Speaking on the reason for rise in Wipro share price, Sumeet Bagadia, Executive Director at Choice Broking said, "Wipro shares skyrocketed after the newsbreak of Wipro board mulling a buyback as its rival TCS announced one yesterday. There was already a positive bias in the IT stocks and this newsbreak helped Wipro stock to outperform other IT stocks."

On Wipro share outlook, Bagadia said, "Wipro share price is trading in the range of Rs 340 to Rs 370 and profit-booking around 365 to Rs 370 levels is strongly expected. My suggestion is to wait for this profit-booking trigger and buy Wipro at around Rs 340-345 levels, maintaining the stop-loss at Rs 320. Once it breaks the upper Rs 370 hurdle it can soon shoot up to Rs 400-mark."
