Wipro Q1FY22 Conference Call Highlights

Revenue growth of the Wipro share price analysis during the quarter was 12.2% in reported terms and 12% on constant currency terms, which is well ahead of the top end of their guidance range of Wipro share price history, both on an overall basis but also excluding Capco.
