IT services major Wipro has revised its revenue guidance for the April-June 2021 quarter to 8-10 percent after the company completed the acquisition of Capco’s acquisition.
Wipro said it now expects Q1FY21 revenue from its IT services business to be in the range of $2,324 million to $2,367 million. Wipro's earlier guidance was $2,195-2,238 million.
“This translates to a sequential growth of 8.0 percent to 10.0 percent,” Wipro said in a regulatory filing. The company had earlier guided for 2-4 percent revenue growth.
This does not include the revenue from the acquisition of Australian based cyber security and engineering services firm Ampion for $117 million, it added.
