Wipro rating: Reduce; A muted start to the new fiscal
Posted on 23rd July 2019 |
.jpg) |
Wipro’s weak start to the year will lead to another year of mid-single digit growth. Financial services, the principal growth driver, may hit an air pocket. Rest of the verticals have not displayed enough muscle to paper over the gap that financial services can potentially create. Net result is a high chance that FY2020E growth could be similar or lower than FY2019 growth. We cut revenue growth estimates and retain our cautious view. Fair value is cut to Rs 260 (from Rs 270 earlier). |
