Wipro Share Price

Wipro Ltd has announced that its Board of Directors will consider issuing bonus shares in an upcoming board meeting scheduled for October 16-17, 2024. The IT giant made this disclosure in a regulatory filing on October 13, 2024. In addition to discussing the bonus share proposal, Wipro is also set to announce its second-quarter financial results during the meeting.

According to the company’s filing, the decision on bonus shares will be made in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013, and regulations set by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). If approved, the bonus issue would reward shareholders by increasing the number of shares they own, though the overall value of their holdings would remain the same.

Wipro Share Price Updates

Wipro’s financial performance has been under scrutiny, particularly in the context of challenges faced by the IT sector. In the first quarter of FY25, Wipro reported a consolidated net profit of ₹3,003 crore, reflecting a 5.21% increase year-on-year. However, its consolidated revenue declined by 3.7% to ₹21,964 crore. Despite this revenue drop, the company managed to beat market expectations in terms of net profit growth.

Looking ahead to the second quarter, analysts predict that Wipro’s performance could show a marginal improvement, with quarter-on-quarter guidance ranging from -1% to +1%, thanks in part to gains in the US banking sector and contributions from its consulting arm, Capco. The upcoming quarterly results will provide a clearer picture of how Wipro has navigated these market conditions.

On the stock market, Wipro shares have shown some resilience. As of the close of trading on Friday, Wipro’s stock was priced at ₹528.45, a 0.66% increase for the day. Wipro’s first-quarter net profit had risen by 4.6% from the previous year, highlighting the company’s ability to generate profits despite revenue pressures.

The decision regarding the potential bonus share issue is likely to attract significant attention from investors, as bonus shares are often seen as a positive signal of confidence from the company’s leadership. All eyes will be on the board meeting on October 17 to see how Wipro plans to navigate both its financial outlook and its strategy to enhance shareholder value.
