Wipro revenue down 3% from March quarter as clients cut spend

BENGALURU: Wipro’s performance continues to lag its peers as its revenue declined 2. 8% sequentially in constant currency in the June quarter. Wipro had forecast its revenue to grow between -3% to -1% in the June quarter. In dollar terms, its revenue in constant currency rose 1. 1% year-on-year to $2. 7 billion.

The sequential decline in its revenue was led by energy and utilities (down 4. 9%), followed by financial services (down 4. 3%), consumer (down 3. 5%).

Wipro CEO Thierry Delaporte said in almost every industry, businesses have been reducing discretionary spends in response to the weaker macro environment. “That’s had an impact on our revenues as well,” he said.
