Reacting to the results, data collated by Zee Business TV Research Team showed that two global investment banks raised their target price on Wipro post September quarter results.

Macquarie maintains an outperform rating on Wipro and raised its 12-month target price to Rs 780, from Rs 764 earlier. The 2-3% change in FY22-24E EPS was the result of higher revenue.

Wipro’s strong execution led to a revenue beat, said the note. Deal wins remain healthy with US$580 mn of wins in Q2’FY22. 

Another global investment bank, Credit Suisse maintains a neutral rating, and raised the target to Rs 725, from Rs 575 earlier.

The IT major reported a strong beat on the revenue growth. The operating margin beat was led by lower amortisation expense. The global investment bank increased FY22E/23E/24E EPS by 1%, 4%, 8%, respectively.
