit business will go under the tech services business line. Both acquired companies were previously under the consulting business.
Apart from the existing engineering business line, the company also announced a fourth newly created line called Business Process Services, with Jasjit Kang as its head.

Cognizant forecasts 2025 revenue below estimates as businesses temper IT spending
Adds details, executive comment in paragraph 3,4
Feb 5 (Reuters) - Cognizant Technology Solutions CTSH.O forecast annual revenue below estimates on Wednesday, as uncertainty about the path of future interest rate cuts forces companies to temper spending on IT services and consultancy.
Persistent high capital costs continue to strain IT spending, prompting enterprises to rethink spending on consultancy services while prioritizing investments in AI-related projects.
Still, an increase in spending by clients in the financial services sector helped Cognizant win more large deals in the fourth quarter than a year earlier, powering its quarterly revenue above Wall Street expectations.
"In North America, we are seeing an improved pipeline of opportunities for transformation and modernization projects across both insurance and select ADRs of banking and financial services clients," finance chief Jatin Dalal said.
The company's fourth-quarter revenue stood at $5.08 billion, compared to analysts' expectations of $5.07 billion, according to data compiled by LSEG.
Cognizant's adjusted profit came in at $1.21 per share in the quarter ended December 31, compared with analysts' average estimate of $1.12 per share.
The New Jersey-based company said it expects first-quarter revenue in the range of $5 billion to $5.1 billion, compared with analysts' average estimate of $5.06 billion.
Cognizant expects its 2025 revenue to be between $20.30 billion and $20.80 billion, lower than estimates of $20.89 billion compiled by LSEG.
It projected 2025 adjusted earnings between $4.90 per share and $5.06 per share. The midpoint of the forecast is $4.98 per share, compared with analysts' average estimate of $4.99 per share.

Feb 5 (Reuters) - Cognizant Technology Solutions CTSH.O forecast annual revenue below estimates on Wednesday, as uncertainty about the path of future interest rate cuts forces companies to temper spending on IT services and consultancy.

Uncertainty around rate cuts by the U.S. Federal Reserve this year is exacerbated by President Donald Trump's changes to immigration policies, tariffs and other initiatives, forcing companies to limit spending.

India's TCS counts on Trump to boost US client spending
Q3 net profit 123.80 bln rupees vs forecast 123.99 bln
Q3 consolidated revenue 639.73 bln rupees vs forecast 644.52 bln
Order book $10.2 bln vs $8.6 bln in Q2
Recasts paragraph 1, adds CEO quotes from paragraph 3
By Sai Ishwarbharath B and Haripriya Suresh
BENGALURU/MUMBAI, Jan 9 (Reuters) - India’s No. 1 software services exporter Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) TCS.NS said on Thursday it is betting on Donald Trump's regime to revive client confidence and discretionary spending in North America.
The comments came after the leader of the $254 billion Indian IT sector reported a decline in North American revenue for the fifth-straight quarter.
“Once the new (U.S.) administration comes in, it will remove any policy uncertainty,” TCS CEO K Krithivasan said in a post-earnings press conference.
Pointing also to a higher order book, Krithivasan said: “All of this together, we see more confidence in discretionary programmes in the coming years.”
The Mumbai-based company also declared a special dividend of 66 rupees ($0.7691) per share.
Consolidated revenue at the Tata Group firm rose 5.6% to 639.73 billion rupees in the October-December quarter, but missed analysts' average estimate of 644.52 billion rupees, according to data compiled by LSEG.
TCS' quarterly net profit rose 12% to 123.80 billion rupees, against analysts' mean estimate of 123.99 billion rupees.
"Revenue growth was below expectations but the third quarter is a seasonally weak one as most clients ramp down operations due to the holiday season," said Piyush Pandey, analyst at Centrum Broking.
Pandey, however, highlighted deal wins and operating margin improvement as "positives" that may aid a turnaround in the United States in the coming quarters.
India's IT services industry has been facing a growth slowdown over the last couple of years due to clients in the U.S. and Europe cutting down on tech spending amid economic pressures.
The company's total order book stood at $10.2 billion in the quarter, compared with $8.6 billion in the previous quarter and $8.1 billion in the year-ago period.
TCS is the first major IT firm to report numbers in the current earnings cycle. Smaller rivals Infosys INFY.NS, HCLTech HCLT.NS, Wipro WIPR.NS will report next week.
The Mumbai-listed shares closed 1.7% lower ahead of the results.
