- Jefferies raised its Wipro target from INR 150.00 to INR 155.00 on October 16, 2026.
- Wipro's second-quarter operating margin reached 16.50 percent, up 0.50 percentage points sequentially.
- Wipro stock traded at EUR 1.87 at 9:28 a.m. CET at Lang & Schwarz on October 27, 2026.

Wipro Limited (US97651M1099) lifted its September-quarter operating margin to 16.50 percent, an increase of 0.50 percentage points from the previous quarter. The result came as Jefferies raised its target for Wipro from INR 150.00 to INR 155.00 on October 16, 2026, while retaining an Underperform rating, as NDTV Profit reported.
September results set the tone
Wipro reported revenue of INR 247.53 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, up 9.10 percent year over year. Net income fell 1.90 percent year over year to INR 32.00 billion, while operating cash flow rose 61.30 percent sequentially to INR 53.00 billion, according to the company's investor release dated October 15, 2026, available from Wipro.
The contrast matters for investors. Revenue and cash generation improved, but bookings weakened: total bookings fell 22.90 percent sequentially in constant-currency terms to USD 2.595 billion, while large-deal bookings dropped 58.60 percent to USD 674.00 million.
What does guidance mean for margins?
Wipro guided IT services revenue for the quarter ending December 31, 2026, to USD 2.571 billion to USD 2.625 billion, equivalent to a constant-currency sequential change of minus 1.50 percent to plus 0.50 percent, as Moneycontrol reported on October 15, 2026. That range places execution and deal conversion ahead of margin expansion as the central operating question.
Three dated Wipro markers
On October 15, 2026, Wipro reported 16.50 percent operating margin for its second quarter. On October 16, 2026, Jefferies raised its target from INR 150.00 to INR 155.00 while keeping Underperform, according to NDTV Profit. On October 26, 2026, Wipro's India-listed shares closed at INR 189.00, down 0.40 percent.
