Overview 
of the Report

Welcome to our 4th Integrated Report!

This  is  our  fourth  annual  report  aligned  to  the  principles  of  International 
Integrated Reporting Framework (referred to as  framework) developed 
by the International Integrated Reporting Council (IIRC).

In addition, the 2018-19 annual report is aligned to GRI* Standards required 
by  Sustainability  Reporting  Guidelines  of  Global  Reporting  Initiative  (GRI) 
and Business Responsibility Report (BRR) requirements of SEBI. The Natural 
Capital  section  of  this  report,  includes  the  recommendations  set  out  by 
the  Task  Force  on  Climate-related  Financial  Disclosures  (TCFD)  and  CDSB 
(Climate  Disclosures  Standards  Board)  framework.  All  these  (except  BRR) 
are global standards.

The  report  complies  with  financial  and  statutory  data  requirements  of  the 
Companies  Act,  2013  (including  the  Rules  made  thereunder,  Accounting 
Standards), the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations 
and  Disclosure  Requirements)  Regulations,  2015  and  the  Secretarial 
Standards.

The  topics  covered  in  the  report  were  identified  through  a  comprehensive 
process  that  included  an  internal  materiality  determination^  exercise, 
external  benchmarking  with  peers  and  sustainability  raters  as  well  as 
frameworks like the Sustainability Accounting Standard Board (SASB). 

At  Wipro,  stakeholder  engagement^  is  an  ongoing  process.  Identifying  and 
understanding stakeholders, their priorities and engaging with them is key 
to  materiality  determination.  The  report  incorporates  financial  and  non-
financial information – governance, environmental and social – in a manner 
that can help stakeholders understand how a company creates and sustains 
value over the long term.

Wipro LimitedOutperform.
With Wipro.

In  a  little  over  two  decades  of  existence,  the  internet  has 
changed  many  industries.  From  e-commerce  and  digital 
advertising  to  streaming  content,  hospitality  and  ride-
sharing;  many  industries  have  seen  a  redefinition  of  value 
chains by upstarts and technology savvy incumbents. But the 
visible change that we see today, powered by smart phones, 
plentiful bandwidth, social network and digital payments, is 
just the tip of the iceberg.

The  change  that’s  around  the  corner  in  the  next  two 
decades  will  dwarf  what  we  have  seen  so  far.  A  cohort  of 
innovation  streams  -  from  AI  to  Blockchain  to  3D  printing, 

will  redefine  many  other  sectors  even  more  dramatically.  
Large  enterprises  see  opportunities  in  this  disruption  to 
outperform,  not  just  in  today’s  businesses,  but  also  over 
longer  horizons.  Business  and  technology  leaders  in  these 
enterprises  need  to  become  adept  at  managing  innovation 
priorities, driving experimentation and scaling value creation 
on multiple fronts. 

At Wipro, our close partnerships with Global 2000 companies 
give  us  a  privileged  view  that  has  helped  us  identify  what 
drives  the  key  levers  of  outperformance  and  guided  our 
investments  in  new  capabilities  to  build  on  top  of  deep 
technology heritage. We understand how outperformance in 
rapidly changing markets takes more than trend chasing and 
silver  bullets.  A  sustainable  approach  to  outperformance 
needs  not  just  laying  deep  foundations  in  simplifying 
and  modernizing  the  IT  and  engineering  landscape  but 
also  embedding  trust  in  transactions,  relationships  and 
technologies.  Business 
transformation  creates  new 
experiences  and  new  value  propositions  for  customers  but 
needs an innovation approach that is ingrained in new ways 
working both within the enterprise and with the ecosystem 
outside.

Business Transformation:  Our  design-led  customer-centric 
approach  helped  a  large  Healthcare  Group  Procurement 
Organization to completely reimagine their business model 
to  an  e-commerce  market  place,  creating  an  end  to  end 
digital  experience  and  an  entirely  different  brand  for  the 
digital world. We helped one of the largest payment gateways 
to compete effectively with new-age fintechs in reimagining 
the on-boarding process for millions of small merchants to 
an  intuitive,  self-service  process,  crashing  cycle  time  from 
weeks to minutes.

Modernization: One of the largest airports in North America 
is winning awards for being the best in customer experience

baggage  and  fleet  tracking  from  minutes  to  seconds.  This 
was  an  outcome  of  an  engagement  where  we  partnered 
with  them  in  modernizing  their  technology  infrastructure 
by  leveraging  AI/ML,  IoT  and  Blockchain  solutions.  Another 
rewarding  engagement  was  in  automating  technology  and 
business  processes  of  the  largest  processors  of  employee 
health  and  wealth  insurance  providers,  which  resulted  in 
dramatically  improved  efficiency  and  experience  in  serving 
millions of their customers.

Connected  Intelligence:  By  embedding  IoT  and  Analytics 
competencies  into  information  pathways  and  business 
processes,  we  are  evolving  both  the  DNA  and  the  nervous 

system  of  outperforming  businesses.  We  helped  a  global 
industrial  pumps  business  rethink  asset  maintenance  and 
operations  to  improve  customer  satisfaction  and  discover 
new service revenue streams. Our intelligent pricing engine 
has  helped  improve  pricing  recommendation  and  workflow 
implementation  for  a  global  consumer  goods  company, 
resulting in an estimated 5% increase in revenue.

Trust:  As  we  helped  blueprint  and  execute  a  move  to  the 
cloud for a global nutrition major, we consolidated security 
policies  and  processes  across  197  countries,  ensuring 
local compliance and removing bottlenecks. As a result, we 
helped them achieve an enhanced security posture with the 
implementation  of  next  generation  security  controls  and 
a  cyber  defense  platform  with  advanced  threat  detection 
capabilities. We also leveraged our expertise to help a global 
life sciences enterprise operating in 71 countries to achieve 
GDPR compliance in a timely and orderly fashion.

Wipro LimitedChairman’s Letter to 
the Stakeholders

Dear Stakeholders,

This  year,  we  embark  on  our  75th  year  of  creating  value  for 
our stakeholders. It is an important milestone for us and we 
take great pride in how Wipro is an exemplar of a successful, 
ethical  and  a  socially  responsible  organization.  If  we  look 
back  at  the  Wipro  journey  in  the  last  seven  decades,  from 
a  small  vegetable  oil  company  to  a  leading  information 
technology  company  that  we  are  today,  we  have  evolved 
by  constantly  re-inventing  ourselves  and  creating  newer 
opportunities. This  has  been  possible  because  of  the  deep 
commitment and hard work of Wiproites and the core values 
that have remained our guiding light. 

Along the journey, we have focused on continuous evaluation 
of  the  capabilities  we  need  to  win.  This  year  as  a  part  of 
the  strategic  plan  exercise,  we  identified  four  technologies 
that will lead us into the future - Digital, Cloud, Engineering 
Services  and  Cyber  Security.  Based  on  the  approval  from 
the  Board,  we  have  decided  to  step  up  our  investments 
significantly  in  these  four  big  bets.  Furthermore,  we  also 

divested  our  datacenter  business  which  has  improved  our 
return on capital employed. 

We are committed to enhancing value for our stakeholders.

Our EPS for the year ended March 31, 2019 grew by 18.6% 
YoY,  which  was  the  best  in  the  last  5  years.  We  improved 
our  working  capital  substantially  and  our  free  cash  flows 
was  robust  at  106%  of  our  net  profits.  We  have  a  capital 
allocation philosophy of providing regular and stable payout 
to  investors  keeping  two  important  considerations,  one 
that  of  building  long  term  stakeholder  value  and  two  that 
allows  us  to  make  required  investments  for  future  growth. 
Consistent  with  this  philosophy,  we  declared  a  dividend  of 
` 1 per share, completed a bonus issue of one equity share 
for  every  three  held  in  March  2019  and  also  announced  a 
buyback of ` 105 billion through buyback to the shareholders 
in April 2019. The shareholders have approved the proposal 
to buyback equity shares of the company and the process is 
likely to be completed by August 2019.

Annual Report 2018-19We remain committed to building a glorious future.

I  am  pleased  to  share  that  Rishad  Premji,  Chief  Strategy 
Officer  and  Member  of  the  Board,  will  take  over  as  the 
Executive  Chairman  of  Wipro  Limited  with  effect  from  July 
31,  2019.  Rishad  brings  to  this  role  new  ways  of  thinking, 
experience, and competence that will lead Wipro to greater 
heights. He has been an integral part of the leadership team 
since 2007, and has a deep understanding of the company, 
business  strategy,  culture  and  heritage.  He  is  also  deeply 
committed to the values which form the bedrock of Wipro. I 
will continue to serve on the Board of Wipro Limited as Non- 
Executive  Director  and  Founder  Chairman  while  dedicating 
most  of  my  time  and  energy  to  the  philanthropic  efforts  of 
the Foundation.

Leading  Wipro  from  1966  till  now  has  been  the  greatest 
privilege  of  my  life,  it  has  been  an  extraordinary  journey.  I 
want to thank the generations of Wiproites and their families 
for their contribution towards building our company to what 
it  is  today.  I  am  grateful  to  our  clients,  partners,  and  other 
stakeholders who have reposed trust and confidence in us.

Wipro  will  continually  transform  to  scale  new  heights  as 
the  world  changes  while  remaining  firmly  committed  to 
its  values.  I  am  confident  that  the  future  of  Wipro  will  far 
outshine anything that we have done before. 

Very Sincerely,

Azim Premji

As  a  large  technology  company  which  employs  170,000+ 
people,  we  have  the  responsibility  to  drive  an  inclusive 
growth.  Technologies  like  digital  and  AI  are  disrupting 
the  way  services  are  rendered  and  the  ability  to  learn 
becomes  vital  for  our  employees.  At  Wipro,  we  have  made 
significant  investments  in  re-skilling  our  employees  in 
digital  technologies.  There  are  three  levels  of  training 
that  start  from  awareness  programs,  extensive  learning 
programs  through  virtual  labs  and  immersive  programs 
that  provide  opportunities  to  build  deep  expertise.  We  are 
also  using  TopGear,  our  social  learning  and  crowdsourcing 
platform as a workforce transformation tool as it has 2000+ 
learning assignments across 200+ skills. Today, we already 
have  55,000+  employees  on  TopGear.  Localization  is  an 
important initiative we are driving to create a global, diverse 
and distributed talent base. In the last few years of running 
this  program  we  have  successfully  localized  all  our  major 
markets  like  USA,  UK,  Australia,  Canada,  Singapore,  Africa 
and Middle East. 

We  are  acutely  aware  that  much  of  the  economic  progress 
in  the  world  has  come  at  the  cost  of  climate  change  and 
therefore  we  have  a  responsibility  towards  creating  a 
sustainable  community.  We  have  significantly  scaled  up 
renewable  energy  for  our  operations,  contributing  to  40% 
of  our  total  consumption.  Recycled  water  now  contributes 
to  42  %  of  our  total  water  usage.  Education,  has  been  the 
primary focus of our work for close to two decades now. Till 
date,  we  have  partnered  with  166  organizations  working  in 
school education. Wipro Earthian, a sustainability education 
program  focused  on  water  and  bio-diversity,  has  reached 
out  to  8,600  schools  over  the  last  nine  years.  The  Wipro 
Science Education fellowship in the USA, which we started 
in  2013,  works  in  seven  sites  across  35  school  districts  on 
improving  STEM  learning  in  schools  serving  disadvantaged 
communities.  This  year,  we  are  collaborating  with  Kings 
College  London  and  Sheffield  Hallam  University  to  provide 
rigorous  continuous  professional  development  to  STEM 
teachers  working  in  government  designated  ‘opportunity 
areas’ in the UK, which by definition have a high proportion 
of failing-schools.

Through  Wipro  cares,  our  employee  giving  program,  we 
have  worked  on  education  for  disadvantaged  children  and 
children  with  disabilities  and  worked  with  partners  who 
provide quality primary health care services to underserved 
communities.  My  own  thinking  of  wealth  &  philanthropy 
is  that  we  must  remain ‘trustees’  of  our  wealth  for  society, 
not  its  owners.  As  announced  earlier,  I  have  irrevocably 
renounced  more  of  my  personal  assets  and  earmarked 
them  to  the  endowment  which  supports  the  Azim  Premji 
Foundation’s philanthropic activities. The total value of the 
philanthropic  endowment  corpus  contributed  over  time  is 
~USD 21 billion, which includes 67% of economic ownership 
of Wipro Limited.

Wipro Limited  
  
 
CEO’s Letter to the 
Stakeholders

Dear Stakeholders,

We  are  in  an  exciting  time  in  history  where  transformative 
digital  technologies  are  emerging  at  an  unprecedented 
rate  and  technology  is  becoming  the  core  for  all  products 
and  services  across 
industries.  Established  business 
models  are  being  challenged  to  give  way  to  new.  To  stay 
ahead  of  the  curve  as  our  client  enterprises  undergo  this 
rapid transformation, we have anchored our efforts on first 
understanding  how  our  customers’  needs  could  change 
and  then  building  our  capability  to  deliver  to  those  needs. 
I can see the outcome of those focused efforts when in my 
conversations with our customers, there is a shift from “how 
can Wipro help us execute better” to ‘how can Wipro help us 
transform & innovate”. Our customers are now trusting Wipro 
to  do  more  and  we  are  ready  to  be  the  partner  that  helps 
them outperform. 

We  have  sharpened  our  strategy  into  four  pillars  based  on 
what  our  customers  need  i.e.  Business  Transformation, 
Modernization, Connected Intelligence and Trust. In order to 
build the capability that is needed to deliver these strategies, 
we have been investing significantly in the four areas of big 
bet which are Digital, Cloud, Engineering Services and Cyber 
Security.  Our  Digital  revenues  grew  by  32% YoY.  Our  largest 
deal win to date of $1.5 billion, is a testimony to the capabilities 

14

we have in enterprise scale modernization & transformation. 
Our AI-First strategy and differentiated assets such as Data 
Discovery  Platform  are  being  well  received  in  the  market 
which is reflected in the double digital growth of DAAI (10% 
YoY  in  constant  currency).  Our  big  bet  in  Cybersecurity  is 
central to our Trust pillar. We are scaling assets such as our 
Cyber Defense Assurance Platform and working with security 
ecosystem partners and governing bodies. Cyber security as 
a  service  offering  which  forms  4%  of  the  revenues  grew  at 
16% YoY (in constant currency) in FY 2019.

There were several green shoots in our overall performance 
as we built the momentum consistently through the year. On 
a full year basis, we grew 5.4% in constant currency. Two of 
the business units BFSI and CBU grew by 16% and 10% (in 
constant currency) respectively. Our operating margins have 
improved by 1.8% on full year basis because of our relentless 
focus on the quality of revenues. 

I  am  sharing  with  you  an  update  on  how  we  have  been 
progressing across the 6 key themes that we have outlined 
to serve our customers better.

Annual Report 2018-19Digital & Consulting

Open Innovation

Our  customers  are  no  longer  asking  if  or  why  digital 
transformation should be a top priority. The question now for 
enterprises is how to make it real and how to show outcomes. 
As  a  result,  digital  is  ubiquitous  and  at  the  forefront  of  all 
our offerings. The strength that we have built in our Digital 
practice  through  the  last  few  years  has  helped  transform 
customers into digital businesses, changing how they work 
in  order  to  deliver  new  product  and  service  experiences. 
We are a partner of choice to our customers because of our 
differentiated  talent,  end-to-end  capabilities  that  enable 
us  to  execute  leveraging  our  IP  and  process  and  transform 
to  new  ways  of  working  for  the  customer.  Our  4  M’s  focus 
-  method,  model,  mindset  and  machinery  enable  the  full 
engineering and business transformation for our customers. 
For  the  year,  Digital  grew  from  27%  of  revenue  in  Q4’18  to 
35% of revenues as of Q4’19. Consulting which is 7% of our 
Revenues grew by 19% YoY.

Client Mining 

Our biggest assets are our customer relationships and there 
is  no  better  endorsement  of  our  capabilities  than  the  faith 
that  our  customers  repose  in  us.  We  believe  in  delivering 
not only what we promise but also go beyond and meet the 
unsaid  expectations.  We  continue  to  take  proactive  ideas 
which  leverage  our  investments  contextualized  for  the 
customer. Our Net Promoter Scores (NPS), improved by 511 
basis points in FY 2019 over FY 2018. Our top ten clients grew 
9.6% for the year and we added 2 clients in the >$ 50 million 
bucket. 

Process & IT estate Modernization

Simplifying  complex  customer  processes  and  technology 
through cloud enablement, creating APIs and driving hyper 
automation  forms  the  foundation  for  effective  digital 
transformation  for  our  customers.  Wipro  HOLMESTM,  our 
proprietary platform for automation is now deployed across 
350+  customers  to  hyper-automate  processes  and  offload 
specific  cognitive  tasks  to  the  artificial  intelligence  (“AI”) 
platform  to  gain  cost  efficiencies,  agility  and  enhanced 
user experience. In Q4’19, work done by BOTS in fixed price 
projects was at 11%.

IP & Platforms

We  continue  to  invest  and  scale  intellectual  property  via 
platforms,  products,  frameworks  and  solutions,  enabled 
by  innovative  commercial  constructs  and  delivered  in  a ‘as 
a-service’ model, thus truly making their costs variable in a 
risk  reward  model  (e.g.  transaction  based,  outcome-based 
pricing).  The  number  of  patents  we  held  (and  applied  for) 
crossed 2,200, we now have 558 patents granted within our 
portfolio and we continue to maintain our innovation focus 
towards new age technologies like Data Analytics, Artificial 
Intelligence, Wireless technologies, etc.

As  I  mentioned  earlier  since  the  core  of  all  products  and 
services  is  now  technology,  the  responsibility  to  innovate 
is with us. We have therefore a very robust open innovation 
ecosystem  framework  which  comprises  of  M&A,  Ventures, 
Partner  Ecosystem,  Horizon  program,  Topcoder,  Expert 
Networks  &  Academia.  This  year,  we  invested  in  Syfte,  an 
Australian  design  agency  which  uses  human-centered 
design  thinking  to  solve  compelling  client  challenges  and 
further  strengthens  Wipro’s  design  capabilities.  Through 
Topcoder,  our  customers  are  accessing  and  executing 
with  incredible  digital  talent  faster,  including  specialized 
talent  driving  projects  utilizing  AI,  Blockchain,  Computer 
Vision,  Machine  Learning,  Precision  Medicine,  and  even 
Quantum Computing. This equates to more and faster digital 
experimentation  for  our  customers,  which  helps  them  win 
through better innovation.

I  am  encouraged  by  the  recognition  that  we  have  gained 
with Industry analysts as a ‘Leader’ across various industry 
segments  and  domains  like  Cloud,  Digital,  IoT,  Blockchain 
Automation  ,  AI,  &  Analytics  etc.  We  are  now  positioned  as 
“Leader” in 65% of the ~322 such active reports, which gives 
us the ability to differentiate ourselves.

Talent & Localization

We are investing in re-skilling of our employees into pi and 
X  shaped  talent  and  taking  affirmative  actions  to  create  a 
global, diverse, local and distributed talent. Our endeavour to 
localize has been successful in all our major markets, in US, 
we have reached new high of 64%+ up from 55% in FY 2018. 
Campus hiring from the universities is playing a crucial role 
across  the  markets  along  with  training  programs  specially 
designed to get the University graduates move successfully 
into customer projects. As of March 31, 2019, we have trained 
over 133,000 professionals in digital technologies. 

Through the last year, we remained steadfast in our efforts 
to  execute  on  our  strategy  and  made  good  progress.  This 
was  possible  because  of  the  passion  and  commitment  of 
Wiproites  across  the  world,  who  are  the  Spirit  of  Wipro!  I 
would also like to express my deep gratitude and appreciation 
to  our  customers  who  have  provided  us  an  opportunity  to 
partner  with  them,  our  partners  and  our  shareholders  for 
their unwavering support. 

Very Sincerely,

Abidali Z Neemuchwala

industry in India. Technologies such as industrial automation, 
robotics, cloud, Internet of things (“IoT”), augmented reality 
(“AR”)/virtual reality (“VR”) and blockchain continue to fuel 
growth.  In  2018,  there  was  a  45%  increase  in  as-a-service 
deals,  according  to  the  NASSCOM  Report.  Cloud  platforms 
are driving growth in managed services for security and data 
platforms.  Digital  and  automation  has  moved  from  point 
deployments to enterprise-wide adoption.

Large multinational enterprises are thus reimagining multiple 
aspects of their business leveraging digital technologies and 
are  engaging  global  IT  services  companies  who  can  deliver 
high  quality  service  on  a  global  scale  and  at  competitive 
price points. The market is shifting from traditional services 
to  digital  technologies,  DevOps  and  as-a-service  models. 
We  believe  that  the  IT  Services  industry  has  significant 
growth potential and the next wave of growth will come from 
digital technologies. According to the Strategic Review 2019

Annual Report 2018-19Business Overview

Our Business Strategy

We  are  a  global  technology  services  firm,  with  employees 
across 50 countries and serving enterprise clients across 27 
industry  verticals.  We  provide  our  clients  with  competitive 
advantages by applying various emerging technologies and 
ensuring  cyber  resilience  and  cyber  assurance.  We  work 
with  our  clients  not  only  to  enable  their  digital  future,  but 
also  to  drive  hyper  efficiencies  across  their  technology 
infrastructure,  applications  and  core  operations,  enabling 
them to achieve cost leadership in their businesses.

We  are  recognized  by  our  clients  for  our  ability  to  bring  in 
“an integrated perspective”, i.e., our ability to bring together 
broad and deep technology and domain expertise, our ability 
to  draw  learnings  and  apply  insights  from  one  company  or 
sector  to  another  and  our  ability  to  provide  end-to-end 
services.  Our  clients  value  our  consistent  excellence  in 
execution and our ability to proactively incorporate relevant 
innovation.

Going  forward,  digital  enterprises  will  increasingly  require 
partners,  such  as  Wipro,  who  are  able  to  bring  capabilities 
that span across consultancy, design, engineering, systems 
integration and operations to enable them to achieve digital 
transformation. This transformation can only be effective if 
delivered in the context of the relevant industry or domain, 
hence  it  is  critical  to  us  that  we  provide  strong  domain 
expertise along with “Digital.” We have invested significantly 
in  building  domain  expertise  and  we  will  continue  to 
strengthen our domain capabilities.

The vision for our business is “to earn our clients’ trust and 
maximize value of their businesses by helping them in their 
journey  to  ‘re-invent’  their  business  and  operating  models 
with our ‘Digital’ first approach and best in class execution.”

Our IT Services business provides a range of IT and IT-enabled 
services  which  include  digital  strategy  advisory,  customer- 
centric design, technology consulting, IT consulting, custom 
re-engineering  and 
application  design,  development, 
maintenance, systems integration, package implementation, 
cloud  infrastructure  services,  analytics  services,  business 
process  services,  research  and  development  and  hardware 
and software design to leading enterprises worldwide.

Our  IT Products segment  provides  a  range  of  third-party  IT 
products, which allows us to offer comprehensive IT system 
integration  services.  These  products  include  computing, 
platforms  and  storage,  networking  solutions,  enterprise 
information  security  and  software  products, 
including 
databases  and  operating  systems.  We  continue  to  focus 
on being a system integrator of choice where we provide IT 
products as a complement to our IT services offerings rather 
than sell standalone IT products.

Our  India  SRE  segment  consists  of  IT  Services  offerings  to 
organizations  owned  or  controlled  by  Government  of  India 
and/or any Indian State Governments.

Our strategy is about driving a “Digital first” approach through 
i.e.  Business  Transformation, 
four  foundational  pillars 
Modernization,  Connected 
Intelligence  and  Trust.  As 
part  of  these,  we  are  prioritizing  and  disproportionately 
investing  to  drive  growth  in  key  strategic  fields  such  as 
digital,  cloud,  cybersecurity  and  industrial  and  engineering 
services  through  our  “Big  Bet”  program.  For  example,  our 
“Big  Bet”  in  each  of  Digital  and  Cloud  are  at  the  heart  of 
our  Business  Transformation  and  Modernization  pillars, 
while  our  “Big  Bet”  in  Industrial  and  Engineering  services 
is  central  to  our  Connected  Intelligence  pillar  and  our “Big 
Bet” in cybersecurity is central to our Trust pillar. Talent, IPs/ 
Platforms & Open Innovation are underlying strategies that 
support the four pillars.

Business Transformation

Business Transformation is about transforming the customer 
experience  at  scale  and  generating  new  revenue  models 
through a consulting-led approach combining deep domain 
and technology expertise and strategic design capabilities, 
which  we  have  scaled  through  our  acquisitions,  such  as  of 
Designit, Cooper and Syfte.

Our  acquisition  of  Syfte,  an  Australian  design  agency 
leverages  human-centered  design 
to  solve 
compelling  client  challenges  &  strengthens  Wipro’s  design 
and innovation capabilities. Syfte, which is a part of Digital, 
expands our reach in Australia and contributes to significant 
synergy across our integrated digital and design capabilities.

Modernization

Modernization  is  about  taking  an  integrated  “Cloud  first” 
approach  across  applications,  infrastructure  and  data  to 
modernize  the  IT  landscape,  while  leveraging  HOLMESTM, 
new  ways  of  working,  Application  Programming  Interface 
(“API”) and Microservices.

We  are  investing  in  Cloud  Studios  across  geographies, 
which  provides  services  such  as  cloud  assessment,  cloud 
migration  (Lift  and  Shift),  cloud  native,  Agile  and  DevOps, 
among others.

Wipro  HOLMESTM  helps  enterprises  hyper-automate 
processes  and  offload  specific  cognitive  tasks  to  the 
artificial intelligence (“AI”) platform to gain cost efficiencies, 
agility and enhanced user experience. Wipro HOLMESTM helps 
businesses  adopt  a  hybrid  mode  of  operation  (i.e.,  pairing 
automation and human effort), which is achieved through a 
combination of virtual agents, predictive systems, cognitive 
process  automation,  visual  computing  applications, 
knowledge virtualization and AI reasoning.

We also offer automation advisory services to help clients in 
their journey of AI/automation through designing automation

Wipro Limitedroadmaps  and  setting  up  Digital  Centers  of  Excellence  for 
automation  initiatives.  In  addition  to  the  Wipro  HOLMESTM 
platform,  we  are  building  a  collaboration  ecosystem  for 
automation, working with partners such as Robotics Process 
Automation providers (e.g. UiPath ), start-ups (e.g., Avaamo, 
Inc.,  Arago  and  GmbH)  and  established  partners  (e.g.,  IBM, 
Amazon.com,  Inc.,  Google  LLC,  Microsoft  Corporation,  SAP 
SE, Oracle Corporation and ServiceNow, Inc.).

For our API and microservices, we have significantly scaled 
our consulting talent pool and solutions, which includes our 
Digital Modernization platform.

Connected Intelligence

Connected  Intelligence  is  about  driving  outcomes  through 
HOLMESTM, our Data Discovery Platform and use-case based 
AI  solutions  and  building  strong  industrial  &  engineering 
service capabilities and assets in areas such as Autonomous 
systems, IoT,5G, etc. We have adopted an “AI First” strategy, 
which  entails  acquiring  and  assimilating  data,  driving 
accurate  decisions  and  delivering  measurable  business 
outcomes., e.g. Faster Time-to-Market.

We  continue  to  invest  in  scaling  end-to-end  capabilities 
across sensors, gateways, connectivity, platforms, analytics, 
machine 
intelligence  to  drive 
transformation  in  a hyper-connected  world. We  are scaling 
assets  and  capabilities  in  emerging  areas  such  as  IoT,  5G, 
and autonomous systems.

learning  and  artificial 

Trust

Trust  is  about  addressing  a  changing  security,  privacy  & 
landscape  driven  by  ubiquitous  technology 
regulatory 
through a consulting led approach to Cyber-security.

We  have  adopted  a  consulting-led  approach  in  areas  such 
as  enterprise  risk  management,  data  privacy  and  control 
assurance  and  we  have  leveraged  cognitive  automation, 
e.g.,  automated  incident  detection  and  response,  to  drive 
security.

We are scaling assets such as our cyber defense assurance 
platform  (“CDAP”)  and  working  with  security  ecosystem 
partners  and  governing  bodies,  such  as  Cloud  Security 
Alliance and Wipro Ventures Portfolio (IntSights, CyCognito, 
Vectra).

Underlying Strategies that Support the 
Four Pillars

Talent

Talent strategy is about building a robust ‘re-skill & recruit’ 
engine  and  scaling  a  global,  diverse,  local  and  distributed 
talent  pool.  We  are  scaling  π-shaped  talent  (i.e.,  people 
with  “double-stemmed”  skill  sets),  product  managers, 
scrum  masters  and  full  stack  engineers.  We  are  driving 
re-skill  programs  for  our  employees,  such  as  our  Digital 
Academy. We are hiring and training new employees locally 
through  Wipro’s  Ascent  program  and  driving  scale  in  our 
various  geographic  segments  through  employee  trainings 
in areas such as Digital, Analytics, Engineering Services and 
Cybersecurity.

As of March 31, 2019, we trained over 133,000 professionals 
in digital technologies. We are expanding our innovation labs, 
or digital pods, to offer enhanced transformation services to 
global customers.

IPs & Platforms

IPs  and  Platforms  is  about  driving  differentiation  and  non- 
linear revenues. We are scaling IPs, platforms and solutions 
to drive differentiation in our as-a-service offerings. We are 
integrating IPs to drive greater impact across domains and 
technology.  Examples  of  our  domain  and  industry  IPs  are 
Netoxygen in our Banking, Financial Services and Insurance 
business  unit  and  Medicare  Advantage  in  our  Health 
Business  Unit,  and  examples  of  our  technology-based  IP 
include Cyber Defense Platform and Virtuadesk.

Open Innovation

Open Innovation is about tapping the innovation ecosystem 
to bring the best solutions to our customers through vehicles 
such  as  Wipro  Ventures,  through  which  we  invest  in  start- 
ups  relevant  to  enterprises,  Partner  ecosystem,  Academia 
partnerships  ,  our  Horizon  Program,  which  is  our  organic 
intrapreneurship 
initiative,  our  Crowdsourcing  Model 
(Topcoder), Expert Networks and M&A.

Partner  Ecosystem:  We  have  a  dedicated  unit  to  drive 
and  deepen  our  partner  ecosystem  to  drive  creation 
of  new  markets  and  solutions,  expand  in  key  verticals 
and  geographies,  drive  innovation  in  our  offerings  and 
drive  go-to-market  outcomes.  We  have  subdivided  the 
partner ecosystem into the following categories:
 »

Strategic  Partners:  A  strategic  partnership  has 
multiple  technologies  and 
industry  use  cases 
aligned  to  Wipro’s  business  covering  multiple 
Wipro  service  lines.  These  partnerships  are  global 
in  nature,  with  higher  business  volume  and  larger 
business  potential  with  a  medium  to  long  term 
joint  business  roadmap.  Wipro  and  the  strategic 
partner co-develop focused industry solutions and 
co-invest in joint go to market initiatives. Strategic 
partnerships usually have strong solutions portfolio 
which either complete a value chain by themselves 
or play a prime technology position in a value chain. 
Growth  Partners:  These  are  partnerships  have 
focused  alignment  on  a  core  technology  practice 
and provide extended solutions based on a common 
technology  baseline.  These  partnerships  help 
Wipro  to  strengthen  industry  positioning,  usually 
helping  Wipro  to  achieve  leadership  position  in 
that  technology.  Growth  partners  have  higher 
potential  for  multi  practice  engagements  through 
either branching to other services lines of Wipro or 
leveraging an ecosystem of partnerships. 
Niche  Partners:  Niche  partners  are  highly  focused 
relationship on addressing a specific business need 
through  a  unique  positioning.  Niche  partnerships 
help Wipro to differentiate ourselves in the market 
through  one  or  more  of  multiple  advantages  like 
cost, unique technology positioning, future proofing 
and addressing new growth areas.

products, platforms, solutions and capabilities. In order 
to achieve this objective, we are investing in key areas 
such  as  AI,  AR/VR,  IoT,  cloud  computing,  software- 
defined  everything,  autonomous  vehicle,  cybersecurity, 
digital experience, digital marketing and commerce and 
Industry 4.0. During the year ended March 31, 2019 we

the percentage of work delivered through crowdsourcing.

•  M&A:  Acquisitions  are  key  enablers  for  us  and  drive 
our  capability  to  build  industry  domain,  focus  on  key 
strategic  areas,  strengthen  our  presence  in  emerging 
technology areas, including Digital, and increase market 
footprint  in  newer  markets.  We  focus  on  opportunities 
where  we  can  further  develop  our  domain  expertise, 
specific  skill  sets  and  our  global  delivery  model  to 
maximize  service  and  product  enhancements  and 
create higher margins. We also evaluate business units 
to determine if divestures would maximize our focus on 
key priorities.

Operating Segment Overview

Our business comprises of the IT Services, IT Products and 
ISRE  segments.  The  ISRE  segment  consists  of  IT  services 
offerings  to  ISRE  Customers.  Effective  October  1,  2018, 
we carved out ISRE as a separate segment from our global 
IT  Services  business.  We  made  this  decision  because 
we  changed  our  strategy  for  providing  services  to  ISRE 
Customers. Historically, projects in our ISRE business have 
been  primarily  SI  projects  that  have  complex  deliverables 
and,  compared  to  our  IT  Services  segment,  longer  working 
capital  cycles  and  different  downstream  processes, 
including  billing  and  collections.  Most  ISRE  deals  come  in 
the  form  of  a  tender  process,  with  little  room  to  negotiate 
the terms and conditions. We have pivoted our ISRE strategy 
to  focus  more  on  consulting  and  digital  engagements  and 
to  be  selective  in  bidding  for  SI  projects  with  long  working 
capital cycle.

Additionally,  we  provide  our  IT  Services  segment  revenue 
and  results  by  industry  verticals.  Our  industry  verticals 
are subject to change and may vary depending on industry 
trends.

providers operating in specific geographies like India. One of 
the major challenges we encounter is margin pressure due to 
competitive pricing. Achieving mindshare and market share 
in a crowded market place requires differentiated strategies 
on  pricing,  branding,  delivery  and  products  design.  In  the 
system  integration  market,  we  believe  we  are  favorably 
positioned based on our brand, quality leadership, expertise 
in target markets and our ability to create customer loyalty 
by  delivering  value  to  our  customers. The  following  factors 
differentiate us from our competition:

1.  Our decades of experience in serving in the IT business, 
proven track record of delivery excellence and satisfied 
customers  who  recommend  our  services  to  other 
corporations.

2.  Our deep understanding of the market especially in the 

India 

3.  Our  trusted  ability  to  provide  impartial  advice  on 

selection of products.

4.  The Wipro brand that is recognized for serving the Indian 

market of over seventy years.

5.  Our commitment to environmental sustainability as well 

as deep engagement with communities.

Wipro LimitedIndia State Run Enterprise (ISRE)

The  ISRE  segment  consists  of  IT  Services  offerings  to 
Departments  or  Ministries  of  the  GoI  or  the  Indian  State 
Governments,  as  well  as  to  corporate  entities  where 
more  than  51%  of  the  paid-up  capital  is  held  by  the  GoI 
or  any  Indian  State  Government,  either  individually  or 
jointly  (i.e.,  a  Public  Sector  Undertaking).  In  certain  cases, 
corporate  entities  which  are  held  by  the  Central  /  State 
Government  (more  than  51%),  in  turn  hold  more  than  51% 
stake of paid-up capital in other entities (i.e., a controlling 
stake),  such  other  entities  are  also  classified  as  an  ISRE.  

We  will  be  using  our  strong  domain  practice  in  areas 
like  taxation  and  e-governance,  oil  and  gas  and  utilities, 
along  with  our  strong  partner  system  to  work  with  large 
companies in the government sector. In the BFSI sector, we 
aim to replicate our successes in areas such as core banking 
transformation, and consulting.

ISRE Customers 

We have customers across the GoI, Indian State Governments 
and in industry segments such as BFSI and ENU in the form 
of  corporate  entities  where  more  than  51%  of  the  paid-up 
capital is held by the government.

ISRE Competition

In  the  ISRE  sector,  our  competition  comes  from  both  local 
and  global  IT  services  companies,  including  large  global 
consulting  firms.  For  the  GoI  segment,  several  small 
companies  have  entered  the  market  as  disruptors,  with 
most  of  these  small  companies  focused  on  penetration 
strategy.

 The following factors differentiate us from our competition:

The  risk  landscape  in  the  current  business  environment  is  changing  dynamically  with  the  dimensions  of  Cyber  security, 
Information Security and Business Continuity, Data Privacy and Large Deal Execution figuring prominently in the risk charts 
of most  organizations. To effectively mitigate these risks,  we have employed a risk management framework, which helps 
proactively identify, prioritize and mitigate risks. The framework is based on principles laid out in the four globally recognized

assess solution fitness, credit risks, financial risks, technology risks among 
other  risk  factors.  Additionally  contract  compliance  programs  are  in  place 
with regular reviews, early warning systems as well as customer satisfaction 
surveys to assess the effectiveness of the service delivery and early detection 
of any risks arising from the service delivery.

Strong Control measures have been put in place to ensure employee health 
and safety. Awareness is created about various issues and are communicated 
on regular basis to employees. Wipro maintains Zero Tolerance for violators 
of code of business conduct. Also employees are provided with an online web 
portal to log in concerns relating to various subjects including environment 
and safety in the work place.

Effective  implementation  of  Business  Continuity  Management  System 
(BCMS)  and  framework  aligned  to  ISO  22301  across  global  locations, 
accounts  and  service  functions.  The  framework  will  ensure  a  robust  BCM 
planning  to  manage  any  crisis  which  could  disrupt  People  and  process, 
Technology and Facility level disruption effectively and efficiently.

An assessment of doing business in a new country is done in order to analyze 
the feasibility of doing business based on the country’s economic stability, 
corruption  index,  investment  opportunities,  ease  of  doing  business  and 
physical safety.

Appropriate measures are being taken to provide uninterrupted high quality 
services to the clients at all geographies. Additionally, localization efforts are 
being prioritized. More than 64% of USA workforce are local. In Latin America 
almost all our employees are local.

Wipro  is  committed  to  the  highest  standards  of  openness, 
probity  and  accountability.  Having  a  robust  whistle-blower 
policy  that  allows  employees  and  other  stakeholder  to 
raise  concern  in  confidence  is  an  essential  condition 
for  a  transparent  and  ethical  company.  This  ensures  a 
robust  mechanism  is  in  place,  which  allows  employees, 
non-  employees,  partners,  customers,  suppliers  and  other 
members  of  public  to  voice  concern  in  a  responsible  and 
effective manner.

Under  Ombuds  Policy  adopted  by  each  of  our  businesses, 
all  complaints  are  addressed  to  Ombuds  and  investigative 
findings are reviewed and approved by Chief Ombudsperson 
who  reports  into  the  Compliance  Committee.  Dedicated 
email  address 
(ombuds.person@wipro.com)  has  been 
created  to  facilitate  receipt  of  complaints  and  for  ease  of 
reporting.  The  company  has  a  24x7  muntilingual  hotline 
where  concerns  can  be  communicated  through  telephone 
call. All employees and stakeholders can also register their 
concerns  through  web-based  portal  at  www.wiproombuds.
com.  The  toll-free  numbers  provides  global  languages 
options.  Following  an  investigation,  a  decision  is  made  by 

the appropriate authority on the action to be taken basis the 
findings of the investigation. In case the complainant is non-
responsive for more than 15 days, the concern may be closed 
without further action.

1,460  complaints  were  received  via  the  Ombuds  process 
and  1,414  complaints  were  closed  in  FY  2019.  All  cases 
were investigated and actions taken as deemed appropriate. 
Based on self- disclosure data, 23.5% of these were reported 
anonymously. The top categories of complaints were people 
processes at 38% and workplace concerns and harassment 
at 22%. The majority of cases (73%) were resolved through 
engagement  of  human  resources  or  mediation,  or  closed 
since they were unsubstantiated.

Wipro  has  a  policy  and  framework  for  employees  to 
report  sexual  harassment  cases  at  workplace  and  our 
process  ensures  complete  anonymity  and  confidentiality 
of

Capitals and Value Creation

In this section we cover Wipro’s approach to value creation 
across 
the  five  capitals  namely  Financial,  Human, 
Intellectual, Social & Relationship and Natural.

a.  Financial  Capital  is  broadly  understood  as  the  pool  of 
funds available to an organization. Financial capital also 
serves as a medium of exchange that can obtain value 
through conversion into other forms of capital. 

b.  Human  Capital 

is  broadly  people’s  competencies, 
capabilities  and  experience,  being  continuously 
innovative  and  contribute  to  the  organizations  shared 
goals and values.
organizational, 
Intellectual  Capital 
knowledge-based 
intellectual 
property,  such  as  patents,  copyrights,  software,  rights 
and  licences  and  ‘organizational  capital’  such  as  tacit 
knowledge, systems, procedures and protocols.

is 
intangibles, 

including 

broadly 

c. 

d.  Social & Relationship Capital is broadly the institutions 
and the relationships within and between communities, 
groups  of  stakeholders  and  other  networks,  and  the 
ability  to  share  information  to  enhance  individual  and 
collective well-being such as customers, investors and 
suppliers.

e.  Natural  Capital  is  broadly  all  renewable  and  non-
renewable environmental resources and processes that 
provide goods or services that support the past, current 
or  future  prosperity  of  an  organization.  It  includes  air, 
water,  land,  minerals,  forests,  biodiversity  and  eco-
system health.

Manufactured  Capital  is  broadly  seen  as  human-created, 

production-oriented equipment and tools. For the IT services 
business, these are the fixed assets like buildings, IT hardware 
and  telecommunication  equipment. The  deployment  of  the 
capital  is  adequately  represented  in  financial  capital  and 
through  impacts  to  natural  capital.  Hence  this  report  does 
not cover manufactured capital separately.

Scope of reporting

Natural Capital

India:  58  locations  (includes  3  data  centers)  representing 
77%  of  our  workforce.  34  of  these  locations  are  owned 
(includes 3 data centers) and the balance 20 are leased. 
Overseas:  202  office  locations.  Most  locations  are  leased 
and used as marketing/liaison offices.

For segment reporting, we have included the impact of exchange rate fluctuations in revenue. Excluding the impact of exchange rate fluctuations, revenue, 
as reported in our statements of income, is ` 544,871 million and ` 585,845 million for the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2019 respectively. Further, 
finance income on deferred consideration earned under multi-year payment terms in certain total outsourcing contracts is included in the revenue of the 
respective segment and is eliminated under reconciling items. 
Gross margin and operating margin as a percentage of revenue for year ended March 31, 2019 have been calculated by including Other Operating Income 
with Revenue. 
Earnings per share for the year ended March 31, 2018, has been proportionately adjusted for the bonus issue in the ratio of 1:3 as approved by the 
shareholders on February 22, 2019.

Revenues: Our revenue increased by 7.8%. 
The  IT  Services  segment  revenue  increased  by  9.8%.  This 
growth was led by two of our largest industry verticals, BFSI, 
CBU and was also a result of depreciation of the Indian Rupee 
against  foreign  currencies,  including  the  U.S.  Dollar,  Euro, 
United  Kingdom  Sterling  Pound  and  Canadian  Dollar.  The 
growth in the BFSI and CBU industry verticals was a result of 
increasing our differentiated offerings across our geographic 
and  digital  capabilities.  Growth  was  partially  offset  by  a 
decline in revenues from the Health BU, due to uncertainties 
around  regulatory  changes  relating  to  the  Affordable  Care 
Act. Revenue of IT products segment declined by 31.6%. The 
decrease in IT Products segment revenue was primarily due 
to  our  focus  on  being  a  system  integrator  of  choice  where 
we  provide  IT  products  as  a  complement  to  our  IT  services 
offerings  rather  than  sell  standalone  IT  products.  Revenue 
of the ISRE segment declined by 20.1%, which was primarily 
due to completion of large engagements and cost overruns 
in existing engagements.

increase 

Profitability: In absolute terms, cost of revenues increased 
in  employee 
by  7.1%  primarily  because  of 
compensation due to the impact of salary increases, increase 
in  headcount  during  the  year,  increase  in  subcontracting/
technical fees and depreciation of the Indian Rupee against 
foreign  currencies,  including  the  U.S.  Dollar,  Euro,  United 
Kingdom  Sterling  Pound  and  Canadian  Dollar.  This  was 
partially  offset  by  a  reduction  in  the  cost  of  hardware  and 
software  and  increases  in  depreciation,  amortization  and 
impairment charges, primarily as a result of the sale of our 
datacenter business, during the fiscal year ended March 31, 
2019. As a result of the foregoing factors, our gross profit as 
a percentage of our total revenue increased by 0.2%.

Selling and Marketing expenses: Our selling and marketing 
expenses as a percentage of total revenue decreased from 
7.8%  for  the  year  ended  March  31,  2018  to  7.6%  for  the 
year  ended  March  31,  2019.  In  absolute  terms,  selling  and 
marketing  expenses  increased  by  5.1%  primarily  because

Annual Report 2018-19of  salary  increases  and  depreciation  of  the  Indian  Rupee 
including  U.S.  Dollar,  Euro, 
against  foreign  currencies 
United Kingdom Sterling Pound and Canadian Dollar. These 
increases  have  been  offset  by  the  decrease  in  travel  and 
marketing  and  brand  building  charges  in  the  year  ended 
March  31,  2019  as  compared  to  the  year  ended  March  31, 
2018.

Finance expenses: Our finance expenses increased from 
` 5,830 million for the year ended March 31, 2018 to ` 7,375 
million for the year ended March 31, 2019. This increase is 
primarily  due  to  an  increase  of  `  2,165  million  in  interest 
expense, which was partially offset by a decrease of `  620 
million in exchange loss on foreign currency borrowings and 
related derivative instruments.

General  and  Administrative  expenses:  Our  general  and 
administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased 
from  6.2%  for  the  year  ended  March  31,  2018  to  6.1%  for  the 
year  ended  March  31,  2019.  In  absolute  terms,  general  and 
administrative  expenses  increased  by  5.3%,  primarily  due  to 
charges  paid  against  a  one-time  settlement  of  a  legal  claim 
against the company included under “Others.” This was offset by 
a decrease in the lifetime expected credit loss, deferred contract 
cost and travel. 

Other  Operating  income:  During  the  year  ended  March  31, 
2019, we concluded the sale of our hosted datacenter services 
business,  Workday  and  Cornerstone  OnDemand,  and  reduced 
our holding in WAISL (formerly known as Wipro Airport IT Services 
Limited). Net gain from the sale of our hosted datacenter services 
business, Workday and Cornerstone OnDemand, and reduction 
in  our  holdings  in  WAISL  (formerly  known  as  Wipro  Airport  IT 
Services Limited), in the total amount of ` 4,344 million, has been 
recorded as “Other operating income.”

As  a  result  of  the  foregoing  factors,  our  operating  income 
increased  by  18.5%,  from  `  84,294  million  for  the  year  ended 
March 31, 2018 to ` 99,910 million for the year ended March 31, 
2019. As a result of the above, our results from operating activities 
as a percentage of revenue (operating margin) increased by 1.4% 
from 15.4% to 16.8%.

Performance Highlights – IT Services

Finance  and  Other  income:  Our  finance  and  other  income 
decreased  from  `  23,999  million  for  the  year  ended  March 
31,  2018  to  `  22,923  million  for  the  year  ended  March  31, 
2019. The  decrease  is  due  to  a  reduction  in  net  gains  from 
investments by ` 3,283 million during the year ended March 
31,  2019  as  compared  to  the  year  ended  March  31,  2018, 
resulting  from  a  decrease  in  the  average  investments  held 
during the year.

Income Taxes: Our income taxes increased by ` 2,852 million 
from ` 22,390 million for the year ended March 31, 2018 to 
`  25,242 million for the year ended March 31, 2019. Please 
refer  to  Note  16  of  the  Notes  to  Consolidated  Financial 
Statements  for  further  information.  Our  effective  tax  rate 
has narrowly increased from 21.8% for the year ended March 
31, 2018 to 21.9% for the year ended March 31, 2019.

Profit:  Profit  attributable  to  non-controlling  interest  has 
increased from ` 3 million for the year ended March 31, 2018 
to ` 142 million for the year ended March 31, 2019.

As a result of the foregoing factors, our profit attributable to 
equity holders increased by ` 9,950 million or 12.4%, from ` 
80,081 million for the year ended March 31, 2018 to ` 90,031 
million for the year ended March 31, 2019.

Revenues:  The  IT  Services  segment  revenue  increased  by 
9.8%.  This  growth  was  led  by  two  of  our  largest  industry 
verticals,  BFSI,  CBU,  and  was  also  a  result  of  depreciation 
of  the  Indian  Rupee  against  foreign  currencies,  including 
the  U.S.  Dollar,  Euro,  United  Kingdom  Sterling  Pound  and 
Canadian  Dollar.  The  growth  in  the  BFSI  and  CBU  industry 
verticals  was  a  result  of  increasing  our  differentiated 
offerings  across  our  geographic  and  digital  capabilities. 
Growth was partially offset by a decline in revenues from the 
Health BU, due to uncertainties around regulatory changes 
relating to the Affordable Care Act. 

Profitability: Our gross profit as a percentage of our revenue 
from  our  IT  Services  segment  increased  by  0.6%,  primarily 
because  of  increase  in  employee  compensation  due  to  the 
impact  of  salary  increases,  increase  in  headcount  during 
the  year,  increase  in  subcontracting/technical  fees  and 
depreciation of the Indian Rupee against foreign currencies 
including  U.S.  Dollar,  Euro,  United  Kingdom  Sterling  Pound 
and Canadian Dollar. This was partially offset by a reduction 
in  the  depreciation,  amortization  and  impairment  charges 
primarily as a result of the sale of our datacenter business 
during the year ended March 31, 2019. 

Selling  and  Marketing  expenses:  Selling  and  marketing 
expenses  as  a  percentage  of  revenue  from  our  IT  Services 
segment  decreased  from  8.1%  for  the  year  ended  March 
31,  2018  to  7.8%  for  the  year  ended  March  31,  2019.  In 
absolute  terms,  selling  and  marketing  expenses  increased 
by `  2,333 million primarily on account of salary increases 
and  depreciation  of  the  Indian  Rupee  against  foreign 
currencies,  including  the  U.S.  Dollar,  Euro,  United  Kingdom 
Sterling  Pound  and  Canadian  Dollar.  These  increases  have 
been  offset  by  the  decrease  in  travel  and  marketing  and 
brand building charges in the year ended March 31, 2019 as 
compared to the year ended March 31, 2018.

General  and  Administrative  expenses:  General  and 
administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue from our 
IT Services segment decreased from 6.4% for the year ended 

32

March 31, 2018 to 6.3% for the year ended March 31, 2019. 
In  absolute  terms,  general  and  administrative  expenses 
increased by `  2,724 million, primarily due to charges paid 
against  a  one-time  settlement  of  a  legal  claim  against 
the  company. This  was  offset  by  a  decrease  in  the  lifetime 
expected credit loss, deferred contract cost and travel.

Other  Operating  Income:  During  the  year  ended  March 
31,  2019,  we  concluded  the  sale  of  our  hosted  datacenter 
services  business,  Workday  and  Cornerstone  OnDemand, 
and  reduced  our  holding  in  WAISL  (formerly  known  as 
Wipro  Airport  IT  Services  Limited).  Net  gain  from  the  sale 
of  our  hosted  datacenter  services  business,  Workday  and 
Cornerstone  OnDemand,  and  reduction  in  our  holdings  in 
WAISL (formerly known as Wipro Airport IT Services Limited), 
in the total amount of ` 4,344 million, has been recorded as 
“other operating income.”

Segment Results: As a result of the above, segment results 
as a percentage of our revenue from our IT Services segment 
increased by 1.8%, from 16.1% to 17.9%. In absolute terms, 
the segment results of our IT Services segment increased by 
23.3%. 

Performance  against  guidance:  Historically,  we  have 
followed a practice of providing constant currency revenue 
guidance  for  our  largest  business  segment,  namely,  IT 
Services  in  dollar  terms.  The  guidance  is  provided  at  the 
release  of  every  quarterly  earnings  when  revenue  outlook 
for  the  succeeding  quarter  is  shared.  The  following  table 
presents  the  performance  of  IT  Services  Revenue  against 
outlook  previously  communicated  for  the  eight  quarters 
of  FY  2019  and  FY  2018.  Our  revenue  performance  in  all 
the  quarters  of  FY  2018  and  FY  2019  has  been  within  the 
guidance range.

For  the  purpose  of  segment  reporting,  we  have  included  the  impact  of 
exchange rate fluctuations amounting to `  (12) million and `  (2) million 
for  the  years  ended  March  31,  2018  and  2019,  respectively  in  revenue. 
Further, finance income on deferred consideration earned under multi-
year payment terms in certain total outsourcing contracts is included in 
the revenue of the respective segment and is eliminated under reconcil-
ing items. 

Revenues:  Our  revenue  from  the  IT  Products  segment 
decreased  by  31.6%.  The  decline  was  primarily  due  to  our 
focus  on  being  a  system  integrator  of  choice  where  we 
provide  IT  products  as  a  complement  to  our  IT  services 
offerings rather than sell standalone IT products.

Profitability:  Our  gross  profit  as  a  percentage  of  our  IT 
Products  segment  revenue  decreased  by  10.3%,  primarily 
because  of  cost  escalation  relating  to  depreciation  of  the 
Indian  Rupee  against  the  U.S.  Dollar  and  increase  in  loss 
provisions in certain customer contracts.

Selling  and  Marketing  Expenses:  Selling  and  marketing 
expenses  as  a  percentage  of  revenue  from  our  IT  Products 
segment  has  remained  flat  at  1.4%.  In  absolute  terms, 
selling and marketing expenses decreased by ` 80 million, in 
line with reduction in revenues. 

General  and  Administrative  Expenses:  General  and 
administrative  expenses  as  a  percentage  of  revenue  from 
our  IT  Products  segment  increased  from  4.9%  for  the  year 
ended  March  31,  2018  to  5.1%  for  the  year  ended  March

Wipro Limiteddecreased by ` 573 million. This was primarily on account of 
reduction in lifetime expected credit loss.

Segment Results: As a result of the above, in absolute terms, 
segment  results  of  our  ISRE  segment  recorded  a  loss  of  ` 
1,829 million for the year ended March 31, 2019 as compared 
to a profit of ` 454 million for the year ended March 31, 2018.

Resource Allocation Strategy

Cash  generated  from  operations  is  our  primary  source  of 
liquidity. We believe that our cash and cash equivalents along 
with  cash  generated  from  operations  will  be  sufficient  to 
meet our working capital requirements as well as repayment 
obligations with respect to debt and borrowings. Our choices 
of  sources  of  funding  will  be  driven  with  the  objective  of 
maintaining an optimal capital structure. 

We maintain a debt/borrowing level that we have established 
through  consideration  of  a  number  of  factors  including 
cash  flow  expectations,  cash  required  for  operations  and 
investment  plans.  We  continually  monitor  our  funding 
requirements,  and  strategies  are  executed  to  maintain 
sufficient  flexibility  to  access  global  funding  sources, 
as  needed.  Please  refer  to  Note  11  of  our  Notes  to  the 
Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details on 
our borrowings. 

As of March 31, 2019, we had cash and cash equivalent and 
short-term investments of ` 379,245 million. Cash and cash 
equivalent and short-term investments, net of debt, was 
` 279,778 million.

In addition, we have unutilized credit lines of ` 41,955 million. 
To utilize these lines of credit, we require the consent of the 
lender and compliance with certain financial covenants. We 
have  historically  financed  our  working  capital  and  capital 
expenditures through our operating cash flows and through 
bank debt, as required.

Cash Generated from Operating Activities: 
Cash  generated  by  operating  activities  for  the  year  ended 
March  31,  2019  increased  by  `  32,083  million  while  profit 
for the year increased by `  10,089 million during the same 
period. The increase in cash generated by operating activities 
is primarily due to decreased working capital requirements.

Cash Generated from Investing Activities: 
Cash generated from investing activities for the year ended 
March  31,  2019  was  `  50,126  million.  We  had  a  net  cash 
inflow  of  `  26,103  million  from  sale  of  hosted  data  center 
business. The cash generated from sale of investments (net 
of purchases) amounted to `  24,340 million. We purchased 
property, plant and equipment amounting to ` 22,781 million 
which  was  primarily  driven  by  the  growth  strategy  of  the 
Company.

31,  2019.  In  absolute  terms,  general  and  administrative 
expenses decreased by ` 249 million primarily on account of 
decreases in employee compensation and lifetime expected 
credit loss in our India business.

Segment Results: As a result of the above, in absolute terms, 
segment  results  of  our  IT  Products  segment  recorded  a 
loss  of  `  1,047  million  for  the  year  ended  March  31,  2019 
as compared to a profit of `  362 million for the year ended 
March 31, 2018.

respectively,  0.5%  and  (1.8)%  of  our  operating  income

Revenues:  Our  revenue  from  the  ISRE  segment  decreased 
by  20.1%.  This  was  primarily  due  to  scaling  down  of  large 
engagements and delay in completion of projects.

Profitability:  Our  gross  profit  as  a  percentage  of  our  ISRE 
segment revenue decreased by 30.8%, primarily on account 
of cost overruns in existing engagements.

selling  and  marketing  expenses  decreased  by  `  85  million, 
which is in line with reduction in revenues.

Assessment of Key Risks

Cash  used  in  financing  activities  for  the  year  ended  March 
31, 2019 was ` 49,369 million as against ` 129,978 million for 
the year ended March 31, 2018. This is primarily on account of 
outflow for an equity share buyback amounting to ` 110,312 
million  in  the  year  ended  March,  31  2018  and  increased 
outflow  in  the  year  ended  March  31,  2019,  on  account  of 
partial repayment of loans taken for acquisitions. Payment 
towards the dividend, including dividend distribution tax for 
the year ended March 31, 2019, amounted to ` 5,434 million. 
Dividend  paid  in  the  year  ended  March  31,  2019  represent 
interim  (and  final)  dividend  declared  for  the  year  ended 
March 31, 2019 amounting to ` 1 per share.

Shareholder Returns

We have always strived to enhance shareholder value for our 
investors. The Company’s policy has been to provide regular, 
stable  and  consistent  distribution  of  return.  There  is  no 
change in our philosophy on shareholder return.

Dividend: The cash dividend paid per equity share during the 
year ended March 31, 2019 was interim dividend of ` 1. The 
Board recommended the adoption of the interim dividend of 
` 1 per equity share as the final dividend for the year ended 
March 31, 2019. 

Buyback: On April 16, 2019, our Board of Directors approved 
a proposal to buyback up to 323,076,923 equity shares of the 
Company for an aggregate amount not exceeding ` 105,000 
million, being 5.35% of total paid-up equity share capital as 
at March 31, 2019, at a price of ` 325/- (US$ 4.70) per equity 
share. Subsequently, vide resolution dated June 1, 2019, the 
shareholders approved the buyback of equity shares through 
postal ballot/e-voting.

Global  Economic  and  Geo  Political  Risks:  We  derive 
approximately  57%  of  our  IT  Services  revenue  from  the 
Americas  (including  the  United  States)  and  25%  of  our 
IT  Services  revenue  from  Europe.  If  the  economy  in  the 
Americas  or  Europe  continues  to  be  volatile  or  conditions 
in  the  global  financial  market  deteriorate,  pricing  for 
our  services  may  become  less  attractive  and  our  clients 
located in these geographies may reduce or postpone their 
technology  spending  significantly.  Reduction  in  spending 
on  IT  services  may  lower  the  demand  for  our  services  and 
negatively  affect  our  revenues  and  profitability.  Our  clients 
are  concentrated  in  certain  key  industries.  Any  significant 
decrease  in  the  growth  of  any  one  of  these  industries,  or 
widespread  changes  in  any  such  industry,  may  reduce  or 
alter  the  demand  for  our  services  and  adversely  affect  our 
revenue and profitability. 

Taxation  Risks:  Our  profits  for  the  period  earned  from 
providing  services  at  client  premises  outside  India  are 
subject  to  tax  in  the  country  where  we  perform  the  work. 
Most  of  our  taxes  paid  in  countries  other  than  India  can 
be applied as a credit against our Indian tax liability to the 
extent that the same income is subject to taxation in India. 
Currently,  we  benefit  from  certain  tax  incentives  under 
Indian  tax  laws.  These  tax  incentives  include  a  tax  holiday 
from  payment  of  Indian  corporate  income  taxes  for  our 
businesses  operating  from  specially  designated  Special 
Economic Zones (“SEZs”). Changes to these incentives and 
other exemptions we receive due to government policies can 
impact our financial performance.

Wage  Pressure:  Our  wage  costs  in  emerging  markets  have 
historically been significantly lower than wage costs in the 
developed markets for comparably skilled professionals, and 
this has been one of our competitive advantages. However, 
wage  increases  in  emerging  markets  may  prevent  us  from 
sustaining  this  competitive  advantage  and  may  negatively

Wipro Limited 
Interest  rate  risk:  Interest  rate  risk  primarily  arises  from 
floating  rate  borrowing,  including  various  revolving  and 
other lines of credit. Our investments are primarily in short-
term  investments,  which  do  not  expose  it  to  significant 
interest  rate  risk.  To  manage  our  net  exposure  to  interest 
rate  risk  relating  to  borrowings,  we  may  enter  into  interest 
rate swap agreements, which allows us to exchange periodic 
payments  based  on  a  notional  amount  and  agreed  upon 
fixed and floating interest rates. Certain borrowings are also 
transacted  at  fixed  interest  rates.  If  interest  rates  were  to 
increase  by  100  bps  from  March  31,  2019,  additional  net 
annual interest expense on our floating rate borrowing would 
amount to approximately ` 866 million.

Credit  Risk:  Credit  risk  arises  from  the  possibility  that 
customers  may  not  be  able  to  settle  their  obligations  as 
agreed. To manage this, we periodically assess the financial 
reliability of customers, considering the financial condition, 
current  economic  trends,  analysis  of  historical  bad  debts 
and ageing of accounts receivable. Individual risk limits are 
set accordingly. No single customer accounted for more than 
10%  of  the  accounts  receivable  as  of  March  31,  2018  and 
2019. There is no significant concentration of credit risk.

Counterparty  Risk:  Counterparty  risk  encompasses  issuer 
risk on marketable securities, settlement risk on derivative 
and  money  market  contracts  and  credit  risk  on  cash  and 
time  deposits.  Issuer  risk  is  minimized  by  only  buying 
securities  in  India  which  are  at  least  AA  rated  by  Indian 
rating agencies. Settlement and credit risk is reduced by the 
policy of entering into transactions with counterparties that 
are  usually  banks  or  financial  institutions  with  acceptable 
credit ratings. Exposure to these risks are closely monitored 
and  maintained  within  predetermined  parameters.  There 
are limits on credit exposure to any financial institution. The 
limits  are  regularly  assessed  and  determined  based  upon 
credit  analysis  including  financial  statements  and  capital 
adequacy ratio reviews.

Liquidity  Risk:  Liquidity  risk  is  defined  as  the  risk  that  we 
will not be able to settle or meet our obligations on time or 
at a reasonable price. Our corporate treasury department is 
responsible  for  liquidity  and  funding  as  well  as  settlement 
management. In addition, processes and policies related to 
such risks are overseen by senior management. Management 
monitors the Company’s net liquidity position through rolling 
forecasts on the basis of expected cash flows. As of March 
31, 2019, our cash and cash equivalents are held with major 
banks  and  financial  institutions.  Our  Gross  cash  and  cash 
equivalent and short-term investments of ` 379,245 million 
($  5.5  billion).  Cash  and  cash  equivalent  and  short-term 
investments, net of debt, was ` 279,778 million ($ 4.0 billion).

affect our profit margins. We may need to increase the levels 
of our employee compensation more rapidly than in the past 
to retain talent. Unless we are able to continue to increase 
the  efficiency  and  productivity  of  our  employees  over  the 
long  term,  wage  increases  may  reduce  our  profit  margins. 
Inability  to  provide  adequate  wage  increase  may  result  in 
attrition and impact competitiveness.

General Market Risk: Market risk is the risk of loss of future 
earnings,  to  fair  values  or  to  future  cash  flows  that  may 
result from a change in the price of a financial instrument. 
The value of a financial instrument may change as a result 
of changes in the interest rates, foreign currency exchange 
rates  and  other  market  changes  that  affect  market  risk 
sensitive  instruments.  Market  risk  is  attributable  to  all 
including 
market  risk  sensitive  financial 
investments,  foreign  currency  receivables,  payables  and 
loans and borrowings.

instruments 

Components of Market Risks

Foreign  Currency  Risk:  We  operate  internationally  and 
a  major  portion  of  our  business  is  transacted  in  several 
currencies.  Consequently,  the  Company  is  exposed  to 
foreign  exchange  risk  through  receiving  payment  for  sales 
and  services  in  the  United  States  and  elsewhere,  and 
making  purchases  from  overseas  suppliers  in  various 
foreign  currencies.  The  exchange  rate  risk  primarily  arises 
from foreign exchange revenue, receivables, cash balances, 
forecasted cash flows, payables and foreign currency loans 
and  borrowings.  A  significant  portion  of  our  revenue  is  in 
United  States.  Dollars,  United  Kingdom  Pound  Sterling, 
Euros, Australian Dollars and Canadian Dollars while a large 
portion of our costs are in Indian Rupees. The exchange rates 
between  the  rupee  and  these  currencies  have  fluctuated 
significantly  in  recent  years  and  may  continue  to  fluctuate 
in the future. Appreciation of the Indian Rupee against these 
currencies can adversely affect our results of operations.

We evaluate our exchange rate exposure arising from these 
transactions  and  enter  into  foreign  currency  derivative 
instruments to mitigate such exposure. We follow established 
risk  management  policies,  including  the  use  of  derivatives 
like  foreign  exchange  forward/option  contracts  to  hedge 
forecasted cash flows denominated in foreign currency.

We have designated certain derivative instruments as cash 
flow  hedges  to  mitigate  the  foreign  exchange  exposure 
of  forecasted  highly  probable  cash  flows.  We  have  also 
designated  foreign  currency  borrowings  as  hedges  against 
respective net investments in foreign operations.

As of March 31, 2019, a `1 (Rupees one) increase/decrease 
in  the  spot  exchange  rate  of  the  Indian  rupee  with  the 
U.S.  dollar  would  result  in  approximately  `  2,002  million 
decrease/increase in the fair value of foreign currency dollar 
denominated derivative instruments.

Annual Report 2018-19Risk Management Procedures

We  manage  market  risk  through  a  corporate  treasury 
department,  which  evaluates  and  exercises  independent 
control over the entire process of market risk management. 
Our  corporate  treasury  department  recommends  risk 
management objectives and policies, which are approved by 
senior management and the Audit Committee. The activities 
of this department include management of cash resources, 
implementing  hedging  strategies  for  foreign  currency 
exposures,  borrowing  strategies,  and  ensuring  compliance 
with market risk limits and policies.

Foreign Exchange Risk Management 
Policy and Results

We  evaluate  our  foreign  exchange  rate  exposure  arising 
from  operations  and  enter  into  foreign  currency  derivative 
instruments to mitigate such exposure. We have a consistent 
hedging policy, designed to minimize the impact of volatility 
in foreign exchange fluctuations on the earnings and assets 
& liabilities.

rate  exposure  arising 

from 
We  evaluate  exchange 
transactions  and  positions  and  enter  into  foreign  currency 
derivative instruments to mitigate such exposure. We follow 
established  risk  management  policies,  including  the  use 
of  derivatives  like  foreign  exchange  forward/option/future 
contracts  to  hedge  forecasted  cash  flows  denominated  in 
foreign currency. As per the policy, the total hedges shall be 
45% to 100% of the next four quarters of inflows in addition 
to select long term contracts which are beyond one year in 
tenor. 

We have designated certain derivative instruments as cash 
flow  hedges  to  mitigate  the  impact  of  foreign  exchange 
exposure on Profit and Loss account and forecasted highly 
probable  cash  flows.  We  have  also  designated  foreign 
currency  borrowings  as  hedges  against  respective  net 
investments in foreign operations.

Our Hedge Book as on March 31, 2019 stood at $ 2.6 billion 
dollars.

Internal Control Systems and their 
Adequacy

We  have  presence  across  multiple  countries,  and  a  large 
number  of  employees,  suppliers  and  other  partners 
collaborate  to  provide  solutions  to  our  customer  needs. 
Robust 
internal  controls  and  scalable  processes  are 
imperative to manage the global scale of operations.

The Management has laid down internal financial controls to 
be followed by the Company. We have adopted policies and 

procedures for ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of 
the business, including adherence to the Company’s policies, 
the safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection 
of frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the 
accounting  records,  and  the  timely  preparation  of  reliable 
financial disclosures.

Reasons for significant changes:

•  Our Free Cashflow is computed as operating cash flows 
less net capital expenditure in a given year. Our operating 
cashflows have improved on account of lower DSO. 

•  We realized ` 26,103 million from the sale of our hosted 
data center services. We have used part of the proceeds 
to  partially  repay  our  long  term  borrowings  in  some  of 
our acquisitions.

•  Our  interest  expense  has  increased  on  account  of 

increase in benchmark interest rates.

• 

Return  on  Networth  is  computed  as  Net  Profit  by 
average Networth. The increase in the Net income from 
` 80,081 million in FY 2018 to ` 90,031 million in FY 2019 
has resulted in improvement of Return on Networth.

Human  Capital  Value  Chain  –  Working 
Ethically and Upholding Human Rights 

Our human capital interventions are driven by the dynamic 
business  landscape  we  operate  in.  Today,  innovations 
like  artificial  intelligence,  automation  and  analytics  are 
disrupting  traditional  business  models,  and  opening  up 
newer  opportunities  and  revenue  streams.  Continuous 
learning is key to staying relevant in any industry and more 
so in the IT and ITeS sector. Organizations are moving away 
from being process-centric to becoming experience-centric 
in order to attract, nurture and retain the best global talent.
Our human capital value chain consists of people strategies 
which  are  based  on  the  current  and  future  business 
requirements.  Our  policies,  processes  and  systems  flow 
from  these  strategies  which  encompass  our  employee 
lifecycle.  The  outcomes  of  these  people  interventions  are 
reflected through our people result indicators, which directly 

or  indirectly  contribute  to  the  intellectual,  social,  natural 
and  financial  capital  of  Wipro.  As  part  of  our  governance 
process, the strategies, processes and results are reviewed 
periodically  by  the  leadership  and  course  corrections  are 
made  when  and  where  necessary.  Throughout  this  value 
chain,  our  strategies,  processes  and  policies  reflect  an 
unflinching commitment to the Spirit of Wipro values, as well 
as globally-recognized principles of business responsibility, 
human rights and corporate governance.

People Strategy

Our  people  strategies  are  geared  to  create 
learning 
opportunities, build careers, and foster an empowering and 
inclusive culture where our employees find meaning in what 
they do while they create value for Wipro.

People Processes: Key Highlights FY 2019

Hiring and Onboarding

including 

role-mapping  and 

Attracting and recruiting the best-in-class global talent, while 
ensuring  long  term  people  sustainability  is  a  key  business 
objective. We are an equal opportunity employer and focus 
on  meritocracy  at  all  stages  of  the  hiring  and  deployment 
process, 
remuneration. 
Localization continues to be a strategic focus for our talent 
agenda and we have made considerable progress in our key 
markets. We have a robust process to source and select the 
best talent, both for entry-level roles as well as lateral hires 
through  our  website,  channel  partners,  job  fairs,  campus 
placements,  and  internal  job  postings.  Our  comprehensive 
onboarding  program  aided  by  best-in-class  systems,  help 
assimilate new talent seamlessly within Wipro. The program 
includes  mandatory  sessions  on  the  Spirit  of  Wipro  and 
Prevention of Sexual Harassment at the workplace. 

In FY 2019, we moved towards digitalizing and exploring new 
channels  for  our  campus  hiring  process.  For  the  first  time, 
we  conducted  a  National  Level Talent  Hunt  for  engineering 
graduates in India with over 95,800 applicants. 

Our  recruitment  process  has  become  more 
inclusive 
with  diversity-focused  sourcing.  As  an  equal  opportunity 
employer,  we  do  not  discriminate  on  the  basis  of  race, 
colour, religion, sex, national origin, gender identity, gender 
expression,  sexual  orientation,  disability  status.  Our  G100 
program  has  successfully  brought  in  diverse  talent  across 
the  globe  who  are  engaged  in  impactful  work  and  are 
groomed for leadership roles of the future. 

Performance and Talent Management

2016, continues to be a strong platform to encourage candid, 
constructive  and  meaningful  feedforward  discussions 
between  employees  and  managers.  Our  performance 
management  system  leverages  Artificial  Intelligence  to  aid 
employees  and  managers  in  writing  effective  reviews.  For 
employees working on Agile methodology in certain projects, 
we have an Agile Performance Management process which 
incorporates  metrics-driven  evaluation  and  feedback  on 
competencies from self, peers and managers in addition to 
the quarterly feedforward discussions. 

We  have  an  annual  360-degree  feedback  survey  where 
employees in middle and senior level roles receive feedback 
on 
identified  competencies  from  their  teams,  peers, 
internal  customers,  managers,  external  customers,  among 
others.  The  feedback  report  is  app-based  and  interactive, 
enabling  the  creation  of  appropriate  action  plans  for  self-
development. 

At Wipro, succession planning is an annual exercise. Talent is 
classified in terms of performance and potential, successors 
are identified for critical roles and development actions are 
framed. Executive coaching is provided to senior leadership 
to facilitate their all-round development. 

Learning and Development

We continue to make significant investments in learning and 
development  in  line  with  our  business  imperatives  as  well 
as  the  evolving  expectations  of  our  employees.  We  have  a 
comprehensive  Learning  and  Development  program  which 
caters to the behavioural, technical and leadership needs of 
our employees. Our curriculum includes classroom courses, 
on-the-job-training,  blended 
learning, 
mentoring  and  gamified  modules  to  suit  the  diverse  needs 
of the participants.

have also enabled learning through social learning platforms 
like  MS  Teams  and  Yammer,  and  revamped  our  Learning 
Management  System,  focusing  on  hands-on  training  and 
assessments. 

Digital Upskilling: We have enabled over 133,000 employees 
in foundational, intermediate and advanced digital skills as 
of FY 2019. We are enabling the delivery leadership through 
a  program  called  ADAPT,  where  our  Delivery  Managers 
and  Delivery  Heads  are  covered  to  understand  nuances  of 
managing digital projects.

Building Capability: We have engaged more than 7,600 senior 
and  middle  level  managers  effectively  in  workshops  such 
as  Global  Executive  Leadership  Program,  Global  Business

and  Leading  Global Teams  to  manage  key  aspects  such  as 
customer  focus,  leadership  development,  diversity  and 
inclusion.  Over  50,000  employees  across  various  levels 
were trained in behavioural skills including communication, 
customer service, and more to ensure faster assimilation in 
the organization.

Employee Well-being

Our  employee  wellness  programs  encompass  the  three 
areas  of  employee  well-being,  namely  physical,  emotional 
and financial well-being.

Physical Well-being

Risk  Assessment:  Wipro  has  established,  implemented 
and  maintained  a  Risk  Assessment  procedure  for  ongoing 
hazard identification, risk assessment and determination of 
necessary controls, considering all the requirements of the 
OHSAS  18001:2007  Standard.  We  conduct  periodic  as  well 
as annual assessments of our campuses/offices, employees, 
stakeholders and service providers as a part of this process. 
Environment,  Occupational  Health  &  Safety  management 
systems in our campuses conform to international standards 
such as   14001/OHSAS 18001 and are certified by accredited 
third party agencies. Besides internal and other third-party 
audits,  EHS  experts  assess  every  unit  at  periodic  intervals 

not exceeding six months, to ensure compliance to statutory 
norms and EHS requirements.

Safety  and  security:  Wipro  has  voluntarily  committed  to 
providing  best-in-class ‘duty  of  care’  support  to  our  global 
and  diverse  workforce  of  over  170,000  employees  and 
100,000 unique business travellers spanning over 230 cities 
worldwide. Wipro has a dedicated Global Security Command 
Centre, run by the Global Security Group, to mitigate risks and 
ensure safety for a globally mobile workforce. The Foresight 
&  Analysis  (F&A)  Division  proactively  and  continually 
assesses  global  developments  to  provide  business  with 
various  risk  briefs  and  forecasts,  and  carries  out  country 
risk  assessments  to  provide  insight  to  business  teams  on 
the operating environment, before they even enter a market. 
We  have  well-defined  policies  and  standard  operating 
procedures to ensure the safety of women employees inside 
and  outside  the  campus.  These  include  Safety  Awareness 
Programs, Global 24x7 Security Command Centre, cab pick-
up/  drop  facility  with  escort,  mobile  apps  to  confirm “Safe 
Reach”, among others.

raise  awareness, 

Sensitization:  We  have  institutionalized  various  channels 
that 
foster  dialogue  and  provide 
opportunities  for  employees  to  give  feedback.  Over  the 
years, our engagement programs have evolved to cater to our 
diverse workforce.

Participation  in  committees:  All  our  facilities  have  safety 
committees  which  meet  quarterly  and  participate  in  risk 
assessments, safety inspections, incident investigations and 
hygiene  audits.  3500+  permanent  and  contract  employees 
participated  in  committees  on  safety,  food,  transport,  etc. 
across India, to represent the interests of the workforce.

Coverage  of  Training:  All  employees  and  contractors 
working  for  Wipro  undergo  the  necessary  Health,  Safety  & 
Environment  (HSE)  training  to  ensure  they  meet  with  the 
standard of competence required by law in performing their 
duties.

Health:  All  our  campuses  meet 
Indian/International 
standards  on  hygiene,  lighting,  ventilation  and  effective 
controls  on  noise  and  dust.  Wipro  has  24  Occupational 
Health  Centers  with  adequate  medical  staff  to  monitor 
occupational  health  and  provide  immediate  relief,  when 
required. Wellness events are conducted to raise awareness 
on fitness and health among our workforce.

Cafeteria: A Food Safety Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) 
license  is  mandatory  for  vendors  operating  within  Wipro-
owned  locations  in  India.  Regular  inspections  and  audits 
are  conducted  by  internal  and  external  teams  to  ensure 
compliance. 

FitforLife: Our physical wellbeing program that encourages 
employees to remain fit and lead a healthy lifestyle. We have 
a special Wellness Corner mobile app and a web portal that 

40

Annual Report 2018-19provides employees access to health trackers and a host of 
other online services to enhance their physical wellbeing.

Emotional Wellbeing

Given  our  hectic  lifestyles,  employees  sometimes  need 
additional help and guidance for their emotional wellbeing. 
Mitr  is  our  employee  counselling  and  support  forum  in 
India. It enables employees to reach out to counsellors 24x7 
in-person  and/or  on  phone  to  seek  assistance  for  issues 
pertaining  to  personal  or  professional  life.  In  geographies 
outside  India,  we  have  employee  counselling  services 
provided as a part of Employee Assistance Programs. 

Financial Wellbeing

We continually strive to provide our full-time and part-time 
employees  with  compensation  packages  commensurate 
with  their  skills  and  experience  and  in  accordance  with 
laws of the land. Our benefits program follows an integrated 
approach and provides a range of options for better financial 
and  social  security,  including  efficient  tax-management 
options, life and accident insurance, medical packages and 
assistance  in  managing  financial  issues.  For  employees  in 
India,  we  have  MoneyWise,  a  financial  wellbeing  program 
which  helps  them  in  better  financial  planning,  tax  savings 
as  well  as  contingency  planning.  We  started  providing 
long-term  incentives  by  granting  restricted  stock  units 
(RSUs)  in  2004  towards  long-term  retention  of  key  talent. 
We  continue  to  drive  a  high-performance  culture  through 
our variable pay programs. Our management compensation 
is  now  more  closely  aligned  with  organizational  objectives 
and  commitments,  and  rewards  higher  performance, 
significantly. 

Employee Engagement and Communication

To facilitate open channels of feedback and communication 
within  the  organization,  we  have  instituted  town  halls, 
Yammer  blogs  and  employee  connect  sessions  with  senior 
leadership as well as the human resources teams.

Wipro  OnAir  –  Our  global  podcast  series  is  the  exclusive 
window into Wipro’s culture and people. Since its launch in 
2017, it has received over 600,000 hits over 50 podcasts. The 
Wipro  OnAir  group  on  Yammer  is  one  of  the  most  engaged 
groups with over 21,000 members.

Yammer – Our enterprise social platform launched in 2014 
has  over  106000  users  who  have  shared  over  2.3  million 
messages and formed over 11,000 groups. It is currently the 
largest social engagement tool at Wipro.

Microsoft  Teams  –  MS  Teams  is  used  widely  to  set  up 
meetings,  chats,  share  data  and  collaborate  across 
geographies  and  time  zones. The  platform  has  over  47,000 
monthly  active  users  with  over  3  million  conversations  per 
month. 

Employee Perception Survey and Employee Insights – EPS 
is  the  formal  mechanism  to  capture  employee  feedback, 
annually.  EPS  Pulse  2018-19  results  have  already  been 
analysed  and  action  areas  based  on  employee  feedback 
are being finalized for the coming year. Based on feedback, 
we  have  simplified  several  of  our  systems  and  processes 
including  revamping  our  Employee  Helpdesk,  introduced 
policies that allow greater flexibility at work (the Work from 
Home policy was introduced in FY 2019), and made trainings 
and  job  rotations  more  flexible.  Supplementing  the  annual 
EPS, we have also introduced Employee Insights, a platform 
to  seek  real-time,  continuous  and  targeted  feedback  from 
employees,  besides  communicating  actions  taken  on 
feedback. This  is  done  through  a  combination  of  pop-polls 
and enterprise level surveys with built-in analytics.

Inclusion and Diversity (I&D) – Today, the scope of our I&D 
charter  encompasses  gender,  persons  with  disabilities, 
nationalities,  underprivileged  communities,  suppliers,  and 
more recently, LGBT groups. We encourage plurality of ideas 
and  focus  on  elimination  of  unconscious  bias  to  foster  an 
inclusive workplace. Our CEO is the Executive Sponsor of our 
I&D Council. Further, I&D is a key agenda item for our Board 
reviews. Some of Wipro’s key diversity initiatives include:

• 

Focus on returning mothers: We have in-house Day Care 
Centers in eight locations and 11 tie-ups covering 98% 
of  our  India  employee  population.  In-house  day  care 
centres enrol children from 6 months to 6 years. The food 
prepared in the centres is in line with recommendations 
from  nutritionists.  A  basic  study  curriculum  is  a  part 
of  the  package.  Parent  Teacher  Meetings  (PTMs)  are 
conducted  on  a  monthly  basis  and  milestones  of  kids 
shared  with  every  parent.  Core  Committees  have  been 
formed  across  locations  which  include  members  from 
facilities,  security,  HR  teams  and  parents  to  conduct 
internal audits, complementing external ones.

Day care center

Wipro LimitedWe have created a WoW (Women of Wipro) Mom program 
which  aims  to  support  employees  returning  from 
maternity  break  as  they  transition  back  to  work.  HR 
representatives connect with the employees to provide 
them  with  any  support  or  information  that  they  might 
need.  Further,  we  have  curated  a  WoW  Mom  handbook 
for employees in India that gives an overview of relevant 
policies and processes which (to-be) mothers at Wipro 
usually look for.

• 

Inclusivity  trainings:  We  continue  to  nurture  a  more 
inclusive work environment by conducting sensitization 
programs  on  breaking  unconscious  bias,  working  with 
a  culturally  diverse  workforce  and  creating  focused 
development  programs  for  women  employees.  Over 
7,000 employees have been covered through the cross-
cultural  sensitization  and  women’s  training  programs. 
Over 9000 employees have undertaken the Unconscious 
Bias  module  since  its  launch  in  Q3’FY19.  Over  625 
Wiproites  have  been  sensitized  on  disability.  1,600+ 
Wiproites  across  the  globe  pledged  their  support  for

Contract  Employee  Engagement:  We  engage 
contract  employees  for  infrastructure  support  at 
our  offices  in  India.  The  duration  of  engagement 
varies depending upon the project and role. We have 
created eLearning modules on COBC, Prevention of 
Sexual  Harassment  (POSH)  and  data  privacy  for 
them. Chatbots have been introduced to clarify any 
doubts  that  employees  may  have  on  policies  and 
guidelines. We also proactively conduct open houses 
for  our  contract  employees  across  India  where  we 
address their concerns /queries, take feedback and 
provide them career guidance. Specific concerns on 
delayed  claims,  role  change  and  location  change, 
among others are actively addressed.
Sensitization  on  Unconscious  Bias:  As  mentioned 
above,  under  the  umbrella  of  our  #BreaktheBias 
campaign,  we  have  monthly  leadership  blogs, 
mailers and a mandatory e-learning module which 
raise  awareness  among  employees  on  how  they 
can  eliminate  biases  at  the  workplace.  Around 
9000 employees have been trained till date on the 
e-module  since  Q3  FY  2019.  The  campaign  also

Annual Report 2018-19Intellectual Capital 

Intellectual  Capital  is  core  to  Wipro’s  Strategy  for  creating 
value  for  the  customers  and  for  driving  sustained  growth, 
differentiation,  non-linearity  and  profitability  for  Wipro  - 
by  building  scalable  domain  and  technology  IPs  for  high 
opportunity  areas  leveraging  partners,  Academia  and  the 
start-ups ecosystem and delivered in aaS construct.

Wipro  has  launched  an  idea  hunting  program  called  “The 
Great  Blue  Heron”  (The  bird  –  Great  Blue  Heron  is  a  great 
fisher  and  fishing  is  used  as  a  metaphor  for  idea  hunting) 
for  capturing  High  potential  Opportunities  and  problem 
patterns across Customers, Domains and Technologies. This 
program  has  been  supplying  a  validated  pipe  of  potential 
ideas for developing commercially viable IPs.

The  commercially  viable  and  market  validated  ideas  are 
funded through the Horizon program (popularly called H2H3). 
This  platform  is  designed  to  identify  &  incubate  disruptive 
ideas,  helping  drive  significant  growth  &  differentiation  for 
Wipro from a 2-3 year horizon standpoint. During FY 2019 we 
incubated 16 themes (7 newly approved) around Autonomous 
vehicle, Digital Twins, Digital, Open Banking, Analytics, Cloud 
security, Additive manufacturing, SDx, industry solutions for 
Insurance & Banking. 

We are also focused on continued investments for enhancing 
some of our existing and proven products and platforms like 
Promax, Netoxygen, Medicare, HOLMESTM, Topcoder, Base))), 
Virtuadesk etc.

IP  Assets:  Wipro  has  a  rich  portfolio  of  60+  commercial-
grade  licensable  Products,  Platforms  and  Frameworks  and 
have  been  actively  investing  in  strengthening,  enhancing 
and refreshing the portfolio. Here are some examples:

Wipro  IMAGINE  has  near-human  ability  of  having  intuitive 
multi-modal  interactions,  thereby  providing  personalized 
experiences  accurately  and  efficiently  across  different 
senses:  voice,  vision,  haptics,  smell  and  taste.  It  has  the 
potential to transform customer experience through nascent 
channels  of  interaction  such  as  augmented  reality,  virtual 
reality  and  mixed  reality  experiences  provided  on  head-

offer a wide range of benefits to car owners, OEMs, insurers 
and the ecosystem players. The transformational usecases 
are  Loss  Prevention,  Safety  &  Wellbeing,  Incentives  and 
offers, Ecosystem Value. 

Wipro  has  also  been  investing  in  building  IP  capabilities  is 
towards  Autonomous  Vehicle  with  intent  to  position  Wipro 
as  a  Software  defined  System  Integrator  for  implementing 
various levels of autonomy in autonomous vehicle and a niche 
provider of best in class IP that solves unique challenges for 
autonomous driving. 

Cargo Digital Transformation is another example of Domain 
specific area of investment for Wipro with focused IP around 
Cargo Reservation Operations Accounting and Management 
Information System (CROAMIS). 

Wipro  has  been  investing  in  building  IP  capabilities  across 
the entire spectrum of AI and Automation spanning, RPA to 
Cognitive and Deep Learning. Wipro drives a persona-first AI 
approach  through  Wipro  HOLMESTM  wherein  each  persona 
(COO,  CFO,  CPO  etc.)  has  a  wide  portfolio  of  Automation/AI  
use cases.

Co-Innovation  and  Open  Innovation:  We  actively  co-
innovate with alliances and customers on emerging themes, 
enabling  new  customer  experiences.  Our  Open  Innovation 
programs  leverage  the  innovation  ecosystem  by  working 
closely with our partner/startups ecosystem, academia and 
expert networks to jointly provide latest innovations to our 
customers.  In  FY  2019  we  have  identified  key  innovative 
startups  that  usefully  differentiate  our  solutions  and  have 
been successful in building traction for joint engagements. 
We  continue  to  be  part  of  various  industry  and  startup 
forums  including  the  NASSCOM  Industry  Partner  Program, 
which  connect  promising  startups  with  us.  We  also  work 
with  and  maintain  our  relationships  with  accelerators  and 
other  investors  and  influencers  in  the  startup  ecosystem. 
We  continue  to  work  with  a  variety  of  open  innovation 
intermediaries  to  leverage  expert  networks  across  the 
world to complement our specialists on niche projects such 
as  rapid  development  of  mobile  applications,  AR  based 
immersive  experience  on  applications,  revolutionizing 
employee  based  retention  through  Intelligent  chatbot, 
streamline  IT  operations  with  AI,  automating  drafting  and 
executing of  legal contracts and much more.

Innovation  Centres:  Our  innovation  incubation  centres, 
the Technovation Center at  Bengaluru and the Silicon Valley 
Innovation  Centre  in  Mountain  View  California,  continues 
to  drive  technology-led  innovation  to  visualize  the  “art 
of  the  possible”  in  emerging  business  environments  for 
our  customers  globally.  These  Centers  brings  together 
an  innovation  ecosystem,  a  set  of  best  practices,  IP  and 
research  and  development  resources  to  help  our  clients 
develop successful initiatives

Wipro  also  has  19  Digital  Pods  across  the  globe.  A  Digital 
is  a  workspace  to  foster  collaboration  within  a 
Pod 
multidisciplinary  agile  team.  Each  team  of  8-10  persons  is 
known as a “Digital Cell”. These cells work with the necessary 
autonomy to facilitate speed, continually validating progress 
with  user  research  and  technical  performance  data.  The

Wipro LimitedOur  joint  research  collaboration  with  Tel  Aviv  University 
where  Wipro  and  TAU  are  working  on  core  and  applied 
research  in  image  and  text  analytics  using  deep  learning 
and sparse representation models and techniques, transfer 
domain  and  incremental  learning  problems  has  resulted  in 
some key advances, and our research collaborations with the 
Indian Institute of Science on technologies for autonomous 
vehicles is also on track.

In  addition,  we  have  entered  into  research  collaborations 
with IISc on technologies for autonomous vehicles. Further 
we  continue  to  actively  scout  for  academia  research 
programs from institutions across the world, where we can 
establish mutually beneficial research collaborations.
Wipro  has  also  worked  with  IIT  Kharagpur  to  discover  an 
alternate way to secure the IoT devices which is lightweight 
and  doesn’t  require  computational  &  battery  power.  This 
is  achieved  by  building  Physically  Unclonable  Function 
(PUF)  based  authentication  and  key  exchange  protocol  for 
IoT  devices. The  drawbacks  associated  with  the  traditional 
authentication  protocols  for  IoT  devices  is  minimized  by 
eliminating  password  dependency  and  binding  access 
requests to originating device. 

Crowdsourcing:  We  have  continued  our  investments  in 
TopGear,  the  social  learning  and  crowdsourcing  platform 
focusing  on  workforce  transformation  in  ‘Digital’  and  “in-
demand” skills. 

Patent  Filings:  Our  R&D  work  has  contributed  to  some 
in  key 
significant  patent  applications  during  the  FY 
technology  domains.  As  has  been  reported  earlier  we  have 
been  investing  in  building  a  focused  patent  portfolio  that 
protects  critical  Wipro  IP.  As  of  FY  2019,  we  have  a  total  of 
2,236 patents filed in various Patent Jurisdictions across the 
world,  of  which  558  have  been  granted.  Recognition  of  our 
work in IP creation has come in the form of the prestigious 
Enterprise Trophy presented to us by the World Intellectual 
Property Organization, as well as the National IP Award from 
the Government of India.

cells also follow Wipro’s No-Shore ways when working with 
similar  cells  distributed  across  the  globe.  Leveraging  the 
best  in  class  processes,  teaming  norms  and  technology 
enablers  like  the  Digital  Rig  etc,  the  cells  work  as  a  single 
networked  entity  delivering  business  value  faster  to  the 
consumers. 

Research  Areas  and  Solutions  in  Advanced  Tech. 
Areas:  Wipro’s  Research  and  Development 
initiatives 
continue  to  focus  on  strengthening  and  extending  our 
capabilities  across  multiple  new  and  emerging  technology 
areas,  intersection  of  these  technologies  and  potential 
business  use  cases  applying  these  technologies.  We  are 
investing extensively in developing solutions and services in 
a host of advanced technology areas (e.g. ADAS/autonomous 
vehicles,  commercial  wearables,  machine  vision,  human 
machine  interfaces,  smart  assistants,  natural  language 
processing  and  understanding,  Blockchain  tech,  quantum 
computing, smart machines, among others). We continue to 
invest in working on new ways of software development and 
deployment for edge-based IoT and always-on architectures. 

We are actively building solutions in collaborative robotics, 
drones  for  industrial  and  warehouse  applications.  Our 
objective  is  to  build  AI  based  software  platforms  that 
consists of cognition and decision systems so that we could 
deploy  the  solutions  at  scale  with  the  customers.  We  are 
currently  building  software  platforms  for  automations  of 
machine tending, intelligent material handling & transport. 
This uses the Computer Vision Platform that which provides 
actionable  insights  to  improve  compliance,  quality  and 
productivity using image and video analytics. We have built 
partnerships  with  Robot  &  accessory  vendors  to  become 
single point solution provider for our customers. Some of the 
use cases we have built that are showcased in our innovation 
centres are shopper robot, vision assisted machine tending 
operation, inventory & inspection, segregation of hazardous 
materials, game playing robot. 

We  are  building  a  solution  for  warehouse  inspection  using 
drones.  Drones  fly  periodically  and  help  in  the  accurate 
identification of materials across the warehouse at any point 
in time.

We are also collaborating with agricultural university, start-
ups and research institutions to develop early detection of 
pest infestation in crops with the use of these APIs. We have 
reached a reasonable accuracy in detection and are working 
with one of the processing industries to deploy the same. 

Academia:  This  year  we  signed  an  agreement  with 
Swinburne  University,  Melbourne,  Australia  to  create 
a  Wipro  Chair  in  the  University,  to  lead  critical  joint  AI 
technology  research.  We  continue  to  actively  scout  for 
academia  research  programs  from  institutions  across  the

Standard Board (SASB) standard for software and IT services 
also lists these as being material to the sector.

Organizations  earn  and  maintain  their  societal    license    to 
operate  by  adopting  a  boundary-less  perspective  and  co-
creates  social  value  through  positive  outcomes  along  with 
its  customers,  business  partners,  vendors,  employees, 
investors, communities and civil society. To this we also add 
another key stakeholder– future generations, helping bring 
a  perspective  from  the  unrepresented  future,  but  that  is 
core to creating a sustainable society. We talk about each of 
these stakeholders in brief below.

Customers

Wipro  believes  in  creating  value  for  the  customer  over  and 
above our contractual obligation. Our approach is  based  on 
our  vision  of  delivering  value  to  our  customer  businesses 
based  on  a  solid  relationship  of  trust,  collaboration  and 
competence.  We  ensure  this  by  providing  solutions  that 
integrate  deep  industry  insights,  leading  technologies  and 
best in class delivery processes.

Artificial  intelligence  is  emerging  as  a  defining  technology, 
empowering  organizations  to  make  rapid  and  informed 
its  promise, 
decisions.  However,  for  AI  to  deliver  on 
predictability,  transparency  and  trust  are  critical.  Our 
solution  capabilities  enable  responsible  AI  through  our 
platform  (Wipro  HOLMESTM)  and  the  ETHICA  (Explainability, 
Transparency, Human-first, Interpretability, Common sense, 
and Auditability) framework.

Engagement 
is  critical  to  meet  and  understand  the 
expectations  of  customers.  The  key  to  customer  retention 
is  building  deep  relationships.  IT  industry,  a  major    driver 
of  efficiency  and  productivity  improvements  for  most 
businesses,  is  undergoing  tremendous  change  in  the  face 
of  disruptive  technologies.  The  Business  Strategy  section 
outlines the drivers and how it informs our business model, 
offerings and customer engagement approach.

The  Voice  of  the  Customer  is  heard  at  various  levels  i.e., 
at  project  level,  program  level,  account  level  and  through 
direct  feedback,  informal  meetings,  governance  meetings 
and  senior  management  interaction  with  the  client.  The 
processes  include  Program  CSAT,  Quarterly  Pulse  Surveys 
and the Annual CSAT conducted through third party surveys. 
These are conducted formally and at appropriate intervals to 
capture  customer  feedback  on  Wipro.  During  the  reporting 
year, there has been a 511 basis point increase in customer 
Net Promoter Score from previous year. 

From a sustainability perspective, the most material issues 
for  our  customers  include  Data  privacy,  IT  Security  and 
compliance  on  sustainability  related  aspects.  The  World 
Economic Forum Global Risks Report 2019 lists large-scale 
IT security issues and data fraud/thefts among the top 10 in 
terms of likelihood and impact. The Sustainability Accounting 

IT  Security:  Wipro’s  IT  infrastructure    is    certified    under  
the  ISO  27001    standard    which    provides    assurance    in  
the  areas  of  information  security,  physical  security  and 
business  continuity.  We  benchmark  our  processes  to  meet 
the  EU’s  General  Data  Protection  Regulation  (GDPR)  and 
SOX  IT  compliance  requirements.  We  closely  monitor  IT 
infrastructure  availability 
incidents  based  on  severity, 
outage duration and users impacted. Most of the incidents 
are  related  to    telecommunications    and    network    links.  
We  have  maintained  SLA  with  vendors  on  IT  and  telecom 
infrastructure  availability  close  to  99.99%  in  the  reporting 
year.

Data Privacy: Being a B2B business, Wipro does not collect, 
store or monetize information pertaining to our customer’s 
attributes or actions, including but not limited to, records of 
communications, content of communications, demographic 
data, behavioral data, location data, or any other personally 
identifiable  information.  Therefore,  our  company  does  not 
receive requests for customer information from government 
or  law  enforcement  agencies.  Wipro  does  not  store  any 
customer  proprietary  data  in  its  systems  and  networks.  In 
rare  circumstances  where,  as  part  of  project  requirement, 
it is needed to view customer data, it is accessed  remotely  
with  the  data  being  stored  and  hosted  on  the  customer’s 
systems.  This  helps  in  meeting  data  privacy  compliance 
requirements from a contractual & operational perspective 
since it is Wipro’s customers that are in control of their own 
data,  even  while  outsourcing  project  work  to  Wipro.  Wipro 
signs  Master  Services  Agreements  with  its  customers  that 
have  clauses  covering  confidentiality  of  the  customer’s 
information.  Wherever  applicable,  Wipro  also  executes 
Business  Associate  Agreements  with  its  customers    who 
are governed by sectoral privacy regulations such as  HIPAA 
(Health  Insurance  Portability  and  Accountability    Act)  of 
1996. As a matter of due process, a customer is notified in 
the  event  of  any  breach  of  data  privacy  as  per  notification 
procedure agreed in the contract. 

We  have  a  Data  Protection  and  Privacy  policy  based  on 
globally  accepted  data  protection  principles  applicable  to 
the entire organization. The privacy policies and procedures 
are reviewed internally and audited on compliance. There is 
continuous monitoring of any privacy incident or deviations 
to  the  policy.  Appropriate  disciplinary  actions  are  taken  in 
the event of any breach.

In April 2019, we became aware that our system was subject 
to  a  cyber  attack  by  a  coordinated  and  advanced  phishing 
campaign,  which  was  reportedly  directed  against  several 
major  companies,  including  Wipro.  Upon  learning  of  this 
incident, we collaborated with forensic firms to investigate 
and have worked closely with our anti-virus provider and our 
information security team to counter the threat found in our 
system and implemented a series of additional precautionary 

47

Wipro Limitedand  containment  measures  across  our  systems.  Our 
investigation into this incident remains ongoing and will be 
concluded shortly.

Sustainability: Apart from technology driven value creation, 
our  global  customers  also  expect  transparency  and 
compliance  on  different  sustainability  aspects  within  our 
operations and in our extended value chain – Human Rights, 
Labour Practices and Diversity being key dimensions among 
them.  Many  customers  require  acceptance  and  alignment 
with their supplier code of conduct and/or global frameworks. 
We have +150 of our customers who are part of independent 
raters  like  Ecovadis,  Verego  and  industry  led  consortiums 
like the JAC (Joint Audit Consortium), Pharmaceutical Supply 
Chain Initiative (PSCI) and Quest Forum (Focusing on  Quality  
and  Sustainability  in  ICT  community).  We  also  respond  to 
CDP  supply  chain  with  information  on  our  GHG  emissions 
attributable  to  the  work  we  do  for  specific  customers  and 
as  a  corollary,  on  collaboration  opportunities  with  those 
customers on GHG mitigation.

sustainability  has 
increasingly  become  central.  Our 
engagement  approach  is  multi-pronged  with  the  focus  on 
improving  the  capabilities  of  suppliers  in  managing  their 
sustainability  performance.  Manpower  service    providers 
in  civil,  operations  and  support  services  is  a  category 
identified  as  being  significant  in  terms  of  social  impacts. 
Similarly, suppliers who provide utility products and services 
(electricity,  water,  waste  management)  and  ICT  equipment 
have  large  environmental  footprints  and  are  therefore 
material to our strategy to reduce our environmental impact.

A  significant  feature  of  our  engagement  is  how  we  align 
our  community  or  CSR  (Corporate  Social  Responsibility) 
programs with supplier engagement wherever it is possible. 
This can address some of the fundamental issues at hand– 
our  bridge  program  in  education  for  children  of  migrant 
laborers  for  our  new  infrastructure  projects,  urban  water 
programs  in  cities  where  we  operate  and  access  to  social 
benefits  for  city  municipal  solid  waste  workers  are  some 
examples.

Suppliers

Managing  and  mitigating  the  environmental  and  social 
impacts  of  one’s  supply  chain  are  interlinked  to  effective 
economic  outcomes  over  the  long  term  –  they  can  help 
businesses  avoid  disruptions,  meet  evolving  customer 
requirements,  foster  innovation  and  protect  the  company’s 
reputation  and  brand  value.  It  can  also  help  further  the 
business  imperatives  of  efficiency,  cost  effectiveness  and 
resilience  in  the  supply  chain.  The  supplier  ecosystem  of 
Wipro can be broadly categorized into two heads - contract 
employees  involved  in  core  delivery  of  IT  Services  and 
Solutions  (refer  the  Human  Capital  section);  and  ‘product 
or  services  supply  chain’  or ‘secondary  supply  chain’  which 
comprises  suppliers  who  provide  materials,  equipment 
and  end-products,  business  support  services  and  facility 
management services for our operations.

Our Code of Business Conduct (COBC) and the Spirit of Wipro 
values  provide  the  ethical  guidelines  and  expectations  for 
conducting  business  and  for  directing  Wipro’s  relationship 
with  its  suppliers.  The  code  is  applicable  to  all  suppliers, 
agents,  service  providers,  channel  partners,  dealers  and 
distributors.  In  addition  to  the  COBC,  the  Supplier  Code  of 
Conduct (SCOC) of Wipro further strengthens and augments 
the COBC with respect to environmental and social aspects 
(including  key  aspects  of  human  rights)    of    business  
practices  and  sets  clear  expectations    from    our    supply  
chain. All decisions related to  procurement  are  governed  
by  our  procurement  policy  which  addresses  social  and 
environmental  aspects  like  green  procurement,  supplier 
diversity, equal opportunity in sourcing and accessibility of 
goods and services for people with disabilities.

Supplier Diversity: Wipro is an Equal Opportunity employer 
and strongly advocates the same through its supply chain by 
encouraging supplier diversity. Qualified enterprises owned 
by  persons  with  disability,  women  or  member  of  minority 
communities  are  proactively  identified  and  engaged  with. 
We  are  restructuring  our  vendor  empanelment  process  to 
help strengthen our supplier diversity process.

Summary of supplier sustainability engagements:

a.  The  second  phase  of  Vendor  Compliance  Management 
Audit covering FY 2017 and FY 2018 concluded in June 
2018. Employee Benefits provided and Women’s Safety 
at workplace were identified as key issues for workers in 

Annual Report 2018-19supply chain. A total of 330 vendors were covered within 
its scope.

b.  Based  on  Trucost’s  natural  capital  valuation,  high 
carbon/water/waste footprint suppliers are identified in 
supply chain. 

c. 

Identifying High Risks Vendors: It is compulsory for all our 
vendors to submit a signed copy of Wipro Supplier Code 
of  Conduct  (SCOC).  High  Risk  Vendors  (HRV)  identified 
based on geography, nature of service and other criteria 
go  through  additional  checks  and  balances  during 
processing  for  key  words  like  government  payments, 
miscellaneous expenses, bribe, commission, facilitation 
fee,  gift,  reward,  out  of  pocket  expense,  etc.  All  HRV 
vendors  are  required  to  submit  an  anti-bribery  anti-
corruption questionnaire. We also have requirements of 
stricter  negotiating  threshold,  clear  break  up  of  costs 
and multiple quote regardless of the value.

d.  Supplier  Diversity  Program  for  facilities  management 
services at our campuses – A sensitization program was 
conducted and expectations have been conveyed formally 
through  our  contracting  process.  The  gender  diversity 
ratio for supplier staff deployed at our facilities is 25.6%. 

e.  Green initiatives in ICT Hardware:

from  Green  Electronic  Council 

Green  Procurement:  Wipro  adopted  the  EPEAT 
standard 
in 
2016  for  its  IT  hardware  procurement  –  across 
categories  such  as  laptops,  desktops,  printers, 
mobiles  and  servers.  In  2018,  we  purchased  more 
than  6,344  EPEAT  Gold  and  over  140  EPEAT  Silver 
and  Bronze  category  products  across  desktops, 
laptops, displays, imaging equipment and mobiles. 
In  tangible  terms,  our  procurement  of  EPEAT 
certified  hardware  translates  into  a  saving  of  2.6 
million  KwW  of  energy,  reduction  of  598  tons  eq. 

Enhancing  Virtualization  Platform:  Till  date 
we  have  migrated  6300  users  from  traditional 
physical  desktop  to  Virtual  Desktop  Infrastructure 
(VDI).  This  has 
in  energy 
consumption,  easier  operations  and  cost  saving. 

led  to  reduction 

Asset re-utilization: Through proactive maintenance 
and upgrades, we have been able to reutilize 16% of 
the assets post their scheduled end of life.

 » Managed  Print  Services:  This  outcome-based 
model,  where  Wipro’s  printing  services  are 
managed through an independent third party helps 
generate  higher  operational  efficiency  through 
better  controls  and  analytics  as  well  as  reduced 
resource  consumption  (paper,  toner)  and  planned 
asset refresh. Consumables and printer issues are 
tracked  remotely  and  managed  by  MPS  vendor. 

During  the  reporting  year,  we  optimized  MPS 
through asset reuse and printer removal, leading to 
cost saving of ` 1.1 million.  We have also reduced 
unwanted printouts by a provision to scan and send 
documents  to  respective  user  mailboxes  and  are 
currently  planning  to  implement  ‘authentication 
service’-access  before  print  to  further  bring  down 
print and paper volumes. 

Investors

Our endeavor is to, not merely, report true and fair financial 
results  in  a  timely  manner  but  also  communicate  the 
business  outlook,  risks  and  opportunities  transparently  to 
the  investor  community.  Increasingly,  discerning  investors 
are interested in the longer term strategy of the organization 
and  issues  which  are  material  to  the  industry.  We  deploy 
multiple  channels  of  communications  to  keep  investors 
informed about various development and events.

Wipro’s  senior  leaders  along  with  our  dedicated  Investor 
Relations  team  participate  in  various  forums  like  investor 
conferences  and  investor  road    shows,    in    addition  to 
hosting investors and equity analysts who visit our campus. 
Our  quarterly  results,  regulatory  filings,  transcripts    of  our 
earnings call, media presentations and schedule of investor

Communities and Civil Society

At Wipro, we think it is critical for business to engage with 
the social and ecological challenges that face humanity in a 
deep  and  meaningful  manner  with  long-term  commitment; 
for  that  is  the  only  way  by  which  real  change  can  happen 
on the ground. We engage with communities on issues that 
matter to them most. Wipro’s social initiatives center on the 
following dimensions. The programs on ecology are covered 
in the ‘Natural Capital’ section.

reform  in  school  education  in  India,  through  the  Wipro 
Applying Thought in Schools (WATIS) program. The strategy 
has  two  key  elements;  (i)  to  support  the  development  and 
strengthening of good organizations working in this space. 
Till date, we have partnered with 116 organizations working 
in  different  areas  of  systemic  reform.  The  impact  of  this 
wide  network  of  education  organizations  has  been  in  the 
areas of curriculum, text books, teacher capacity, and school 
leadership.  Since  inception,  our  work  has  spanned  181 
projects  with  a  collective  reach  of  close  to  20,000  schools 
across  29  states.  During  FY  2019,  we  continued  to  build 
momentum  of  identifying  and  supporting  new  and  young 
start-ups in school education through a structured program 
of  seeding  fellowships.  25  Fellows  from  14  organizations 
were  added  during  the  year  taking  the  total  number  of 
‘Fellows’  to  more  than  85.  (ii)  The  second  element  of  our 
strategy  is  to  support  organizations  working  in  other 
developmental  areas  like  livelihoods  or  healthcare  and 
encourage them to expand their work to school education. 
In  addition,  we  continue  to  identify  and  partner  with  good 
early to mid-stage organizations who are already working in 
education. Two such organizations were supported through 
the grants program during the reporting period. 

In combination, we hope this strategy will eventually help to 
build  a  bulwark  of  strong  organizations  across  the  country 
which are deeply committed to change in school education. 

As part of network building and advocacy of such issues, our 
18th  annual  forum  was  organized  –  a  unique  platform  that 
brings together the best minds in education in the country to 
deliberate and exchange thoughts and ideas on some of the 
most important issues in education.

USA and initiated a new program in UK as well. The common 
vision that ties this together is our belief that good education 
is a the primary enabler of change towards a better society.

Wipro Science Education Fellowship Program 
in USA

The Wipro Science Education Fellowship (SEF) is a significant 
initiative we started in USA in 2013 with a focus on improving 
STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) learning 
in  schools  that  serves  disadvantaged  communities.  Our 
work centers around helping teachers become better STEM 
educators  and  change  leaders  for  STEM  in  their  school 
districts. Anchored by the University of Massachusetts, the 
program has been widely accepted in USA as an important 
initiative in this space. In last 18 months, we expanded our 
presence  significantly,  adding  three  new  sites  at  Tampa, 
Florida,  Jefferson  City,  Missouri  and  Mountain  View,  Santa 
Clara.  We  established  three  new  partnerships  for  these 
sites  with  the  University  of  Southern  California,  University 
of  Missouri  and  Stanford  University  respectively.  With  this, 
the Wipro-SEF program is active in 35 school districts across 
seven  locations  in  the  U.S,  including  the  existing  sites  at 
Boston, New York, New Jersey and Dallas.  Cumulatively, we 
have worked with 500 teachers till date.

Wipro Science Education Fellowship Program 
in UK

We  launched  the  Wipro  Science  Education  Fellowship 
program  in  the  UK  in  FY  2019  in  partnership  with  Kings 
College,  London  and  Sheffield  Hallam  University.  A  three-
year  agreement  was  finalized  with  King’s  College  London, 
to  develop  and  offer  UK’s  first  Master’s  program  in  STEM 
education,  targeted  at  in-service  teachers  from  ‘social-
mobility cold-spots’. The program was launched successfully 
in February 2019 and will admit its first cohort in the coming 
academic  year.  Sheffield  Hallam  University  initiated  the 
‘Wipro  Teacher  Fellowship’  and  ‘Wipro  Teacher  Mentor’ 
programs  to  provide  rigorous  continuous  professional 
development  to  STEM  teachers  working  in  government 
designated  ‘opportunity  areas’,  which  by  definition  have 

a  high  proportion  of  failing-schools.  About  25  teachers 
representing 20 schools in/around Sheffield have joined the 
first cohort in January 2019. The recruitment of the second 
cohort will begin in Q1’20.  

Sustainability Education

Wipro  earthian,  our  flagship  program  that  brings  together 
two of our key concerns, Education and Sustainability, into 
a  nation-wide  initiative  for  schools  and  colleges  continued 
to expand and progress on multiple fronts in its eighth year. 
In  the  schools  segment,  Wipro  earthian  is  now  present  in 
more  than  30  states  and  union  territories  across  India.  In 
the  past  couple  years,  we  have  consciously  established 
and  expanded  our  outreach  to  the  North-East  in  India  and 
the Northern Himalayas, which is normally underserved on 
many counts. While our strategy for schools is centered on 
broad awareness building through large scale outreach, our 
engagement with colleges is more selective and aligned with 
the  particular  characteristics  of  different  disciplines  and 
institutes.
Wipro  earthian  covers  two  phases  –  the  Wipro  earthian 
awards  program  and  the  Continuous  Engagement  Program 
(CEP).  The  award  program  for  schools  engage  students 
under  two  thematic  areas  -  Water  and  Biodiversity. 
Participating schools form teams and engage in an intensive 
5 month activity based learning program in their school and 
communities. The CEP provides unique learning experiences 
for schools and colleges – through experiential workshops, 
internships,  in-school  learning  material  and  co-creation  of 
faculty  led  pedagogy  material,  which  further  accelerates 
sustainability learning at an institutional level.

Technology Education

People  with  the  right  skills  and  competencies  form  the 
bedrock of IT services organizations.  The challenge for the 
Indian  IT  industry  has  always  been  to  respond  fast  enough 
to  the  ever  rapidly  changing  dynamics  of  the  industry.  The 
present  times  are  no  different,  in  fact  even  more  so  with 
the  challenge  of  a  bewilderingly  fast  changing  landscape 
of  technology  which  is  often  summarized  as  Industry  4.0.  
We  have  always  owned  this  as  our  primary  responsibility. 
In  1995,  we  started  a  program  for  science  graduates  that 
would  enable  them  to  study  for  a  post-graduate  degree 
in  engineering  and  technology,  called  the  Wipro  Academy 
of  Software  Excellence  (WASE)  program,  it  helps  Science 
graduates  to  study  for  a  Master’s  degree  in  Software 
Engineering  (M.Tech).  Run  in  partnership  with  the  Birla 
Institute  of  Technology  &  Science  (BITS),  Pilani,  India, 
this  unique  program  blends  rigorous  academic  exposure 

52

with  practical  professional  learning  at  the  workplace.  We 
launched yet another program with BITS Pilani, called Wipro 
Infrastructure  Management  School  (WIMS)  to  develop  and 
nurture  an  exclusive  talent  in  IT  infrastructure  business, 
keeping the Cloud Computing as the technology theme. We 
run  a  similar  program  called  Wipro  Software  Technology 
Academy  (WiSTA)  in  collaboration  with  Vellore  Institute 
of  Technology  (VIT)  for  science  graduates  to  offer  some 
specific  courses  like  Data  Scientists,  VLSI  and  Embedded 
and Information Technology programs.  Since its inception in 
1995,  Wipro  has  supported  and  enabled  more  than  30,000 
students to pursue their higher education in Engineering with 
India’s Premier Engineering Institutions under the programs 
WASE, WiSTA and WIMS. Over 18,200 students successfully 
completed their M.Tech degree in various IT disciplines over 
the  last  two  decades.  During  FY  2019,  the  total  number  of 
new  entrants  into  the  three  programs  was  1,440  while  the 
aggregate strength across four years was over 10,000.

Working with communities everywhere

A primary tenet of our CSR strategy is that we must engage 
with communities proximate to wherever we have significant 
operational presence in the world. We choose to work with 
underprivileged  communities  in  particular.  Our  work  is 
channeled through Wipro Cares, a unique trust that is based 
on  operating  model  of  employee  contribution  matched  by 
Wipro Limited. The work spans following areas:

a.  Education for underprivileged children: Education is so 
critical that it is necessary to focus on multiple points of 
leverage. While systemic reforms are  an important area 
of work, we also have a large program that is designed 
for  more  direct  impact  on  underprivileged  children. 
Run  through  Wipro  Cares,    the  program  reached  out  to 
around 41,000 children across eight states in FY 2019. 
The projects address a gamut of critical issues faced by 
disadvantaged  communities  when  it  comes  to  school 
education  –  starting  from  enrolment  in  schools  to 
nutrition  for  children,  counseling  services  for  parents, 
remedial education, just to name a few. These children 
are  from  some  of  the  most  vulnerable  groups  in  our 
society  –  urban  slums,  HIV-affected  families,  migrant 
labor families, street children.

b.  Education  for  Children  with  Disability:  We  continue  to 
strengthen our program which supports the educational 
and  rehabilitative  needs  of  children  with  disabilities 
from  underprivileged  backgrounds  through  17  projects 
across six states that works with around 2,200 children. 
Going  beyond  just  schooling,  our  approach  tries  to 
integrate  enabling  factors  like  availability  of  nutrition, 
community  support,  specially 
teachers, 
assistive technology, access to healthcare etc. Our work 
in this space covers multiple categories of disability and 
focuses on early intervention and inclusive education.

trained 

c.  Primary  Health  Care:  Access  to  primary  health  care  is 
a  key  determinant  of  an  individual’s  future  trajectory 

Annual Report 2018-19in  life,  including  the  ability  to  engage  in  productive 
livelihoods  and  responsible  citizenship.    Wipro  works 
with  partners  who  provide  quality  primary  health 
care  services  to  underserved  communities  covering 
more  than  77,000  people  belonging  to  extremely 
disadvantaged  communities  in  Nagaland,  Karnataka, 
Delhi  and  Maharashtra.  Our  work  in  these  states  is  in 
urban slums, and villages where health care access has 
been  weak  or  non-existent.  Our  operating  approach  is 
driven  by  the  primary  goals  of  building  the  capacity  of 
the local community in managing their health needs, of 
augmenting  government  infrastructure  and  in  training 
health  workers  to  address  the  unique  needs  of  the 
communities.

d.  Disaster  Rehabilitation:  Natural  disasters 

like 
earthquakes,  floods  and  cyclonic  storms  are  an 
unfortunate fact of life, especially in a climatically and 
geologically diverse country like India. Whenever these 
happen,  the  disadvantaged  sections  get  affected  the 
most as the already fragile basis of their livelihoods gets 
further disrupted. Starting with the Gujarat earthquake 
in  2001,  we  have  responded  to  several  natural 
calamities  wherein  Wipro’s  employees  have  also  risen 
to  the  occasion  and  played  a  sterling  role.  By  design, 
we  focus  on  the  more  difficult  challenge  of  long-term 
rehabilitation of the affected communities.  

‘Unnati’,  the  rehabilitation  project  that  we  initiated  in 
2014-15 in Uttarakhand, aftermath its 2013 floods, has 

Highlights of the year for our community care program 

progressed  well  on  multiple  fronts.  Our  program  seeks 
to  strengthen  local  livelihoods  of  communities  in  27 
villages in Uttarkashi district through improved farming 
practices in organic agriculture. A farmers’ cooperative 
has been set up to strengthen market linkages, a crucial 
element in the whole value chain. While we think there is 
a long way to go in this regard, our assessment is that the 
program is at a stage now where the basic institutional 
scaffolding is in place and it can be built up effectively, 
going  forward.  In  response  to  the  Kerala  floods  in  Aug 
2018, as part of our rehabilitation program we initiated 
two projects:

 »

 »

To  restore  running  of  8  craft-based  livelihood 
centres which have been dysfunctional as a result 
of  the  Kerala  floods  and  to  train  and  provide 
employment for 150 women with a special focus on 
30 persons with disabilities. 
To  strengthen  the  existing  livelihood  of  149  flood 
affected  fishermen  community  with  restoration  of 
damaged fishing equipment and gear.

e.  Community Ecology: Our project in agro-forestry in rural 
Tamil Nadu has helped nearly 100 farmers in effectively 
implementing  integrated  farming  by  planting  40,000

Wipro LimitedThe power of engaged employees

International Chapters

Employees  are  integral  to  many  of  our  social  programs  in 
many  ways.  Providing  them  a  platform  to  engage  develops 
a  sense  of  citizenship  and  larger  responsibility  towards 
society.  From  our  experience,  employees  also  see  this  as 
a  workplace  differentiator,  The  Wipro  Cares  trust  is  built 
on  a  model  of  employee  contribution  that  is  matched  by 
Wipro.  More  than  30,000  Wipro  employees  are  currently 
engaged  with  Wipro  Cares  either  through  volunteering  or 
by way   of monetary contributions or both. During FY 2019, 
more  than  12,500  employees  from  nearly  40  chapters  in 
India  and  overseas  collectively  spent  around  33,000  hours 
in voluntary engagement on a wide range of community and 
environmental initiatives. One of our prime goals is to further 
increase the scale and scope of employee engagement.

Our employees across the world are keen and enthusiastic 
participants in local community initiatives. Through Sprit of 
Wipro (SoW) Run, more than six thousand Wipro employees 
from  across  the  globe  contributed  for  their  local  charities.  
Beyond the SoW, in North America, First Book continues to 
be  the  anchor  community  program.  More  than  400  Wipro 
employees  volunteered  hundreds  of  hours  and  distributed 
more  than  109,000  books  impacting  more  than  50,000  at-
risk and rural students throughout North America. Including 
First  Book  activities,  Wipro  employees  volunteered  more 
than 5089 hours in the US.  

Beyond  the  US,  Wipro  Cares  chapters  in  Philippines,  UK, 
Europe, Asia-Pacific and Japan have also been very active in 
engaging with local communities on a range of initiatives that 
include  disaster  rehabilitation  (i.e.  Australia),  biodiversity 
conservation (i.e. Spain), health care (i.e. Europe & US), food 
drives  (i.e.  Brazil  &  US)  and  education  for  disadvantaged 
(i.e. 
children,  particularly  children  with  disabilities 
Philippines).    All  programs  remained  consistent  with  the 
Wipro Cares Charter.

Annual Report 2018-19Natural Capital

Managing economic development in a manner that does not 
compromise  ecological  integrity  of  our  planet  has  posed 
one  of  the  biggest  challenges  to  humanity  ever  since  the 
industrial  revolution  started.  It  will  be  even  more  so  in  the 
coming  decades  of  this  century.  It  is  no  surprise  therefore 
that 7 of the 17 U.N. Sustainable Development Goals directly 
reflect  these  concerns  while  the  remaining  10  goals  have 
indirect  intersects  with  ecology  and  environment  in  some 
way or the other. While the climate change challenge is most 
talked  about  and  debated,  the  problems  of  water  scarcity, 
biodiversity  loss  and  the  pollution  and  depletion  of  our 
natural commons are equally critical.

The increasing criticality  of issues like climate change and 
water  stress  in  the  last  few  years  has  led  organizations  to 
look beyond their boundaries. While internal business drivers 
like  resource  efficiency,  waste  management  and  pollution 
mitigation  have  been  the  primary  levers  of  any  corporate 
environmental program, organizations have come to realize 
that in order to make a real impact at a larger, systemic level, 
one can no longer ignore the externalized costs of ecological 
damage.  Natural  capital  thus  refers  broadly  to  the  notion 
that nature provides immense value that is critical to human 
existence  and  therefore,  any  action  that  depletes  natural 
capital is self-defeating for our society. 

Our approach embraces the continuum of
• 

Initiatives  ‘within  the  organization’  that  focus  on 
reducing  the  energy,  water,  waste  and  biodiversity 
footprint of our business operations; and
Engaging through partners on key external programs in 
community ecology.

Ecological Sustainability Governance

Sustainability  governance  at  Wipro 
is  formed  by  our 
strategic  choice  to  work  across  both  dimensions  –  
business  responsibility  and  social  responsibility.  Business 
responsibility is about ensuring that the ecological footprint 
of  its  operations  is  minimized  and  about  the  organization 
fulfilling  its  essential  regulatory  duties,  and  running  its 
business  with  integrity.  The  second  dimension  of  social 
responsibility  is  about  looking  beyond  the  boundaries  of 
organization and contributing towards development of  the 
larger  community.  The  governance  responsibility  is  spread 
across  hierarchies  and  functions  seeing  themselves  as 
key  stakeholders  in  its  success;  for  ecological  issues  the 
Global  Operations  team,  the  People  Function,  Community 
programs team, the Risk office and Employee Chapters play 
a major role in several of the programs. Strategic oversight of 
sustainability programs rest at the corporate level with our 
Chairman, Board of Directors and Group Executive Council. 
The  goals  and  objectives  are  jointly  set  with  inputs  from 
across functions. The quarterly reviews are attended by the 
Chairman, Chief Strategy Officer, Chief Financial Officer and 
Chief HR Officer apart from the Chief Sustainability Officer 
and  Head  of  Operations.  We  benchmark  our  performance 
with our global peers through extensive disclosures as well 
as a system of rigorous audits internal and external. We have 
started the process of incorporating key sustainability risks 
like climate change into our ERM framework.

Wipro LimitedManagement Approach

The implications of environmental and climate change risks 
to  our  business  and  to  our  society  at  large  demands  the 
identification  and  prioritization  of  material  issues  for  our 
organization . At Wipro, we have identified Energy efficiency 
and  Green  House  Gases  (GHG)  mitigation,  Water  efficiency 
and  Responsible  Water  management,  Pollution  and  Waste 
management, and Campus Biodiversity as our most material 
issues and have developed programs around them.

Our  Ecological  Sustainability  Policy,  available  at  https://
www.wipro.com/content/dam/nexus/en/sustainability/pdf/
ecological-sustainability-policy.pdf 
form  the  structural  
framework  for  our environmental programs  and management 
systems.  We  have  been  following  the  guidelines  of  the  ISO 
14001 framework for nearly two decades now as one of the 
cornerstones  of  our  Environmental  Management  System 
(EMS). 20 of our campus sites in India and 8 in Australia are 
certified  to  ISO  14001  and  OHSAS  18001  standard.  Other 
campuses  are  benchmarked against the  same standard  as 
a  part  of  our  internal  review/audit  process.  We  have  been 
responding  to  Carbon  Disclosure  Project  (CDP)  Climate 
Change  Investor  and  Supply  Chain  for  the  last  10  years. 
In  addition  we  have  applied  the  Natural  Capital  Protocol 
guidelines  to  publish  our  annual  Environmental  Profit  and 
Loss  account.    We    are  also  members  of  LfN  (Leaders  for 
Nature) consortium anchored by IUCN in India and CII’s India 
Business and Biodiversity initiative (IBBI). 

Strategic Partnerships are key to achieving our goals across 
the value chain. We work with Renewable energy suppliers, 
energy  efficient  hardware  manufacturers  and  service 
providers and other partners who help to reduce our overall 
GHG  footprint  including  employee  commute  and  business 
travel footprint. We were one of the early adopters of Green 
Building Design with 18 of our current buildings certified to 
the international LEED standard (Silver, Gold, and Platinum) 
during  commissioning.  We  strive  to  maintain  the  same 
standards in the maintenance of our facilities.

A well-defined strategy drives out ecological initiatives with 
a rigorous framework of target goals and metrics which are 
reviewed on a regular basis.

Environmental Risks

The  Enterprise  Risk  Management  and  Sustainability 
functions at Wipro jointly oversee environmental and climate 
change related risk identification and mitigation. Impacts of 
extreme  weather  events,  urban  water  stress,  air  pollution, 
waste  management  and  their  impacts  on  employee  health 
and  wellbeing  are  the  most  material  issues  we  engaged 
with. We are currently carrying out a comprehensive climate 
change  risk  assessment  program,  encompassing  both 
physical  and  transitional  risks,  for  our  major  operational 

locations across the globe, covering India, China, Philippines, 
Germany,  Romania,  the  UK  and  the  US.  This  is  being  done 
for  two  scenarios  (based  on  the  IPCC  defined  RCP  4.5  and 
RCP  8.5)  for  the  medium  to  long  term  (2030-2050).  .  This 
assessment  provides  detailed  analysis  of  the  changes  in 
key  climatic  parameters  such  as  temperature  and  rainfall 
that  are  likely  to  impact  Wipro’s  operations.  It  takes  into 
consideration  a  variety  of  climate  risks  which  include,  an 
increase in extremely hot days and extremely warm nights, 
increasing frequency of heat waves, exacerbated urban heat 
island  effect,  air  quality  deterioration,  urban  flooding  and 
decreasing water availability. 

Key outputs from climate modeling:

in  day-time  temperature 

Our  assessment  shows  that  we  are  likely  to  observe  an 
increase 
(0.02-2.98ºC)  and 
night-time  temperature  (0.35-1.74ºC)  across  all  locations 
except  Chennai,  where  a  decrease  (0.7  ºC)  in  the  day  time 
temperature is likely, in both the short term (by 2030) and long 
term (by 2050). This increase in day time temperatures could 
contribute  towards  an  increase  in  the  energy  consumption 
and associated operating costs at each location. This change 
could also adversely impact the health and well-being of our 
employees decreasing their productivity. 
When  it  comes  to  rainfall,  our  risk  assessment  model 
predicts an increase in rainfall, ranging from 11 to 267mm, 
for  every  city  except  Kolkata,  Pune  and  Vishakhapatnam 
which  will  likely  see  decreases  (13.2-126mm)  in  rainfall  in 
the long term. Increase in extreme precipitation is likely to 
lead  productivity  loss  due  to  employee  absence  caused  by 
disruption in city infrastructure and an increase in tropical 
diseases. Given that every city other than Kochi and Kolkata 
already  lie  in  highly  water  stressed  zones,  the  predicted 
rise in temperature coupled with increasing urbanization is 
likely to accelerate water stress. The corresponding increase 
in  rainfall  in  most  cities  is  unlikely  to  help  improve  this 
situation unless additional water conservation measures are 
taken  up  in  the  city. Thus,  across  the  country  we  are  likely 
to experience increasing challenges and costs for procuring 
water.

We notice that our operations in Romania, China, Philippines 
and USA are  likely to be susceptible to  physical risks such 
as floods, tropical storms and tornadoes. These events could 
impact the wellbeing of our employees in the affected regions 
thus  impacting  our  operations.  Philippines  in  particular  is 
likely to face significant fluctuations in rainfall and humidity 
patterns  which  could  lead  to  an  increase  in  the  spread  of 
infectious diseases in the country, affecting the health of our 
employees. On the other end of the spectrum, we find that our 
operations in Germany, the UK, the US, China and Romania, 
are the ones most exposed to transitional risks arising from 
policies  and  regulations  geared  towards  enabling  these 
countries’  transition  into  low  carbon  economies.  However, 
we  must  point  out  here  that  the  majority  (more  than  70%) 
of our employees are based out of India. In addition the fact 
that all our overseas locations are leased premises reduces 

56

Annual Report 2018-19the direct infrastructural risk in our overseas centers.  

Climate  change  related  impact:  Our  risk  assessment 
exercise  is  undertaken  at  both  the  company  level  and  at 
the  asset  level.  A  well-defined  Business  Continuity  Policy 
prescribes principles to plan for climatic  disruptions which 
could  disrupt  business  objectives.  The  Corporate  Business 
Continuity Team  (CBCMT)  governs  and  guides  the  standard 
risk  assessment  methodology  at  every  location  to  identify 
risks which could potentially impact continuity of business, 
financial  parameters  like  revenue  &  profitability  as  well  as 
reputational  and  legal  parameters. This  group  collaborates 
with  various  support  groups  in  the  organization  to  assess 
risks for human resources, facilities & IT infrastructure with 
identified impacts, probability/likelihood & controls in place. 
A severity matrix of Low, Medium & High impacts is defined 
and  a  defined  crisis  management  group  is  vested  with  the 
responsibility to respond, recover, resume, return & restore 
from  these  situations.  The  detailed  climate  modeling  and 
impact assessment exercise will help in further calibrating 
our risk management program.

Energy efficiency & GHG mitigation

Science  based  target  setting  and  recalibration  of  climate 
goals:  We  have  used  the  science  based  target  setting 
framework from WRI (World Resource  Institute)  that  tries 
to align with the 2015 Paris agreement which aims   to limit 
global warming to below 2 degrees celsius from pre-industrial 
levels. We have undertaken a recalibration of our greenhouse 
gas  emission  targets  to    account    for    two  organizational 
accounting  changes  –  the  first  due  to  divestment  of  our 
overseas customer data center business to Ensono and the 
second  based  on  requirements  of  GHG  protocol  standard 
of  accounting  all  leased/rented  office  spaces  emissions 
under Scope 3. Considering 2017 as the base year, we have 
set medium term targets till 2022 and 2030 and longer term 
targets till 2040 and 2050. The following goals have been set 
for the period FY 2018 to FY 2022:

Performance against goals

Absolute Emissions: The absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions 
(India) for FY 2019 have decreased by 40% from 1,61,858 to 
1,17,290  tonnes  -  a  reduction  of  over  44,500  tonnes.  This 
is  primarily  due  to  significant  drop  in  Scope  2  emissions 
by    29%  due  to  energy  efficiency  improvement  of  nearly 
18%  as  well  as  increase  in  share  of    in  renewable  energy 
procurement  from  33%  to  40%  .  In  addition  our  India  data 
center emissions have reduced significantly due to reduction 
in  capacity  utilization  and  divestment  in  the  middle  of  the 
year. 

The dashboard below provides a summary of our Global and 
India GHG emissions, including data centres. In accordance 
with  the  GHG  protocol,  from  2016-17,  we  have  reclassified 
leased  offices  (upstream  and  downstream)  as  part  of 
Scope-3.  The  figures  are  net  emissions  for  all  years,  after 
considering zero emissions for renewable energy procured.

Emissions  Intensity:  Our  India  office  space  emissions 
intensity  (Scope  1  and  Scope  2)  is  at  71.3  Kg  CO2  eq.  per 
Sq. Mt. per annum, a decrease of nearly 30 % from FY 2018.
Concomitantly the global people based emissions intensity 
is down by more than 29% to 0.85 tons per person per annum.

Energy Consumption: The overall energy consumption from 
Scope 1 and 2 boundaries (operational and financial control) 
is 900.8 million Mjoules, compared to 1344.3 million Mjoules 
in  the  previous  year,  a  reduction  of  33%.  The  total  energy 

57

consumption,  electricity  and  back-up  diesel  generated,  for 
office spaces in India is 225 million units (including leased 
spaces globally this is 265 million units). Our overseas data 
center business was divested before the reporting year. Data 
centers in India, till their divestment contributed to another 
5.1 million units.  

For  India  operations,  about  98  million  units  constituted 
renewable  energy  procured  through  PPAs  (Power  Purchase 
agreements) with private producers. Of this 92 million units 
is with green attributes (zero emissions). Another 10 million 
units  is  from  renewable  resources  for  our  downstream 
leased  space.  In  total  renewable  energy  in  our  portfolio  is 
108 million units.

Energy Intensity: EPI for owned office spaces, measured in 
terms of energy per unit area has decreased by around 18.5% 
to  142  KwH  units  per  sq.  meter  per  annum.  The  absolute 
energy has reduced by 14%  for the reporting year. The office 
space has increased by 5.3% in the reporting year.

Scope  3  Emissions:  A  summary  of  our  Scope  3  emissions 
(other  indirect  sources)  is    provided    below.    Out    of    the  
15  categories  of  scope  3  reporting  as  per  the  new  GHG

Wipro Electronic City campus

Annual Report 2018-19Wipro’s  electronics  city  campus  was  awarded  the  Greenco 
Silver  Rating  by  CII-GBC  (Green  Business  Center).  We  were 
the  first  campus  in  IT  Services  sector  to  have  received 
the  award.  The  rating  is  provided  based  on  700  points 
performance covering energy efficiency, water conservation, 
renewable  energy,  GHG  emission 
reduction,  waste 
management, material conservation, green supply chain and 
other innovations.

GHG Mitigation Measures

Our  five  year  GHG  mitigation  plan  consists  of  three  key 
elements  –  Energy  Efficiency  (Reduce),  Renewable  Energy 
(RE)  Purchase  (Replace)  and  Travel  Substitution  (Reduce 
and  Replace);  of  this,  RE  procurement  will  contribute  the 
maximum,  80%  share  to  GHG  emission  mitigation  strategy 
for Scope 1 and 2.

Energy  Efficiency:  These  measures  include  new  retrofit 
technologies  to  improve  Chiller  and  Air  Handling  Units 
integrated  design  and  monitoring  platforms. 
(AHUs), 
The  Global  Energy  command  centre  aggregates  Building 
Management  System  inputs  on  a  common  platform  to 
optimize operational control and improve energy efficiency. 
At one of our campuses, we have seen a 15% YoY reduction 
in  absolute  energy  consumption.  This  has  been  achieved 
by  operating  the  plant  in  auto-mode  (based  on  real  time 
demand),  performance  monitoring  of  equipment  and 
optimization of air-water balance in chiller plant -   resulting 
in improved thermal comfort.

Global Energy Command Center

Since 2007, we have been working on a server rationalization 
and  virtualization  program,  through  which  we  have 
decommissioned  old  physical  servers  and  replaced  the 
processing capacity with virtualization technology on fewer 
numbers of servers. As of March 2019, we have 6,750 virtual 
servers (4,780 in March 2018) running on 386 physical servers 
which contributes to an energy savings of approximately 29 
million  units  in  the  reporting  year.  The  savings  showed  an 
increase  of  44%  over  the  previous  year.  We  have  enhanced 
our  Virtual  Desktop  Infrastructure  (VDI)  capacity  to  8,000.  
VDI’s  provide  high  capacity  scalable  infrastructure  with  On 
Demand provisioning, High Availability and High Performance 
Computing environment. Out of this, we have  enabled  6,300 

VDI’s  across  two  of  our  campuses  in  the  year.  Thin  clients 
consumes  less  energy  (80%  less)  compared  to  Desktop, 
resulting in savings of 0.75 million units. Over a 5 year period, 
energy efficiency initiatives have resulted in savings of 140 
million units (based on per capita consumption).

RE  procurement:  For  the  reporting  period  of  FY  2019,  RE 
purchase  contributed  to  approximately  92  million  units 
or  40%  of  our  total  India  energy  consumption.  Our  target 
for  next  year  is  105  million  units.  RE  procurement  has 
cumulatively helped avoid emissions of 330,000 tons of CO2 
eq. over a 5 year period.

Rooftop  Solar  and  Captive  RE:  The  rooftop  Solar  PV 
installations at 6 of our campuses followed by extensive use 
of  solar  water  heaters  in  our  guest  blocks  and  cafeterias 
have  resulted  in  equivalent  savings  of  1.54  million  units  of 
grid electricity in the reporting year

Business Travel: The IT services outsourcing model requires 
frequent  travel  across  the  delivery  life  cycle  to  customer 
locations, mainly overseas, and contributes to around 1/5th 
of  our  overall  emissions  footprint.  This  includes  travel  by 
air, bus, train, local conveyance and hotel stays. Policies on 
usage  of  different  modes  of  travel  based  on  distance  and 
time  taken,  need  and  budget-based  travel  and  increasing 
focus  on  processes  which  enable  remote  working  and 
collaboration are some of the cost and process optimization 
measures  implemented  over  past  few  years.  We  have  seen 
an air travel footprint reduction of around 21% compared to 
FY 2018. 

Employee  Commute:  Employees  have  various  choices  for 
intra-city  commuting.  In  addition  to  company  arranged 
transport  (36%),  employees  owned  cars  &  two  wheelers 
contribute  to  12%  and  other  modes  of  transport  including  
public transport account for the balance.

Over  the  past  few  years,  we  have  taken  steps  to  facilitate  
a  shift  towards  improved  access  to  public  transport  for 
employees  (buses,  commuter  trains)  and  carpooling.  Our 
car pooling initiative launched through a third-party mobile 
app based partners in July’16 in Bengaluru has now scaled 
and  expanded  to  8  other  locations  in  India.  With  this,  we 
now have 74,000 registered users across locations. Around 9 
Million kms of rides were shared in the reporting year saving 
2100 tons of CO2 equivalent emissions 

We became the first major Indian business to join EV100 in 
April  2018,  a  commitment  to  transition  our  global  fleet  to 
electric  vehicles  (EVs)  by  2030.  EV100  is  a  global  initiative 
by  The  Climate  Group  bringing  together  forward-looking 
companies  committed  to  accelerating  the  transition  to 
electric vehicles (EVs). In the current year (since July 2018), 
2.0  Million  Kms  across  33,000  trips  have  been  covered  in 
Hyderabad,  the  first  location  where  we  have  started  the 
program.

Water efficiency and responsible use

Urban water in India is a story of paradoxes and extremities. 
Water  related  risks  in  cities  range  from  supply  shortages, 
equitable  availability  to  all  sections  of  the  population  to 
urban  flooding  driven  by  extreme  weather  events.  This  is 
symptomatic of a failure in urban planning and governance 
of a critical resource as water. At Wipro, we view water from 
the inter-related lens of efficiency and conservation coupled 
with our role as a responsible citizen in engaging with urban 
water  issues  outside  our  own  boundaries.  Our  articulated 
goals are therefore derived from these three dimensions.

Water Efficiency

Goals
a.  To  improve  water  efficiency  (fresh  water  use  per 

employee) by 5% year on year

b.  To  reduce  absolute  water  consumption  in  existing 

campuses by 20% between FY 2016 and FY 2021

Water Responsibility

To  ensure  responsible  water  management  in  proximate 
communities, especially in locations that are prone to water 
scarcity. We are also collaborating on building capacity and 
advocacy  platforms  at  the  city  level  for  integrated  urban 
water management.

Freshwater recycling and efficiency

The per employee water consumption for the reporting year 
is 951 litres per month as compared to 991  litres in FY 2018, 
an improvement of around 4%. Freshwater consumption has 
seen a marginal increase from last year at 1518 million Liters 
essentially due to few leakages from aging pipeline network. 
Real-time monitoring pilots are being implemented in two of 

60

our campuses. Water free systems (where applicable), smart 
metering,  optimizing  heating  and  cooling  and  recycling  of 
blow  down  are  other  initiatives  being  explored.  However, 
we  have  achieved  18%  reduction  in  absolute  fresh  water 
consumption from FY 2016 and are on target to exceed our 
target of 20% reduction by FY 2021.

We  recycle  1,090  million  litres  of  water  in  27  of  our  major 
locations  (vs  1,045  million  litres  in  FY  2018)  using  Sewage 
Treatment Plants (STPs) and ultra-filtration units.

Recycled  water  represents  42%  of  our  total  water 
consumption  (vs  41%  in  the  previous  year).  The  amount  of 
recycled  water  as  a  percentage  of  freshwater  extracted  is 
around 72%, up from 69% in FY 2018. This improvement in 
efficiency  is  due  to  the  adoption  of  ultra-filtration  and  RO 
projects  for  STP  treated  water  at  three  our  large  locations. 
Of the total treated water (1090 million liters), 62% is used 
for  flushing  and  6%  is  used  in  cooling  tower.  The  balance 
32%  is  used  for  our  landscapes  –  the  quality  is  equivalent 
to  freshwater  (Less  than TDS  of  1000).  Our  water  recycling 
initiatives  have  cumulatively  saved  5030  million  liters  of 
water over a 5 year period.

Sourcing  of  Water:  Our  water  is  from  four  sources  –  
private  water  (mainly  ground  water  sourced  from  tanker 
water  suppliers),  municipal  water  supply,  in-situ  ground 
water  and  harvested  rain  water    –    with    the    first    two 
sources  accounting  for  nearly  98%  of  the  sourced  water. 
Water  purchased  from  private  sources  can  be    traced    to  
have  been  primarily  extracted  from  ground  water.  Not 
surprisingly, ground water contributes to nearly 56% of our 
total  freshwater  consumption  across  cities  in  India  –  an 
overexploited resource which has also been largely left out  
of effective governance mechanisms. Our urban/ peri-urban 
facilities    located  in  three  states  –  Karnataka,  Tamil  Nadu 
and  Telengana,  are  located  in  water  stressed  basins.      The

Collaborative advocacy on water

Recognizing  that  water  is  a  common  resource  and  that 
internal operational efficiency is inadequate when it comes 
to  water  risks,  Wipro  has  been  partnering  with  experts 
organizations,  citizen  groups  and  government  bodies  to 
address  issues  affecting  the  communities  in  the  proximity 
of our locations.

Participatory Ground Water Management Program

In the last four years, the program has attempted to explore 
the  issues  of  ground  water  in  two  regions  of  the  city  of 
Bengaluru  –  Sarjapur  Road  and  Devanahalli    –  both    of 
which    are  completely  dependent  on  ground  water  and 
which  is  largely  serviced  by  informal  private  players.  This 
is  representative  of  many  rapidly  developing  urban  and 
peri-urban  cities  in  India;  in  Bengaluru  itself  around  40% 
of  its  water  needs  is  met  by  ground  water.  Our  approach 
was  to  use  a  science  based  approach  to  understand  the 
hydrogeology of the area and engage communities through 
various  platforms  (citizen  science,  advocacy,  facilitation  of 
interventions). Phase 1 of the three year participative ground 
water management program in the Sarjapur-Bellandur area 
has  been    completed.  Acting  on  insights  from  the  detailed 
aquifer  map  of  the  area,  we  have  facilitated  pilots  in 
selected  residential  layouts  that  focus  on  a  strategic  shift 
from deep aquifer extraction to tapping shallow aquifers in 
combination with a sustainable cycle of rainwater harvesting. 
A  multi  lingual  web  portal  http://bengaluru.urbanwaters.
in/  has  evolved  into  a  comprehensive  repository  and  ready 
reference  for  matters  related  to  urban  water  in  Bengaluru.  
Phase  2  of  the  program  is  looking  at  Devanahalli  area,  a 
rapidly  transitioning  zone  of  the  city.  Engagements  with 

town  municipality,  Special  Economic  Zone  and  townships 
in the area are progressing well with exemplar stakeholder 
led  projects  like  in  stream  sewage  decontamination  pilot 
and  community  well  restoration  being  documented  and 
implemented. Another program we are working on is Urban 
Wetland  Program  in  Bengaluru.  Here  we  are  documenting 
wetland design and management protocols based on various 
lakes in the city.

We  are  also  considering  creating  a  pan  India  urban    water 
network  for  practitioners  working  on  local  water  resources 
and citizen based governance. 
In  Pune,  we  have  commissioned  a  program  to  produce  a 
citizens report on Pune’s aquifers and the city’s groundwater 
footprint. The study will interface with multiple stakeholders, 
including  the  government  and  produce  a  longer  term 
proposal on Pune’s urban water governance with a focus on 
Pune’s ground water and the river systems

Pollution and waste management

Pollution  of  air  and  water  poses  one  of  the  most  serious 
threats  to  community  health  and  welfare.  Managing  these 
‘commons’  in  an  urban  context  again  requires  business 
organizations  to  look  beyond  its  own  boundaries  and  to 
adopt an integrated approach.

Our waste management strategy includes 
a.  Regular  monitoring  of  air,  water  and  noise  pollution  to 

operate well within regulatory norms. 

b.  Reducing materials impact through recycling and reuse
 Arranging for safe disposal of waste that goes outside 
c. 
our  organizational  boundaries.  To  operationalize  our 
strategy,  we  segregate  and  monitor  waste  processing 
across 13 broad categories and nearly 40 sub categories.

Total waste generated during FY 2019 was 6,205 tons.  The 
summary  of  our  performance  on  solid  waste  management 
(SWM) is as follows:

•  Our current recycling rate is 81% (excluding construction 
and demolition debris). 84% of organic waste is recycled 
in house and the balance sent as animal feed  outside 
the  campus.  Close  to  100%  of  the  inorganic  waste 
is  recycled  through  approved  partners.  70%  of  the 
total mixed solid waste and scrap (up from 65% in the 
previous year) is currently recycled and the rest sent to 
landfills.  Our  target  is  to  improve  this  to  80%  by  2021. 
Biomedical  and  hazardous  waste  is  incinerated  as  per 
approved methods. All our E-waste is currently recycled 
by  approved  vendors.  Construction  and  Demolition 
(C&D)  debris,  which  amounts  to  10%  of  total  waste  is 
currently  sent  to  approved  landfills.  Construction  and 
Demolition Debris from existing operations has reduced 
by  half  due  to  completion  of  refurbishment  activity 
across locations.

61

Wipro Limited• 

The  proportion  of  waste  that  is  send  to    landfill 
is 
(excluding  construction  and  demolition  debris) 
currently  at  3.4%.  This  is  mainly  mixed  scrap  and 
solid  waste,  which  can  not  be  further  segregated  and 
recycled.  We  plan  to  evaluate  co-processing  options 
for  this  category  of  waste  in  cement  manufacturing.

Urban Biodiversity

Our urban biodiversity program addresses the twin aims of 
creating biodiversity in our urban campuses while also using 
it as a platform for wider education and advocacy. We have 
set the following goals:

• 

• 

To convert five of our existing campuses to biodiversity 
zones
All new campuses to incorporate biodiversity principles 
into their design

Recyle  

Landfill  

-   81% 

-   3%

Other Methods   -   10%

Incineration  

-   6%

Others: We monitor diesel generator stack emissions (NOX, 
SOX  and  SPM),  indoor  air  quality  (CO,  CO2,  VOC’s,  RSPM), 
treated water quality and ambient noise levels across 25 key 
locations every month. These meet the specified regulatory 
norms.

Collaborative Engagements

Zero  Plastic  Initiative:  We  generate  around  120  tons  of 
plastic waste every year. At present, this is sent to approved 
recyclers.  However  we  aim  to  significantly  reduce  plastic 
waste by looking at close to 20+ categories and introducing 
process  changes  and  engaging  with  suppliers.  Some 
examples  of  plastic  reduction  initiative  are  replacement  of 
single use cutlery, packing, etc.

We continue to work with Electronic City Industrial Township 
Authority (ELCITA) in Bengaluru on SWM issues. We continue 
to be part of the sub-committee on ‘Waste’ in the CII National 
Environment Committee. We are associated with “Reimagine 
Waste” hackathon for the past three years, being conducted 
in  association  with  Indian  Institute  of  Science,  Bengaluru, 
Waste Ventures and other partners. We supported a study to 
understand  the  contribution  of  informal  economy  to  waste 
and material recycling in Bengaluru. This study was done by 

Wetland biodiversity zone 

Our  first  flagship  project  in  biodiversity  was  the  unique 
Butterfly  Park  and  wetland  biodiversity  zone  that  uses 
recycled water at the Electronic City campus in Bengaluru. 
Our second project in Pune focused on trebling the number 
of  native  species  and  includes  five  thematic  gardens  – 
Aesthetic  and  palm  garden,  Spring  garden,  Ficus  garden, 
Spice and Fruit garden. This is a unique project in a corporate 
campus setting with a dense year-round flowering of more 
than 240 species of native plants serving multiple ecological 
purposes. In all these programs we work closely with expert 
partners  in  biodiversity,  conservation,  ecological  design 
and communications. A work environment which integrates 
biodiverse  and  natural  design  principles  has  multiple 
intangible benefits for employees and visitors – it builds a 
larger  sense  of  connectedness  and  emphasizes  values  of 
sensitivity and our place in the world around us. To strengthen 
these connects, we regularly conduct photography sessions, 
nature  walks  and  plantation  activities  for  employees  and 
their children. 

Collaborative  advocacy:  Our  participation  in  advocacy 
on  biodiversity  issues  is  through  the  Leaders  for  Nature 
program  from  the  India  chapter  of  International  Union  of 

62

Annual Report 2018-19 
Conservation Networks (IUCN). We have been supporting the 
“World Sparrow Day” and the “Wipro-Nature Forever Society 
Sparrow  Awards”  for  the  past  six  years.  We  also  chair  the 
Bengaluru chapter of CII’s Greenco program.

Wipro’s Natural Capital Valuation 
Program

Bengaluru Sustainability Forum (BSF)

This forum was set up in early 2018 and convened by Wipro 
along with the National Center for Biological Sciences. BSF 
brings together civil society, academia, research institutions 
and  government  with  the  broad  goals  of  fostering  curated 
interactions  between  different  stakeholders  on  issues  of 
urban sustainability. Over the past year, the forum has curated 
three  retreats  on  the  themes  of  Urban  Water,  Biodiversity 
and  Climate  Change.  Complementing  the  network  building 
has been the small grants program for collaborative projects 
–  nine  proposals  from  the  first  two  themes  of  urban  water 
and biodiversity were selected.

Valuation  of  natural  capital  externalities  of  a  company 
serves multiple objectives : 

a.  For the company, it provides a useful anchoring ref-
erence of how large its externalities are when com-
pared to the financial capital and value it has creat-
ed for its shareholders. It also serves as a common 
lexicon for strategic conversations on natural capi-
tal within and outside the company

b.  For investors, it is an indicator of the company’s risk 
profile when weighed against current and future en-
vironmental regulations 

c.  For  interested  citizen  groups,  it  helps  provide  a 
more  nuanced  understanding  of  the  company’s 
profile. We have been active and enthusiastic early 
adopters  of  natural  capital  valuation  and  it  aligns 
very  well  with  our  larger  emphasis  on  Integrated 
Reporting,  This  is  the  fourth  year  of  the  valuation

and renewable energy procurement. Valuation for FY 2019 is 
unlikely to vary significantly different and will be completed 
in July 2019.

Pursuant to Regulation 43A of the Securities and Exchange 
Board  of  India  (Listing  Obligations  and  Disclosure 
Requirements) Regulations, 2015, as amended (“Listing 
Regulations”),  the  Board  has  approved  and  adopted  a 
Dividend  Distribution  Policy. The  policy  details  various 
considerations based on which the Board may recommend 
or  declare  Dividend,  dividend  track  record,  usage  of 
retained earnings for corporate actions, etc. The policy is 
available on the Company’s website at https://www.wipro.
com/investors/corporate-governance. 

Pursuant  to  the  approval  of  the  Board  of  Directors  on 
January 18, 2019, your Company paid an interim dividend 
of ` 1/- per equity share of face value of ` 2/- each, to 
shareholders  who  were  on  the  register  of  members  as 
on  January  30,  2019,  being  the  record  date  fixed  for 
this  purpose.  The  Board  has  not  recommended  a  final 
dividend  and  the  interim  dividend  of  `  1/-  declared  by 
the  Board  in  January  2019  shall  be  considered  as  the 
final dividend for the financial year 2018-19. Thus, the 
total  dividend  for  the  financial  year  2018-19  remains  
` 1 per equity share.

Your  Company  is  in  compliance  with  its  Dividend 
Distribution policy as approved by the Board.

Issue of Bonus Equity Shares

The Board of Directors at their meeting held on January 
18, 2019, recommended issue of bonus equity shares, in 
the  proportion  of  1:3,  i.e.  1  (One)  bonus  equity  share  of  
` 2/- each for every 3 (three) fully paid-up equity shares 
held (including American Depository Shares (“ADS”)). The 
said  bonus  issue  was  approved  by  the  Members  of  the 
Company vide resolution dated February 22, 2019 passed 
through postal ballot/e-voting, subsequent to which, on

to the Members whose names appeared on the register 
of members as on March 7, 2019, being the record date 
fixed for this purpose.

As part of the aforesaid allotment, 106,273 bonus equity 
shares representing fractional entitlement(s) of eligible 
Members were consolidated and allotted to the trustee 
appointed  by  the  Board.  Subsequently,  the  trustee  sold 
such  equity  shares  at  the  prevailing  market  price  and 
distributed  the  net  sale  proceeds,  after  adjusting  the 
costs and expenses in respect thereof, among the eligible 
Members  in  proportion  to  their  respective  fractional 
entitlements.

Buyback of Equity Shares 

On  April  16,  2019,  the  Board  approved  a  proposal  to 
buyback up to 323,076,923 (Thirty Two Crores Thirty Lakhs 
Seventy  Six Thousand  Nine  Hundred  and Twenty Three) 
equity shares of the Company for an aggregate amount 
not exceeding ` 105,000,000,000/- (Rupees Ten Thousand 
Five Hundred Crores only), being 23.03% of the aggregate 
of the fully paid-up equity share capital and free reserves 
as per the audited standalone balance sheet as at March 
31, 2019, at a price of ` 325/- (Rupees Three Hundred and 
Twenty Five) per equity share. 

Subsequently,  vide  resolution  dated  June  1,  2019,  the

 Computation of remuneration to Chief Executive Officer and Executive Director, and Chief Financial Officer is 
on an accrual basis and it includes the amortization of Restricted Stock Units (RSU) granted to them, which 
will vest over a period of time. This also includes RSUs that will vest based on performance parameters of 
the Company.

 Computation of remuneration of Executive Director and Chief Strategy Officer includes cash bonus (part 
of his variable pay) on an accrual basis, which is payable over a period of time.

 Computation of remuneration of Company Secretary includes perquisites value of Restricted Stock Units 
exercised during the financial year and does not include grant of such options.

5. 

 The Company affirms that the remuneration is paid as per the remuneration policy of the Company. 

Variable Pay Compensation

The variable pay of top executives including the Chief Executive Officer and Executive Directors is based on clearly laid 
out criteria and measures, which are linked to the desired performance and business objectives of the organization. 
The criteria for variable pay, which is paid out annually, includes both financial and non-financial parameters like 
revenue, profit achievement, customer satisfaction and other strategic goals as decided by the Board from time to time.

Apart from the variable pay component, long term (typically greater than one year) incentives granted to the Chief 
Executive  Officer  and  Executive  Director  includes  both  time-based  and  performance-based  stock  units  (PSUs). 
The  vesting  of  PSUs  is  based  on  performance  parameters  of  the  Company  over  a  two-year  period  and  is  linked 
to pre-defined financial goals. Time-based stock units typically vest over a four-year period. The vesting pattern 
and  schedule  for  both  these  types  of  stock  units  are  as  determined  by  the  Board  Governance,  Nomination  and 
Compensation Committee.

Annual Report 2018-19 
 
Corporate Social Responsibility Report for the year 2018-19

Annexure V

We  present  our  report  on  Wipro’s  social  and  ecological 
initiatives for the year 2018-19. Our journey began in 2001 
with our first intervention in school education. Since then 
we  have  added  new  domains,  and  increased  the  scale 
of  our  programs  and  partnerships.  However,  what  has 
remained constant underlying all our social initiatives has 
been our core principles and values. We start this report 
by reiterating the core values and strategic drivers  of our 
Corporate Social Responsibility charter:

 The values of Spirit of Wipro guide all our actions. Our 
values ‘Respect for every individual’, ‘Being global and 
responsible’ and ‘Unyielding integrity’ are essential 
tenets  of  the  letter  and  spirit  of  a  responsible 
business.

 To  conduct  our  business  on  the  basis  of  sound 
ethical  principles  and  widely  accepted  principles 
of  good  corporate  governance.  While  this  starts 
with  compliance  with  laws  and  regulations  of  the 
countries we operate in, it goes far beyond that.

 To continually evolve and progress in our journey of 
making  Wipro  more  sustainable  as  defined  by  the 
triple bottom-line framework. The primary areas of 
focus  are    (i)  to  reduce  our  ecological  footprint  on 
energy, water and waste (ii) to foster a more diverse, 
empowered fair and safe workplace (iii) to enhance 
employees’  individual  development  that  aligns 
with  larger  organizational  goals  and  (iv)  to  actively 
influence  our  supply-chain  in  making  them  more 
responsible and sustainable organizations. 

 To  combine  work  that  is  systemic  and  long-term 
with  more  direct,  tangible  programs.  The  nature 
of  challenges  in  the  social  sector  require  both 
approaches  and  over  the  years,  we  have  evolved 
a  carefully  crafted  strategy  that  blends  both.  For 
example,  in  education,  we  support  deep  work  that 
seeks to improve the quality of subject learning using 
the  teacher  as  the  pivotal  center.  Such  work  takes 
years and decades to show results. On the other hand, 
we  also  support  more  tangible,  specific  initiatives 
that help children from underprivileged communities 
with access to schooling.

 To  work  with  communities  proximate  to  our 
operational centers in India and overseas. As a global 
organization,  we  would  like  to  emphasize  that  the 
imperative of working on societal issues is a central 
plank of our approach not just in India but everywhere 
in the world we operate in.

We  present  the  salient  highlights  of  our  initiatives  for 
2018-19 below. In addition, you will find a more detailed 
summary  of  our  sustainability  and  social  initiatives  as 
part of the ‘Management Discussion and Analysis’(MD&A) 
section  that  is  based  on  the  principle  of  integrated 
reporting.  Our  integrated  reporting  covers  financial, 
human,  intellectual,  natural  and  social  capitals  and 
reinforces  the  fundamental  principle  of  continuity  and 
connectedness between business and society.  Our work in 
CSR creates social value by contributing to social inclusion, 
empowerment  of  the  disadvantaged  and  mitigating  of 
ecological  degradation. This  has  cascading  impacts  on 
all the five capitals. For example, our work in education 
generates positive social, human and intellectual capital.  
For a fuller understanding, you may also want to refer to 
our  comprehensive  annual  sustainability  reports  based 
on  Global  Reporting  Initiative  principles.  These  and 
various other details are available at our primary website  
www.wipro.com  and    at  www.wipro.org,  our  website 
focusing exclusively on our social initiatives.

A.  Education

 We believe good education empowers people, enables 
genuine progress and is the foundation for a society’s 
well-being. Two of the key challenges for education 
are  ensuring  universal  access  and  good  quality  of 
education. All our work in education tries to address 
either or both of these challenges. Started in 2001, 
our  education  initiatives  cover  a  wide  range  of 
thematic areas across school and higher education 
which are highlighted below. The main geographies 
of our work are in India, USA and UK. 

 A.1  Systemic  reforms  in  school  education:  Since 
2001,  we  have  worked  to  contribute  to  systemic 
reform  in  school  education  in  India.  The  strategy 
for  this  has  been  to  support  the  development  and 
strengthening  of  good  organizations  working  in 
in  this  space.  We  have  partnered  with  over  116 
organizations  across  22  states  in  India  with  an 
effective reach of 20,000 schools, 40,000 educators 
and  a  million  children.  The  impact  of  this  wide 
network of education organizations has been in the 
areas of curriculum development, text books, teacher 
development  and  school  leadership.  The  Wipro 
Education  Seeding  Fellowship  program  is  a  recent 
initiative started to catalyze the passion and energy 
of young individuals who want to make a difference 
to education. Currently, we have a network of 90 such 
Fellows working on several innovative areas of school 

Wipro Limited 
 
education including arts, sports, science and math in 
education.

 A.2  Education  for  underprivileged  children: 
Complementing the above initiative is a large program 
designed  for  more  direct  impact  on  children  from 
underprivileged  communities. The  focus  here  is  on 
ensuring access to good education.  A specific priority 
within this larger canvas is to address the needs  of 
children  with  disability  from  socio-economically 
underprivileged backgrounds. Our effective reach is 
to more than 40,000 children and 2,200 children with 
disability. The program is run through Wipro Cares, the 
employee-supported trust of Wipro. 

 A.3.  Science  education  in  U.S.A.  and  UK:  Started 
in  2012,  the  Wipro  Science  Education  Fellowship 
(SEF)  is  a  program  designed  to  develop  teachers’ 
capacities to teach better in their schools and also 
help other teachers in the school district teach better. 
The program is focused on contributing to improving 
Science and Math education in schools that primarily 
serve disadvantaged communities in US cities. 

 We expanded our program significantly during FY19 
–  we  now  work  with  7  university  partners  across 
the US who under the stewardship of University of 
Massachusetts engage intensively with 500 school 
teachers across 35 schools districts in 7 states. Our 
program has received wide and enthusiastic support 
and represents one of the largest such investments 
made by a non-US company to the cause of improving 
science and math education. 

 In  2018,  we  started  a  similar  program  in  the  UK  in 
partnership with Kings College, London and Sheffield 
Hallam University with the core objective of building 
professional capacities of in-service school teachers 
of Science and Math. 

 We would like to state that while this expenditure is 
not allowed under the CSR rules of the Companies 
Act  2013,  it  is  important  to  highlight  it  as  part 
of  our  report.  For  it  emphasizes  a  core  principle 
that  corporations  must  engage  with  social  issues 
wherever  they  have  large  operational  presence  in 
the world and therefore restricting it to India would 
present an incomplete and partial picture of what we 
do.

 A.4  Sustainability  Education:  Wipro-earthian 
is  our  India-wide  flagship  program  that  brings 
together  two  of  our  key  concerns,  Education  and 
Sustainability. The program works at multiple levels 
– with schools and colleges, students and faculty 
all  woven  together  through  a  narrative  that  our 
educational institutes must lead the change in our 
mindsets, attitudes and knowledge when it comes 

to reversing the damage to our natural environment 
and to making our planet more habitable again. In 
the schools segment, the Wipro-earthian program 
has  a  large  reach  to  more  than  2,200  schools 
and  2,600  teachers  across  32  states  and  union 
territories  in  India.  In  the  colleges  segment,  our 
work  is  characterized  by  very  interesting  faculty-
led initiatives in some of India’s leading institutes 
in  the  fields  of  Engineering,  Management  and 
Urban Planning. In addition, college students get to 
participate in the Wipro-earthian quiz which is now 
the country’s premier such program with more than 
3,300 students from 28 of India’s leading colleges 
participating  in  a  multi-tier  exercise  spread  over 
six months. We also anchor an internship  program 
for  selected  college  students  where  they  get  to 
work with some of India’s leading organizations in 
sustainability.

 A.5 Technology Education: People with the right skills 
and  competencies  form  the  bedrock  of  IT  services 
organizations.  The challenge for the Indian IT industry 
has always been to respond fast enough to the ever 
changing  dynamics  of  the  industry.  The  present 
times are no different, in fact even more so with the 
challenge of a bewilderingly fast changing landscape 
which is often characterized as Industry 4.0.  We have 
always owned this as our primary responsibility. In 
1995,  we  started  a  program  for  science  graduates 
that would enable them to study for a post-graduate 
degree  in  engineering  and  technology.  Called  the 
Wipro  Academy  of  Software  Excellence  (WASE) 
program,  it  helps  Science  graduates  to  study  for 
a  Master’s  degree  in  Software  Engineering.  Run  in 
partnership  with  the  Birla  Institute  of  Technology 
& Science (BITS), Pilani, India. This unique program 
blends  rigorous  academic  exposure  with  practical 
professional learning at the workplace. We recently 
launched  another  program  with  BITS  Pilani,  called 
Wipro  Infrastructure  Management  School  (WIMS) 
to  develop  and  nurture  exclusive  talent  in  IT 
infrastructure  business,  keeping  Cloud  Computing 
as  the  technology  theme.  We  also  run  a  program 
called WISTA in collaboration with Vellore Institute 
of  Technology  (VIT)  for  science  graduates  to  offer 
specific  courses  around  Data  Science,  VLSI  and 
Embedded Technology programs.  In total, more than 
10,200 students are enrolled in these programs.

B.  Community Care

 A  core  principle  of  our  CSR  strategy  is  that  we 
must  engage  meaningfully  with  disadvantaged 
communities who are proximate to our facilities. Our 
work  is  channeled  through  Wipro  Cares,  a  unique 
platform  that  is  based  on  the  operating  model  of 
employee contributions which are matched by Wipro 

89

Annual Report 2018-19 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Limited  1:1.  Our  work  spans  primary  health-care, 
school education, community ecology and disaster 
rehabilitation.  Of  these,  we  have  already  spoken 
about our work on community education in Section 
A2  above.  We  present  below  updates  on  the  other 
dimensions.

 B.1  Primary  health  care:  Access  to  primary  health 
care  is  a  key  determinant  of  an  individual’s  future 
trajectory  in  life,  including  the  ability  to  engage  in 
productive  livelihoods  and  responsible  citizenship.  
Wipro Cares works with partners who provide good 
quality primary health care services to underserved 
communities.  Our  work  focuses  on  maternal  and 
child health, community hygiene and nutrition. Our 
six  projects  in  this  area  have  an  effective  reach  of 
72,000 people.

 B.2  Disaster  rehabilitation:  Natural  disasters  like 
earthquakes,  floods  and  cyclonic  storms  are  an 
unfortunate  fact  of  life,  especially  in  a  climatically 
and geologically diverse country like India. Whenever 
these  happen,  the  disadvantaged  sections  get 
affected  the  most  as  the  already  fragile  nature  of 
their livelihoods gets disrupted further. Starting with 
the Gujarat earthquake in 2001,we have responded to 
several natural calamities in which Wipro’s employees 
have played a central role by way of contributions and 
volunteering. As a matter of choice, we focus on the 
more difficult challenge of long term rehabilitation 
of the affected communities. In 2018, Kerala was hit 
by a rare flooding event of catastrophic magnitude. 
Our employees rallied immediately in terms of relief 
and rehabilitation - 800 boxes of relief material were 
distributed in the immediate aftermath of the event 
followed by the launch of two long-term rehabilitation 
programs  that  seek  to  restore  livelihoods  of  300 
families including 150 women and 30 persons with 
disability.

 B.3 International Chapters: Our employees across the 
world are keen and enthusiastic participants in local 
community initiatives. In the US, First Book  continues 
to  be  our  anchor  community  program.  During  the 
year,  more  than  400  Wipro  employees  volunteered 
hundreds  of  hours  helping  distribute  more  than 
109,000 books impacting more than 50,000 at-risk 
and  rural  students  throughout  North  America.  Our 
chapters in Philippines, UK, Europe and Asia-Pacific 
have  also  been  very  active  in  engaging  with  local 
communities  on  a  range  of  initiatives  that  include 
disaster  rehabilitation,  biodiversity  conservation, 
health care and education for disadvantaged children. 
The UK chapter started a new volunteering initiative 
for Special Education Needs (SEN) children and with 
Westminster Council to work with public schools on 
STEAM education (STEM+Arts). The Spirit of Wipro 

Run  in  September  2018,  like  every  year  provided  a 
unifying platform for employees across the world to 
contribute and volunteer with community initiatives.

C.  Ecology & Environment

 Managing  economic  development  in  a  manner  that 
does not compromise ecological integrity is one of the 
biggest challenges facing humanity currently. It is no 
surprise therefore that 7 of the 17 U.N. Sustainable 
Development  Goals  are  directly  related  to  ecology 
while the remaining 10 goals intersect with ecology 
and  environment  in  indirect  ways.  Responsible 
corporations  can  make  a  significant  difference  by 
aligning their leadership commitment and resources 
with  these  problems  in  a  purposeful  way.  Wipro’s 
engagement  with  sustainability  issues  goes  back 
several years. Our approach embraces the continuum 
of  (a)  initiatives ‘within  the  organization’  that  focus 
on  reducing the energy, water, waste and biodiversity 
footprint of our business operations and (b) engaging 
through partners on key external programs in urban 
and  community  ecology.  We  present  below  some 
salient highlights of our external CSR work in 2018-19.

 C.1  Urban  Water:  Water  stress  and  scarcity  is  a 
critical  challenge  facing  large  parts  of  the  world, 
exacerbated  by  climate  change  and  loss  of  forest 
cover. In the context of cities, rapid urbanization and 
population  growth  has  put  enormous  pressure  on 
securing clean and affordable water for all sections 
of  the  population.  Our  work  focuses  on  developing 
a  robust  collective  understanding  of  urban  water 
in  the  cities  we  operate  in.  This  approach  blends 
together  the  science  of  hydrogeology  and  citizen 
participation to co-create a solid body of advocacy 
work that then forms the basis for informed decision 
making. For example, in Bengaluru, we have a long 
running  program  of  more  than  5  years  where  we 
have implemented this approach covering 70 sq. km 
of prime suburban areas. We have started a similar 
program  in  Pune  in  collaboration  with  7  different 
stakeholder groups that includes citizens.

 C.2  Urban  Biodiversity:  Our  urban  biodiversity 
program  addresses  the  twin  goals  of  creating 
biodiversity in our urban campuses while also using 
it as a platform for wider education and advocacy. Our 
campuses in Electronic City, Bengaluru and Pune are 
exemplars of biodiversity spots in an urban setting 
with  a  large  variety  of  native  species  of  trees  and 
flora that in turn support a range of insect and bird 
species.

 C.3  Urban  Waste  Management:  Accelerated  by 
growing  urban  density  and  changing  lifestyles, 
mushrooming  urban  solid  waste  is  a  fundamental 
challenge  for  most  cities  in  India.  Internally,  as  a 

90

Wipro Limited 
 
 
 
 
 
 
responsible corporation we take care to ensure that 
more than 90% of our waste is either converted for 
reuse (food waste converted to compost) or recycled 
for  safe  disposal. The  work  of  the  informal  sector 
is  critical  in  India  in  waste  management,  though 
they go largely unrecognized in the margins. One of 
our initiatives has been to provide access to social, 
nutritional and health security to the informal sector 
in solid waste management in the city of Bengaluru. 

 We   re c o g n i ze   t h at   o u r   u r b a n   c e n te rs   c a n 
simultaneously  be  hubs  of  economic  prosperity  as 
well as of inequality and exclusion. Therefore, the role 
of public spaces in our cities that foster inclusion and 
citizen participation becomes crucial. In our eyes, this 
is so important that we decided to include it formally 
as part of our CSR policy in 2018. An early initiative 
we  supported  in  this  regard  was  the  Bengaluru 
International  Center  (BIC),  a  public  institution  in 
Bengaluru  that  is  a  space  for  participative  and 
inclusive endeavors in arts and culture. 

 We also convened the Bengaluru Sustainability Forum 
(BSF)  in  collaboration  with  the  National  Center  for 
Biological Sciences and Biome. BSF is a platform that 
brings together a wide range of different stakeholders 
and  perspectives  to  further  critical  conversations 
on  urban  sustainability  issues.  In  2018-19,  BSF 
convened three national level retreats on the themes 
of  Urban  Water,  Biodiversity  and  Climate  Change. 
We also initiated a small grants program that seeks 
to  catalyze  innovative  experimental  work  in  urban 
sustainability.

D. 

The power of engaged employees

 Our employees are integral to our social programs in 
multiple ways. Providing them a platform to engage 
and  volunteer  develops  a  sense  of  citizenship  and 

larger  responsibility  towards  society.  From  our 
experience,  employees  see  this  as  a  workplace 
differentiator.  The  Wipro  Cares  trust  is  built  on  a 
model of employee contribution that is matched by 
Wipro. Employees also volunteer their time beyond 
work-hours with many of our partners. During 2018-
19,  more  than  12,500  employees  spent  around 
30,000 hours of volunteering time with our partner 
organizations in 20 locations chapters in India, US, 
UK, Philippines, Japan and Australia.

E.  Governance and Management

 Wipro  Foundation,  a  separate  entity  we  created  in 
2017  to  manage  our  CSR  programs,  is  progressing 
well  in  terms  of  its  governance  and  management 
processes. We have a robust governance process led 
by a 5-member board of trustees which reviews plans 
and progress against goals on a quarterly basis. Over 
the last 12 months, there has been an intensive focus 
on improving and streamlining operational practices 
along with people and talent development.

 Our operating model of working through a network 
of good and credible partners in our chosen domains 
has stood us well all these years. We work with more 
than  175  of  the  most  outstanding  partners  across 
India and in the US and UK. They bring competence, 
character  and  values  to  the  difficult  work  they  do 
and thus greatly enhance value to our communities 
in multiple ways.

 We would like to conclude this year’s report on CSR by 
saying that Wipro engages with social issues for the 
simple reason  that it is the right thing to do and that 
it resonates deeply with our own values. Our strategy 
and direction in the future will therefore continue to 
draw  deeply  from  this  essential  principle  and  our 
vision of a more humane, inclusive and sustainable 
society.

with whom we collaborate is available after the table.

7. 

In the column ‘Cumulative expenditure till reporting period’, we have chosen to take 2014-15 as the base year. It is however not to be interpreted 
that this is the first year of our CSR programs. Many of our programs go back more than 10 years and some more than 15 years. Given the 
practical challenges in reporting the cumulative expenditure from inception, we have chosen to start with 2014-15 as the base year. 

8.  All our programs are executed and implemented through our partners. The figures under the last column therefore are entirely through our 

partners.

Corporate Governance 
Report

I.  Wipro’s Philosophy on Corporate Governance

Wipro’s  governance  framework  is  driven  by  the 
objective of enhancing long term stakeholder value 
without  compromising  on  ethical  standards  and 
corporate social responsibilities. Efficient corporate 
governance  requires  a  clear  understanding  of  the 
respective roles of the Board of Directors (“Board”) 
and  of  senior  management  and  their  relationships 
with  others  in  the  corporate  structure.  Sincerity, 
fairness,  good  citizenship  and  commitment  to 
compliance  are  key  characteristics  that  drive 
relationships of the Board and senior management 
with other stakeholders.

Corporate governance philosophy of Wipro flows from 
the “Spirit  of  Wipro”  which  represents  core  values 
by which policies and practices of the organization 
are guided. The values encapsulated in the “Spirit of 
Wipro” are:

Corporate  governance  at  Wipro  is  implemented 
through robust board governance processes, internal 
control  systems  and  processes,  and  strong  audit 
mechanisms.  These  are  articulated  through  the 
Company’s  Code  of  Business  Conduct,  Corporate 
Governance Guidelines and charters of various sub- 
committees of the Board and Company’s Disclosure 
Policy.  Wipro’s  corporate  governance  practices  can 
be described through the following four layers: 

a.  Governance by Shareholders

b.  Governance by Board

c.  Governance by Sub-committees of Board, and

d.  Governance through management process

In this report, we have provided details on how the 
corporate governance principles are put in to practice 
within Wipro.

Be passionate about 
clients’ success

Treat each person 
with respect

Be global
and responsible

Unyielding integrity 
in everything we do

II.  Shareholders

The Companies Act, 2013, Securities and Exchange 
Board  of  India  (Listing  Obligations  and  Disclosure 
Requirements)  Regulations,  2015  as  amended, 
(“Listing Regulations”), and New York Stock Exchange 
(NYSE)  Listed  Company  Manual  prescribes  the 
governance mechanism by shareholders in terms of 
passing  of  ordinary  and  special  resolutions,  voting 
rights, participation in the corporate actions such as 
bonus,  buyback  of  shares,  declaration  of  dividend, 
etc. Your Company follows a robust process to ensure 
that  the  shareholders  of  the  Company  are  well 
informed  of  Board  decisions  both  on  financial  and 
non-financial  parameters.  Adequate  notice  with  a 
detailed explanation is sent to the shareholders well 
in advance to obtain necessary approvals.

III.  Board of Directors

Composition of Board 

As  at  March  31,  2019,  our  Board  had  eight  Non-
Executive  Directors  and  three  Executive  Directors. 
Out of the three Executive Directors, the Executive 
Chairman  and  Managing  Director  and  Executive 
Director  and  Chief  Strategy  Officer  are  Promoter 
Directors.  The  Chief  Executive  Officer  (CEO)  and 
Executive  Director  is  a  professional  CEO  who  is 
responsible  for  the  day  to  day  operations  of  the 
Company. All the eight Non-Executive Directors are 
Independent  Directors,  free  from  any  business  or 
other  relationship  that  could  materially  influence 
their  judgment.  In  the  opinion  of  the  Board,  all 
the  Independent  Directors  satisfy  the  criteria  of 

115

Annual Report 2018-19  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
independence as defined under the Companies Act, 
2013,  the  Listing  Regulations  and  the  NYSE  Listed 
Company manual.

The  Board  is  well  diversified  and  consists  of  two 
Women  Independent  Directors  and  three  Directors 
who are foreign nationals. The profiles of our Directors 
are  available  on  our  website  at  https://www.wipro.
com/leadership.

Board Meetings

We  decide  about  the  Board  meeting  dates  in 
consultation  with  Board  Governance,  Nomination 
and Compensation Committee and all our Directors. 
Once approved by the Board Governance, Nomination 
and Compensation Committee, the schedule of the 
Board  meetings  and  Board  Committee  meetings  is 
communicated in advance to the Directors to enable 
them  to  attend  the  meetings.  Our  Board  meetings 
are  normally  scheduled  over  two  days.  In  addition, 
every quarter, Independent Directors meet amongst 
themselves exclusively and provide a feedback to the 
management team.

The  Board  met  five  times  during  the  financial  year 
2018-19  on  April  24-25,  2018,  June  8,  2018,  July 
19-20,  2018,  October  23-24,  2018  and January  17-
18, 2019. The necessary quorum was present for all 
the  meetings. The  maximum  interval  between  any 
two meetings did not exceed 120 days. In line with 
Paragraph 4 of Schedule B of Securities and Exchange 
Board  of  India  (Prohibition  of  Insider  Trading) 
Regulations, 2015, it is the endeavor of the Company 
that the gap between the clearance of accounts by 
audit committee and board meeting is as narrow as 
possible.

Details  of  attendance  of  Directors  at  the  Board 
Meetings during the year 2018-19 is provided below:

Information Flow to the Board Members

Information  is  provided  to  the  Board  Members  on 
a  continuous  basis  for  their  review,  inputs  and

of our business to the Board for their review, inputs 
and  approval.  Likewise,  our  quarterly  financial 
statements  and  annual  financial  statements 
are  first  presented  to  the  Audit  Committee  and 
subsequently  to  the  Board  for  their  approval.  In 
addition,  specific  cases  of  acquisitions,  important 
managerial  decisions,  material  positive/negative 
developments and statutory matters are presented 
to the respective Committees of the Board and later 
with the recommendation of Committees to the Board 
for their approval.

As a system, in most cases, information to Directors 
is  submitted  along  with  the  agenda  papers  well  in 
advance of the Board meeting. Inputs and feedback 
of Board Members are taken and considered while 
preparation of agenda and documents for the Board 
meeting.

Documents  containing  unpublished  price  sensitive 
information are submitted to the Board and Committee 
Members,  at  a  shorter  notice,  as  per  the  general 
consent taken from the Board, from time to time. 

Post-Meeting Follow-up System

After the Board meeting, we have formal system of 
follow up, review and reporting on actions taken by 
the management on the decisions of the Board and 
sub-committees of the Board.

Appointment of Directors

As  per  the  provisions  of  the  Companies  Act,  2013, 
the Independent Directors shall be appointed for not 
more than two terms of maximum of five years each 
and shall not be liable to retire by rotation.

Wipro Limited 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Your Board has adopted the provisions with respect 
to appointment and tenure of Independent Directors 
consistent  with  the  Companies  Act,  2013  and  the 
Listing Regulations.

In case of re-appointment of Independent Directors, 
the Board takes into consideration the performance 
evaluation  of  the  Independent  Directors  and  their 
engagement level.

At  the  time  of  appointment  of  an  Independent 
Director,  the  Company  issues  a  formal  letter  of 
appointment outlining his/her role, function, duties 
and responsibilities as a Director. The template of the

Terms of Employment Arrangements

Under the Companies Act, 2013, our shareholders 
must  approve  the  salary,  bonus  and  benefits  of 
all  Executive  Directors.  Each  of  our  Executive 
Directors has signed an agreement containing the 
terms  and  conditions  of  employment,  including  a 
monthly  salary,  performance  bonus  and  benefits 
including medical reimbursement and pension fund 
contributions. These agreements have varying terms 
ranging from two to five-year periods, but either we 
or  the  Executive  Director  can  generally  terminate 
the agreement upon six months’ notice to the other 
party.

The  terms  of  our  employment  arrangements  with 
Mr.  Azim  H  Premji,  Mr.  Abidali  Z  Neemuchwala 
and  Mr.  Rishad  A  Premji  provide  for  up  to  a  180 
days’ notice period, up to 21 days of leave per year 
in  addition  to  statutory  holidays,  and  an  annual 
compensation  review.  Additionally,  these  officers 
are required to relocate as we may determine, and 
to  comply  with  confidentiality  provisions.  Service 
contracts with our Executive Directors and Officers 

provide  for  our  standard  retirement  benefits  that 
consist  of  a  pension,  provident  fund  and  gratuity 
which are offered to all our employees, but no other 
benefits upon termination of employment except as 
mentioned below.

Pursuant to the terms of Mr. Abidali Z Neemuchwala’s 
employment,  if  the  agreement  is  terminated  by 
the  Company,  the  Company  is  required  to  pay  
Mr.  Neemuchwala  severance  pay  equivalent  of  12 
months’ base pay.

We  also  indemnify  our  Directors  and  Officers  for 
claims  brought  under any  rule  of  law to  the  fullest 
extent  permitted  by  applicable  law.  Among  other 
things,  we  agree  to  indemnify  our  Directors  and 
Officers for certain expenses, judgments, fines and 
settlement amounts incurred by any such person in 
any action or proceeding, including any action by or in 
the right of the Company, arising out of such person’s 
services as Director or Officer. The Company also has 
a  Director’s  and  Officer’s  liability  insurance  which 
covers all Directors and Officers for liability arising 
out of fiduciary acts.

Succession Planning

We  have  an  effective  mechanism  for  succession 
planning  which  focuses  on  orderly  succession  of 
Directors,  including  Executive  Directors  and  other 
senior  management  team  and  other  executive 
officers.  The  Board  Governance,  Nomination 
and  Compensation  Committee  implements  this 
mechanism in concurrence with the Board.

The Board Governance, Nomination and Compensation 
Committee presents to the Board on a periodic basis, 
succession  plans  for  appointments  to  the  Board 
based on various factors such as current tenure of 

Directors, outcome of performance evaluation, Board 
diversity and business requirements. In addition, the 
Company conducts an annual Talent Review Process 
for senior management and other executive officers 
which  provides  a  leadership-level  talent  inventory 
and capability map that reflects the extent to which 
critical talent needs are fulfilled vis-a-vis business 
drivers.

The Board Governance, Nomination and Compensation 
Committee reviews the outcome of this process and 
presents the succession plan for senior management 
and other executive officers to the Board.

V.  Governance through Management process

Code of Business Conduct

In  the  year  1983,  we  articulated  ‘Wipro  Beliefs’ 
consisting of six statements. At the core of beliefs 
was  integrity,  according  to  which “individual  and 
company  relationship  should  be  governed  by  the 
highest standard of conduct and integrity”.

Over the years, this articulation has evolved in form 
but  remained  constant  in  substance.  Today,  we 
articulate it as Code of Business Conduct.

The  Board  and  all  employees  have  a  responsibility 
to  understand  and  follow  the  Code  of  Business 
Conduct.  All  employees  are  expected  to  perform 
their work with honesty and integrity. Wipro’s Code 
of  Business  Conduct  reflects  general  principles  to 
guide  employees  in  making  ethical  decisions. This 
Code is also applicable to our representatives. This 
Code  outlines  fundamental  ethical  considerations 
as  well  as  specific  considerations  that  need  to  be 
maintained for professional conduct. This Code has 
been  made  available  on  the  Company’s  website  at 
https://www.wipro.com/corporate-governance.

with the Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee.

The  internal  audit  function  is  guided  by  its 
charter,  as  approved  by  the  Audit,  Risk  and 
Compliance Committee. The internal audit function 
formulates an annual risk based audit plan based 
on  consultations  and  inputs  from  the  Board  and 
business leaders and presents it to the Audit, Risk 
and Compliance Committee for approval. Findings of 
various audits carried out during the financial year 
are also periodically presented to the Audit, Risk and 
Compliance Committee. The internal audit function 
adopts a risk based audit approach and covers core 
areas such as compliance audits, financial audits, 
technology  audits,  third  party  risk  audits,  M&A 
audits, etc.

The internal audit team comprises of personnel with 
professional qualifications and certifications in audit 
and is rich in diversity. The audit team hones its skills 
through a robust knowledge management program to 
continuously assimilate the latest trends and skills 
in the domain and to retain the knowledge gained for 
future reference and dissemination.

The function, which was the first Indian internal audit 
unit to get ISO certified in 1998 and win international 
award from Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) in 2002, 
recently  added  one  more  first,  by  being  an  early 
adopter of the new ISO 9001:2015 Version. Testimony 
to the functions’ innovation and excellence are the IIA 
awards won in these categories continuously over the 
last few years.

Audit  of  the  Standalone  Financial  Statements  section 
of  our  report.  We  are  independent  of  the  Company  in 
accordance with the Code of Ethics issued by the Institute 
of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) together with the 
ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the 
standalone  financial  statements  under  the  provisions 
of the Act and the Rules made thereunder, and we have 
fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance 
with these requirements and the ICAI’s Code of Ethics. We 
believe that the audit evidence obtained by us is sufficient 
and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on 
the standalone financial statements. 

Key Audit Matters

Key  audit  matters  are  those  matters  that,  in  our 
professional judgment, were of most significance in our 
audit of the standalone financial statements of the current 
period. These matters were addressed in the context of our 
audit of the standalone financial statements as a whole, 
and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide 
a separate opinion on these matters. We have determined 
the matters described below to be the key audit matters 
to be communicated in our report.

Principal Audit Procedures 

We assessed the Company’s process to identify the impact of adoption 
of the new revenue accounting standard. 

Our  audit  approach  consisted  testing  of  the  design  and  operating 
effectiveness of the internal controls and substantive testing which 
included the following among others:

•  Evaluated the design of internal controls relating to implementation 

of the new revenue accounting standard. 

•  Selected  a  sample  of  continuing  and  new  contracts,  and  tested 
the  operating  effectiveness  of  the  internal  control,  relating 
to  identification  of  the  distinct  performance  obligations  and 
determination of transaction price. We carried out a combination 
of procedures involving inquiry and observation, reperformance and 
inspection of evidence in respect of operation of these controls. 

•  Tested the relevant information technology systems’ access and 
change  management  controls  relating  to  contracts  and  related 
information used in recording and disclosing revenue in accordance 
with the new revenue accounting standard.

Accuracy  of  revenue  recognition 
in  respect  of  fixed  price  contracts 
involves critical estimates.

Estimated effort is a critical estimate 
to determine revenues and liabilities 
for onerous obligations. This estimate 
has  a  high  inherent  uncertainty  as  it 
requires  consideration  of  progress 
of  the  contract,  efforts  incurred  till 
date and efforts required to complete 
the  remaining  contract  performance 
obligations.

Auditor’s Response
 •  Selected a sample of continuing and new contracts and performed 

the following procedures among others:

•  Read, analysed and identified the distinct performance obligations 

in these contracts.

•  Compared these performance obligations with that identified and 

recorded by the Company. 

•  Samples  in  respect  of  revenue  recorded  for  time  and  material 
contracts  were  tested  using  a  combination  of  approved  time 
sheets including customer acceptances, subsequent invoicing and 
historical trend of collections and disputes.

• 

In respect of samples relating to fixed price contracts, progress 
towards satisfaction of performance obligation used to compute 
recorded  revenue  was  verified  with  actual  and  estimated  costs 
from the revenue recognition systems. 

•  Sample of revenues disaggregated by type and service offerings 
were  tested  with  the  performance  obligations  specified  in  the 
underlying contracts. 

•  Performed analytical procedures for reasonableness of revenues 

disclosed by type and service offerings. 

•  We reviewed the collation of information and the logic of the report 
generated from the revenue recognition system used to prepare 
the  disclosure  relating  to  the  periods  over  which  the  remaining 
performance  obligations  will  be  satisfied  subsequent  to  the 
balance sheet date. 
Principal Audit Procedures

Our audit approach was a combination of test of internal controls and 
substantive procedures which included the following, among others:

•  Evaluated the design of internal controls relating to recording of 
efforts incurred and estimation of efforts required to complete the 
performance obligations. 

•  Tested  the  access  and  application  controls  pertaining  to  time 
recording  and  allocation  systems  which  prevents  unauthorised 
changes to recording of efforts incurred.

•  Selected  a  sample  of  contracts  and  through  inspection  of 
evidence of performance of these controls, tested the operating 
effectiveness of the internal controls relating to efforts incurred 
and estimated. 

•  Selected  a  sample  of  contracts  and  performed  a  retrospective 
review of completed efforts and activities with the planned efforts 
and activities to identify significant variations and verifiedwhether 
those variations have been considered in estimating the remaining 
efforts to complete the contract. 

•  Reviewed a sample of contracts with unbilled revenues to identify 
possible  delays  in  achieving  milestones,  which  require  change 
in  estimated  efforts  to  complete  the  remaining  performance 
obligations. 

•  Performed  analytical  procedures  and  test  of  details  for 

reasonableness of incurred and estimated efforts.

Evaluation of uncertain tax positions. 

Auditor’s Response
Principal Audit Procedures

The Company has material uncertain 
tax positions including matters under 
dispute  which  involves  significant 
judgment  to  determine  the  possible 
outcome of these disputes.

Refer  Notes  3(xvi)  and  33to  the 
standalone Financial Statements.

Obtained details of completed tax assessments and demands during 
the year ended March 31, 2019 from management. We involved our 
internal  tax  experts  to  challenge  the  management’s  underlying 
assumptions in estimating the tax provision and the possible outcome 
of  the  disputes.  Our  internal  tax  experts  also  considered  legal 
precedence and other rulings in evaluating management’s position on 
these uncertain tax positions. Additionally, we considered the effect 
of new information in respect of uncertain tax positions as at April 1, 
2018 to evaluate whether any change was required to management’s 
position on these uncertainties.

Information  Other  than  the  Financial  Statements  and 
Auditor’s Report Thereon

• 

• 

• 

• 

 The  Company’s  Board  of  Directors  are  responsible 
for  the  other  information.  The  other  information 
comprises  the  Baord’s  Report  and  the  Corporate 
Governance  Report,  but  does  not  include  the 
consolidated  financial  statements,  standalone 
financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon.

 Our opinion on the standalone financial statements 
does not cover the other information and we do not 
express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

 In  connection  with  our  audit  of  the  standalone 
financial statements, our responsibility is to read the 
other informationand, in doing so, consider whether 
the  other  information  is  materially  inconsistent 
with  the  standalone  financial  statements  or  our 
knowledge obtained during the course of our audit 
or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

 If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude 
that there is a material misstatement of this other 
information, we are required to report that fact. We 
have nothing to report in this regard.

Management’s  Responsibility  for  the  Standalone 
Financial Statements 

The Company’s Board of Directors are responsible for the 
matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to 
the preparation of these standalone financial statements 
that  give  a  true  and  fair  view  of  the  financial  position, 
financial  performance  including  other  comprehensive 
income, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company 
in  accordance  with  the  Ind  AS  and  other  accounting 
principles generally accepted in India. This responsibility 
also  includes  maintenance  of  adequate  accounting 
records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for 
safeguarding the assets of the Company and for preventing 
and  detecting  frauds  and  other  irregularities;  selection 
and  application  of  appropriate  accounting  policies; 
making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and 
prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of 

adequate internal financial controls, that were operating 
effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness 
of  the  accounting  records,  relevant  to  the  preparation 
and presentation of the standalone financial statement 
that give a true and fair view and are free from material 
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

In  preparing  the  standalone  financial  statements, 
management is responsible for assessing the Company’s 
ability  to  continue  as  a  going  concern,  disclosing,  as 
applicable, matters related to going concern and using the 
going  concern  basis  of  accounting  unless  management 
either  intends  to  liquidate  the  Company  or  to  cease 
operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. 

Those  Board  of  Directors  are  also  responsible  for 
overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process. 

Auditor’s Responsibility for the Audit of the Standalone 
Financial Statements

Our  objectives  are  to  obtain  reasonable  assurance 
about  whether  the  standalone  financial  statements  as 
a  whole  are  free  from  material  misstatement,  whether 
due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that 
includes  our  opinion.  Reasonable  assurance  is  a  high 
level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit 
conducted  in  accordance  with  SAs  will  always  detect  a 
material  misstatement  when  it  exists.  Misstatements 
can arise from fraud or error and are considered material 
if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably 
be  expected  to  influence  the  economic  decisions  of 
users  taken  on  the  basis  of  these  standalone  financial 
statements. 

As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise 
professional  judgment  and  maintain  professional 
skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

• 

 Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement 
of  the  standalone  financial  statements,  whether 
due  to  fraud  or  error,  design  and  perform  audit 
procedures  responsive  to  those  risks,  and  obtain 
audit  evidence  that  is  sufficient  and  appropriate 
to  provide  a  basis  for  our  opinion.  The  risk  of  not 

139

Standalone Financial Statements under Ind ASAnnual Report 2018-19 
• 

• 

• 

• 

detecting  a  material  misstatement  resulting  from 
fraud  is  higher  than  for  one  resulting  from  error, 
as  fraud  may  involve  collusion,  forgery,  intentional 
omissions,  misrepresentations,  or  the  override  of 
internal control.

 Obtain  an  understanding  of  internal  financial 
control  relevant  to  the  audit  in  order  to  design 
audit  procedures  that  are  appropriate  in  the 
circumstances.  Under  section  143(3)(i)  of  the  Act, 
we  are  also  responsible  for  expressing  our  opinion 
on  whether  the  Company  has  adequate  internal 
financial controls system in place and the operating 
effectiveness of such controls.

 Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies 
used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates 
and related disclosures made by the management.

 Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s 
use  of  the  going  concern  basis  of  accounting  and, 
based  on  the  audit  evidence  obtained,  whether  a 
material  uncertainty  exists  related  to  events  or 
conditions  that  may  cast  significant  doubt  on  the 
Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If 
we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we 
are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report 
to the related disclosures in the standalone financial 
statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to 
modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the 
audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s 
report.  However,  future  events  or  conditions  may 
cause the Company to cease to continue as a going 
concern.

 Evaluate  the  overall  presentation,  structure  and 
content  of  the  standalone  financial  statements, 
including the disclosures, and whether the standalone 
financial  statements  represent  the  underlying 
transactions and events in a manner that achieves 
fair presentation.

Materiality  is  the  magnitude  of  misstatements  in  the 
standalone  financial  statements  that,  individually  or  in 
aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions 
of  a  reasonably  knowledgeable  user  of  the  standalone 
financial  statements  may  be  influenced.  We  consider 
quantitative  materiality  and  qualitative  factors  in  (i) 
planning  the  scope  of  our  audit  work  and  in  evaluating 
the results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of 
any identified misstatements in the standalone financial 
statements.

We  communicate  with  those  charged  with  governance 
regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and 

timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including 
any  significant  deficiencies  in  internal  control  that  we 
identify during our audit. 

We  also  provide  those  charged  with  governance  with 
a  statement  that  we  have  complied  with  relevant 
ethical  requirements  regarding  independence,  and  to 
communicate  with  them  all  relationships  and  other 
matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our 
independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with 
governance,  we  determine  those  matters  that  were  of 
most significance in the audit of the standalone financial 
statements of the current period and are therefore the key 
audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s 
report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure 
about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, 
we determine that a matter should not be communicated 
in our report because the adverse consequences of doing 
so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public 
interest benefits of such communication.

Annexure A to the Independent Auditor’s Report

(Referred to in paragraph (f) under ‘Report on Other Legal 
and  Regulatory  Requirements’  section  of  our  report  of 
even date)

Report on the Internal Financial Controls Over Financial 
Reporting under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 
of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”)

We  have  audited  the  internal  financial  controls  over 
financial reporting of Wipro Limited (“the Company”) as 
of  March  31,  2019  in  conjunction  with  our  audit  of  the 
standalone financial statements of the Company for the 
year ended on that date. 

Management’s  Responsibility  for  Internal  Financial 
Controls

The Board of Directors of the Company are responsible for 
establishing and maintaining internal financial controls 
based  on  the  internal  control  over  financial  reporting 
criteria  established  by  the  Company  considering  the 
essential  components  of  internal  control  stated  in  the 
Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over 
Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered 

Accountants of India. These responsibilities include the 
design,  implementation  and  maintenance  of  adequate 
internal financial controls that were operating effectively 
for  ensuring  the  orderly  and  efficient  conduct  of  its 
business, including adherence to company’s policies, the 
safeguarding of its assets, the prevention and detection of 
frauds and errors, the accuracy and completeness of the 
accounting records, and the timely preparation of reliable 
financial information, as required under the Act.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s 
internal financial controls over financial reporting of the 
Company based on our audit. We conducted our audit in 
accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal 
Financial Controls Over Financial Reporting (the “Guidance 
Note”) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants 
of India and the Standards on Auditing prescribed under 
Section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013, to the extent 
applicable to an audit of internal financial controls. Those 
Standards and the Guidance Note require that we comply 
with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit 

141

Standalone Financial Statements under Ind ASAnnual Report 2018-19 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether adequate 
internal  financial  controls  over  financial  reporting  was 
established and maintained and if such controls operated 
effectively in all material respects.

Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit 
evidence  about  the  adequacy  of  the  internal  financial 
controls  system  over  financial  reporting  and  their 
operating  effectiveness.  Our  audit  of  internal  financial 
controls  over  financial  reporting  included  obtaining 
an  understanding  of  internal  financial  controls  over 
financial  reporting,  assessing  the  risk  that  a  material 
weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design 
and operating effectiveness of internal control based on 
the  assessed  risk. The  procedures  selected  depend  on 
the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the 
risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, 
whether due to fraud or error.

We  believe  that  the  audit  evidence  we  have  obtained, 
is  sufficient  and  appropriate  to  provide  a  basis  for  our 
audit opinion on the Company’s internal financial controls 
system over financial reporting.

Meaning  of  Internal  Financial  Controls  Over  Financial 
Reporting

A  company’s  internal  financial  control  over  financial 
reporting  is  a  process  designed  to  provide  reasonable 
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting 
and the preparation of financial statements for external 
purposes  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted 
accounting  principles.  A  company’s  internal  financial 
control  over  financial  reporting  includes  those  policies 
and  procedures  that  (1)  pertain  to  the  maintenance  of 
records  that,  in  reasonable  detail,  accurately  and  fairly 
reflect  the  transactions  and  dispositions  of  the  assets 
of  the  company;  (2)  provide  reasonable  assurance 
that  transactions  are  recorded  as  necessary  to  permit 
preparation  of  financial  statements  in  accordance  with 
generally  accepted  accounting  principles,  and  that 
receipts and expenditures of the company are being made 
only  in  accordance  with  authorisations  of  management 
and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable 
assurance  regarding  prevention  or  timely  detection 

of  unauthorised  acquisition,  use,  or  disposition  of  the 
company’s assets that could have a material effect on the 
financial statements.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls Over 
Financial Reporting

Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial 
controls over financial reporting, including the possibility 
of collusion or improper management override of controls, 
material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur 
and not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation 
of the internal financial controls over financial reporting 
to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal 
financial  control  over  financial  reporting  may  become 
inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the 
degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may 
deteriorate.

Opinion

In our opinion, to the best of our information and according 
to the explanations given to us, the Company has, in all 
material respects, an adequate internal financial controls 
system over financial reporting and such internal financial 
controls over financial reporting were operating effectively 
as at March 31, 2019, based on, the internal control over 
financial  reporting  criteria  established  by  the  Company 
considering the essential components of internal control 
stated in the Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial 
Controls Over Financial Reporting issued by the Institute 
of Chartered Accountants of India.

Standalone Financial Statements under Ind ASWipro Limited 
 
Notes to the Standalone financial statements
(` in millions, except share and per share data, unless otherwise stated)

1. 

The Company overview 

 Wipro Limited (“Wipro” or the “Company”), is a global 
information technology (IT), consulting and business 
process services (BPS) company.

Wipro is a public limited company incorporated and 
domiciled  in  India.  The  address  of  its  registered 
office  is  Wipro  Limited,  Doddakannelli,  Sarjapur 
Road, Bengaluru – 560 035, Karnataka, India. Wipro

Exchange)  and  National  Stock  Exchange  of  India 
Ltd.  The  Company’s  American  Depository  Shares 
representing equity shares are also listed on the New 
York Stock Exchange. 

These financial statements were authorised for issue 
by the Board of Directors on June 6, 2019. 

2.  Basis of preparation of financial statements 

(i)   Statement of compliance and basis of preparation 

The  Standalone  financial  statements  have  been 
prepared  in  accordance  with  Indian  Accounting 
Standards (“Ind AS”), the provisions of the Companies 
Act, 2013 (“the Companies Act”), as applicable and 
guidelines  issued  by  the  Securities  and  Exchange 
Board  of  India  (“SEBI”). The  Ind  AS  are  prescribed 
under Section 133 of the Act read with Rule 3 of the 
Companies  (Indian  Accounting  Standards)  Rules, 
2015 and Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) 
Amendment Rules, 2016.

Accounting policies have been applied consistently to 
all periods presented in these financial statements, 
except for new accounting standards adopted by the 
Company.

The  financial  statements  correspond  to  the 
classification  provisions  contained  in  Ind  AS  1, 
“Presentation of Financial Statements”. For clarity, 
various  items  are  aggregated  in  the  statement  of 
profit and loss and balance sheet. These items are 
disaggregated separately in the notes to the financial 
statements, where applicable. 

All amounts included in the financial statements are 
reported in millions of Indian rupees (` in millions) 
except share and per share data, unless otherwise 
stated. Due to rounding off, the numbers presented 
throughout the document may not add up precisely to 
the totals and percentages may not precisely reflect 
the absolute figures. Previous year figures have been 
regrouped/re-arranged, wherever necessary.

(ii)   Basis of measurement 

These financial statements have been prepared on a 
historical cost convention and on an accrual basis, 

except for the following material items which have 
been measured at fair value as required by relevant 
Ind AS:

a)  Derivative financial instruments; 

b) 

c) 

 Financial  instruments  classified  as  fair  value 
through  other  comprehensive  income  or  fair 
value through profit or loss; and

 The defined benefit asset/(liability) is recognised 
as the present value of defined benefit obligation 
less fair value of plan assets.

(iii)   Use of estimates and judgment 

The  preparation  of  the  financial  statements  in 
conformity  with  Ind  AS  requires  management  to 
make  judgments,  estimates  and  assumptions  that 
affect  the  application  of  accounting  policies  and 
the  reported  amounts  of  assets,  liabilities,  income 
and expenses. Actual results may differ from those 
estimates. 

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed 
on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates 
are recognised in the period in which the estimates 
are  revised  and  in  any  future  periods  affected.  In 
particular,  information  about  significant  areas  of 
estimation,  uncertainty  and  critical  judgments  in 
applying  accounting  policies  that  have  the  most 
significant effect on the amounts recognised in the 
financial  statements  are  included  in  the  following 
notes: 

a)  Revenue  recognition:The  Company  applies 
judgement to determine whether each product 
or service promised to a customer is capable of 
being  distinct,  and  are  distinct  in  the  context 
of  the  contract,  if  not,  the  promised  product 
or  services  are  combined  and  accounted  as  a 
single  performance  obligation.  The  Company 
allocates  the  arrangement  consideration  to 
separately identifiable performance obligation 
deliverables based on their relative stand-alone 
selling  price.  In  cases  where  the  Company  is 
unable  to  determine  the  stand-alone  selling 
price,  the  Company  uses  expected  cost-plus 
margin  approach  in  estimating  the  stand-
alone  selling  price.  The  Company  uses  the 
percentage  of  completion  method  using  the 
input  (cost  expended)  method  to  measure 
progress  towards  completion  in  respect  of 
fixed price contracts. Percentage of completion 
method  accounting  relies  on  estimates  of 
total  expected  contract  revenue  and  costs. 
This  method  is  followed  when  reasonably 

151

Standalone Financial Statements under Ind ASAnnual Report 2018-19 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
dependable estimates of the revenues and costs 
applicable to various elements of the contract 
can be made. Key factors that are reviewed in 
estimating the future costs to complete include 
estimates of future labor costs and productivity 
efficiencies.  Because  the  financial  reporting 
of  these  contracts  depends  on  estimates 
that  are  assessed  continually  during  the 
term  of  these  contracts,  revenue  recognised, 
profit  and  timing  of  revenue  for  remaining 
performance obligations are subject to revisions 
as the contract progresses to completion. When 
estimates indicate that a loss will be incurred, 
the  loss  is  provided  for  in  the  period  in  which 
the loss becomes probable. Volume discounts 
are  recorded  as  a  reduction  of  revenue.  When 
the amount of discount varies with the levels of 
revenue, volume discount is recorded based on 
estimate of future revenue from the customer.

 Impairment testing: Investments in subsidiaries, 
goodwill  and  intangible  assets  are  tested  for 
impairment at least annually and when events 
occur  or  changes  in  circumstances  indicate 
that the recoverable amount of the asset or the 
cash generating unit to which these pertain is 
less  than  its  carrying  value.  The  recoverable 
amount of the asset or the cash generating units 
is higher of value in use and fair value less cost 
of disposal. The calculation of value in use of a 
cash generating unit involves use of significant 
estimates  and  assumptions  which  includes 
turnover,  growth  rates  and  net  margins  used 
to  calculate  projected  future  cash  flows,  risk-
adjusted  discount  rate,  future  economic  and 
market conditions. 

 Income  taxes:  The  major  tax  jurisdictions  for 
the  Company  are  India  and  the  United  States 
of America. Significant judgments are involved 
in  determining  the  provision  for  income  taxes 
including judgment on whether tax positions are 
probable of being sustained in tax assessments. 
A tax assessment can involve complex issues, 
which can only be resolved over extended time 
periods. 

 Deferred  taxes:  Deferred  tax  is  recorded  on 
temporary  differences  between  the  tax  bases 
of  assets  and  liabilities  and  their  carrying 
amounts, at the rates that have been enacted 
or substantively enacted at the reporting date. 
The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets 
is  dependent  upon  the  generation  of  future 
taxable  profits  during  the  periods  in  which 
those temporary differences and tax loss carry-
forwards  become  deductible.  The  Company 
considers the expected reversal of deferred tax 
liabilities and projected future taxable income 
in  making  this  assessment.  The  amount  of

f) 

g) 

the deferred tax assets considered realisable, 
however,  could  be  reduced  in  the  near  term  if 
estimates of future taxable income during the 
carry-forward period are reduced. 

 Defined  benefit  plans  and  compensated 
absences: The cost of the defined benefit plans, 
compensated absences and the present value 
of  the  defined  benefit  obligations  are  based 
on actuarial valuation using the projected unit 
credit  method.  An  actuarial  valuation  involves 
making  various  assumptions  that  may  differ 
from actual developments in the future. These 
include the determination of the discount rate, 
future salary increases and mortality rates. Due 
to  the  complexities  involved  in  the  valuation 
and  its  long-term  nature,  a  defined  benefit 
obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these 
assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at 
each reporting date. 

 Expected  credit  losses  on  financial  assets: 
The  impairment  provisions  of  financial  assets 
are based on assumptions about risk of default 
and expected timing of collection. The Company 
uses  judgment  in  making  these  assumptions 
and  selecting  the  inputs  to  the  impairment 
calculation,  based  on  the  Company’s  history 
of  collections,  customer’s  creditworthiness, 
existing  market  conditions  as  well  as  forward 
looking estimates at the end of each reporting 
period. 

 Measurement of fair value of non-marketable 
equity  investments:  These  instruments  are 
initially  recorded  at  cost  and  subsequently 
measured at fair value. Fair value of investments 
is  determined  using  the  market  and  income 
approaches. The market approach includes the 
use of financial metrics and ratios of comparable 
companies,  such  as  revenue,  earnings, 
comparable  performance  multiples,  recent 
financial rounds and the level of marketability 
of the investments. The selection of comparable 
companies  requires  management  judgment 
and is based on a number of factors, including 
comparable  company  sizes,  growth  rates  and 
development  stages.  The  income  approach 
includes the use of discounted cash flow model, 
which requires significant estimates regarding 
the  investees’  revenue,  costs,  and  discount 
rates  based  on  the  risk  profile  of  comparable 
companies.  Estimates  of  revenue  and  costs 
are  developed  using  available  historical  and 
forecast data.

h) 

 Useful lives of property, plant and equipment: 
The  Company  depreciates  property,  plant 
and  equipment  on  a  straight-line  basis  over 
estimated useful lives of the assets. The charge 
in  respect  of  periodic  depreciation  is  derived 

Standalone Financial Statements under Ind ASWipro Limited 
 
 
 
 
 
 
based  on  an  estimate  of  an  asset’s  expected 
useful  life  and  the  expected  residual  value 
at  the  end  of  its  life.  The  lives  are  based  on 
historical  experience  with  similar  assets  as 
well as anticipation of future events, which may 
impact their life, such as changes in technology. 
The  estimated  useful  life  is  reviewed  at  least 
annually. 

 Useful lives of intangible assets:The Company 
amortises  intangible  assets  on  a  straight-line 
basis over estimated useful lives of the assets. 
The useful life is estimated based on a number 
of factors including the effects of obsolescence, 
demand,  competition  and  other  economic 
factors such as the stability of the industry and 
known technological advances and the level of 
maintenance  expenditures  required  to  obtain 
the expected future cash flows from the assets. 
The  estimated  useful  life  is  reviewed  at  least 
annually.

 Other estimates: The share-based compensation 
expense is determined based on the Company’s 
estimate  of  equity  instruments  that  will 
eventually  vest.  Fair  valuation  of  derivative 
hedging  instruments  designated  as  cash  flow 
hedges  involves  significant  estimates  relating 
to the occurrence of forecast transaction.

3.  Significant accounting policies 

(i)   Functional and presentation currency 

These financial statements are presented in Indian 
rupees,  which  is  the  functional  currency  of  the 
Company. 

(ii)   Foreign currency transactions and translation 

Transactions  in  foreign  currency  are  translated 
into  the  functional  currency  using  the  exchange 
rates  prevailing  at  the  date  of  the  transaction. 
Foreign  exchange  gains  and  losses  resulting  from 
the  settlement  of  such  transactions  and  from 
translation  at  the  exchange  rates  prevailing  at  the 
reporting  date  of  monetary  assets  and  liabilities 
denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in 
the statement of profit and loss and reported within 
foreign exchange gains/(losses), net, within results 
of  operating  activities  except  when  deferred  in 
other comprehensive income as qualifying cash flow 
hedges and qualifying net investment hedges. Gains/
(losses),  net,  relating  to  translation  or  settlement 
of borrowings denominated in foreign currency are 
reported  within  finance  expense.  Non-monetary 
assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency 
and measured at historical cost are translated at the 
exchange rate prevalent at the date of transaction. 
Translation  differences  on  non-monetary  financial 
assets measured at fair value at the reporting date, 
such as equities classified as financial instruments 

measured at fair value through other comprehensive 
income are included in other comprehensive income, 
net of taxes. 

(iii)   Financial instruments 

a)  Non-derivative financial instruments:

Non-derivative financial instruments consist of: 

• 

• 

• 

 financial  assets,  which  include  cash  and 
cash  equivalents,  trade  receivables,  unbilled 
receivables, finance lease receivables, employee 
and  other  advances,  investments  in  equity 
and  debt  securities  and  eligible  current  and 
non-current  assets;  Financial  assets  are 
derecognised  when  substantial  risks  and 
rewards of ownership of the financial asset have 
been  transferred.  In  cases  where  substantial 
risks and rewards of ownership of the financial 
assets  are  neither  transferred  nor  retained, 
financial  assets  are  derecognised  only  when 
the Company has not retained control over the 
financial asset. 

 financial liabilities, which include long and short-
term  loans  and  borrowings,  bank  overdrafts, 
trade payables, eligible current and non-current 
liabilities. 

 Non-  derivative  financial  instruments  are 
recognised initially at fair value. 

Subsequent  to  initial  recognition,  non-derivative 
financial  instruments  are  measured  as  described 
below:

A.   Cash and cash equivalents 

 The  Company’s  cash  and  cash  equivalents 
consist  of  cash  on  hand  and  in  banks  and 
demand  deposits  with  banks,  which  can  be 
withdrawn at any time, without prior notice or 
penalty on the principal. 

 For  the  purposes  of  the  cash  flow  statement, 
cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, 
in banks and demand deposits with banks, net of 
outstanding bank overdrafts that are repayable 
on  demand  and  are  considered  part  of  the 
Company’s  cash  management  system.  In  the 
balance  sheet,  bank  overdrafts  are  presented 
under borrowings within current liabilities.

B.  

Investments

Financial  instruments  measured  at  amortised 
cost:

 Debt instruments that meet the following criteria 
are  measured  at  amortised  cost  (except  for 
debt  instruments  that  are  designated  at  fair 
value  through  Profit  or  Loss  (FVTPL)  on  initial 
recognition):

• 

 the asset is held within a business model 

153

Standalone Financial Statements under Ind ASAnnual Report 2018-19 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
• 

whose  objective  is  to  hold  assets  in 
order to collect contractual cash flows; 
and 

 the contractual terms of the instrument 
give rise on specified dates to cash flows 
that  are  solely  payment  of  principal 
and  interest  on  the  principal  amount 
outstanding.

Financial  instruments  measured  at  fair  value 
through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI):

 Debt  instruments  that  meet  the  following 
criteria  are  measured  at  fair  value  through 
other  comprehensive  income  (FVTOCI)  (except 
for debt instruments that are designated at fair 
value  through  Profit  or  Loss  (FVTPL)  on  initial 
recognition)

• 

• 

 the  asset  is  held  within  a  business  model 
whose objective is achieved both by collecting 
contractual  cash  flows  and  selling  the 
financial asset; and 

 the contractual terms of the instrument give 
rise on specified dates to cash flows that are 
solely  payment  of  principal  and  interest  on 
the principal amount outstanding.

 Interest  income  is  recognised  in  statement  of 
profit  and  loss  for  FVTOCI  debt  instruments. 
Other changes in fair value of FVTOCI financial 
assets are recognised in other comprehensive 
income. When the investment is disposed of, the 
cumulative gain or loss previously accumulated 
in reserves is transferred to statement of profit 
and loss.

 Financial  instruments  measured  at  fair  value 
through profit or loss (FVTPL):

 Instruments  that  do  not  meet  the  amortised 
cost or FVTOCI criteria are measured at FVTPL. 
Financial assets at FVTPL are measured at fair 
value at the end of each reporting period, with 
any gains or losses arising on re-measurement 
recognised  in  statement  of  profit  and  loss. 
The  gain  or  loss  on  disposal  is  recognised  in 
statement of profit and loss. 

 Interest  income  is  recognised  in  statement  of 
profit  and  loss  for  FVTPL  debt  instruments. 
Dividend  on  financial  assets  at  FVTPL  is 
recognised when the Company’s right to receive 
dividend is established.

 Investments in equity instruments designated to 
be classified as FVTOCI:

 The Company carries certain equity instruments 
which  are  not  held  for  trading.  The  Company 
has  elected  the  FVTOCI  irrevocable  option  for 
these  instruments.  Movements  in  fair  value 

of  these  investments  are  recognised  in  other 
comprehensive income and the gain or loss is not 
reclassified to statement of profit and loss on 
disposal of these investments. Dividends from 
these investments are recognised in statement 
of profit and loss when the Company’s right to 
receive dividends is established.

Investments in subsidiaries:

Investment in subsidiaries are measured at cost 
less impairment.

C.   Other financial assets: 

 Other  financial  assets  are  non-derivative 
financial  assets  with  fixed  or  determinable 
payments  that  are  not  quoted  in  an  active 
market. They are presented as current assets, 
except for those maturing later than 12 months 
after  the  reporting  date  which  are  presented 
as  non-current  assets.  These  are  initially 
recognised  at  fair  value  and  subsequently 
measured at amortised cost using the effective 
interest  method,  less  any  impairment  losses. 
These  comprise  trade  receivables,  unbilled 
receivables and other assets. 

D.   Trade and other payables 

 Trade and other payables are initially recognised 
at  fair  value,  and  subsequently  carried  at 
amortised  cost  using  the  effective  interest 
method.  For  these  financial  instruments,  the 
carrying amounts approximate fair value due to 
the short-term maturity of these instruments. 

b)  Derivative financial instruments 

The  Company  is  exposed  to  foreign  currency 
fluctuations  on  foreign  currency  assets,  liabilities, 
net investment in foreign operations and forecasted 
cash flows denominated in foreign currency. 

The  Company  limits  the  effect  of  foreign  exchange 
rate  fluctuations  by  following  established  risk 
management policies including the use of derivatives. 
The  Company  enters  into  derivative  financial 
instruments  where  the  counterparty  is  primarily  a 
bank. 

Derivatives  are  recognised  and  measured  at  fair 
value. Attributable transaction costs are recognised 
in statement of profit and loss as cost. 

Subsequent to initial recognition, derivative financial 
instruments are measured as described below: 

A.   Cash flow hedges 

 Changes  in  the  fair  value  of  the  derivative 
hedging instrument designated as a cash flow 
hedge  are  recognised  in  other  comprehensive 
income and held in cash flow hedging reserve, 
net  of  taxes,  a  component  of  equity,  to  the

extent that the hedge is effective. To the extent 
that  the  hedge  is  ineffective,  changes  in  fair 
value are recognised in the statement of profit 
and loss and reported within foreign exchange 
gains/(losses), net, within results from operating 
activities.  If  the  hedging  instrument  no  longer 
meets  the  criteria  for  hedge  accounting,  then 
hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. 
If  the  hedging  instrument  expires  or  is  sold, 
terminated  or  exercised,  the  cumulative  gain 
or  loss  on  the  hedging  instrument  recognised 
in  cash  flow  hedging  reserve  till  the  period 
the  hedge  was  effective  remains  in  cash  flow 
hedging reserve until the forecasted transaction 
occurs. The cumulative gain or loss previously 
recognised in the cash flow hedging reserve is 
transferred to the statement of profit and loss 
upon the occurrence of the related forecasted 
transaction.  If  the  forecasted  transaction  is 
no  longer  expected  to  occur,  such  cumulative 
balance  is  immediately  recognised  in  the 
statement of profit and loss. 

B.   Others 

 Changes  in  fair  value  of  foreign  currency 
derivative instruments not designated as cash 
flow  hedges  are  recognised  in  the  statement 
of  profit  and  loss  and  reported  within  foreign 
exchange gains/(losses), net, within results from 
operating activities. 

 Changes  in  fair  value  and  gains/(losses),  net, 
on  settlement  of  foreign  currency  derivative 
instruments relating to borrowings, which have 
not been designated as hedges are recorded in 
finance expense.

c)  Derecognition of financial instruments 

The Company derecognises a financial asset when the 
contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial 
asset expires or it transfers the financial asset and 
the  transfer  qualifies  for  derecognition  under  Ind 
AS 109. If the Company retains substantially all the 
risks and rewards of a transferred financial asset, the 
Company continues to recognise the financial asset 
and  also  recognises  a  borrowing  for  the  proceeds 
received. A financial liability (or a part of a financial 
liability) is derecognised from the Company’s balance 
sheet when the obligation specified in the contract 
is discharged or cancelled or expires.

(iv)   Equity

a)  Share capital and securities premium reserve 

The  authorised  share  capital  of  the  Company

optionally convertible cumulative preference shares 
of  `  100  each.  Par  value  of  the  equity  shares  is 

recorded as share capital and the amount received 
in  excess  of  par  value  is  classified  as  securities 
premium. 

Every  holder  of  the  equity  shares,  as  reflected  in 
the  records  of  the  Company  as  of  the  date  of  the 
shareholder meeting shall have one vote in respect 
of each share held for all matters submitted to vote

f) 

Share options outstanding account

The share options oustanding account is used to record 
the  value  of  equity-settled  share-based  payment 
transactions with employees. The amounts recorded 
in share options oustanding account are transferred 
to securities premium upon exercise of stock options 
and restricted stock unit options by employees. 

g)  Special Economic Zone Re-Investment reserve

The Special Economic Zone Re-Investment Reserve 
has been created out of profit of eligible SEZ units as 
per provisions of section 10AA (1)(ii) of the Income–
tax Act, 1961 for acquiring new plant and machinery. 
The reserve has also been utilised for other business 
purposes of SEZ units as per provisions of section 
10AA  of  the  Income-tax  Act,  1961  till  the  time  the 
said reserve is utilised completely for the purposes 
of purchasing new plant and machinery. This reserve 
is not freely available for distribution. 

h)  Other reserves

Changes  in  the  fair  value  of  financial  instruments 
measured at fair value through other comprehensive 
income  and  actuarial  gains  and  losses  on  defined 
benefit plans are recognised in other comprehensive 
income (net of taxes) and presented within equity as 
other reserves.

i) 

Cash flow hedging reserve 

Changes in fair value of derivative hedging instruments 
designated  and  effective  as  a  cash  flow  hedge  are 
recognised  in  other  comprehensive  income  (net  of 

155

Standalone Financial Statements under Ind ASAnnual Report 2018-19 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
taxes)  and  presented  within  equity  as  cash  flow 
hedging reserve. 

j) 

Foreign currency translation reserve (FCTR)

The exchange differences arising from the translation 
of  financial  statements  of  foreign  operations  with 
functional  currency  other  than  Indian  rupees  is 
recognised  in  other  comprehensive  income,  net  of 
taxes and is presented within equity in the FCTR. 

k)  Dividend 

A  final  dividend,  including  tax  thereon,  on  equity 
shares  is  recorded  as  a  liability  on  the  date  of 
approval  by  the  shareholders.  An  interim  dividend, 
including tax thereon, is recorded as a liability on the 
date of declaration by the Board of directors. 

When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment 
have different useful lives, they are accounted for as 
separate items (major components) of property, plant 
and equipment. Subsequent expenditure relating to 
property,  plant  and  equipment  is  capitalised  only 
when  it  is  probable  that  future  economic  benefits 
associated with these will flow to the Company and 
the cost of the item can be measured reliably. 

Deposits and advances paid towards the acquisition 
of property, plant and equipment outstanding as at 
each reporting date and the cost of property, plant 
and equipment not available for use before such date 
are disclosed under capital work- in-progress. 

(vi)   Business  combination,  Goodwill  and  Intangible 

assets 

l) 

Buyback of equity shares

a)  Business combination 

The buyback of equity shares and related transaction 
costs are recorded as a reduction of free reserves. 
Further,  capital  redemption  reserves  is  created  as 
an apportionment from retained earnings.

m)  Bonus Issue

For the purpose of bonus issue, the amount is transferred 
from capital redemption reserves, securities premium 
reserve and retained earnings to the share capital. 

(v)   Property, plant and equipment 

a)  Recognition and measurement 

Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost 
less  accumulated  depreciation  and  impairment 
losses,  if  any.  Cost  includes  expenditures  directly 
attributable to the acquisition of the asset. General 
and specific borrowing costs directly attributable to 
the construction of a qualifying asset are capitalised 
as part of the cost. 

b)  Depreciation 

The  Company  depreciates  property,  plant  and 
equipment over the estimated useful life on a straight-
line basis from the date the assets are available for use. 
Assets  acquired  under  finance  lease  and  leasehold 
improvements  are  amortised  over  the  shorter  of 
estimated useful life of the asset or the related lease 
term. Term licenses are amortised over their respective 
contract term. Freehold land is not depreciated. The 
estimated useful life of assets is reviewed and where 
appropriate  are  adjusted,  annually. The  estimated 
useful lives of assets are as follows: 

Category
Buildings 
Plant and machinery 
Computer equipment and 
software 
Furniture, fixtures and equipment
Vehicles 

Useful life
28 to 40 years
5 to 21 years
2 to 7 years

3 to 10 years
4 to 5 years

156

Business  combinations  are  accounted  for  using 
the  purchase  (acquisition)  method. The  cost  of  an 
acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets 
transferred, liabilities incurred or assumed and equity 
instruments issued at the date of exchange by the 
Company. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities 
and  contingent  liabilities  assumed  in  a  business 
combination  are  measured  initially  at  fair  value  at 
the date of acquisition. Transaction costs incurred in 
connection with a business acquisition are expensed 
as incurred. 

The cost of an acquisition also includes the fair value 
of any contingent consideration measured as at the 
date of acquisition. Any subsequent changes to the 
fair  value  of  contingent  consideration  classified 
as  liabilities,  other  than  measurement  period 
adjustments,  are  recognised  in  the  statement  of 
profit and loss.

  Common Control business combinations

The  Company  accounts  for  business  combinations 
involving  entities  or  businesses  under  common 
control  using  the  pooling  of  interests  method. The 
assets  and  liabilities  of  the  combining  entities  are 
reflected at their carrying amounts. The identity of 
the reserves are preserved and appear in the financial 
statements  of  the  transferee  in  the  same  form  in 
which  they  appeared  in  the  financial  statements 
of  the  transferor.  The  difference,  if  any,  between 
the  amount  recorded  as  share  capital  issued  plus 
any  additional  consideration  in  the  form  of  cash 
or  other  assets  and  the  amount  of  share  capital 
of  the  transferor  is  transferred  to  capital  reserve 
and  is  presented  separately  as  Common  Control 
Transactions Capital reserve. 

b)  Goodwill 

The  excess  of  the  cost  of  an  acquisition  over  the 
Company’s share in the fair value of the acquiree’s 
identifiable  assets  and  liabilities  is  recognised  as 

Standalone Financial Statements under Ind ASWipro Limited 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
goodwill. If the excess is negative, a bargain purchase 
gain  is  recognised  in  equity  as  capital  reserve. 
Goodwill  is  measured  at  cost  less  accumulated 
impairment (if any).

Goodwill associated with the disposal of an operation 
that  is  part  of  cash-generating  unit  is  measured 
on the basis of the relative values of the operation 
disposed of and the portion of the cash-generating 
unit  retained,  unless  the  entity  can  demonstrate 
that some other method better reflects the goodwill 
associated with the operation disposed of.

of  the  minimum  lease  payments.  Lease  payments 
are apportioned between the finance charge and the 
outstanding liability. The finance charge is allocated 
to  periods  during  the  lease  term  at  a  constant 
periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of 
the liability. 

Leases  where  the  lessor  retains  substantially  all 
the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as 
operating  leases.  Payments  made  under  operating 
leases are recognised in the statement of profit and 
loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. 

c) 

Intangible assets 

b)  Arrangements where the Company is the lessor 

Intangible assets acquired separately are measured 
at  cost  of  acquisition.  Intangible  assets  acquired 
in  a  business  combination  are  measured  at  fair 
value as at the date of acquisition. Following initial 
recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less 
accumulated amortization and impairment losses, if 
any. 

The amortization of an intangible asset with a finite 
useful life reflects the manner in which the economic 
benefit is expected to be generated. 

The estimated useful life of amortisable intangibles 
is  reviewed  and  where  appropriate  are  adjusted, 
annually. The estimated useful lives of the amortisable 
intangible  assets  for  the  current  and  comparative 
periods are as follows: 

Category
Customer related intangibles 
Marketing related intangibles 

Useful life
5 to 10 years
3 to 5 years

Goodwill and intangible assets, if any, associated with 
an operation disposed shall be measured on the basis 
of  the  relative  values  of  the  operation  disposed  of 
and the portion of the cash-generating unit retained, 
unless the entity can demonstrate that some other 
method better reflects the goodwill associated with 
the operation disposed of.

(vii)  Leases 

The determination of whether an arrangement is, or 
contains, a lease is based on the substance of the 
arrangement at the inception date. The arrangement 
is, or contains a lease if, fulfillment of the arrangement 
is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets 
or the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset 
or assets, even if that right is not explicitly specified 
in an arrangement. 

a)  Arrangements where the Company is the lessee 

Leases of property, plant and equipment, where the 
Company  assumes  substantially  all  the  risks  and 
rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. 
Finance  leases  are  capitalised  at  lower  of  the  fair 
value of the leased property and the present value 

In  certain  arrangements,  the  Company  recognises 
revenue  from  the  sale  of  products  given  under 
finance  leases.  The  Company  records  gross 
finance  receivables,  unearned  income  and  the 
estimated  residual  value  of  the  leased  equipment 
on consummation of such leases. Unearned income 
represents  the  excess  of  the  gross  finance  lease 
receivable  plus  the  estimated  residual  value  over 
the  sales  price  of  the  equipment.  The  Company 
recognises unearned income as finance income over 
the lease term using the effective interest method. 

(viii) Inventories 

Inventories  are  valued  at  lower  of  cost  and  net 
realisable  value,  including  necessary  provision  for 
obsolescence. Cost is determined using the weighted 
average method. 

(ix) Impairment 

A)   Financial assets 

 The Company applies the expected credit loss 
model  for  recognizing  impairment  loss  on 
financial  assets  measured  at  amortised  cost, 
debt  instruments  classified  as  FVTOCI,  lease 
receivables, trade receivables, contract assets 
and other financial assets. Expected credit loss 
is the difference between the contractual cash 
flows and the cash flows that the entity expects 
to  receive  discounted  using  effective  interest 
rate.

 Loss allowances for trade receivables, contract 
assets and lease receivables are measured at 
an  amount  equal  to  lifetime  expected  credit 
losses.  Lifetime  expected  credit  losses  are 
the expected credit losses that result from all 
possible default events over the expected life of 
a financial instrument. Lifetime expected credit 
loss  is  computed  based  on  a  provision  matrix 
which  takes  in  to  the  account  risk  profiling  of 
customers and historical credit loss experience 
adjusted  for  forward  looking  information.  For 
other  financial  assets,  expected  credit  loss  is 
measured at the amount equal to twelve months 
expected  credit  loss  unless  there  has  been  a 
significant  increase  in  credit  risk  from  initial 

157

Standalone Financial Statements under Ind ASAnnual Report 2018-19 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
recognition, in which case those are measured 
at lifetime expected credit loss. 

B)  

Impairment of Investment in subsidiaries

cash-generating  units  which  represent  the 
lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for 
internal management purposes. An impairment 
in respect of goodwill is not reversed. 

 The  Company  assesses  investments  in 
subsidiaries  for  impairment  whenever  events 
or  changes  in  circumstances  indicate  that  the 
carrying  amount  of  the  investment  may  not  be 
recoverable.  If  any  such  indication  exists,  the 
Company  estimates  the  recoverable  amount  of 
the  investment  in  subsidiary. The  recoverable 
amount  of  such  investment  is  the  higher  of  its 
fair  value  less  cost  of  disposal  (FVLCD)  and  its 
value-in-use (VIU). The VIU of the investment is 
calculated using projected future cash flows. If 
the recoverable amount of the investment is less 
than its carrying amount, the carrying amount is 
reduced to its recoverable amount. The reduction 
is treated as an impairment loss and is recognised 
in the statement of profit and loss.

C)   Non - financial assets

 The Company assesses long-lived assets such 
as property, plant and equipment and acquired 
intangible  assets  for  impairment  whenever 
events  or  changes  in  circumstances  indicate 
that  the  carrying  amount  of  an  asset  or  group 
of  assets  may  not  be  recoverable.  If  any  such 
indication  exists,  the  Company  estimates  the 
recoverable  amount  of  the  asset  or  group  of 
assets. The recoverable amount of an asset or 
cash generating unit is the higher of its fair value 
less cost of disposal (FVLCD) and its value-in-use 
(VIU). The VIU of long-lived assets is calculated 
using  projected  future  cash  flows.  FVLCD  of  a 
cash generating unit is computed using turnover 
and earnings multiples. If the recoverable amount 
of  the  asset  or  the  recoverable  amount  of  the 
cash generating unit to which the asset belongs 
is  less  than  its  carrying  amount,  the  carrying 
amount is reduced to its recoverable amount. The 
reduction is treated as an impairment loss and is 
recognised in the statement of profit and loss. If 
at the reporting date, there is an indication that 
a previously assessed impairment loss no longer 
exists, the recoverable amount is reassessed and 
the impairment losses previously recognised are 
reversed such that the asset is recognised at its 
recoverable  amount  but  not  exceeding  written 
down value which would have been reported if 
the impairment losses had not been recognised 
initially. 

 Goodwill  is  tested  for  impairment  at  least 
annually  at  the  same  time  and  when  events 
occur  or  changes  in  circumstances  indicate 
that  the  recoverable  amount  of  the  cash 
generating  unit  is  less  than  its  carrying  value. 
The  goodwill  impairment  test  is  performed  at 
the  level  of  cash-generating  unit  or  groups  of 

(x)   Employee benefits 

a)  Post-employment and pension plans 

The  Company  participates  in  various  employee 
benefit plans. Pensions and other post-employment 
benefits are classified as either defined contribution 
plans  or  defined  benefit  plans.  Under  a  defined 
contribution plan, the Company’s only obligation is to 
pay a fixed amount with no obligation to pay further 
contributions  if  the  fund  does  not  hold  sufficient 
assets  to  pay  all  employee  benefits.  The  related 
actuarial  and  investment  risks  are  borne  by  the 
employee. The expenditure for defined contribution 
plans is recognised as an expense during the period 
when  the  employee  provides  service.  Under  a 
defined benefit plan, it is the Company’s obligation 
to  provide  agreed  benefits  to  the  employees.  The 
related actuarial and investment risks are borne by 
the Company. The present value of the defined benefit 
obligations is calculated by an independent actuary 
using the projected unit credit method. 

Re-measurement comprising actuarial gains or losses 
and the return on plan assets (excluding interest) are 
immediately  recognised  in  other  comprehensive 
income, net of taxes and permanently excluded from 
profit or loss. Instead net interest recognised in profit 
or  loss  is  calculated  by  applying  the  discount  rate 
used to measure the defined benefit obligation to the 
net defined benefit liability or asset. The actual return 
on the plan assets above or below the discount rate is 
recognised as part of re-measurement of net defined 
liability  or  asset  through  other  comprehensive 
income, net of taxes. 

The  Company  has  the  following  employee  benefit 
plans: 

A.   Provident fund 

 Employees  receive  benefits  from  a  provident 
fund,  which  is  a  defined  benefit  plan.  The 
employer  and  employees  each  make  periodic 
contributions  to  the  plan.  A  portion  of  the 
contribution is made to the approved provident 
fund  trust  managed  by  the  Company  while 
the  remainder  of  the  contribution  is  made  to 
the  government  administered  pension  fund. 
The contributions to the trust managed by the 
Company is accounted for as a defined benefit 
plan as the Company is liable for any shortfall 
in  the  fund  assets  based  on  the  government 
specified minimum rates of return. 

B.   Superannuation 

 Superannuation  plan,  a  defined  contribution 
scheme  is  administered  by  third  party  fund 

158

Standalone Financial Statements under Ind ASWipro Limited 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
managers.  The  Company  makes  annual 
contributions based on a specified percentage 
of each eligible employee’s salary. 

C.   Gratuity 

 In  accordance  with  the  Payment  of  Gratuity 
Act, 1972, applicable for Indian companies, the 
Company provides for a lump sum payment to 
eligible employees, at retirement or termination 
of employment based on the last drawn salary 
and years of employment with the Company. The 
gratuity fund is managed by the third-party fund 
managers. The Company’s obligation in respect 
of the gratuity plan, which is a defined benefit 
plan, is provided for based on actuarial valuation 
using  the  projected  unit  credit  method.  The 
Company recognises actuarial gains and losses 
in other comprehensive income, net of taxes. 

vesting  period  and  for  company’s  performance-
based stock options over the defined period. Equity 
instruments granted are measured by reference to 
the fair value of the instrument at the date of grant. 
In cases, where equity instruments are granted at a 
nominal exercise price, the intrinsic value on the date 
of  grant  approximates  the  fair  value. The  expense 
is  recognised  in  the  statement  of  profit  and  loss 
with a corresponding increase to the share options 
outstanding account, a component of equity. 

The  equity  instruments  generally  vest  in  a  graded 
manner  over  the  vesting  period.  The  fair  value 
determined  at  the  grant  date  is  expensed  over 
the  vesting  period  of  the  respective  tranches  of 
such  grants  (accelerated  amortisation). The  stock 
compensation expense is determined based on the 
Company’s estimate of equity instruments that will 
eventually vest. 

b) 

Termination benefits 

(xii)  Provisions 

Termination  benefits  are  expensed  when  the 
Company can no longer withdraw the offer of those 
benefits. 

c)  Short-term benefits 

Short-term  employee  benefit  obligations  are 
measured on an undiscounted basis and are recorded 
as  expense  as  the  related  service  is  provided.  A 
liability  is  recognised  for  the  amount  expected  to 
be  paid  under  short-term  cash  bonus  or  profit-
sharing  plans,  if  the  Company  has  a  present  legal 
or  constructive  obligation  to  pay  this  amount  as  a 
result of past service provided by the employee and 
the obligation can be estimated reliably. 

d)  Compensated absences 

The  employees  of  the  Company  are  entitled  to 
compensated  absences. The  employees  can  carry 
forward  a  portion  of  the  unutilised  accumulating 
compensated  absences  and  utilise  it  in  future 
periods or receive cash at retirement or termination 
of employment. The Company records an obligation 
for compensated absences in the period in which the 
employee  renders  the  services  that  increases  this 
entitlement. The  Company  measures  the  expected 
cost  of  compensated  absences  as  the  additional 
amount that the Company expects to pay as a result 
of  the  unused  entitlement  that  has  accumulated 
at  the  end  of  the  reporting  period.  The  Company 
recognises  accumulated  compensated  absences 
based  on  actuarial  valuation  using  the  projected 
unit credit method. Non-accumulating compensated 
absences are recognised in the period in which the 
absences occur. 

(xi)   Share based payment transactions 

Selected  employees  of  the  Company  receive 
remuneration  in  the  form  of  equity  settled 
instruments,  for  rendering  services  over  a  defined 

Provisions  are  recognised  when  the  Company  has 
a  present  obligation  (legal  or  constructive)  as  a 
result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow 
of  economic  benefits  will  be  required  to  settle  the 
obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the 
amount of the obligation. 

The  amount  recognised  as  a  provision  is  the  best 
estimate of the consideration required to settle the 
present obligation at the end of the reporting period, 
taking  into  account  the  risks  and  uncertainties 
surrounding the obligation. 

When some or all of the economic benefits required 
to  settle  a  provision  are  expected  to  be  recovered 
from a third party, the receivable is recognised as an 
asset, if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will 
be received and the amount of the receivable can be 
measured reliably. 

Provisions for onerous contracts are recognised when 
the expected benefits to be derived by the Company 
from a contract are lower than the unavoidable costs 
of meeting the future obligations under the contract. 
Provisions  for  onerous  contracts  are  measured  at 
the present value of lower of the expected net cost 
of  fulfilling  the  contract  and  the  expected  cost  of 
terminating the contract. 

(xiii) Revenue 

The Company derives revenue primarily from software 
development,  maintenance  of  software/hardware 
and related services, business process services, sale 
of IT and other products. 

Revenue  is  recognised  upon  transfer  of  control  of 
promised  products  or  services  to  customers  in  an 
amount that reflects the consideration the Company 
expects to receive in exchange for those products or 
services. To recognise revenues, the Company applies 

159

Standalone Financial Statements under Ind ASAnnual Report 2018-19 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
the  following  five  step  approach:  (1)  identify  the 
contract with a customer, (2) identify the performance 
obligations  in  the  contract,  (3)  determine  the 
transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to 
the performance obligations in the contract, and (5) 
recognise revenues when a performance obligation 
is satisfied. 

At  contract  inception,  the  Company  assesses  its 
promise to transfer products or services to a customer 
to  identify  separate  performance  obligations.  The 
Company applies judgement to determine whether 
each product  or service promised to  a  customer  is 
capable  of  being  distinct,  and  are  distinct  in  the 
context of the contract, if not, the promised products 
or services are combined and accounted as a single 
performance obligation. The Company allocates the 
arrangement consideration to separately identifiable 
performance  obligations  based  on  their  relative 
stand-alone selling price or residual method. Stand-
alone  selling  prices  are  determined  based  on  sale 
prices for the components when it is regularly sold 
separately. In cases where the Company is unable to 
determine the stand-alone selling price, the Company 
uses third-party prices for similar deliverables or the 
company uses expected cost-plus margin approach 
in estimating the stand-alone selling price.

For  performance  obligations  where  control  is 
transferred  over  time,  revenues  are  recognised  by 
measuring  progress  towards  completion  of  the 
performance obligation. The selection of the method 
to  measure  progress  towards  completion  requires 
judgment and is based on the nature of the promised 
products or services to be provided.

The  method  for  recognizing  revenues  and  costs 
depends on the nature of the services rendered: 

A. 

 Time and materials contracts 

 Revenues  and  costs  relating  to  time  and 
materials  contracts  are  recognised  as  the 
related services are rendered. 

B.   Fixed-price contracts 

i)   Fixed-price development contracts

 Revenues from fixed-price contracts, including 
software  development ,  and  integration 
contracts,  where  the  performance  obligations 
are  satisfied  over  time,  are  recognised  using 
the  “percentage-of-completion”  method. 
Percentage  of  completion  is  determined 
based  on  project  costs  incurred  to  date  as  a 
percentage  of  total  estimated  project  costs 
required  to  complete  the  project.  The  cost 
expended  (or  input)  method  has  been  used 
to  measure  progress  towards  completion  as 
there  is  a  direct  relationship  between  input 
and productivity. If the Company is not able to 
reasonably measure the progress of completion, 

revenue is recognised only to the extent of costs 
incurred  for  which  recoverability  is  probable. 
When  total  cost  estimates  exceed  revenues 
in  an  arrangement,  the  estimated  losses  are 
recognised in the statement of profit and loss in 
the period in which such losses become probable 
based on the current contract estimates as an 
onerous contract provision. 

 A  contract  asset  is  a  right  to  consideration 
that is conditional upon factors other than the 
passage of time. Contract assets primarily relate 
to unbilled amounts on fixed-price development 
contracts  and  are  classified  as  non-financial 
asset as the contractual right to consideration 
is  dependent  on  completion  of  contractual 
milestones.

 A  contract  liability  is  an  entity’s  obligation  to 
transfer  goods  or  services  to  a  customer  for 
which the entity has received consideration (or 
the amount is due) from the customer.

 Unbilled  revenues  on  other  than  fixed  price 
development  contracts  are  classified  as  a 
financial asset where the right to consideration 
is unconditional upon passage of time.

ii)   Maintenance contracts 

 Revenues  related  to  fixed-price  maintenance, 
testing  and  business  process  services  are 
recognised  based  on  our  right  to  invoice  for 
services  performed  for  contracts  in  which  the 
invoicing  is  representative  of  the  value  being 
delivered. If our invoicing is not consistent with 
value  delivered,  revenues  are  recognised  as 
the service is performed using the percentage 
of  completion  method.  When  services  are 
performed  through  an  indefinite  number  of 
repetitive acts over a specified period, revenue 
is recognised on a straight-line basis over the 
specified  period  unless  some  other  method 
better represents the stage of completion. 

 In certain projects, a fixed quantum of service or 
output units is agreed at a fixed price for a fixed 
term. In such contracts, revenue is recognised 
with respect to the actual output achieved till 
date as a percentage of total contractual output. 
Any residual service unutilised by the customer 
is recognised as revenue on completion of the 
term. 

iii)   Volume based contracts

 Revenues  and  costs  are  recognised  as  the 
related services are rendered.

C.  Products 

 Revenue on product sales are recognised when 
the  customer  obtains  control  of  the  specified 
asset.

D.   Others

 Any change in scope or price is considered as a 
contract  modification. The  Company  accounts 
for  modifications  to  existing  contracts  by 
assessing  whether  the  services  added  are 
distinct and whether the pricing is at the stand-
alone  selling  price.  Services  added  that  are 
not distinct are accounted for on a cumulative 
catch up basis, while those that are distinct are 
accounted for prospectively, either as a separate 
contract if the additional services are priced at 
the stand-alone selling price, or as a termination 
of the existing contract and creation of a new 
contract if not priced at the stand-alone selling 
price.

 T h e   C o m p a n y   a c c o u n t s   f o r   v a r i a b l e 
considerations  like,  volume  discounts, 
rebates  and  pricing  incentives  to  customers 
as  reduction  of  revenue  on  a  systematic  and 
rational  basis  over  the  period  of  the  contract. 
The  Company  estimates  an  amount  of  such 
variable  consideration  using  expected  value 
method  or  the  single  most  likely  amount  in  a 
range  of  possible  consideration  depending  on 
which  method  better  predicts  the  amount  of 
consideration  to  which  the  Company  may  be 
entitled.

 Revenues are shown net of allowances/ returns, 
sales tax, value added tax, goods and services 
tax and applicable discounts and allowances. 

 The  Company  accrues  the  estimated  cost  of 
warranties  at  the  time  when  the  revenue  is 
recognised.  The  accruals  are  based  on  the 
Company’s  historical  experience  of  material 
usage and service delivery costs. 

 Incremental  costs  that  relate  directly  to  a 
contract and incurred in securing a contract with 
a customer are recognised as an asset when the 
Company  expects  to  recover  these  costs  and 
amortised over the contract term. 

 The Company recognises contract fulfilment cost 
as an asset if those costs specifically relate to a 
contract or to an anticipated contract, the costs 
generate or enhance resources that will be used 
in satisfying performance obligations in future; 
and  the  costs  are  expected  to  be  recovered. 
The  asset  so  recognised  is  amortised  on  a 
systematic  basis  consistent  with  the  transfer 
of goods or services to customer to which the 
asset relates.

 The  Company  assesses  the  timing  of  the 
transfer  of  goods  or  services  to  the  customer 
as  compared  to  the  timing  of  payments  to 
determine  whether  a  significant  financing 
component  exists.  As  a  practical  expedient, 
the  Company  does  not  assess  the  existence 

of a significant financing component when the 
difference  between  payment  and  transfer  of 
deliverables is a year or less. If the difference 
in  timing  arises  for  reasons  other  than  the 
provision  of  finance  to  either  the  customer  or 
us, no financing component is deemed to exist.

 The  Company  may  enter  into  arrangements 
with third party suppliers to resell products or 
services. In such cases, the Company evaluates 
whether  the  Company  is  the  principal  (i.e. 
report  revenues  on  a  gross  basis)  or  agent 
(i.e.  report  revenues  on  a  net  basis).  In  doing 
so,  the  Company  first  evaluates  whether  the 
Company controls the good or service before it is 
transferred to the customer. If Company controls 
the good or service before it is transferred to the 
customer, Company is the principal; if not, the 
Company is the agent.

(xiv)  Finance cost

Finance cost comprise interest cost on borrowings, 
gain or losses arising on re-measurement of financial 
assets  at  FVTPL,  gains/  (losses)  on  translation 
or  settlement  of  foreign  currency  borrowings 
and  changes  in  fair  value  and  gains/  (losses)  on 
settlement  of  related  derivative  instruments. 
Borrowing costs that are not directly attributable to 
a qualifying asset are recognised in the statement of 
profit and loss using the effective interest method. 

(xv) Other income 

Other income comprises interest income on deposits, 
dividend income and gains / (losses), net, on disposal 
of investments. Interest income is recognised using 
the  effective  interest  method.  Dividend  income  is 
recognised  when  the  right  to  receive  payment  is 
established.

(xvi) Income tax 

Income  tax  comprises  current  and  deferred  tax. 
Income tax expense is recognised in the statement 
of profit and loss except to the extent it relates to a 
business combination, or items directly recognised 
in equity or in other comprehensive income.

a)  Current income tax 

 Current  income  tax  for  the  current  and  prior 
periods are measured at the amount expected 
to  be  recovered  from  or  paid  to  the  taxation 
authorities  based  on  the  taxable  income  for 
the period. The tax rates and tax laws used to 
compute the current tax amount are those that 
are enacted or substantively enacted as at the 
reporting date and applicable for the period. The 
Company offsets current tax assets and current 
tax liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable 
right  to  set  off  the  recognised  amounts  and 
where it intends either to settle on a net basis, or 
to realise the asset and liability simultaneously.

b)  Deferred income tax 

 Deferred  income  tax  is  recognised  using  the 
balance  sheet  approach.  Deferred  income 
tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  recognised  for 
deductible  and  taxable  temporary  differences 
arising  between  the  tax  base  of  assets  and 
liabilities and their carrying amount in financial 
statements, except when the deferred income 
tax arises from the initial recognition of goodwill 
or  an  asset  or  liability  in  a  transaction  that  is 
not a business combination and affects neither 
accounting nor taxable profits or loss at the time 
of the transaction. 

 Deferred  income  tax  assets  are  recognised 
to  the  extent  it  is  probable  that  taxable  profit 
will be available against which the deductible 
temporary differences and the carry forward of 
unused tax credits and unused tax losses can 
be utilised. 

 Deferred  income  tax  liabilities  are  recognised 
for all taxable temporary differences except in 
respect of taxable temporary differences that is 
expected to reverse within the tax holiday period, 
taxable temporary differences associated with 
investments  in  subsidiaries,  associates  and 
foreign branches where the timing of the reversal 
of  the  temporary  difference  can  be  controlled 
and it is probable that the temporary difference 
will not reverse in the foreseeable future. 

 The  carrying  amount  of  deferred  income  tax 
assets  is  reviewed  at  each  reporting  date 
and  reduced  to  the  extent  that  it  is  no  longer 
probable  that  sufficient  taxable  profit  will  be 
available  to  allow  all  or  part  of  the  deferred 
income tax asset to be utilised. 

 Deferred  income  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are 
measured at the tax rates that are expected to 
apply in the period when the asset is realised or 
the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax 
laws) that have been enacted or substantively 
enacted at the reporting date. 

 The Company offsets deferred income tax assets 
and liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable 
right to offset current tax assets against current 
tax liabilities, and they relate to taxes levied by 
the same taxation authority on either the same 
taxable  entity,  or  on  different  taxable  entities 
where there is an intention to settle the current 
tax  liabilities  and  assets  on  a  net  basis  or 
their  tax  assets  and  liabilities  will  be  realised 
simultaneously. 

(xvii) Earnings per share 

shares held. Diluted earnings per share is computed 
using  the  weighted-average  number  of  equity  and 
dilutive  equivalent  shares  outstanding  during  the 
period, using the treasury stock method for options, 
except where the results would be anti-dilutive.

The number of equity shares and potentially dilutive 
equity  shares  are  adjusted  retrospectively  for  all 
periods  presented  for  any  splits  and  bonus  shares 
issues  including  for  change  effected  prior  to  the 
approval of the financial statements by the Board of 
Directors.

(xviii) Cash flow statement

Cash  flow  are  reported  using  the  indirect  method, 
whereby  profit  for  the  period  is  adjusted  for  the 
effects  of  transactions  of  a  non-cash  nature,  any 
deferrals or accruals of past or future operating cash 
receipts or payments and item of income or expenses 
associated  with  investing  or  financing  cash  flows. 
The  cash  from  operating,  investing  and  financing 
activities of the Company are segregated.

The amendment to Ind AS 7, require entities to provide 
disclosures about changes in their liabilities arising 
from  financing  activities,  including  both  changes 
arising from cash flows and non-cash changes (such 
as foreign exchange gains or losses).

(xix) Assets held for sale

Sale  of  business  is  classified  as  held  for  sale,  if 
their  carrying  amount  is  intended  to  be  recovered 
principally  through  sale  rather  than  through 
continuing  use.  The  condition  for  classification 
as  held  for  sale  is  met  when  disposal  business  is 
available for immediate sale and the same is highly 
probable of being completed within one year from the 
date of classification as held for sale.

(xx) Discontinued operations 

A  discontinued  operation  is  a  component  of  the 
Company’s business that represents a separate line 
of business that has been disposed of or is held for 
sale,  or  is  a  subsidiary  acquired  exclusively  with 
a  view  to  resale.  Classification  as  a  discontinued 
operation occurs upon the earlier of disposal or when 
the operation meets the criteria to be classified as 
held for sale. 

(xxi) Non-current assets and disposal groups held for sale

Assets  of  disposal  groups  that  is  available  for 
immediate sale and where the sale is highly probable 
of being completed within one year from the date of 
classification are considered and classified as assets 
held for sale. Non-current assets and disposal groups 
held for sale are measured at the lower of carrying 
amount and fair value less costs to sell.

Basic  earnings  per  share  is  computed  using 
the  weighted  average  number  of  equity  shares 
outstanding during the period adjusted for treasury 

(xxii) Disposal of assets

The gain or loss arising on disposal or retirement of

loss.

New Accounting standards adopted by the Company: 

Ind AS 115 – Revenue from Contract with Customers

On April 1, 2018, the Company adopted Ind AS 115, 
“Revenue  from  Contracts  with  Customers”  using 
the cumulative catch-up transition method applied 
to contracts that were not completed as at April 1, 
2018.  In  accordance  with  the  cumulative  catch-up 
transition method, the comparatives have not been 
retrospectively adjusted. 

The adoption of the new standard has resulted in a 
reduction  of  `  1,605  in  opening  retained  earnings, 
primarily relating to certain contract costs because 
these do not meet the criteria for recognition as costs 
to fulfil a contract.

On  account  of  adoption  of  Ind  AS  115,  unbilled 
revenues  pertaining  to  fixed  price  development 
contracts of ` 10,845 as at March 31, 2019 has been 
considered as non-financial Contract assets, which 
are  billable  on  completion  milestones  specified  in 
the contracts.

Unbilled  revenues  of  `  16,023,  which  are  billable 
based on passage of time been classified as unbilled 
receivables.

The adoption of Ind AS 115, did not have any material 
impact on the statement of profit and loss for the year 
ended March 31, 2019.

A.  Contract Asset and Liabilities

The Company classifies its right to consideration in 
exchange for deliverables as either a receivable or a 
contract asset. 

A  receivable  is  a  right  to  consideration  that 
is  unconditional.  A  right  to  consideration  is 
unconditional if only the passage of time is required 
before  payment  of  that  consideration  is  due.  For 
example,  the  company  recognises  a  receivable  for 
revenues related to time and materials contracts or 
volume-based contracts. The Company presents such 
receivables  as  part  of  unbilled  receivables  at  their 
net estimated realizable value. The same is tested for 
impairment as per the guidance in Ind AS 109 using 
expected credit loss method. 

During the year ended March 31, 2019, the Company 
recognised revenue of ` 10,671 arising from opening 
unearned revenue as at April 1, 2018

During  the  year  ended  March  31,  2019,  `  9,369 
of  unbilled  revenue  pertaining  to  fixed-price 
development contracts (contract assets) which had 
an amount of ` 12,417 as at April 1, 2018, has been 
reclassified  to  trade  receivables  on  completion  of 
milestones.

Contract assets and liabilities are reported in a net 
position on a contract by contract basis at the end 
of each reporting period.

B.  Remaining Performance Obligations

Revenue  allocated  to  remaining  performance 
obligations represents contracted revenue that has 
not  yet  been  recognised  which  includes  unearned 
revenue  and  amounts  that  will  be  invoiced  and 
recognised as revenue in future periods. Applying the 
practical expedient, the Company has not disclosed 
its right to consideration from customer in an amount 
that  corresponds  directly  with  the  value  to  the 
customer of the Company’s performance completed 
to  date  which  are,  contracts  invoiced  on  time  and 
material basis and volume based.

As  at  March  31,  2019,  the  aggregate  amount  of 
transaction price allocated to remaining performance 
obligations, other than those meeting the exclusion 
criteria above, was ` 224,184, of which approximately 
72% is expected to be recognised as revenues within 
2 years, and the remainder thereafter. This includes 
contracts  that  can  be  terminated  for  convenience 
without a substantive penalty since, based on current 
assessment, the occurrence of the same is expected 
to be remote. 

C.  Disaggregation of Revenues

The  table  below  presents  disaggregated  revenues 
from contracts with customers by business segment, 
customer location and contract-type. The Company 
believes that the below disaggregation best depicts 
the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue 
and cash flows from economic factors.

Appendix  B  to  Ind  AS  21  -  Foreign  Currency 
Transactions and Advance Consideration

The  Company  has  applied  Appendix  B  to  Ind  AS 
21  -  Foreign  Currency  Transactions  and  Advance 
Consideration prospectively effective April 1, 2018. 
The  effect  on  adoption  of  this  amendment  on  the 
financial statements is insignificant.

New accounting standards not yet adopted:

Certain  new  standards,  amendments  to  standards 
and interpretations are not yet effective for annual 
periods  beginning  after  April  1  2018,  and  have  not 
been applied in preparing these financial statements. 
New  standards,  amendments  to  standards  and 
interpretations that could have potential impact on 
the financial statements of the Company are:

Ind AS 116

On March 30, 2019, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs 
issued Ind AS 116, Leases. Ind AS 116 will replace 
the  existing  leases  Standard,  Ind  AS  17  Leases, 
and related interpretations. The standard sets out 
the  principles  for  the  recognition,  measurement, 
presentation  and  disclosure  of  leases.  IND  AS 
116  introduces  a  single  lessee  accounting  model 
and  requires  a  lessee  to  recognised  assets  and 
liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12 
months, unless the underlying asset is of low value. 
The  Standard  also  contains  enhanced  disclosure 
requirements for lessees. 

The standard allows for two methods of transition: 
the  full  retrospective  approach,  requires  entities 
to  retrospectively  apply  the  new  standard  to  each 
prior  reporting  period  presented  and  the  entities 
need to adjust equity at the beginning of the earliest 
comparative  period  presented,  or  the  modified 
retrospective  approach,  under  which  the  date  of 
initial application of the new leases standard, lessees 
recognise the cumulative effect of initial application 
as an adjustment to the opening balance of equity 
as at annual periods beginning on or after January 
1, 2019. 

The Company will adopt this standard using modified 
retrospective  method  effective  April  1,  2019,  and 
accordingly, the comparative for year ended March 31, 
2018 and 2019, will not be retrospectively adjusted. 
The Company has elected certain available practical 
expedients on transition. 

Based  on  assessment,  the  adoption  of  the  new 
standard  is  expected  to  recognise  a  right-of-
use  assets  and  corresponding  lease  liabilities  of 
approximately ` 5,579 and ` 6,799 respectively. There 
will be reclassification in the cash flow categories in 
the statement of cash flows.

Appendix C to Ind AS 12 - Uncertainty over income 
tax treatments

On  March  30,  2019,  Ministry  of  Corporate  Affairs 
issued Appendix C to Ind AS 12, which clarifies the 
accounting  for  uncertainties  in  income  taxes. The 
interpretation is to be applied to the determination 
of  taxable  profit  (tax  loss),  tax  bases,  unused  tax 
losses, unused tax credits and tax rates, when there 
is  uncertainty  over  income  tax  treatments  under 
Ind AS 12. The entity has to consider the probability 
of the relevant taxation authority accepting the tax 
treatment and the determination of taxable profit (tax 
loss), tax bases, unused tax losses, unused tax credits 
and tax rates would depend upon the probability. The 
effective date for adoption of Appendix C to Ind AS 12 
is April 1, 2019. The Company will apply Appendix C to 
Ind AS 12 prospectively from the effective date and 
the effect on adoption of Ind AS 12 on the financial 
statement is insignificant.

Amendment to Ind AS 12 – Income Taxes

On  March  30,  2019,  Ministry  of  Corporate  Affairs 
issued amendments to Ind AS 12 – Income Taxes. The 
amendments  clarify  that  an  entity  shall  recognise 
the  income  tax  consequences  of  dividends  on 
financial instruments classified as equity should be 
recognised according to where the entity originally 
recognised  those  past  transactions  or  events  that 
generated  distributable  profits  were  recognised. 
The effective date of these amendments is annual 
periods  beginning  on  or  after  April  1,  2019.  The 
Company is currently assessing the impact of this 
amendment on the Company’s consolidated financial 
statements.

Amendment  to  Ind  AS  19  -  Plan  Amendment, 
Curtailment or Settlement

On  March  30,  2019,  Ministry  of  Corporate  Affairs 
issued amendments to Ind AS 19, ‘Employee Benefits’, 
in connection with accounting for plan amendments, 
curtailments  and  settlements  requiring  an  entity 
to determine the current service costs and the net 
interest for the period after the remeasurement using 
the assumptions used for the remeasurement; and 
determine the net interest for the remaining period 
based on the remeasured net defined benefit liability 
or asset. These amendments are effective for annual 
reporting periods beginning on or after April 1, 2019. 
The  Company  will  apply  the  amendment  from  the 
effective  date  and  the  effect  on  adoption  of  the 
amendment on the consolidated financial statement 
is insignificant.

5.  Goodwill and other intangible assets

The Company is organised by three operating segments: IT Services, IT Products and India State Run Enterprise 
services. Goodwill as at March 31, 2019 and 2018 has been allocated to the IT Services operating segment.  

During the year ended March 31, 2019, the company realigned its CGUs. This realignment did not have any impact 
on allocation of goodwill to the CGUs. Below is the allocation of the goodwill to the CGUs:

CGUs

Energy, Natural Resources and Utilities (ENU)

Banking Financial Services and Insurance (BFSI)

For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to a CGU representing the lowest level within the 
company at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes, and which is not higher than the 
Company’s operating segment. Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the Company’s 
procedure for determining the recoverable value of each CGU.

The recoverable amount of the CGU is determined on the basis of Fair Value Less Cost of Disposal (FVLCD). The 
FVLCD of the CGU is determined based on the market capitalization approach, using the turnover and earnings 
multiples derived from observable market data. The fair value measurement is categorised as a level 2 fair value 
based on the inputs in the valuation techniques used. 

Based on the above testing, no impairment was identified as at March 31, 2019 and 2018 as the recoverable value 
of the CGUs exceeded the carrying value. Further, none of the CGU’s tested for impairment as at March 31, 2019 
and 2018 were at risk of impairment. An analysis of the calculation’s sensitivity to a change in the key parameters 
(turnover and earnings multiples), did not identify any probable scenarios where the CGU’s recoverable amount 
would fall below its carrying amount.

For the financial assets and liabilities subject to offsetting or similar arrangements, each agreement between the 
Company and the counterparty allows for net settlement of the relevant financial assets and liabilities when both 
elect to settle on a net basis. In the absence of such an election, financial assets and liabilities will be settled on 
a gross basis and hence are not offset.

Fair value

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, unbilled revenues, borrowings, trade payables, other 
current financial assets and liabilities approximate their carrying amount largely due to the short-term nature of 
these instruments. The Company’s long-term debt has been contracted at market rates of interest. Accordingly, 
the carrying value of such long-term debt approximates fair value. Further, finance lease receivables that are 
overdue are periodically evaluated based on individual credit worthiness of customers. Based on this evaluation, 
the Company records allowance for estimated losses on these receivables. As at March 31, 2019, and 2018, the 
carrying value of such receivables, net of allowances approximates the fair value.

Investments in liquid and short-term mutual funds, which are classified as FVTPL are measured using net asset 
values at the reporting date multiplied by the quantity held. Fair value of investments in certificate of deposits, 
commercial papers and bonds classified as FVTOCI is determined based on the indicative quotes of price and 
yields prevailing in the market at the reporting date. Fair value of investments in equity instruments classified as 
FVTOCI is determined using market and income approaches.

The  fair  value  of  derivative  financial  instruments  is  determined  based  on  observable  market  inputs  including 
currency spot and forward rates, yield curves, currency volatility etc.

. 

Fair value hierarchy

The table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value, by valuation method. The different levels have 
been defined as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, 
either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices).

Level 3 – Inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of the level 2 financial instruments 
included in the above table.

Derivative instruments (assets and liabilities): The Company enters into derivative financial instruments with 
various counter-parties, primarily, banks with investment grade credit ratings. Derivatives valued using valuation 
techniques with market observable inputs are mainly interest rate swaps, foreign exchange forward contracts and 
foreign exchange option contracts. The most frequently applied valuation techniques include forward pricing, swap 
models and Black Scholes models (for option valuation), using present value calculations. The models incorporate 
various inputs including the credit quality of counterparties, foreign exchange spot and forward rates, interest rate 
curves and forward rate curves of the underlying. As at March 31, 2019, the changes in counterparty credit risk 
had no material effect on the hedge effectiveness assessment for derivatives designated in hedge relationships 
and other financial instruments recognised at fair value.

Investment in commercial papers, certificate of deposits and bonds: Fair value of these instruments is derived 
based on the indicative quotes of price and yields prevailing in the market as at reporting date.

As at March 31, 2019 and 2018, a one percentage point change in the unobservable inputs used in fair valuation 
of Level 3 assets does not have a significant impact in its value.

Derivative assets and liabilities:

The Company is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations on foreign currency assets / liabilities and forecasted cash 
flows denominated in foreign currency and net investment in foreign operations. The Company follows established 
risk management policies, including the use of derivatives to hedge foreign currency assets / liabilities and foreign 
currency forecasted cash flows and net investment in foreign operations. The counter parties in these derivative 
instruments are primarily banks and the Company considers the risks of non-performance by the counterparty 
as non-material.

The related hedge transactions for balance in cash flow hedging reserves as at March 31, 2019 are expected to 
occur and be reclassified to the statement of profit and loss over a period of two years.

As at March 31, 2019 and 2018, there were no significant gains or losses on derivative transactions or portions 
thereof that have become ineffective as hedges, or associated with an underlying exposure that did not occur.

Sale of financial assets 

From time to time, in the normal course of business, the Company transfers accounts receivables, unbilled revenues, 
net investment in finance lease receivables (financials assets) to banks. Under the terms of the arrangements, 
the  Company  surrenders  control  over  the  financial  assets  and  transfer  is  without  recourse.  Accordingly,  such 
transfers are recorded as sale of financial assets. Gains and losses on sale of financial assets without recourse 
are recorded at the time of sale based on the carrying value of the financial assets and fair value of servicing 
liability. The incremental impact of such transactions on our cash flow and liquidity for the year ended March 31, 
2019 and March 31, 2018 is not material.

In certain cases, transfer of financial assets may be with recourse. Under arrangements with recourse, the Company 
is obligated to repurchase the uncollected financial assets, subject to limits specified in the agreement with the 
banks. These are reflected as part of borrowings in the balance sheet.

Financial risk management 

Market Risk 

Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, to fair values or to future cash flows that may result from a change 
in the price of a financial instrument. The value of a financial instrument may change as a result of changes in 
the interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and other market changes that affect market risk sensitive 
instruments. Market risk is attributable to all market risk sensitive financial instruments including investments, 
foreign currency receivables, payables and loans and borrowings. 

The Company’s exposure to market risk is a function of investment and borrowing activities and revenue generating 
activities  in  foreign  currency. The  objective  of  market  risk  management  is  to  avoid  excessive  exposure  of  the 
Company’s earnings and equity to losses. 

Risk Management Procedures 

The  Company  manages  market  risk  through  a  corporate  treasury  department,  which  evaluates  and  exercises 
independent  control  over  the  entire  process  of  market  risk  management. The  corporate  treasury  department 
recommends  risk  management  objectives  and  policies,  which  are  approved  by  senior  management  and  Audit 
Committee. The  activities  of  this  department  include  management  of  cash  resources,  implementing  hedging 
strategies for foreign currency exposures, borrowing strategies, and ensuring compliance with market risk limits 
and policies.

Foreign currency risk 

The Company operates internationally and a major portion of its business is transacted in several currencies. 
Consequently, the Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk through receiving payment for sales and services 
in the United States and elsewhere, and making purchases from overseas suppliers in various foreign currencies. 
The exchange rate risk primarily arises from foreign exchange revenue, receivables, cash balances, forecasted 
cash flows, payables and foreign currency loans and borrowings. A significant portion of the Company’s revenue 
is in the U.S. Dollar, the United Kingdom Pound Sterling, the Euro, the Canadian Dollar and the Australian Dollar, 
while a large portion of costs are in Indian rupees. The exchange rate between the rupee and these currencies 
has fluctuated significantly in recent years and may continue to fluctuate in the future. Appreciation of the rupee 
against these currencies can adversely affect the Company’s results of operations.

The Company evaluates exchange rate exposure arising from these transactions and enters into foreign currency 
derivative instruments to mitigate such exposure. The Company follows established risk management policies, 
including the use of derivatives like foreign exchange forward/option contracts to hedge forecasted cash flows 
denominated in foreign currency. 

The Company has designated certain derivative instruments as cash flow hedges to mitigate the foreign exchange 
exposure of forecasted highly probable cash flows. 

As at March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, a ` 1 increase/decrease in the spot exchange rate of the Indian rupee 
with the U.S. dollar would result in approximately ` 1,885 (Statement of profit and loss ` 485 and other comprehensive 
income ` 1,400) and ` 1,500 (Statement of profit and loss ` 414 and other comprehensive income ` 1,086), respectively, 
decrease/increase in the fair value of foreign currency dollar denominated derivative instruments.

and 2018:

As at March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, every 1% increase/decrease of the respective foreign currencies 
compared to functional currency of the Company would impact results by approximately ` 267 and ` 318 respectively.

Interest rate risk 

Interest  rate  risk  primarily  arises  from  floating  rate  borrowing,  including  various  revolving  and  other  lines  of 
credit. The Company’s investments are primarily in short-term investments, which do not expose it to significant 
interest rate risk. The Company manages its net exposure to interest rate risk relating to borrowings by entering 
into interest rate swap agreements, which allows it to exchange periodic payments based on a notional amount 
and agreed upon fixed and floating interest rates. Certain borrowings are also transacted at fixed interest rates. If 
interest rates were to increase by 100 bps from March 31, 2019, additional net annual interest expense on floating 
rate borrowing would amount to approximately ` 505.

Credit risk 

Credit risk arises from the possibility that customers may not be able to settle their obligations as agreed. To manage 
this, the Company periodically assesses the financial reliability of customers, taking into account the financial 
condition, current economic trends, analysis of historical bad debts and ageing of accounts receivable. Individual 
risk limits are set accordingly. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of the accounts receivable as at 
March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively and revenues for the year ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. 
There is no significant concentration of credit risk.

Counterparty risk 

Counterparty risk encompasses issuer risk on marketable securities, settlement risk on derivative and money 
market contracts and credit risk on cash and time deposits. Issuer risk is minimised by only buying securities which 
are at least AA rated in India based on Indian rating agencies. Settlement and credit risk is reduced by the policy 
of entering into transactions with counterparties that are usually banks or financial institutions with acceptable 
credit ratings. Exposure to these risks are closely monitored and maintained within predetermined parameters. 
There are limits on credit exposure to any financial institution. The limits are regularly assessed and determined 
based upon credit analysis including financial statements and capital adequacy ratio reviews. 

Liquidity risk 

Liquidity risk is defined as the risk that the Company will not be able to settle or meet its obligations on time or 
at a reasonable price. The Company’s corporate treasury department is responsible for liquidity and funding as 
well as settlement management. In addition, processes and policies related to such risks are overseen by senior 
management. Management monitors the Company’s net liquidity position through rolling forecasts on the basis 
of expected cash flows. As at March 31, 2019, cash and cash equivalents are held with major banks and financial 
institutions.

The table below provides details regarding the remaining contractual maturities of significant financial liabilities 
at  the  reporting  date. The  amounts  include  estimated  interest  payments  and  exclude  the  impact  of  netting 
agreements, if any.

Deferred taxes on unrealised foreign exchange gain / loss relating to cash flow hedges, fair value movements in 
investments and actuarial gains/losses on defined benefit plans are recognised in other comprehensive income 
and presented within equity. Other than these, the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities is primarily recorded 
in the statement of profit and loss.

In assessing the realisability of deferred tax assets, the Company considers the extent to which it is probable 
that the deferred tax asset will be realised. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the 
generation of future taxable profits during the periods in which those temporary differences and tax loss carry-
forwards become deductible. The Company considers the expected reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected 
future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on this, the Company believes 
that  it  is  probable  that  the  Company  will  realise  the  benefits  of  these  deductible  differences. The  amount  of 
deferred tax asset considered realisable, however, could be reduced in the near term if the estimates of future 
taxable income during the carry-forward period are reduced.

Standalone Financial Statements under Ind ASAnnual Report 2018-19 
 
 
 
 
The Company has recognised deferred tax assets of ` 100 and ` 407 as at March 31, 2019 and 2018 in respect of 
capital loss incurred on account of liquidation of a subsidiary. Management’s projections of future taxable capital 
gain support the assumption that it is probable that sufficient taxable income will be available to utilise this 
deferred tax asset.

The Company has calculated its tax liability for current domestic taxes after considering MAT. The excess tax 
paid under MAT provisions over and above normal tax liability can be carried forward and set-off against future 
tax liabilities computed under normal tax provisions. The Company is not carrying any deferred tax assets as at 
March 31, 2019 relating to MAT.

A substantial portion of the profits of the Company’s India operations are exempt from Indian income taxes being 
profits attributable to export operations and profits from units established under Special Economic Zone, 2005 
scheme. Units in designated special economic zones providing service on or after April 1, 2005 will be eligible 
for a deduction of 100 percent of profits or gains derived from the export of services for the first five years from 
commencement of provision of services and 50 percent of such profits and gains for a further five years. Certain tax 
benefits are also available for a further five years subject to the unit meeting defined conditions. Profits from certain 
other undertakings are also eligible for preferential tax treatment. The tax holiday period being currently available 
to the Company expires in various years through fiscal 2032-33. The expiration period of tax holiday for each unit 
within a SEZ is determined based on the number of years that have lapsed following year of commencement of 
production by that unit. The impact of tax holidays has resulted in a decrease of current tax expense of `15,390 
and ` 11,598 for the year ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, compared to the effective tax amounts that 
we estimate we would have been required to pay if these incentives had not been available. The effect of these tax 
incentives on earnings per share for the year ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was ` 2.56 and `1.83, respectively. 

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences except in respect of taxable 
temporary differences associated with US branch profit tax where the timing of the reversal of the temporary 
difference can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable 
future. Accordingly, deferred income tax liabilities on branch profit tax @ 15% of the US branch profits have not 
been  recognised  as  the  Company  intends  to  reinvest  the  earnings  in  the  branch  operations.  Further,  it  is  not 
practicable to estimate the amount of the unrecognised deferred tax liabilities for these undistributed earnings.

b)  Defined benefit plans- Gratuity:

In accordance with the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, applicable for Indian companies, the Company provides 
for a lump sum payment to eligible employees, at retirement or termination of employment based on the last 
drawn salary and years of employment with the Company. The gratuity fund is managed by certain third party fund 
managers. The Company’s obligation in respect of the gratuity plan, which is a defined benefit plan, is provided for 
based on actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method. The Company recognises actuarial gains and 
losses immediately in other comprehensive income, net of taxes. Amount recognised in the statement of profit 
and loss in respect of gratuity cost (defined benefit plan) is as follows:

Current service cost
Net interest on net defined benefit liability/(asset)
Net gratuity cost/(benefit)
Actual return on plan assets

^ Value is less than ` 1.

As at March 31, 2019 and 2018, plan assets were primarily invested in insurer managed funds. 

The Company has established an income tax approved irrevocable trust fund to which it regularly contributes to 
finance the liabilities of the gratuity plan. The fund’s investments are managed by certain insurance companies 
as per the mandate provided to them by the trustees and the asset allocation is within the permissible limits 
prescribed in the insurance regulations.

The principal assumptions used for the purpose of actuarial valuation of these defined benefit plans are as follows:

Discount rate

Expected return on plan assets

Expected rate of salary increase

Duration of defined benefit obligations

As at

6.63%

6.63%

7.52%

6 years

6.93%

6.93%

7.51%

5 years

The expected return on plan assets is based on expectation of the average long term rate of return expected on 
investments of the fund during the estimated term of the obligations.

The  discount  rate  is  primarily  based  on  the  prevailing  market  yields  of  Indian  government  securities  for  the 
estimated term of the obligations. The estimates of future salary increases considered takes into account the 
inflation, seniority, promotion and other relevant factors. Attrition rate considered is the management’s estimate, 
based on previous years’ employee turnover of the Company.

The expected future contribution and estimated future benefit payments from the fund are as follows: 

Expected contribution to the fund during the year ending March 31, 2020
Estimated benefit payments from the fund for the year ending March 31:

The expected benefits are based on the same assumptions used to measure the Company’s benefit obligations 
as at March 31, 2019.

Sensitivity for significant actuarial assumptions is computed to show the movement in defined benefit obligation 
by 0.5 percentage.

As at March 31, 2019, every 0.5 percentage point increase/ (decrease) in discount rate will result in (decrease)/
increase of gratuity benefit obligation by approximately ` (242) and `265  respectively. 

As  at  March  31,  2019  every  0.5  percentage  point  increase/  (decrease)  in  expected  rate  of  salary  will  result  in 
increase/ (decrease) of gratuity benefit obligation by approximately ` 217 and ` (204) respectively.

27.  Earnings per equity share

A reconciliation of profit for the year and equity shares used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per 
equity share is set out below:

Basic:  Basic  earnings  per  share  is  calculated  by  dividing  the  profit  attributable  to  equity  shareholders  of  the 
Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year, excluding equity shares 
purchased by the Company and held as treasury shares. 

Profit attributable to equity holders of the Company 
Weighted average number of equity shares outstanding 
Basic earnings per share 

Year ended
March 31, 2019 March 31, 2018
`                 76,140 `               77,228
6,333,391,200
6,007,376,837
`                   12.67 `                 12.19

194

Standalone Financial Statements under Ind ASWipro Limited 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Diluted:  Diluted  earnings  per  share  is  calculated  by  adjusting  the  weighted  average  number  of  equity  shares 
outstanding during the year for assumed conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. Employee share options 
are dilutive potential equity shares for the Company. 

The  calculation  is  performed  in  respect  of  share  options  to  determine  the  number  of  shares  that  could  have 
been acquired at fair value (determined as the average market price of the Company’s shares during the year). 
The number of shares calculated as above is compared with the number of shares that would have been issued 
assuming the exercise of the share options.

`                   12.64 `                 12.17

Earnings per share and number of share outstanding for the year ended March 31, 2018 have been proportionately 
adjusted for the bonus issue in the ratio of 1:3 i.e.1 (One) bonus equity share of ` 2 each for every 3 (three) fully 
paid-up equity shares held. Refer Note 28.

28.  Dividends, Bonus and Buyback of equity shares

The Company declares and pays dividends in Indian rupees. According to the Companies Act, 2013 any dividend 
should be declared out of accumulated distributable profits. A Company may, before the declaration of any dividend, 
transfer a percentage of its profits for that financial year as it may consider appropriate to the reserves.

The  cash  dividends  paid  per  equity  share  were  `  1  and  `  1,  during  the  year  ended  March  31,  2019  and  2018, 
respectively, including an interim dividend of ` 1 and ` 1 for the year ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.

During the year ended March 31, 2019, the bonus issue in the proportion of 1:3 i.e.1 (One) bonus equity share of ` 2 
each for every 3 (three) fully paid-up equity shares held (including ADS holders) was approved by the shareholders 
of the Company on February 22, 2019, through Postal Ballot /e-voting. Subsequently, on March 8, 2019, the Company 
allotted 1,508,469,180 equity shares to shareholders who held equity shares as on the record date of March 7, 2019 
and ` 3,016 (representing par value of ` 2 per share) was transferred from capital redemption reserves, securities 
premium and retained earnings to the share capital.

During the year ended March 31, 2018, the bonus issue in the proportion of 1:1 i.e.1 (One) bonus equity share 
of ` 2 each for every 1 (one) fully paid-up equity share held (including ADS holders) had been approved by the 
shareholders of the Company on June 03, 2017 through Postal Ballot /e-voting. For this purpose, June 14, 2017, 
was fixed as the record date. Consequently, on June 15, 2017, the Company allotted 2,433,074,327 shares and  
` 4,866 (representing par value of ` 2 per share) has been transferred from retained earnings to share capital.

During the year ended March 31, 2018, the Company had concluded the buyback of 343,750,000 equity shares 
as approved by the Board of Directors on July 20, 2017. This had resulted in a total cash outflow of  ` 110,000. In 
line with the requirement of the Companies Act 2013, an amount of ` 1,656 and ` 108,344 has been utilised from 
the securities premium reserve and retained earnings respectively. Further, capital redemption reserves of ` 687 
(representing the nominal value of the shares bought back) has been created as an apportionment from retained 
earnings. Consequent to such buyback, share capital has reduced by ` 687.

29.  Additional capital disclosures

The key objective of the Company’s capital management is to ensure that it maintains a stable capital structure with 
the focus on total equity to uphold investor, creditor, and customer confidence and to ensure future development 
of its business. The Company focused on keeping strong total equity base to ensure independence, security, as 
well as a high financial flexibility for potential future borrowings, if required without impacting the risk profile of 
the Company.

The Company’s goal is to continue to be able to return excess liquidity to shareholders by continuing to distribute 
annual dividends in future periods.

33.  Commitments and contingencies

Capital commitments: As at March 31, 2019 and 2018 the Company had committed to spend approximately ` 12,005 
and ` 12,545 respectively, under agreements to purchase/ construct property and equipment. These amounts are 
net of capital advances paid in respect of these purchases..

Contingent liabilities to the extent not provided for:

Performance and financial guarantees given by the banks on behalf of the 
company
Guarantees given by the Company on behalf of subsidiaries

Contingencies and lawsuits:

The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims (including tax assessment orders/ penalty notices) which 
have arisen in the ordinary course of its business. Some of the claims involve complex issues and it is not possible 
to make a reasonable estimate of the expected financial effect, if any, that will result from ultimate resolution of 
such proceedings. However, the resolution of these legal proceedings is not likely to have a material and adverse 
effect on the results of operations or the financial position of the Company. The significant of such matters are 
discussed below.

In March 2004, the Company received a tax demand for year ended March 31, 2001 arising primarily on account of 
denial of deduction under section 10A of the Income Tax Act, 1961 (Act) in respect of profit earned by the Company’s 
undertaking in Software Technology Park at Bangalore. The same issue was repeated in the successive assessments 
for the years ended March 31, 2002 to March 31, 2011 and the aggregate demand is ` 47,583 (including interest of 
` 13,832). The appeals filed against the said demand before the Appellate authorities have been allowed in favor of 
the Company by the second appellate authority for the years up to March 31, 2008. Further appeals have been filed 
by the Income tax authorities before the Hon’ble High Court. The Hon’ble High Court has heard and disposed-of 
majority of the issues in favor of the Company up to years ended March 31, 2004. Department has filed a Special 
Leave Petition (SLP) before the Supreme Court of India for the year ended March 31, 2001 to March 31, 2004.

On similar issues for years up to March 31, 2000, the Hon’ble High Court of Karnataka has upheld the claim of the 
Company under section 10A of the Act. For the year ended March 31, 2009, the appeals are pending before Income 
Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT). For years ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2011, the Dispute Resolution Panel 
(DRP) allowed the claim of the Company under section 10A of the Act. The Income tax authorities have filed an 
appeal before the ITAT. 

For  year  ended  March  31,  2013,  the  Company  received  the  final  assessment  order  in  November  2017  with  a 
demand of ` 3,286 (including interest of ` 1,166), arising primarily on account of section 10AA issues with respect 
to exclusion from Export Turnover. The Company has filed an appeal before Hon’ble ITAT, Bengaluru within the 
prescribed timelines.

For  year  ended  March  31,  2014,  the  Company  received  the  final  assessment  order  in  September  2018  with  a 
demand of ` 1,030 (including Nil interest), arising primarily on account of transfer pricing issues. The Company 
has filed an appeal before the Hon’ble ITAT, Bengaluru within the prescribed timelines. 

For year ended March 31, 2015, the Company received the Draft assessment order in December 2018 with a demand 
of ` 6,467 (including interest of ` 2,007), arising primarily on account of Capitalization of wages. The Company has 
filed objections before the Dispute Resolution Panel (Bengaluru) within the prescribed timelines.

Income tax demands against the Company amounting to ` 101,440 and ` 66,441 are not acknowledged as debt 
as at March 31, 2018 and March 31, 2019, respectively. The contingent liability has been reworked on the basis 
of recent judicial pronouncements and updates. These matters are pending before various Appellate Authorities 
and the management expects its position will likely be upheld on ultimate resolution and will not have a material 
adverse effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

The contingent liability in respect of disputed demands for excise duty, custom duty, sales tax and other matters 
amounts to ` 7,745 and ` 8,477 as at March 31, 2018 and 2019. However, the resolution of these legal proceedings 
is not likely to have a material and adverse effect on the results of operations or the financial position of the 
Company.

Independent Auditor’s Report on Consolidated  
Financial Statements

To The Members of Wipro Limited

Basis for Opinion

Report  on  the  Audit  of  the  Consolidated  Financial 
Statements

Opinion

We  have  audited  the  accompanying  consolidated 
financial  statements  of  Wipro  Limited  (“the  Company”) 
and  its  subsidiaries,  (the  Company  and  its  subsidiaries 
together referred to as “the Group”), which comprise the 
Consolidated Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2019, and the 
Consolidated Statement of Profit and Loss (including Other 
Comprehensive Income), the Consolidated Statement of 
Changes  in  Equity  and  the  Consolidated  Statement  of 
Cash  Flows  for  the  year  then  ended,  and  a  summary  of 
significant  accounting  policies  and  other  explanatory 
information (herein after referred to as “the Consolidated 
financial statements”).

In  our  opinion  and  to  the  best  of  our  information  and 
according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid 
consolidated  financial  statements  give  the  information 
required  by  the  Companies  Act,  2013  (“the  Act”)  in 
the  manner  so  required  and  give  a  true  and  fair  view 
in  conformity  with  the  Indian  Accounting  Standards 
prescribed  under  section  133  of  the  Act  read  with  the 
Companies  (Indian  Accounting  Standards)  Rules,  2015, 
as  amended  (‘Ind  AS’),  and  other  accounting  principles 
generally accepted in India, of the consolidated state of 
affairs  of  the  Group  as  at  March  31,2019,  consolidated 
profit,  consolidated  total  comprehensive  income, 
consolidated  changes  in  equity  and  consolidated  cash 
flows for the year ended on that date. 

We  conducted  our  audit  of  the  consolidated  financial 
statements in accordance with the Standards on Auditing 
specified  under  section  143  (10)  of  the  Act  (SAs).  Our 
responsibilities  under  those  Standards  are  further 
described  in  the  Auditor’s  Responsibility  for  the  Audit 
of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our 
report. We are independent of the Group in accordance 
with  the  Code  of  Ethics  issued  by  the  Institute  of 
Chartered  Accountants  of  India  (ICAI)  together  with  the 
ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the 
consolidated  financial statements  under  the  provisions 
of the Act and the Rules made thereunder, and we have 
fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance 
with these requirements and the ICAI’s Code of Ethics. We 
believe that the audit evidence obtained by us is sufficient 
and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on 
the consolidated financial statements. 

Key Audit Matters

Key  audit  matters  are  those  matters  that,  in  our 
professional  judgment,  were  of  most  significance  in 
our  audit  of  the  consolidated  financial  statements  of 
the  current  period.  These  matters  were  addressed  in 
the  context  of  our  audit  of  the  consolidated  financial 
statements  as  a  whole,  and  in  forming  our  opinion 
thereon,  and  we  do  not  provide  a  separate  opinion 
on  these  matters.  We  have  determined  the  matters 
described  below  to  be  the  key  audit  matters  to  be 
communicated in our report.

Auditor’s Response
Principal Audit Procedures 

We assessed the Group’s process to identify the impact of adoption 
of the new revenue accounting standard. 

Our  audit  approach  consisted  testing  of  the  design  and  operating 
effectiveness  of  the  internal  controls  and  substantive  testing  as 
follows:

•  Evaluated the design of internal controls relating to implementation 

of the new revenue accounting standard. 

•  Selected  a  sample  of  continuing  and  new  contracts,  and  tested 
the  operating  effectiveness  of  the  internal  control,  relating 
to  identification  of  the  distinct  performance  obligations  and 
determination of transaction price. We carried out a combination 
of procedures involving inquiry and observation, reperformance and 
inspection of evidence in respect of operation of these controls.

disclosures which involves collation of 
information in respect of disaggregated 
revenue  and  periods  over  which  the 
remaining  performance  obligations 
will  be  satisfied  subsequent  to  the 
balance sheet date.
Refer  Note  3  to  the  Consolidated 
Financial Statements.

Auditor’s Response
•  Tested the relevant information technology systems’ access and 
change  management  controls  relating  to  contracts  and  related 
information used in recording and disclosing revenue in accordance 
with the new revenue accounting standard.

•  Selected a sample of continuing and new contracts and performed 

the following procedures among others:
• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

 Read,  analysed  and  identified  the  distinct  performance 
obligations in these contracts. 
 Compared these performance obligations with that identified 
and recorded by the Group. 
 Samples in respect of revenue recorded for time and material 
contracts  were  tested  using  a  combination  of  approved  time 
sheets including customer acceptances, subsequent invoicing 
and historical trend of collections and disputes.
 In respect of samples relating to fixed price contracts, progress 
towards satisfaction of performance obligation used to compute 
recorded revenue was verified with actual and estimated costs 
from the revenue recognition systems. 
 Sample of revenues disaggregated by type and service offerings 
were tested with the performance obligations specified in the 
underlying contracts. 

•  Performed analytical procedures for reasonableness of revenues 

disclosed by type and service offerings. 

•  We reviewed the collation of information and the logic of the report 
generated from the revenue recognition system used to prepare 
the  disclosure  relating  to  the  periods  over  which  the  remaining 
performance  obligations  will  be  satisfied  subsequent  to  the 
balance sheet date. 
Principal Audit Procedures
Our audit approach was a combination of test of internal controls and 
substantive procedures which included the following, among others:
•  Evaluated the design of internal controls relating to recording of 
efforts incurred and estimation of efforts required to complete the 
performance obligations. 

•  Tested  the  access  and  application  controls  pertaining  to  time 
recording  and  allocation  systems  which  prevents  unauthorised 
changes to recording of efforts incurred.

•  Selected  a  sample  of  contracts  and  through  inspection  of 
evidence of performance of these controls, tested the operating 
effectiveness of the internal controls relating to efforts incurred 
and estimated. 

•  Selected  a  sample  of  contracts  and  performed  a  retrospective 
review of completed efforts and activities with the planned efforts 
and activities to identify significant variations and verifiedwhether 
those variations have been considered in estimating the remaining 
efforts to complete the contract. 

•  Reviewed a sample of contracts with unbilled revenues to identify 
possible  delays  in  achieving  milestones,  which  require  change 
in  estimated  efforts  to  complete  the  remaining  performance 
obligations. 

•  Performed  analytical  procedures  and  test  of  details  for 

reasonableness of incurred and estimated efforts.

Accuracy  of  revenue  recognition 
in  respect  of  fixed  price  contracts 
involves critical estimates.
Estimated effort is a critical estimate 
to determine revenues and liabilities 
for onerous obligations. This estimate 
has  a  high  inherent  uncertainty  as  it 
requires  consideration  of  progress 
of  the  contract,  efforts  incurred  till 
date and efforts required to complete 
the  remaining  contract  performance 
obligations.

Evaluation of uncertain tax positions. 
The Group has material uncertain tax 
positions  including  matters  under 
dispute  which  involves  significant 
judgment  to  determine  the  possible 
outcome of these disputes.
Refer  Notes  3(xvii)  and  35to  the 
Consolidated Financial Statements.

Auditor’s Response
Principal Audit Procedures
Obtained details of completed tax assessments and demands during 
the year ended March 31, 2019 from management. We involved our 
internal  tax  experts  to  challenge  the  management’s  underlying 
assumptions in estimating the tax provision and the possible outcome 
of  the  disputes.  Our  internal  tax  experts  also  considered  legal 
precedence and other rulings in evaluating management’s position on 
these uncertain tax positions. Additionally, we considered the effect 
of new information in respect of uncertain tax positions as at April 1, 
2018 to evaluate whether any change was required to management’s 
position on these uncertainties.

 TheCompany’s  Board  of  Directors  are  responsible 
for  the  other  information.  The  other  information 
comprises  the  information  included  in  the 
Board’sreport and the Corporate Governance Report, 
but  does  not  include  the  consolidated  financial 
statements,  standalone  financial  statements  and 
our auditor’s report thereon.

 Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements 
does not cover the other information and we do not 
express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

 In  connection  with  our  audit  of  the  consolidated 
financial  statements,  our  responsibility  is  to  read 
the  other  information,  and  consider  whether  the 
other information is materially inconsistent with the 
consolidated financial statements or our knowledge 
obtained during the course of our audit or otherwise 
appears to be materially misstated. 

 If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude 
that there is a material misstatement of this other 
information, we are required to report that fact. We 
have nothing to report in this regard.

Management’s  Responsibility  for  the  Consolidated 
Financial Statements

The Company’s Board of Directors areresponsible for the 
matters stated in section 134(5) of the Act with respect to 
the preparation of these consolidated financial statements 
that give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial 
position,  consolidated  financial  performance  including 
other  comprehensive  income,  consolidated  changes 
in  equity  and  consolidated  cash  flows  of  the  Group 
in  accordance  with  the  Ind  AS  and  other  accounting 
principles  generally  accepted  in  India.  The  respective 
Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group 
are responsible for maintenance of adequate accounting 
records in accordance with the provisions of the Act for 
safeguarding the assets of the Group and for preventing 
and  detecting  frauds  and  other  irregularities;  selection 

and  application  of  appropriate  accounting  policies; 
making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and 
prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of 
adequate internal financial controls, that were operating 
effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness 
of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and 
presentation of the financial statements that give a true 
and  fair  view  and  are  free  from  material  misstatement, 
whether due to fraud or error, which have been used for 
the purpose of preparation of the consolidated financial 
statements by the Directors of the Company, as aforesaid. 

In  preparing  the  consolidated  financial  statements,  the 
respective Board of Directors of the companies included 
in the Group are responsible for assessing the ability of 
the Group to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as 
applicable, matters related to going concern and using the 
going concern basis of accounting unless the management 
either intends to liquidate or cease operations, or has no 
realistic alternative but to do so.

The  respective  Board  of  Directors  of  the  companies 
included in the Group are also responsible for overseeing 
the financial reporting process of the Group. 

Auditor’s Responsibility for the Audit of the Consolidated 
Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about 
whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole 
are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud 
or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our 
opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, 
but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance 
with SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it 
exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are 
considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they 
could reasonably be expected to influence the economic 
decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated 
financial statements. 

As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise 
professional  judgment  and  maintain  professional 
skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

procedures  responsive  to  those  risks,  and  obtain 
audit  evidence  that  is  sufficient  and  appropriate 
to  provide  a  basis  for  our  opinion.  The  risk  of  not 
detecting  a  material  misstatement  resulting  from 
fraud  is  higher  than  for  one  resulting  from  error, 
as  fraud  may  involve  collusion,  forgery,  intentional 
omissions,  misrepresentations,  or  the  override  of 
internal control.

 Obtain  an  understanding  of  internal  financial 
control  relevant  to  the  audit  in  order  to  design 
audit  procedures  that  are  appropriate  in  the 
circumstances. Under section 143(3)(i) of the Act, we 
are  also  responsible  for  expressing  our  opinion  on 
whether the Company and its subsidiary companies 
which  are  companies  incorporated  in  India,  has 
adequate internal financial controls system in place 
and the operating effectiveness of such controls.

 Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies 
used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates 
and related disclosures made by the management.

 Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s 
use  of  the  going  concern  basis  of  accounting  and, 
based  on  the  audit  evidence  obtained,  whether  a 
material  uncertainty  exists  related  to  events  or 
conditions  that  may  cast  significant  doubt  on  the 
ability of the Group to continue as a going concern. If 
we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are 
required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to 
the related disclosures in the consolidated financial 
statements  or,  if  such  disclosures  are  inadequate, 
to  modify  our  opinion.  Our  conclusions  are  based 
on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our 
auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions 
may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going 
concern.

 Evaluate  the  overall  presentation,  structure  and 
content  of  the  consolidated  financial  statements, 
including  the  disclosures,  and  whether  the 
consolidated  financial  statements  represent  the 
underlying transactions and events in a manner that 
achieves fair presentation.

 Obtain  sufficient  appropriate  audit  evidence 
regarding  the  financial  information  of  the  entities 
and business activities within Group to express an 
opinion on the consolidated financial statements.

Materiality  is  the  magnitude  of  misstatements  in  the 
consolidated financial statements that, individually or in 
aggregate, makes it probable that the economic decisions 
of a reasonably knowledgeable user of the consolidated 

210

financial  statements  may  be  influenced.  We  consider 
quantitative  materiality  and  qualitative  factors  in  (i) 
planning the scope of our audit work and in evaluating the 
results of our work; and (ii) to evaluate the effect of any 
identified  misstatements  in  the  consolidated  financial 
statements.

We  communicate  with  those  charged  with  governance 
of  the  Company  regarding,  among  other  matters,  the 
planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit 
findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal 
control that we identify during our audit.

We  also  provide  those  charged  with  governance  with 
a  statement  that  we  have  complied  with  relevant 
ethical  requirements  regarding  independence,  and  to 
communicate  with  them  all  relationships  and  other 
matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our 
independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with 
governance, we determine those matters that were of most 
significance  in  the  audit  of  the  consolidated  financial 
statements of the current period and are therefore the key 
audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s 
report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure 
about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, 
we determine that a matter should not be communicated 
in our report because the adverse consequences of doing 
so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public 
interest benefits of such communication.

even date) 

Report on the Internal Financial Controls Over Financial 
Reporting under Clause (i) of Sub-section 3 of Section 143 
of the Companies Act, 2013 (“the Act”)

In conjunction with our audit of the consolidated financial 
statements of the Company as of and for the year ended 
March  31,  2019,  we  have  audited  the  internal  financial 
controls  over  financial  reporting  of  Wipro  Limited 
(hereinafter  referred  to  as  “the  Company”)  and  its 
subsidiary companies, which are companies incorporated 
in India,as of that date.

Management’s  Responsibility  for  Internal  Financial 
Controls

The Board of Directors of the company, and its subsidiary 
companies,  which  are  companies  incorporated  in  India, 
are responsible for establishing and maintaining internal 
financial  controls  based  on  the  internal  control  over 
financial reporting criteria established by the respective 
Companies  considering  the  essential  components  of 
internal  control  stated  in  the  Guidance  Note  on  Audit 
of  Internal  Financial  Controls  Over  Financial  Reporting 
issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India 
(“the  ICAI”).  These  responsibilities  include  the  design, 
implementation  and  maintenance  of  adequate  internal 
financial  controls  that  were  operating  effectively  for 
ensuring the orderly and efficient conduct of its business, 
including  adherence  to  the  respective  company’s 
policies,  the  safeguarding  of  its  assets,  the  prevention 
and  detection  of  frauds  and  errors,  the  accuracy  and 
completeness of the accounting records, and the timely 
preparation of reliable financial information, as required 
under the Act.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the internal 
financial controls over financial reporting of the Company, 
and  its  subsidiary  companies,  which  are  companies 
incorporated in India, based on our audit. We conducted 
our audit in accordance with the Guidance Note on Audit 
of  Internal  Financial  Controls  Over  Financial  Reporting 
(the “Guidance Note”) issued by the Institute of Chartered 
Accountants  of  India  and  the  Standards  on  Auditing, 
prescribed under Section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 
2013,  to  the  extent  applicable  to  an  audit  of  internal 
financial controls. Those Standards and the Guidance Note 
require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan 
and  perform  the  audit  to  obtain  reasonable  assurance 
about whether adequate internal financial controls over 

financial reporting was established and maintained and if 
such controls operated effectively in all material respects.

Our audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit 
evidence  about  the  adequacy  of  the  internal  financial 
controls  system  over  financial  reporting  and  their 
operating  effectiveness.  Our  audit  of  internal  financial 
controls  over  financial  reporting  included  obtaining 
an  understanding  of  internal  financial  controls  over 
financial  reporting,  assessing  the  risk  that  a  material 
weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design 
and operating effectiveness of internal control based on 
the  assessed  risk. The  procedures  selected  depend  on 
the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the 
risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, 
whether due to fraud or error.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained, is 
sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit 
opinion  on  the  internal  financial  controls  system  over 
financial  reporting  of  the  Company,  and  its  subsidiary 
companies which are companies incorporated in India.

Meaning  of  Internal  Financial  Controls  Over  Financial 
Reporting

A  company’s  internal  financial  control  over  financial 
reporting  is  a  process  designed  to  provide  reasonable 
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting 
and the preparation of financial statements for external 
purposes  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted 
accounting  principles.  A  company’s  internal  financial 
control  over  financial  reporting  includes  those  policies 
and  procedures  that  (1)  pertain  to  the  maintenance  of 
records  that,  in  reasonable  detail,  accurately  and  fairly 
reflect  the  transactions  and  dispositions  of  the  assets 
of  the  company;  (2)  provide  reasonable  assurance 
that  transactions  are  recorded  as  necessary  to  permit 
preparation  of  financial  statements  in  accordance  with 
generally  accepted  accounting  principles,  and  that 
receipts and expenditures of the company are being made 
only  in  accordance  with  authorisations  of  management 
and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable 
assurance  regarding  prevention  or  timely  detection 
of  unauthorised  acquisition,  use,  or  disposition  of  the 
company’s assets that could have a material effect on the 
financial statements.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Financial Controls Over 
Financial Reporting

Because of the inherent limitations of internal financial 
controls over financial reporting, including the possibility 
of collusion or improper management override of controls, 
material misstatements due to error or fraud may occur 

212

Consolidated Financial Statements under Ind ASWipro Limitedand not be detected. Also, projections of any evaluation 
of the internal financial controls over financial reporting 
to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal 
financial  control  over  financial  reporting  may  become 
inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the 
degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may 
deteriorate.

Opinion

In our opinion to the best of our information and according 
to  the  explanations  given  to  us,  the  Company,  and  its 
subsidiary companies, which are companies incorporated 
in India, have, in all material respects, an adequate internal 
financial  controls  system  over  financial  reporting  and 
such  internal  financial  controls  over  financial  reporting 
were  operating  effectively  as  at  March  31,  2019,  based 
on,  theinternal  control  over  financial  reporting  criteria 
established by the respective companies considering the 

essential  components  of  internal  control  stated  in  the 
Guidance Note on Audit of Internal Financial Controls Over 
Financial Reporting issued by the Institute of Chartered 
Accountants of India.

(` in millions, except share and per share data, unless otherwise stated)

1. 

The Company overview

together with its subsidiaries and controlled trusts 
(collectively, “the Company” or the “Group”) is a global 
information technology (IT), consulting and business 
process services (BPS) company. 

Wipro is a public limited company incorporated and 
domiciled  in  India.  The  address  of  its  registered

up precisely to the totals and percentages may not 
precisely reflect the absolute figures. Previous year 
figures have been regrouped/re-arranged, wherever 
necessary.

(ii)  Basis of measurement

accrual basis, except for the following material items 
which have been measured at fair value as required 
by relevant Ind AS:-

a.  Derivative financial instruments; 

b.  Financial  instruments  classified  as  fair  value 
through  other  comprehensive  income  or  fair 
value through profit or loss;

These  consolidated  financial  statements  were 
authorised  for  issue  by  the  Board  of  Directors  on 
June 6, 2019.

c.

less fair value of plan assets; and 

2.  Basis  of  preparation  of  consolidated  financial 

d.  Contingent consideration.

statements 

(i)  Statement of compliance and basis of preparation

The consolidated financial statements are prepared 
in  accordance  with  Indian  Accounting  Standards 
(“Ind AS”), the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013 
(“the Companies Act”), as applicable and guidelines 
issued by the Securities and Exchange Board of India 
(“SEBI”). The Ind AS are prescribed under Section 133 
of the Act read with Rule 3 of the Companies (Indian 
Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 and Companies 
(Indian  Accounting  Standards)  Amendment  Rules, 
2016.

Accounting policies have been applied consistently 
to all periods presented in these financial statements 
except for new accounting standards adopted by the 
company.

The  consolidated  financial  statements  correspond 
to the classification provisions contained in Ind AS 
1, “Presentation of Financial Statements”. For clarity, 
various  items  are  aggregated  in  the  statements 
of  profit  and  loss  and  balance  sheet. These  items 
are  disaggregated  separately  in  the  notes  to  the 
consolidated financial statements, where applicable. 

All  amounts  included  in  the  consolidated  financial 
statements  are  reported  in  Indian  rupees  (`  in 
millions)  except  share  and  per  share  data,  unless 
otherwise stated. Due to rounding off, the numbers 
presented  throughout  the  document  may  not  add 

(iii)  Use of estimates and judgment 

The  preparation  of  the  consolidated  financial 
statements  in  conformity  with  Ind  AS  requires 
management  to  make  judgments,  estimates  and 
assumptions that affect the application of accounting 
policies  and  the  reported  amounts  of  assets, 
liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may 
differ from those estimates. 

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed 
on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates 
are recognised in the period in which the estimates 
are  revised  and  in  any  future  periods  affected.  In 
particular,  information  about  significant  areas  of 
estimation,  uncertainty  and  critical  judgments  in 
applying  accounting  policies  that  have  the  most 
significant effect on the amounts recognised in the 
consolidated financial statements are included in the 
following notes:

a)  Revenue  recognition:  The  Company  applies 
judgement to determine whether each product 
or services promised to a customer are capable 
of being distinct, and are distinct in the context 
of  the  contract,  if  not,  the  promised  product 
or  services  are  combined  and  accounted  as  a 
single  performance  obligation.  The  Company 
allocates  the  arrangement  consideration  to 
separately identifiable performance obligation 
deliverables based on their relative stand-alone 
selling  price.  In  cases  where  the  Company  is 

219

unable  to  determine  the  stand-alone  selling 
price  the  company  uses  expected  cost-plus 
margin  approach  in  estimating  the  stand-
alone  selling  price.  The  Company  uses  the 
percentage  of  completion  method  using  the 
input  (cost  expended)  method  to  measure 
progress  towards  completion  in  respect  of 
fixed price contracts. Percentage of completion 
method  accounting  relies  on  estimates  of 
total  expected  contract  revenue  and  costs. 
This  method  is  followed  when  reasonably 
dependable estimates of the revenues and costs 
applicable to various elements of the contract 
can be made. Key factors that are reviewed in 
estimating the future costs to complete include 
estimates of future labor costs and productivity 
efficiencies.  Because  the  financial  reporting 
of  these  contracts  depends  on  estimates 
that  are  assessed  continually  during  the 
term  of  these  contracts,  revenue  recognised, 
profit  and  timing  of  revenue  for  remaining 
performance obligations are subject to revisions 
as the contract progresses to completion. When 
estimates indicate that a loss will be incurred, 
the  loss  is  provided  for  in  the  period  in  which 
the loss becomes probable. Volume discounts 
are  recorded  as  a  reduction  of  revenue.  When 
the amount of discount varies with the levels of 
revenue, volume discount is recorded based on 
estimate of future revenue from the customer

Impairment  testing:  Goodwill  and  intangible 
assets  with  infinite  useful  life  recognised  on 
business combination are tested for impairment 
at  least  annually  and  when  events  occur  or 
changes  in  circumstances  indicate  that  the 
recoverable  amount  of  the  asset  or  the  cash 
generating  unit  to  which  these  pertain  is  less 
than the carrying value. The recoverable amount 
of  the  asset  or  the  cash  generating  units  is 
higher of value-in-use and fair value less cost 
of disposal. The calculation of value in use of a 
cash generating unit involves use of significant 
estimates  and  assumptions  which  includes 
turnover,  growth  rates  and  net  margins  used 
to  calculate  projected  future  cash  flows,  risk-
adjusted  discount  rate,  future  economic  and 
market conditions. 

Income  taxes:  The  major  tax  jurisdictions  for 
the  Company  are  India  and  the  United  States 
of America. Significant judgments are involved 
in  determining  the  provision  for  income  taxes 
including judgment on whether tax positions are 
probable of being sustained in tax assessments. 
A tax assessment can involve complex issues, 
which can only be resolved over extended time 
periods. 

d)  Deferred  taxes:  Deferred  tax  is  recorded  on 
temporary  differences  between  the  tax  bases 
of  assets  and  liabilities  and  their  carrying 
amounts, at the rates that have been enacted 
or substantively enacted at the reporting date. 
The ultimate realisation of deferred tax assets 
is  dependent  upon  the  generation  of  future 
taxable  profits  during  the  periods  in  which 
those temporary differences and tax loss carry-
forwards  become  deductible.  The  Company 
considers the expected reversal of deferred tax 
liabilities and projected future taxable income 
in  making  this  assessment.  The  amount  of 
the deferred tax assets considered realisable, 
however,  could  be  reduced  in  the  near  term  if 
estimates of future taxable income during the 
carry-forward period are reduced. 

e)  Business  combination:  In  accounting  for 
business  combinations,  judgment  is  required 
in identifying whether an identifiable intangible 
asset is to be recorded separately from goodwill. 
Additionally,  estimating  the  acquisition  date 
fair  value  of  the  identifiable  assets  (including 
useful  life  estimates)  and  liabilities  acquired, 
and contingent consideration assumed involves 
management  judgment. These  measurements 
are  based  on  information  available  at  the 
acquisition date and are based on expectations 
and  assumptions  that  have  been  deemed 
reasonable by management. Changes in these 
judgments,  estimates,  and  assumptions  can 
materially affect the results of operations. 

f)  Defined  benefit  plans  and  compensated 
absences: The cost of the defined benefit plans, 
compensated absences and the present value 
of  the  defined  benefit  obligations  are  based 
on actuarial valuation using the projected unit 
credit  method.  An  actuarial  valuation  involves 
making  various  assumptions  that  may  differ 
from actual developments in the future. These 
include the determination of the discount rate, 
future salary increases and mortality rates. Due 
to  the  complexities  involved  in  the  valuation 
and  its  long-term  nature,  a  defined  benefit 
obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these 
assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at 
each reporting date. 

g)  Expected  credit  losses  on  financial  assets: 
The  impairment  provisions  of  financial  assets 
and contract assets are based on assumptions 
about  risk  of  default  and  expected  timing  of 
collection.  The  Company  uses  judgment  in 
making  these  assumptions  and  selecting  the 
inputs  to  the  impairment  calculation,  based 
on  the  Company’s  past  history  of  collections,

at the end of each reporting period. 

hedging  instruments  designated  as  cash  flow 
hedges  involves  significant  estimates  relating 
to the occurrence of forecast transaction. 

h)  Measurement of fair value of non-marketable 
equity  investments:  These  instruments  are 
initially  recorded  at  cost  and  subsequently 
measured at fair value. Fair value of investments 
is  determined  using  the  market  and  income 
approaches. The market approach includes the 
use of financial metrics and ratios of comparable 
companies,  such  as  revenue,  earnings, 
comparable  performance  multiples,  recent 
financial rounds and the level of marketability 
of the investments. The selection of comparable 
companies  requires  management  judgment 
and is based on a number of factors, including 
comparable  company  sizes,  growth  rates,  and 
development  stages.  The  income  approach 
includes the use of discounted cash flow model, 
which requires significant estimates regarding 
the  investees’  revenue,  costs,  and  discount 
rates  based  on  the  risk  profile  of  comparable 
companies.  Estimates  of  revenue  and  costs 
are  developed  using  available  historical  and 
forecast data.

j) 

Useful lives of property, plant and equipment: 
The  Company  depreciates  property,  plant 
and  equipment  on  a  straight-line  basis  over 
estimated useful lives of the assets. The charge 
in  respect  of  periodic  depreciation  is  derived 
based  on  an  estimate  of  an  asset’s  expected 
useful  life  and  the  expected  residual  value 
at  the  end  of  its  life.  The  lives  are  based  on 
historical  experience  with  similar  assets  as 
well as anticipation of future events, which may 
impact their life, such as changes in technology. 
The  estimated  useful  life  is  reviewed  at  least 
annually.

Useful lives of intangible assets: The Company 
amortises  intangible  assets  on  a  straight-line 
basis over estimated useful lives of the assets. 
The useful life is estimated based on a number 
of factors including the effects of obsolescence, 
demand,  competition  and  other  economic 
factors such as the stability of the industry and 
known technological advances and the level of 
maintenance  expenditures  required  to  obtain 
the expected future cash flows from the assets. 
The  estimated  useful  life  is  reviewed  at  least 
annually.

k)  Other estimates: The share-based compensation 
expense is determined based on the Company’s 
estimate  of  equity  instruments  that  will 
eventually  vest.  Fair  valuation  of  derivative 

3.  Significant accounting policies 

(i)  Basis of consolidation 

Subsidiaries and controlled trusts

The Company determines the basis of control in line 
with the requirements of Ind AS 110, Consolidated 
Financial  Statements.  Subsidiaries  and  controlled 
trusts are entities controlled by the Group. The Group 
controls an entity when the parent has power over 
the entity, it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable 
returns  from  its  involvement  with  the  entity  and 
has  the  ability  to  affect  those  returns  through  its 
power  over  the  entity. The  financial  statements  of 
subsidiaries  and  controlled  trusts  are  included  in 
the consolidated financial statements from the date 
on which control commences until the date on which 
control ceases.

All intra-Group balances, transactions, income and 
expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation. 

Non-controlling interest

Non-controlling interests in the net assets (excluding 
goodwill) of consolidated subsidiaries are identified 
separately  from  the  Company’s  equity. The  interest 
of  non-controlling  shareholders  may  be  initially 
measured either at fair value or at the non-controlling 
interest’s  proportionate  share  of  the  fair  value  of 
the  acquiree’s  identifiable  net  assets.  The  choice 
of measurement basis is made on an acquisition to 
acquisition  basis.  Subsequent  to  acquisition,  the 
carrying  amount  of  non-controlling  interest  is  the 
amount of those interests at initial recognition plus 
the  non-controlling  interest’s  share  of  subsequent 
changes  in  equity.  Total  comprehensive  income  is 
attributed to non-controlling interests even if it results 
in the non-controlling interest having a deficit balance. 

Investments accounted for using the equity method

Investments accounted for using the equity method 
are  entities  in  respect  of  which,  the  Company  has 
significant  influence,  but  not  control,  over  the 
financial and operating policies. Generally, a Company 
has  a  significant  influence  if  it  holds  between  20 
and 50 percent of the voting power of another entity. 
Investments in such entities are accounted for using 
the equity method and are initially recognised at cost. 
The  carrying  amount  of  investment  is  increased/ 
decreased to recognised investors share of profit or 
loss of the investee after the acquisition date.

Non-current assets and disposal groups held for sale

Assets  of  disposal  groups  that  is  available  for 

221

Consolidated Financial Statements under Ind ASAnnual Report 2018-19  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
immediate sale and where the sale is highly probable 
of being completed within one year from the date of 
classification are considered and classified as assets 
held for sale. Non-current assets and disposal groups 
held for sale are measured at the lower of carrying 
amount and fair value less costs to sell.

(ii)  Functional and presentation currency 

Items included in the financial statements of each 
of  the  Company’s  entities  are  measured  using  the 
currency  of  the  primary  economic  environment  in 
which  these  entities  operate  (i.e.  the “functional 
currency”). These consolidated financial statements 
are presented in Indian rupees, which is the functional 
currency of the Company. 

differences  arising,  if  any,  are  recognised 
in  other  comprehensive  income  and  held  in 
foreign  currency  translation  reserve  (FCTR),  a 
component of equity, except to the extent that 
the  translation difference is  allocated  to non-
controlling  interest.  When  a  foreign  operation 
is disposed of, the relevant amount recognised 
in  FCTR  is  transferred  to  the  consolidated 
statement  of  profit  and  loss  as  part  of  the 
profit  or  loss  on  disposal.  Goodwill  and  fair 
value adjustments arising on the acquisition of 
a  foreign  operation  are  treated  as  assets  and 
liabilities of the foreign operation and translated 
at the exchange rate prevailing at the reporting 
date. 

(iii)  Foreign currency transactions and translation 

c)  Others 

a)  Transactions and balances 

Transactions in foreign currency are translated 
into the respective functional currencies using 
the  exchange  rates  prevailing  at  the  date  of 
the  transaction.  Foreign  exchange  gains  and 
losses  resulting  from  the  settlement  of  such 
transactions  and  from  translation  at  the 
exchange rates prevailing at the reporting date 
of monetary assets and liabilities denominated 
in  foreign  currencies  are  recognised  in  the 
consolidated statement of profit and loss and 
reported within foreign exchange gains/(losses), 
net, within results of operating activities except 
when deferred in other comprehensive income 
as qualifying cash flow hedges and qualifying net 
investment hedges. Gains/(losses), net, relating 
to  translation  or  settlement  of  borrowings 
denominated  in  foreign  currency  are  reported 
within  finance  costs.  Non-monetary  assets 
and liabilities denominated in foreign currency 
and measured at historical cost are translated 
at  the  exchange  rate  prevalent  at  the  date  of 
transaction.  Translation  differences  on  non-
monetary  financial  assets  measured  at  fair 
value  at  the  reporting  date,  such  as  equities 
classified as financial instruments measured at 
fair value through other comprehensive income 
are included in other comprehensive income, net 
of taxes. 

b)  Foreign operations 

For  the  purpose  of  presenting  consolidated 
financial statements, the assets and liabilities 
of  the  Company’s  foreign  operations  that 
have  a  functional  currency  other  than  Indian 
rupees are translated into Indian rupees using 
exchange rates prevailing at the reporting date. 
Income and expense items are translated at the 
average exchange rates for the period. Exchange 

Foreign  currency  differences  arising  on  the 
translation or settlement of a financial liability 
designated  as  a  hedge  of  a  net  investment 
in  a  foreign  operation  are  recognised  in 
other  comprehensive  income  and  presented 
within  equity  in  the  FCTR  to  the  extent  the 
hedge  is  effective. To  the  extent  the  hedge  is 
ineffective, such differences are recognised in 
the consolidated statement of profit and loss. 

When  the  hedged  part  of  a  net  investment  is 
disposed  of,  the  relevant  amount  recognised 
in  FCTR  is  transferred  to  the  consolidated 
statement of profit and loss as part of the profit 
or loss on disposal. Foreign currency differences 
arising  from  translation  of  intercompany 
receivables  or  payables  relating  to  foreign 
operations, the settlement of which is neither 
planned nor likely in the foreseeable future, are 
considered  to  form  part  of  net  investment  in 
foreign operation and are recognised in FCTR. 

(iv)  Financial instruments 

A)  Non-derivative financial instruments: 

Non derivative financial instruments consist of:

• 

financial  assets,  which  include  cash  and 
cash  equivalents,  trade  receivables,  unbilled 
receivables, finance lease receivables, employee 
and  other  advances,  investments  in  equity 
and  debt  securities  and  eligible  current  and 
non-current  assets;  Financial  assets  are 
derecognised  when  substantial  risks  and 
rewards of ownership of the financial asset have 
been  transferred.  In  cases  where  substantial 
risks and rewards of ownership of the financial 
assets  are  neither  transferred  nor  retained, 
financial  assets  are  derecognised  only  when 
the Company has not retained control over the 
financial asset. 

222

Consolidated Financial Statements under Ind ASWipro Limited 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
• 

financial liabilities, which include long and short-
term  loans  and  borrowings,  bank  overdrafts, 
trade payables, eligible current and non-current 
liabilities.

Non derivative financial instruments are recognised 
initially at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, 
non-derivative financial instruments are measured as 
described below: 

a.  Cash and cash equivalents 

The  Company’s  cash  and  cash  equivalents 
consist  of  cash  on  hand  and  in  banks  and 
demand  deposits  with  banks,  which  can  be 
withdrawn at any time, without prior notice or 
penalty on the principal. 

For  the  purposes  of  the  cash  flow  statement, 
cash  and  cash  equivalents  include  cash  on 
hand, in banks and demand deposits with banks, 
net  of  outstanding  bank  overdrafts  that  are 
repayable on demand and are considered part 
of the Company’s cash management system. In 
the consolidated balance sheet, bank overdrafts 
are presented under borrowings within current 
liabilities. 

b. 

Investments 

Financial  instruments  measured  at  amortised 
cost: 

Debt instruments that meet the following criteria 
are  measured  at  amortised  cost  (except  for 
debt  instruments  that  are  designated  at  fair 
value  through  Profit  or  Loss  (FVTPL)  on  initial 
recognition): 

• 

• 

the asset is held within a business model 
whose objective is to hold assets in order 
to collect contractual cash flows; and 

the contractual terms of the instrument give 
rise on specified dates to cash flows that 
are solely payment of principal and interest 
on the principal amount outstanding. 

Financial  instruments  measured  at  fair  value 
through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI): 

Debt  instruments  that  meet  the  following 
criteria  are  measured  at  fair  value  through 
other  comprehensive  income  (FVTOCI)  (except 
for debt instruments that are designated at fair 
value  through  Profit  or  Loss  (FVTPL)  on  initial 
recognition): 

• 

the asset is held within a business model 
whose  objective  is  achieved  both  by 
collecting  contractual  cash  flows  and 
selling the financial asset; and 

• 

the contractual terms of the instrument give 
rise on specified dates to cash flows that 
are solely payment of principal and interest 
on the principal amount outstanding. 

Interest income is recognised in the consolidated 
statement  of  profit  and  loss  for  FVTOCI  debt 
instruments.  Other  changes  in  fair  value 
of  FVTOCI  financial  assets  are  recognised 
in  other  comprehensive  income.  When  the 
investment is disposed of, the cumulative gain 
or  loss  previously  accumulated  in  reserves  is 
transferred  to  the  consolidated  statement  of 
profit and loss. 

Financial  instruments  measured  at  fair  value 
through profit or loss (FVTPL): 

Instruments  that  do  not  meet  the  amortised 
cost or FVTOCI criteria are measured at FVTPL. 
Financial assets at FVTPL are measured at fair 
value at the end of each reporting period, with 
any gains or losses arising on re-measurement 
recognised  in  consolidated  statement  of 
profit and loss. The gain or loss on disposal is 
recognised  in  the  consolidated  statement  of 
profit and loss. 

Interest income is recognised in the consolidated 
statement  of  profit  and  loss  for  FVTPL  debt 
instruments.  Dividend  on  financial  assets  at 
FVTPL is recognised when the Group’s right to 
receive dividend is established. 

Investments in equity instruments designated to 
be classified as FVTOCI: 

The Company carries certain equity instruments 
which  are  not  held  for  trading.  The  Company 
has  elected  the  FVTOCI  irrevocable  option 
for  these  instruments.  Movements  in  fair 
value  of  these  investments  are  recognised 
in  other  comprehensive  income  and  the  gain 
or  loss  is  not  transferred  to  consolidated 
statement of profit and loss on disposal of these 
investments. Dividends from these investments 
are  recognised  in  the  consolidated  statement 
of profit and loss when the Company’s right to 
receive dividends is established. 

c.  Other financial assets: 

Other  financial  assets  are  non-derivative 
financial  assets  with  fixed  or  determinable 
payments  that  are  not  quoted  in  an  active 
market. They are presented as current assets, 
except for those maturing later than 12 months 
after  the  reporting  date  which  are  presented 
as  non-current  assets.  These  are  initially 
recognised  at  fair  value  and  subsequently 

223

measured at amortised cost using the effective 
interest  method,  less  any  impairment  losses. 
These  comprise  trade  receivables,  unbilled 
revenues and other assets. 

d. 

Trade and other payables 

Trade and other payables are initially recognised 
at  fair  value,  and  subsequently  carried  at 
amortised  cost  using  the  effective  interest 
method.  For  these  financial  instruments,  the 
carrying amounts approximate fair value due to 
the  short  term  maturity  of  these  instruments. 
Contingent  consideration  recognised  in  the 
business combination is subsequently measured 
at fair value through profit or loss.

B)  Derivative financial instruments 

The  Company  is  exposed  to  foreign  currency 
fluctuations  on  foreign  currency  assets,  liabilities, 
net investment in foreign operations and forecasted 
cash flows denominated in foreign currency. 

The Company limits the effect of foreign exchange rate 
fluctuations by following established risk management 
policies including the use of derivatives. The Company 
enters into derivative financial instruments where the 
counterparty is primarily a bank. 

Derivatives  are  recognised  and  measured  at  fair 
value. Attributable transaction costs are recognised 
in consolidated statement of profit and loss as cost. 

Subsequent to initial recognition, derivative financial 
instruments are measured as described below: 

a.  Cash flow hedges 

Changes in the fair value of the derivative hedging 
instrument designated as a cash flow hedge are 
recognised in other comprehensive income and 
held in cash flow hedging reserve, net of taxes, 
a  component  of  equity,  to  the  extent  that  the 
hedge is effective. To the extent that the hedge is 
ineffective, changes in fair value are recognised 
in the consolidated statement of profit and loss 
and  reported  within  foreign  exchange  gains/
(losses),  net  within  results  from  operating 
activities.  If  the  hedging  instrument  no  longer 
meets  the  criteria  for  hedge  accounting,  then 
hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. 
If  the  hedging  instrument  expires  or  is  sold, 
terminated  or  exercised,  the  cumulative  gain 
or  loss  on  the  hedging  instrument  recognised 
in  cash  flow  hedging  reserve  till  the  period 
the  hedge  was  effective  remains  in  cash  flow 
hedging reserve until the forecasted transaction 
occurs. The cumulative gain or loss previously 
recognised  in  the  cash  flow  hedging  reserve 
is  transferred  to  the  consolidated  statement 

224

of  profit  and  loss  upon  the  occurrence  of  the 
related forecasted transaction. If the forecasted 
transaction is no longer expected to occur, such 
cumulative balance is immediately recognised 
in the consolidated statement of profit and loss. 

b.   Hedges of net investment in foreign operations 

The  Company  designates  derivative  financial 
instruments  as  hedges  of  net  investments 
in  foreign  operations.  The  Company  has  also 
designated  a  foreign  currency  denominated 
borrowing as a hedge of net investment in foreign 
operations.  Changes  in  the  fair  value  of  the 
derivative hedging instruments and gains/losses 
on translation or settlement of foreign currency 
denominated borrowings designated as a hedge 
of  net  investment  in  foreign  operations  are 
recognised in other comprehensive income and 
presented within equity in the FCTR to the extent 
that  the  hedge  is  effective. To  the  extent  that 
the  hedge  is  ineffective,  changes  in  fair  value 
are  recognised  in  the  consolidated  statement 
of  profit  and  loss  and  reported  within  foreign 
exchange gains/(losses), net within results from 
operating activities. 

c.  Others 

Changes in fair value of foreign currency derivative 
instruments  neither  designated  as  cash  flow 
hedges nor hedges of net investment in foreign 
operations  are  recognised  in  the  consolidated 
statement of profit and loss and reported within 
foreign  exchange  gains/(losses),  net  within 
results from operating activities. Changes in fair 
value  and  gains/(losses),  net,  on  settlement  of 
foreign currency derivative instruments relating 
to borrowings, which have not been designated 
as hedges are recorded in finance costs. 

C)  Derecognition of financial instruments 

The Company derecognises a financial asset when the 
contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial 
asset expire or it transfers the financial asset and the 
transfer qualifies for derecognition under Ind AS 109. 
If the Company retains substantially all the risks and 
rewards of a transferred financial asset, the Company 
continues to recognise the financial asset and also 
recognises a borrowing for the proceeds received. A 
financial liability (or a part of a financial liability) is 
derecognised from the group’s balance sheet when 
the obligation specified in the contract is discharged 
or cancelled or expires. 

(v)  Equity and share capital 

a)  Share capital and Securities premium reserve

The authorised share capital of the Company as at 

Consolidated Financial Statements under Ind ASWipro Limited

Every  holder  of  the  equity  shares,  as  reflected  in 
the  records  of  the  Company  as  of  the  date  of  the 
shareholder meeting shall have one vote in respect 
of each share held for all matters submitted to vote 
in the shareholder meeting. 

b)  Shares held by controlled trust (Treasury shares)

The exchange differences arising from the translation 
of  financial  statements  of  foreign  subsidiaries, 
differences  arising  from  translation  of  long-term 
inter-company  receivables  or  payables  relating  to 
foreign  operations  settlement  of  which  is  neither 
planned nor likely in the foreseeable future, changes 
in fair value of the derivative hedging instruments and 
gains/losses on translation or settlement of foreign 
currency  denominated  borrowings  designated  as 
hedge  of  net  investment  in  foreign  operations  are 
recognised  in  other  comprehensive  income,  net  of 
taxes and presented within equity in the FCTR. 

i) 

Cash flow hedging reserve 

Changes in fair value of derivative hedging instruments 
designated  and  effective  as  a  cash  flow  hedge  are 
recognised  in  other  comprehensive  income  (net  of 
taxes),  and  presented  within  equity  as  cash  flow 
hedging reserve. 

c)   Capital Reserve

j) 

Other reserves 

Capital Reserve amounting to `1,139 (March 31, 2018: 
` 1,139) is not freely available for distribution.

d)   Capital Redemption Reserve

(March  31,  2018:  `  781)  is  not  freely  available  for 
distribution.

e)  Retained earnings 

Retained  earnings  comprises  of  the  Company’s 
undistributed earnings after taxes which is not freely 
available for distribution.

f) 

Share options outstanding account

The  Share  options  outstanding  account  is  used 
to  record  the  value  of  equity-settled  share  based 
payment transactions with employees. The amounts 
recorded in share options outstanding account are 
transferred  to  securities  premium  reserve  upon 
exercise  of  stock  options  and  restricted  stock  unit 
options by employees. 

g)   Special Economic Zone Re-Investment reserve 

The Special Economic Zone Re-Investment Reserve 
has been created out of profit of eligible SEZ units as 
per provisions of section 10AA (1)(ii) of the Income–
tax Act, 1961 for acquiring new plant and machinery. 
The reserve has also been utilised for other business 
purposes of SEZ units as per provisions of section 
10AA  of  the  Income-tax  Act,  1961  till  the  time  the 
said reserve is utilised completely for the purposes 
of purchasing new plant and machinery. This reserve 
is not freely available for distribution

Changes  in  the  fair  value  of  financial  instruments 
measured at fair value through other comprehensive 
income  and  actuarial  gains  and  losses  on  defined 
benefit plans are recognised in other comprehensive 
income (net of taxes), and presented within equity in 
other reserves. 

k)  Dividend 

A final dividend, including tax thereon, on common 
stock is recorded as a liability on the date of approval 
by the shareholders. An interim dividend, including 
tax thereon, is recorded as a liability on the date of 
declaration by the board of directors.

l) 

Buyback of equity shares

The buyback of equity shares and related transaction 
costs are recorded as a reduction of free reserves. 
Further,  capital  redemption  reserves  is  created  as 
an apportionment from retained earnings.

(vi)  Property, plant and equipment 

a)  Recognition and measurement 

Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost 
less  accumulated  depreciation  and  impairment 
losses,  if  any.  Cost  includes  expenditures  directly 
attributable to the acquisition of the asset. General 
and specific borrowing costs directly attributable to 
the construction of a qualifying asset are capitalised 
as part of the cost. 

Capital work-in-progress are measured at cost less 
accumulated impairment losses, if any.

b)  Depreciation 

b)  Goodwill 

The  Company  depreciates  property,  plant  and 
equipment  over  the  estimated  useful  life  on  a 
straight-line  basis  from  the  date  the  assets  are 
available  for  use.  Assets  acquired  under  finance 
lease  and  leasehold  improvements  are  amortised 
over the shorter of estimated useful life of the asset 
or the related lease term. Term licenses are amortised 
over their respective contract term. Freehold land is 
not depreciated. The estimated useful life of assets 
are  reviewed  and  where  appropriate  are  adjusted, 
annually. The estimated useful lives of assets are as 
follows: 

 Category
Buildings
Plant and machinery
Computer equipment and software
Furniture, fixtures and equipment
Vehicles

Useful life
28 to 40 years
5 to 21 years
2 to 7 years
3 to 10 years
4 to 5 years

When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment 
have different useful lives, they are accounted for as 
separate items (major components) of property, plant 
and equipment. Subsequent expenditure relating to 
property,  plant  and  equipment  is  capitalised  only 
when  it  is  probable  that  future  economic  benefits 
associated with these will flow to the Company and 
the cost of the item can be measured reliably. 

The  cost  of  property,  plant  and  equipment  not 
available for use before such date are disclosed under 
capital work-in-progress. 

(vii)  Business  combination,  Goodwill  and  Intangible 

assets 

a)  Business combination 

The  excess  of  the  cost  of  an  acquisition  over  the 
Company’s share in the fair value of the acquiree’s 
identifiable  assets,  liabilities  and  contingent 
liabilities is recognised as goodwill. If the excess is 
negative,  a  bargain  purchase  gain  is  recognised  in 
equity  as  capital  reserve.  Goodwill  is  measured  at 
cost less accumulated impairment (if any).

Goodwill associated with disposal of an operation that 
is  part  of  cash-generating  unit  is  measured  on  the 
basis of the relative values of the operation disposed 
of and the portion of the cash-generating unit retained, 
unless some other method better reflects the goodwill 
associated with the operation disposed of. 

c) 

Intangible assets 

Intangible assets acquired separately are measured 
at cost of acquisition. Intangible assets acquired in a 
business combination are measured at fair value as 
at the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, 
intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated 
amortisation and impairment losses, if any. 

The amortisation of an intangible asset with a finite 
useful life reflects the manner in which the economic 
benefit is expected to be generated and is included in 
selling and marketing expenses in the consolidated 
statement of profit and loss. 

The estimated useful life of amortisable intangibles 
are  reviewed  and  where  appropriate  are  adjusted, 
annually. The estimated useful lives of the amortisable 
intangible  assets  for  the  current  and  comparative 
periods are as follows:

Category
Customer-related intangibles
Marketing related intangibles

Useful life
5 to 15 years
3 to 5 years

Business  combinations  are  accounted  for  using 
the  purchase  (acquisition)  method. The  cost  of  an 
acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets 
transferred,  liabilities  incurred  or  assumed,  and 
equity  instruments  issued  at  the  date  of  exchange 
by  the  Company.  Identifiable  assets  acquired  and 
liabilities  and  contingent  liabilities  assumed  in  a 
business combination are measured initially at fair 
value  at  the  date  of  acquisition. Transaction  costs 
incurred  in  connection  with  a  business  acquisition 
are expensed as incurred. 

The cost of an acquisition also includes the fair value 
of any contingent consideration measured as at the 
date of acquisition. Any subsequent changes to the 
fair  value  of  contingent  consideration  classified 
as  liabilities,  other  than  measurement  period 
adjustments,  are  recognised  in  the  consolidated 
statement of profit and loss. 

(viii) Leases 

The determination of whether an arrangement is, or 
contains, a lease is based on the substance of the 
arrangement at the inception date. The arrangement 
is, or contains a lease if, fulfillment of the arrangement 
is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets 
or the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset 
or assets, even if that right is not explicitly specified 
in an arrangement. 

a)  Arrangements where the Company is the lessee 

Leases of property, plant and equipment, where the 
Company  assumes  substantially  all  the  risks  and 
rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. 
Finance  leases  are  capitalised  at  lower  of  the  fair 
value  of  the  leased  property  and  the  present  value 
of  the  minimum  lease  payments.  Lease  payments 
are apportioned between the finance charge and the 

226

Consolidated Financial Statements under Ind ASWipro Limited 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
outstanding liability. The finance charge is allocated 
to periods during the lease term at a constant periodic 
rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. 

Leases  where  the  lessor  retains  substantially  all 
the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as 
operating  leases.  Payments  made  under  operating 
leases are recognised in the consolidated statement 
of  profit  and  loss  on  a  straight-line  basis  over  the 
lease term. 

b)  Arrangements where the Company is the lessor 

In  certain  arrangements,  the  Company  recognises 
revenue  from  the  sale  of  products  given  under 
finance  leases.  The  Company  records  gross 
finance  receivables,  unearned  income  and  the 
estimated  residual  value  of  the  leased  equipment 
on consummation of such leases. Unearned income 
represents  the  excess  of  the  gross  finance  lease 
receivable  plus  the  estimated  residual  value  over 
the  sales  price  of  the  equipment.  The  Company 
recognises unearned income as finance income over 
the lease term using the effective interest method. 

(ix)  Inventories 

Inventories  are  valued  at  lower  of  cost  and  net 
realisable  value,  including  necessary  provision  for 
obsolescence. Cost is determined using the weighted 
average method. 

(x) 

Impairment 

A)  Financial assets 

The Company applies the expected credit loss model 
for recognising impairment loss on financial assets 
measured  at  amortised  cost,  debt  instruments 
classified  as  FVTOCI,  trade  receivables,  lease 
receivables,  contract  assets  and  other  financial 
assets. Expected credit loss is the difference between 
the contractual cash flows and the cash flows that 
the entity expects to receive, discounted using the 
effective interest rate. 

Loss  allowances  for  trade  receivables  and  lease 
receivables  are  measured  at  an  amount  equal  to 
lifetime expected credit loss. Lifetime expected credit 
losses are the expected credit losses that result from 
all possible default events over the expected life of a 
financial instrument. Lifetime expected credit loss is 
computed based on a provision matrix which takes in 
to account risk profiling of customers and historical 
credit loss experience adjusted for forward looking 
information.  For  other  financial  assets,  expected 
credit  loss  is  measured  at  the  amount  equal  to 
twelve months expected credit loss unless there has 
been a significant increase in credit risk from initial 
recognition,  in  which  case  those  are  measured  at 
lifetime expected credit loss. 

B)  Non-financial assets 

The  Company  assesses  long-lived  assets  such  as 
property, plant and equipment and acquired intangible 
assets for impairment whenever events or changes in 
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of 
an asset or group of assets may not be recoverable. 
If any such indication exists, the Company estimates 
the recoverable amount of the asset or group of assets. 
The recoverable amount of an asset or cash generating 
unit is the higher of its fair value less cost of disposal 
(FVLCD) and its value-in-use (VIU). The VIU of long-lived 
assets is calculated using projected future cash flows. 
FVLCD  of  a  cash  generating  unit  is  computed  using 
turnover  and  earnings  multiples.  If  the  recoverable 
amount  of  the  asset  or  the  recoverable  amount  of 
the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs 
is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount 
is reduced to its recoverable amount. The reduction 
is treated as an impairment loss and is recognised in 
the consolidated statement of profit and loss. If at the 
reporting date, there is an indication that a previously 
assessed  impairment  loss  no  longer  exists,  the 
recoverable amount is reassessed and the impairment 
losses previously recognised are reversed such that 
the asset is recognised at its recoverable amount but 
not exceeding written down value which would have 
been reported if the impairment losses had not been 
recognised initially.

Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually at 
the same time and when events occur or changes in 
circumstances indicate that the recoverable amount 
of the cash generating unit is less than its carrying 
value. The goodwill impairment test is performed at 
the level of cash-generating unit or groups of cash 
-generating units which represents the lowest level at 
which goodwill is monitored for internal management 
purposes. An impairment in respect of goodwill is not 
reversed. 

(xi)  Employee benefits 

Post-employment and pension plans 

The Group participates in various employee benefit 
plans. Pensions and other post-employment benefits 
are classified as either defined contribution plans or 
defined benefit plans. Under a defined contribution 
plan,  the  Company’s  only  obligation  is  to  pay  a 
fixed  amount  with  no  obligation  to  pay  further 
contributions  if  the  fund  does  not  hold  sufficient 
assets  to  pay  all  employee  benefits.  The  related 
actuarial  and  investment  risks  are  borne  by  the 
employee. The expenditure for defined contribution 
plans is recognised as an expense during the period 
when  the  employee  provides  service.  Under  a 
defined benefit plan, it is the Company’s obligation 
to  provide  agreed  benefits  to  the  employees.  The 

227

Consolidated Financial Statements under Ind ASAnnual Report 2018-19 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
related actuarial and investment risks are borne by 
the Company. The present value of the defined benefit 
obligations is calculated by an independent actuary 
using the projected unit credit method. 

Remeasurement comprising actuarial gains or losses 
and  the  return  on  plan  assets  (excluding  interest) 
are immediately recognised in other comprehensive 
income, net of taxes and permanently excluded from 
profit or loss. Instead net interest recognised in profit 
or  loss  is  calculated  by  applying  the  discount  rate 
used to measure the defined benefit obligation to the 
net defined benefit liability or asset. The actual return 
on the plan assets above or below the discount rate is 
recognised as part of re-measurement of net defined 
liability  or  asset  through  other  comprehensive 
income, net of taxes. 

The  Company  has  the  following  employee  benefit 
plans: 

a.  Provident fund 

Employees  receive  benefits  from  a  provident  fund, 
which  is  a  defined  benefit  plan. The  employer  and 
employees  each  make  periodic  contributions  to 
the  plan.  A  portion  of  the  contribution  is  made  to 
the approved provident fund trust managed by the 
Company  while  the  remainder  of  the  contribution 
is  made  to  the  government  administered  pension 
fund. The contributions to the trust managed by the 
Company is accounted for as a defined benefit plan 
as the Company is liable for any shortfall in the fund 
assets based on the government specified minimum 
rates of return. 

Company can no longer withdraw the offer of those 
benefits. 

e.   Short-term benefits 

Short-term  employee  benefit  obligations  are 
measured on an undiscounted basis and are recorded 
as  expense  as  the  related  service  is  provided.  A 
liability  is  recognised  for  the  amount  expected  to 
be  paid  under  short-term  cash  bonus  or  profit-
sharing  plans,  if  the  Company  has  a  present  legal 
or  constructive  obligation  to  pay  this  amount  as  a 
result of past service provided by the employee and 
the obligation can be estimated reliably. 

f. 

Compensated absences 

The  employees  of  the  Company  are  entitled  to 
compensated  absences. The  employees  can  carry 
forward  a  portion  of  the  unutilised  accumulating 
compensated  absences  and  utilise  it  in  future 
periods or receive cash at retirement or termination 
of employment. The Company records an obligation 
for compensated absences in the period in which the 
employee  renders  the  services  that  increases  this 
entitlement. The  Company  measures  the  expected 
cost  of  compensated  absences  as  the  additional 
amount that the Company expects to pay as a result 
of  the  unused  entitlement  that  has  accumulated 
at  the  end  of  the  reporting  period.  The  Company 
recognises  accumulated  compensated  absences 
based  on  actuarial  valuation  using  the  projected 
unit credit method. Non-accumulating compensated 
absences are recognised in the period in which the 
absences occur. 

b.  Superannuation 

(xii)  Share based payment transactions 

Superannuation plan, a defined contribution scheme 
is  administered  by  third  party  fund  managers. The 
Company  makes  annual  contributions  based  on  a 
specified percentage of each eligible employee’s salary. 

c.  Gratuity 

In  accordance  with  the  Payment  of  Gratuity 
Act,  1972,  applicable  for  Indian  companies,  the 
Company  provides  for  a  lump  sum  payment  to 
eligible  employees,  at  retirement  or  termination  of 
employment  based  on  the  last  drawn  salary  and 
years of employment with the Company. The gratuity 
fund is managed by third party fund managers. The 
Company’s obligation in respect of the gratuity plan, 
which is a defined benefit plan, is provided for based 
on actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit 
method. The Company recognises actuarial gains and 
losses in other comprehensive income, net of taxes. 

d. 

Termination benefits 

Termination  benefits  are  expensed  when  the 

228

Selected  employees  of  the  Company  receive 
remuneration  in  the  form  of  equity  settled 
instruments,  for  rendering  services  over  a  defined 
vesting  period  and  for  company’s  performance-
based stock options over the defined period. Equity 
instruments granted are measured by reference to 
the fair value of the instrument at the date of grant. 
In cases, where equity instruments are granted at a 
nominal exercise price, the intrinsic value on the date 
of grant approximates the fair value. The expense is 
recognised  in  the  consolidated  statement  of  profit 
and loss with a corresponding increase to the share 
options outstanding account, a component of equity. 

The  equity  instruments  generally  vest  in  a  graded 
manner  over  the  vesting  period.  The  fair  value 
determined  at  the  grant  date  is  expensed  over 
the  vesting  period  of  the  respective  tranches  of 
such  grants  (accelerated  amortisation). The  stock 
compensation expense is determined based on the 
Company’s estimate of equity instruments that will 
eventually vest.

(xiii) Provisions 

Provisions  are  recognised  when  the  Company  has 
a  present  obligation  (legal  or  constructive)  as  a 
result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow 
of  economic  benefits  will  be  required  to  settle  the 
obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the 
amount of the obligation. 

The  amount  recognised  as  a  provision  is  the  best 
estimate of the consideration required to settle the 
present obligation at the end of the reporting period, 
taking  into  account  the  risks  and  uncertainties 
surrounding the obligation. 

When some or all of the economic benefits required 
to  settle  a  provision  are  expected  to  be  recovered 
from a third party, the receivable is recognised as an 
asset, if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will 
be received and the amount of the receivable can be 
measured reliably. 

Provisions for onerous contracts are recognised when 
the expected benefits to be derived by the Company 
from a contract are lower than the unavoidable costs 
of meeting the future obligations under the contract. 
Provisions  for  onerous  contracts  are  measured  at 
the present value of lower of the expected net cost 
of  fulfilling  the  contract  and  the  expected  cost  of 
terminating the contract. 

(xiv) Revenue 

The Company derives revenue primarily from software 
development,  maintenance  of  software/hardware 
and related services, business process services, sale 
of IT and other products. 

Revenue  is  recognised  upon  transfer  of  control  of 
promised  products  or  services  to  customers  in  an 
amount that reflects the consideration the Company 
expects to receive in exchange for those products or 
services. To recognise revenues, the Company apply the 
following five step approach: (1) identify the contract 
with a customer, (2) identify the performance obligations 
in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) 
allocate  the  transaction  price  to  the  performance 
obligations in the contract, and (5) recognise revenues 
when a performance obligation is satisfied. 

At  contract  inception,  the  Company  assesses  its 
promise to transfer products or services to a customer 
to  identify  separate  performance  obligations.  The 
Company applies judgement to determine whether 
each  product  or  services  promised  to  a  customer 
are capable of being distinct, and are distinct in the 
context of the contract, if not, the promised product 
or services are combined and accounted as a single 
performance obligation. The Company allocates the 
arrangement consideration to separately identifiable 
performance obligation based on their relative stand-

alone selling price or residual method. Stand-alone 
selling prices are determined based on sale prices for 
the components when it is regularly sold separately, 
in cases where the Company is unable to determine 
the  stand-alone  selling  price  the  Company  uses 
third-party  prices  for  similar  deliverables  or  the 
company uses expected cost-plus margin approach 
in estimating the stand-alone selling price.

For  performance  obligations  where  control  is 
transferred  over  time,  revenues  are  recognised  by 
measuring  progress  towards  completion  of  the 
performance obligation. The selection of the method 
to  measure  progress  towards  completion  requires 
judgment and is based on the nature of the promised 
products or services to be provided.

The  method  for  recognising  revenues  and  costs 
depends on the nature of the services rendered: 

A.  Time and materials contracts 

Revenues and costs relating to time and materials 
are recognised as the related services are rendered. 

B.  Fixed-price contracts

i. 

Fixed-price development contracts 

Revenues  from  fixed-price  contracts,  including 
software  development,  and  integration  contracts, 
where  the  performance  obligations  are  satisfied 
over time, are recognised using the “percentage-of-
completion”  method.  Percentage  of  completion  is 
determined based on project costs incurred to date 
as  a  percentage  of  total  estimated  project  costs 
required to complete the project. The cost expended 
(or input) method has been used to measure progress 
towards completion as there is a direct relationship 
between  input  and  productivity.  If  the  Company 
is  not  able  to  reasonably  measure  the  progress  of 
completion, revenue is recognised only to the extent 
of costs incurred for which recoverability is probable. 
When  total  cost  estimates  exceed  revenues  in  an 
arrangement, the estimated losses are recognised in 
the consolidated statement of profit and loss in the 
period in which such losses become probable based 
on  the  current  contract  estimates  as  an  onerous 
contract provision. 

A  contract  asset  is  a  right  to  consideration  that  is 
conditional upon factors other than the passage of 
time.  Contract  assets  primarily  relate  to  unbilled 
amounts  on  fixed-price  development  contracts 
and  are  classified  as  non-financial  asset  as  the 
contractual  right  to  consideration  is  dependent  on 
completion of contractual milestones.

A contract liability is an entity’s obligation to transfer 
goods or services to a customer for which the entity 
has  received  consideration  (or  the  amount  is  due) 
from the customer.

229

Consolidated Financial Statements under Ind ASAnnual Report 2018-19 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Unbilled revenue on other than fixed price development 
contracts are classified as a financial asset where the 
right to consideration is unconditional upon passage 
of time

ii.  Maintenance contracts 

Revenues related to fixed-price maintenance, testing 
and business process services are recognised based 
on  our  right  to  invoice  for  services  performed  for 
contracts  in  which  the  invoicing  is  representative 
of  the  value  being  delivered.  If  our  invoicing  is 
not  consistent  with  value  delivered,  revenues  are 
recognised  as  the  service  is  performed  using  the 
percentage of completion method. When services are 
performed through an indefinite number of repetitive 
acts over a specified period, revenue is recognised on 
a straight-line basis over the specified period unless 
some  other  method  better  represents  the  stage  of 
completion. 

In  certain  projects,  a  fixed  quantum  of  service  or 
output  units  is  agreed  at  a  fixed  price  for  a  fixed 
term. In such contracts, revenue is recognised with 
respect to the actual output achieved till date as a 
percentage of total contractual output. Any residual 
service unutilised by the customer is recognised as 
revenue on completion of the term. 

iii.  Volume based contracts

Revenues  and  costs  are  recognised  as  the  related 
services are rendered. 

C.  Products

Revenue on product sales are recognised when the 
customer obtains control of the specified asset. 

D.  Others

• 

• 

Any change in scope or price is considered as a 
contract modification. The Company accounts for 
modifications to existing contracts by assessing 
whether  the  services  added  are  distinct  and 
whether the pricing is at the stand-alone selling 
price.  Services  added  that  are  not  distinct  are 
accounted  for  on  a  cumulative  catch  up  basis, 
while those that are distinct are accounted for 
prospectively, either as a separate contract if the 
additional services are priced at the stand-alone 
selling price, or as a termination of the existing 
contract  and  creation  of  a  new  contract  if  not 
priced at the stand-alone selling price.

The Company accounts for variable considerations 
like,  volume  discounts,  rebates  and  pricing 
incentives to customers as reduction of revenue 
on  a  systematic  and  rational  basis  over  the 
period of the contract. The Company estimates 
an amount of such variable consideration using 
expected value method or the single most likely 

230

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

amount  in  a  range  of  possible  consideration 
depending on which method better predicts the 
amount of consideration to which the Company 
may be entitled.

Revenues are shown net of allowances/ returns 
sales tax, value added tax, goods and services 
tax and applicable discounts and allowances. 

The  Company  accrues  the  estimated  cost  of 
warranties  at  the  time  when  the  revenue  is 
recognised.  The  accruals  are  based  on  the 
Company’s  historical  experience  of  material 
usage and service delivery costs. 

Incremental  costs  that  relate  directly  to  a 
contract and incurred in securing a contract with 
a customer are recognised as an asset when the 
Company  expects  to  recover  these  costs  and 
amortised over the contract term. 

The Company recognises contract fulfilment cost 
as an asset if those costs specifically relate to a 
contract or to an anticipated contract, the costs 
generate or enhance resources that will be used 
in satisfying performance obligations in future; 
and  the  costs  are  expected  to  be  recovered. 
The  asset  so  recognised  is  amortised  on  a 
systematic  basis  consistent  with  the  transfer 
of goods or services to customer to which the 
asset relates.

The  Company  assesses  the  timing  of  the 
transfer  of  goods  or  services  to  the  customer 
as  compared  to  the  timing  of  payments  to 
determine  whether  a  significant  financing 
component  exists.  As  a  practical  expedient, 
the  Company  does  not  assess  the  existence 
of a significant financing component when the 
difference  between  payment  and  transfer  of 
deliverables is a year or less. If the difference 
in  timing  arises  for  reasons  other  than  the 
provision  of  finance  to  either  the  customer  or 
us, no financing component is deemed to exist.

The  Company  may  enter  into  arrangements 
with  third  party  suppliers  to  resell  products  or 
services. In such cases, the Company evaluates 
whether the Company is the principal (i.e. report 
revenues  on  a  gross  basis)  or  agent  (i.e.  report 
revenues on a net basis). In doing so, the Company 
first  evaluates  whether  the  Company  controls 
the good or service before it is transferred to the 
customer. If Company controls the good or service 
before it is transferred to the customer, Company 
is the principal; if not, the Company is the agent.

(xv)  Finance costs

Finance costs comprises interest cost on borrowings, 
gains  or  losses  arising  on  re-measurement  of 
financial assets measured at FVTPL, gains/ (losses), 

Consolidated Financial Statements under Ind ASWipro Limited 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
net, on translation or settlement of foreign currency 
borrowings  and  changes  in  fair  value  and  gains/ 
(losses),  net,  on  settlement  of  related  derivative 
instruments.  Borrowing  costs  that  are  not  directly 
attributable to a qualifying asset are recognised in 
the consolidated statement of profit and loss using 
the effective interest method. 

(xvi) Finance and other income 

Finance and other income comprise interest income 
on  deposits,  dividend  income  and  gains  /  (losses) 
on  disposal  of  investments.  Interest  income  is 
recognised  using  the  effective  interest  method. 
Dividend  income  is  recognised  when  the  right  to 
receive payment is established. 

(xvii) Income tax 

Income  tax  comprises  current  and  deferred  tax. 
Income tax expense is recognised in the consolidated 
statement of profit and loss except to the extent it 
relates to a business combination, or items directly 
recognised  in  equity  or  in  other  comprehensive 
income. 

a)  Current income tax 

Current income tax for the current and prior periods 
are measured at the amount expected to be recovered 
from or paid to the taxation authorities based on the 
taxable income for the period. The tax rates and tax 
laws used to compute the current tax amounts are 
those that are enacted or substantively enacted as at 
the reporting date and applicable for the period. The 
Company offsets current tax assets and current tax 
liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right to 
set off the recognised amounts and where it intends 
either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset 
and liability simultaneously. 

b)  Deferred income tax 

Deferred income tax is recognised using the balance 
sheet  approach.  Deferred  income  tax  assets  and 
liabilities are recognised for deductible and taxable 
temporary differences arising between the tax base 
of  assets  and  liabilities  and  their  carrying  amount 
in  financial  statements,  except  when  the  deferred 
income  tax  arises  from  the  initial  recognition  of 
goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that 
is  not  a  business  combination  and  affects  neither 
accounting nor taxable profits or loss at the time of 
the transaction. 

Deferred  income  tax  assets  are  recognised  to  the 
extent  it  is  probable  that  taxable  profit  will  be 
available  against  which  the  deductible  temporary 
differences  and  the  carry  forward  of  unused  tax 
credits and unused tax losses can be utilised. 

Deferred  income  tax  liabilities  are  recognised  for 
all taxable temporary differences except in respect 
of  taxable  temporary  differences  that  is  expected 
to  reverse  within  the  tax  holiday  period,  taxable 
temporary differences associated with investments 
in  subsidiaries,  associates  and  foreign  branches 
where  the  timing  of  the  reversal  of  the  temporary 
difference can be controlled and it is probable that 
the  temporary  difference  will  not  reverse  in  the 
foreseeable future. 

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is 
reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the 
extent  that  it  is  no  longer  probable  that  sufficient 
taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of 
the deferred income tax asset to be utilised. 

Deferred  income  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are 
measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply 
in the period when the asset is realised or the liability 
is  settled,  based  on  tax  rates  (and  tax  laws)  that 
have been enacted or substantively enacted at the 
reporting date. 

The  Company  offsets  deferred  income  tax  assets 
and  liabilities,  where  it  has  a  legally  enforceable 
right  to  offset  current  tax  assets  against  current 
tax liabilities, and they relate to taxes levied by the 
same taxation authority on either the same taxable 
entity, or on different taxable entities where there is 
an intention to settle the current tax liabilities and 
assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities 
will be realised simultaneously. 

(xviii) Earnings per share 

Basic  earnings  per  share  is  computed  using 
the  weighted  average  number  of  equity  shares 
outstanding during the period adjusted for treasury 
shares held. Diluted earnings per share is computed 
using  the  weighted-average  number  of  equity  and 
dilutive  equivalent  shares  outstanding  during  the 
period, using the treasury stock method for options, 
except where the results would be anti-dilutive. 

The number of equity shares and potentially dilutive 
equity  shares  are  adjusted  retrospectively  for  all 
periods  presented  for  any  splits  and  bonus  shares 
issues  including  for  change  effected  prior  to  the 
approval  of  the  consolidated  financial  statements 
by the Board of Directors.

(xix) Cash flow statement

Cash  flow  are  reported  using  the  indirect  method, 
whereby  profit  for  the  period  is  adjusted  for  the 
effects  of  transactions  of  a  non-cash  nature,  any 
deferrals or accruals of past operating cash receipts 
or  payments  and  item  of  income  or  expenses 
associated  with  investing  or  financing  cash  flows.

receivables.

The amendment to Ind AS 7, require entities to provide 
disclosures about changes in their liabilities arising 
from  financing  activities,  including  both  changes 
arising from cash flows and non-cash changes (such 
as foreign exchange gains or losses).

The adoption of Ind AS 115, did not have any material 
impact on the consolidated statement of profit and 
loss and earnings per share for year ended March 31, 
2019.

A.  Contract Asset and Liabilities

(xx)  Assets held for sale 

Sale  of  business  is  classified  as  held  for  sale,  if 
their  carrying  amount  is  intended  to  be  recovered 
principally  through  sale  rather  than  through 
continuing  use.  The  condition  for  classification 
as  held  for  sale  is  met  when  disposal  business  is 
available for immediate sale and the same is highly 
probable of being completed within one year from the 
date of classification as held for sale.

(xxi) Discontinued operations 

A  discontinued  operation  is  a  component  of  the 
Company’s business that represents a separate line 
of business that has been disposed of or is held for 
sale,  or  is  a  subsidiary  acquired  exclusively  with 
a  view  to  resale.  Classification  as  a  discontinued 
operation occurs upon the earlier of disposal or when 
the operation meets the criteria to be classified as 
held for sale. 

(xxii) Disposal of assets

The gain or loss arising on disposal or retirement of 
assets are recognised in the consolidated statement 
of profit and loss.

New Accounting standards adopted by the Company: 

Ind AS 115- Revenue from Contract with Customers

On April 1, 2018, the Company adopted Ind AS 115, 
“Revenue  from  Contracts  with  Customers”  using 
the cumulative catch-up transition method applied 
to contracts that were not completed as at April 1, 
2018.  In  accordance  with  the  cumulative  catch-up 
transition method, the comparatives have not been 
retrospectively adjusted. 

The adoption of the new standard has resulted in a 
reduction  of  `  2,279  in  opening  retained  earnings, 
primarily relating to certain contract costs because 
these do not meet the criteria for recognition as costs 
to fulfil a contract.

On account of adoption of Ind AS 115, unbilled revenues 
pertaining to fixed price development contracts of ` 
15,038 as at March 31, 2019, has been considered as 
non-financial Contract assets, which are billable on 
completion of milestones specified in the contracts.

Unbilled revenues ` 22,880 which are billable based 
on passage of time has been classified as unbilled 

The Company classifies its right to consideration in 
exchange for deliverables as either a receivable or a 
contract asset. 

A  receivable  is  a  right  to  consideration  that 
is  unconditional.  A  right  to  consideration  is 
unconditional if only the passage of time is required 
before  payment  of  that  consideration  is  due.  For 
example,  the  company  recognises  a  receivable  for 
revenues related to time and materials contracts or 
volume-based contracts. The Company present such 
receivables as part of unbilled receivables at their net 
estimated realisable value. 

Contract liabilities: During the year ended March 31, 
2019, the Company recognised revenue of ` 14,570 
arising from opening unearned revenue as at April 1, 
2018.

Contract  Assets:  During  the  year  ended  March  31, 
2019,  `  13,558  of  unbilled  revenue  pertaining  to 
fixed-price  development  contracts  (balance  as  at 
April 1, 2018: ` 17,469), has been reclassified to trade 
receivables on completion of milestones.

Contract assets and liabilities are reported in a net 
position on a contract by contract basis at the end 
of each reporting period.

B.  Remaining Performance Obligations

Revenue  allocated  to  remaining  performance 
obligations represents contracted revenue that has 
not  yet  been  recognised  which  includes  unearned 
revenue  and  amounts  that  will  be  invoiced  and 
recognised as revenue in future periods. Applying the 
practical expedient, the Company has not disclosed 
its right to consideration from customer in an amount 
that  corresponds  directly  with  the  value  to  the 
customer of the Company’s performance completed 
to  date  which  are,  contracts  invoiced  on  time  and 
material  basis  and  volume  based.  As  at  March  31, 
2019,  the  aggregate  amount  of  transaction  price 
allocated  to  remaining  performance  obligations, 
other  than  those  meeting  the  exclusion  criteria 
above,  was  `  373,879  of  which  approximately  59% 
is  expected  to  be  recognised  as  revenues  within  2 
years,  and  the  remainder  thereafter. This  includes 
contracts  that  can  be  terminated  for  convenience 
without a substantive penalty since, based on current 
assessment, the occurrence of the same is expected 
to be remote.

Appendix B to Ind AS 21, Foreign Currency Transactions 
and Advance Consideration

The  Company  has  applied  Appendix  B  to  Ind  AS  21 
prospectively  effective  April  1,2018.  The  effect  on 
adoption of the amendment on the consolidated financial 
statements is insignificant.

New accounting standards not yet adopted: 

Certain  new  standards,  amendments  to  standards  and 
interpretations  are  not  yet  effective  for  annual  periods 
beginning after April 1 2018, and have not been applied in 
preparing these consolidated financial statements. New 
standards, amendments to standards and interpretations 
that  could  have  potential  impact  on  the  consolidated 
financial statements of the Company are: 

Ind AS 116 –Leases

On  March  30,  2019,  Ministry  of  Corporate  Affairs 
notified Ind AS 116, Leases. Ind AS 116 will replace the 
existing leases Standard, Ind AS 17 Leases, and related 
interpretations.  The  standard  sets  out  the  principles 
for  the  recognition,  measurement,  presentation  and 
disclosure of leases. Ind AS 116 introduces a single lessee 
accounting  model  and  requires  a  lessee  to  recognise 
assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more 
than  12  months,  unless  the  underlying  asset  is  of  low 
value. The Standard also contains enhanced disclosure 
requirements for lessees. 

The standard allows for two methods of transition: the full 
retrospective approach, requires entities to retrospectively 
apply  the  new  standard  to  each  prior  reporting  period 
presented and the entities need to adjust equity at the 
beginning of the earliest comparative period presented, or 
the modified retrospective approach, under which the date 
of initial application of the new leases standard, lessees 
recognise the cumulative effect of initial application as an 
adjustment to the opening balance of equity as of annual 
periods beginning on or after April 1, 2019. 

The  Company  will  adopt  this  standard  using  modified 
retrospective  method  effective  April  1,  2019,  and 
accordingly,  the  comparative  for  year  ended  March  31, 
2018  and  2019,  will  not  be  retrospectively  adjusted. 
The  Company  has  elected  certain  available  practical 
expedients on transition. 

Based  on  assessment,  the  effect  of  adoption  as  on 
transition  date  would  majorly  result  in  recognising  a 
right-of-use  assets  and  corresponding  lease  liabilities 
approximately ` 13,266 and ` 15,867 respectively. There 
will be reclassification in the cash flow categories in the 
statement of cash flows.

Appendix  C  to  Ind  AS  12  -  Uncertainty  over  income  tax 
treatments

On March 30, 2019, Ministry of Corporate Affairs issued 
Appendix C to Ind AS 12, which clarifies the accounting 
for  uncertainties  in  income  taxes. The  interpretation  is 

233

Consolidated Financial Statements under Ind ASAnnual Report 2018-19 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
to be applied to the determination of taxable profit (tax 
loss),  tax  bases,  unused  tax  losses,  unused  tax  credits 
and tax rates, when there is uncertainty over income tax 
treatments under Ind AS 12. The entity has to consider the 
probability of the relevant taxation authority accepting the 
tax treatment and the determination of taxable profit (tax 
loss), tax bases, unused tax losses, unused tax credits and 
tax rates would depend upon the probability. The effective 
date  for  adoption  of  Appendix  C  to  Ind  AS  12  is  April  1, 
2019. The  Company  will  apply  Appendix  C  to  Ind  AS  12 
prospectively  from  the  effective  date  and  the  effect  on 
adoption of Appendix C to Ind AS 12 on the consolidated 
financial statement is insignificant.

Amendment to Ind AS 12 – Income Taxes

On  March  30,  2019,  Ministry  of  Corporate  Affairs 
issued  amendments  to  Ind  AS  12  –  Income  Taxes.  The 
amendments  clarify  that  an  entity  shall  recognise  the 
income  tax  consequences  of  dividends  on  financial 
instruments  classified  as  equity  should  be  recognised 
according to where the entity originally recognised those 
past transactions or events that generated distributable 

profits  were  recognised.  The  effective  date  of  these 
amendments is annual periods beginning on or after April 
1, 2019. The Company is currently assessing the impact of 
this amendment on the Company’s consolidated financial 
statements.

Amendment to Ind AS 19 - Plan Amendment, Curtailment 
or Settlement

On  March  30,  2019,  Ministry  of  Corporate  Affairs 
issued  amendments  to  Ind  AS  19, ‘Employee  Benefits’, 
in  connection  with  accounting  for  plan  amendments, 
curtailments  and  settlements  requiring  an  entity  to 
determine the current service costs and the net interest for 
the period after the remeasurement using the assumptions 
used  for  the  remeasurement;  and  determine  the  net 
interest for the remaining period based on the remeasured 
net defined benefit liability or asset. These amendments 
are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or 
after April 1, 2019. The Company will apply the amendment 
from the effective date and the effect on adoption of the 
amendment  on  the  consolidated  financial  statement  is 
insignificant.

Acquisition through business combinations for the year ended March 31, 2018, includes goodwill recognised on 
four acquisitions. Also,Refer Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements.

The Company is organised by three operating segments: IT Services and IT Products and India State Run Enterprise. 
Goodwill as at March 31, 2019 and 2018 has been allocated to the IT Services operating segment.

Goodwill recognised on business combinations is allocated to Cash Generating Units (CGUs), within the IT Services 
operating segment,which are expected to benefit from the synergies of the acquisitions.

During the year ended March 31, 2019, the company realigned its CGUs (also Refer Note 36). Consequently, goodwill 
has been allocated to the new CGUs as at March 31, 2019 as follows:

CGUs
Banking Financial Services and Insurance (BFSI)
Healthcare and Life Sciences (Health BU)
Consumer (CBU)
Energy, Natural Resources and Utilities (ENU)

For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to a CGU representing the lowest level within the Group 
at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes, and which is not higher than the Company’s 
operating segment. Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the Company’s procedure 
for determining the recoverable value of each CGU.

The recoverable amount of the CGU is determined on the basis of Fair Value Less Cost of Disposal (FVLCD). The 
FVLCD of the CGU is determined based on the market capitalisation approach, using the turnover and earnings 
multiples derived from observable market data. The fair value measurement is categorised as a level 2 fair value 
based on the inputs in the valuation techniques used. 

Based on the above testing, no impairment was identified as at March 31, 2019 and 2018 as the recoverable value 
of the CGUs exceeded the carrying value. Further, none of the CGU’s tested for impairment as at March 31, 2019 
and 2018 were at risk of impairment. An analysis of the calculation’s sensitivity to a change in the key parameters 
(turnover and earnings multiples), did not identify any probable scenarios where the CGU’s recoverable amount 
would fall below its carrying amount.

For the financial assets and liabilities subject to offsetting or similar arrangements, each agreement between the 
Company and the counterparty allows for net settlement of the relevant financial assets and liabilities when both 

244

Consolidated Financial Statements under Ind ASWipro Limited 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
elect to settle on a net basis. In the absence of such an election, financial assets and liabilities will be settled on 
a gross basis and hence are not offset.

Fair value

Financial assets and liabilities include cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, unbilled revenues, finance 
lease receivables, employee and other advances and eligible current and non-current assets, long and short-term 
loans and borrowings, finance lease payables, bank overdrafts, trade payable, eligible current liabilities and non-
current liabilities.

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, unbilled revenues, borrowings, trade payables, other 
current financial assets and liabilities approximate their carrying amount largely due to the short-term nature of 
these instruments. The Company’s long-term debt has been contracted at market rates of interest. Accordingly, 
the carrying value of such long-term debt approximates fair value. Further, finance lease receivables that are 
overdue are periodically evaluated based on individual credit worthiness of customers. Based on this evaluation, 
the Company records allowance for estimated losses on these receivables. As at March 31, 2019 and 2018, the 
carrying value of such receivables, net of allowances approximates the fair value.

Investments in liquid and short-term mutual funds, which are classified as FVTPL are measured using net asset 
values  at  the  reporting  date  multiplied  by  the  quantity  held.  Fair  value  of  investments  in  commercial  papers, 
certificate of deposits and bonds classified as FVTOCI is determined based on the indicative quotes of price and 
yields prevailing in the market at the reporting date. Fair value of investments in equity instruments classified as 
FVTOCI is determined using market and income approaches.

The  fair  value  of  derivative  financial  instruments  is  determined  based  on  observable  market  inputs  including 
currency spot and forward rates, yield curves, currency volatility etc.

Fair value hierarchy

The table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value, by valuation method. The different levels have 
been defined as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 –  Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, 

either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).

Level 3 – Inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

The following table presents fair value of hierarchy of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring 
basis:

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of the level 2 financial instruments 
included in the above table.

Derivative instruments (assets and liabilities): The Company enters into derivative financial instruments with 
various counter-parties, primarily banks with investment grade credit ratings. Derivatives valued using valuation 
techniques with market observable inputs are mainly interest rate swaps, foreign exchange forward contracts and 
foreign exchange option contracts. The most frequently applied valuation techniques include forward pricing, swap 
models and Black Scholes models (for option valuation), using present value calculations. The models incorporate 
various inputs including the credit quality of counterparties, foreign exchange spot and forward rates, interest rate 
curves and forward rate curves of the underlying. As at March 31, 2019, the changes in counterparty credit risk 
had no material effect on the hedge effectiveness assessment for derivatives designated in hedge relationships 
and other financial instruments recognised at fair value.

Investment in commercial papers, certificate of deposits and bonds: Fair value of these instruments is derived 
based on the indicative quotes of price and yields prevailing in the market as at reporting date.

The related hedge transactions for balance in cash flow hedging reserves as at March 31, 2019 are expected to 
occur and be reclassified to the statement of profit and loss over a period of two years.

As at March 31, 2019 and 2018, there were no significant gains or losses on derivative transactions or portions 
thereof that have become ineffective as hedges, or associated with an underlying exposure that did not occur.

Sale of financial assets 

From  time  to  time,  in  the  normal  course  of  business,  the  Company  transfers  accounts  receivables,  unbilled 
receivables,  net  investment  in  finance  lease  receivables  (financials  assets)  to  banks.  Under  the  terms  of  the 
arrangements,  the  Company  surrenders  control  over  the  financial  assets  and  transfer  is  without  recourse. 
Accordingly, such transfers are recorded as sale of financial assets. Gains and losses on sale of financial assets 
without recourse are recorded at the time of sale based on the carrying value of the financial assets and fair value 
of servicing liability. The incremental impact of such transactions on our cash flow and liquidity for the year ended 
March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018 is not material.

In certain cases, transfer of financial assets may be with recourse. Under arrangements with recourse, the Company 
is obligated to repurchase the uncollected financial assets, subject to limits specified in the agreement with the 
banks. These are reflected as part of loans and borrowings in the statement of consolidated balance sheet.

Financial risk management 

Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, to fair values or to future cash flows that may result from a change 
in the price of a financial instrument. The value of a financial instrument may change as a result of changes in 
the interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and other market changes that affect market risk sensitive 
instruments. Market risk is attributable to all market risk sensitive financial instruments including investments, 
foreign currency receivables, payables and borrowings. 

The Company’s exposure to market risk is a function of investment and borrowing activities and revenue generating 
activities  in  foreign  currency. The  objective  of  market  risk  management  is  to  avoid  excessive  exposure  of  the 
Company’s earnings and equity to losses. 

Risk Management Procedures 

The  Company  manages  market  risk  through  a  corporate  treasury  department,  which  evaluates  and  exercises 
independent  control  over  the  entire  process  of  market  risk  management. The  corporate  treasury  department 
recommends  risk  management  objectives  and  policies,  which  are  approved  by  senior  management  and  Audit 
Committee. The  activities  of  this  department  include  management  of  cash  resources,  implementing  hedging 
strategies for foreign currency exposures, borrowing strategies, and ensuring compliance with market risk limits 
and policies. 

Foreign currency risk 

The Company operates internationally and a major portion of its business is transacted in several currencies.

Consequently, the Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk through receiving payment for sales and services 
in the United States and elsewhere, and making purchases from overseas suppliers in various foreign currencies. 
The exchange rate risk primarily arises from foreign exchange revenue, receivables, cash balances, forecasted 
cash flows, payables and foreign currency loans and borrowings. A significant portion of the Company’s revenue 
is in the U.S. Dollar, the United Kingdom Pound Sterling, the Euro, the Canadian Dollar and the Australian Dollar, 
while a large portion of costs are in Indian rupees. The exchange rate between the rupee and these currencies 
has fluctuated significantly in recent years and may continue to fluctuate in the future. Appreciation of the rupee 
against these currencies can adversely affect the Company’s results of operations.

The Company evaluates exchange rate exposure arising from these transactions and enters into foreign currency 
derivative instruments to mitigate such exposure. The Company follows established risk management policies, 
including the use of derivatives like foreign exchange forward/option contracts to hedge forecasted cash flows 
denominated in foreign currency. 

The Company has designated certain derivative instruments as cash flow hedges to mitigate the foreign exchange 
exposure of forecasted highly probable cash flows. The Company has also designated foreign currency borrowings 
as hedge against respective net investments in foreign operations. 

As  at  March  31,  2019  and  2018  respectively,  a  `  1  increase/decrease  in  the  spot  exchange  rate  of  the  Indian 
rupee  with  the  U.S.  dollar  would  result  in  approximately  `  2,002  (consolidated  statement  of  profit  and  loss  
` 602 and other comprehensive income ` 1,400) and ` 1,500 (consolidated statement of profit and loss ` 414 and 
other comprehensive income ` 1,086) decrease/increase in the fair value of foreign currency dollar denominated 
derivative instruments.

 The below table presents foreign currency risk from non-derivative financial instruments as at March 31, 2019 
and 2018:

As at March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, every 1% increase/decrease of the respective foreign currencies 
compared  to  functional  currency  of  the  Company  would  impact  results  by  approximately  `  457  and  `  365, 
respectively.

Interest rate risk 

Interest  rate  risk  primarily  arises  from  floating  rate  borrowing,  including  various  revolving  and  other  lines  of 
credit. The Company’s investments are primarily in short-term investments, which do not expose it to significant 
interest rate risk. The Company manages its net exposure to interest rate risk relating to borrowings by entering 
into interest rate swap agreements, which allows it to exchange periodic payments based on a notional amount 
and agreed upon fixed and floating interest rates. Certain borrowings are also transacted at fixed interest rates. If 
interest rates were to increase by 100 bps from March 31, 2019, additional net annual interest expense on floating 
rate borrowing would amount to approximately ` 866.

Credit risk 

Credit risk arises from the possibility that customers may not be able to settle their obligations as agreed. To manage 
this, the Company periodically assesses the financial reliability of customers, taking into account the financial 
condition, current economic trends, analysis of historical bad debts and ageing of accounts receivable. Individual 
risk limits are set accordingly. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of the accounts receivable as of 
March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively and revenues for the year ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. 
There is no significant concentration of credit risk.

Counterparty risk 

Counterparty risk encompasses issuer risk on marketable securities, settlement risk on derivative and money 
market contracts and credit risk on cash and time deposits. Issuer risk is minimised by only buying securities which 
are at least AA rated in India based on Indian rating agencies. Settlement and credit risk is reduced by the policy 
of entering into transactions with counterparties that are usually banks or financial institutions with acceptable 
credit ratings. Exposure to these risks are closely monitored and maintained within predetermined parameters. 
There are limits on credit exposure to any financial institution. The limits are regularly assessed and determined 
based upon credit analysis including financial statements and capital adequacy ratio reviews. 

Liquidity risk 

Liquidity risk is defined as the risk that the Company will not be able to settle or meet its obligations on time or 
at a reasonable price. The Company’s corporate treasury department is responsible for liquidity and funding as 
well as settlement management. In addition, processes and policies related to such risks are overseen by senior 
management. Management monitors the Company’s net liquidity position through rolling forecasts on the basis 
of expected cash flows. As of March 31, 2019, cash and cash equivalents are held with major banks and financial 
institutions.

The table below provides details regarding the remaining contractual maturities of significant financial liabilities 
at  the  reporting  date. The  amounts  include  estimated  interest  payments  and  exclude  the  impact  of  netting 
agreements, if any.

As at March 31, 2019 and 2018, plan assets were primarily invested in insurer managed funds.

The Company has established an income tax approved irrevocable trust fund to which it regularly contributes to 
finance the liabilities of the gratuity plan. The fund’s investments are managed by certain insurance companies 
as per the mandate provided to them by the trustees and the asset allocation is within the permissible limits 
prescribed in the insurance regulations.

The principal assumptions used for the purpose of actuarial valuation of these defined benefit plans are as follows:

Discount rate
Expected return on plan assets
Expected rate of salary increase
Duration of defined benefit obligations

 As at 
March 31, 2019  March 31, 2018 
6.30%
6.30%
6.89%
8 years

6.05%
6.05%
6.80%
8 years

The expected return on plan assets is based on expectation of the average long term rate of return expected on 
investments of the fund during the estimated term of the obligations.

The discount rate is primarily based on the prevailing market yields of government securities for the estimated 
term  of  the  obligations. The  estimates  of  future  salary  increases  considered  takes  into  account  the  inflation, 
seniority, promotion and other relevant factors. Attrition rate considered is the management’s estimate, based 
on previous years’ employee turnover of the Company.

The expected future contribution and estimated future benefit payments from the fund are as follows: 

Expected contribution to the fund during the year ending March 31, 2019
Estimated benefit payments from the fund for the year ending March 31:

The expected benefits are based on the same assumptions used to measure the Company’s benefit obligations 
as of March 31, 2019.

Sensitivity for significant actuarial assumptions is computed to show the movement in defined benefit obligation 
by 0.5 percentage.

As of March 31, 2019, every 0.5 percentage point increase/ (decrease) in discount rate will result in (decrease)/
increase of defined benefit obligation by approximately ` (405) and ` 435 respectively (March 31, 2018: ` (320) 
and ` 341 respectively).

As of March 31, 2019, every 0.5 percentage point increase/ (decrease) in expected rate of salary will result in 
increase/  (decrease)  of  defined  benefit  obligation  by  approximately  `  245  and  `  (229)  respectively  (March  31,

Deferred taxes on unrealised foreign exchange gain / loss relating to cash flow hedges, fair value movements in 
investments and actuarial gains/losses on defined benefit plans are recognised in other comprehensive income. 
Deferred tax liability on the intangible assets identified and carry forward losses on acquisitions is recorded by 
an adjustment to goodwill. Other than these, the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities is primarily recorded 
in the consolidated statement of profit and loss. 

In assessing the realisability of deferred tax assets, the Company considers the extent to which it is probable 
that the deferred tax asset will be realised. The ultimate realisation of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the 
generation of future taxable profits during the periods in which those temporary differences and tax loss carry-
forwards become deductible. The Company considers the expected reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected 
future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on this, the Company believes 
that  it  is  probable  that  the  Company  will  realise  the  benefits  of  these  deductible  differences. The  amount  of 
deferred tax asset considered realisable, however, could be reduced in the near term if the estimates of future 
taxable income during the carry-forward period are reduced. 

Deferred tax asset amounting to ` 6,769 and ` 3,756 as at March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively in respect of 
unused tax losses have not been recognised by the Company. The tax loss carry-forwards of ` 24,355 and ` 14,510 
as at March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, relates to certain subsidiaries on which deferred tax asset has not 
been recognised by the Company, because there is a lack of reasonable certainty that these subsidiaries may 
generate future taxable profits. Approximately, ` 8,191 and ` 6,223 as at March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, of 
these tax loss carry-forwards is not currently subject to expiration dates. The remaining tax loss carry-forwards of 
approximately, ` 16,164 and ` 8,287 as at March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, expires in various years through 
fiscal 2038.

The Company has recognised deferred tax assets of ` 3,149 and ` 5,694 primarily in respect of carry forward losses 
of its various subsidiaries as at March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Management’s projections of future taxable 
income and tax planning strategies support the assumption that it is probable that sufficient taxable income will 
be available to utilise these deferred tax assets.

The Company has calculated its tax liability for current domestic taxes after considering MAT. The excess tax 
paid under MAT provisions over and above normal tax liability can be carried forward and set-off against future 
tax liabilities computed under normal tax provisions. The Company was required to pay MAT and accordingly, a 
deferred tax asset of ` Nil and ` 74 has been recognised in the statement of consolidated balance sheet as of 
March 31, 2019 and 2018 respectively.

A substantial portion of the profits of the Company’s India operations are exempt from Indian income taxes being 
profits attributable to export operations and profits from units established under the Special Economic Zone Act, 
2005 scheme. Units designated in special economic zones providing service on or after April 1, 2005 will be eligible 
for a deduction of 100 percent of profits or gains derived from the export of services for the first five years from 
commencement of provision of services and 50 percent of such profits and gains for a further five years. Certain tax 
benefits are also available for a further five years subject to the unit meeting defined conditions. Profits from certain 
other undertakings are also eligible for preferential tax treatment. The tax holiday period being currently available 
to the Company expires in various years through fiscal 2032-33. The expiration period of tax holiday for each unit 
within a SEZ is determined based on the number of years that have lapsed following year of commencement of 
production by that unit. The impact of tax holidays has resulted in a decrease of current tax expense of  ` 15,390 
and ` 11,635 for the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, compared to the effective tax amounts 
that we estimate we would have been required to pay if these incentives had not been available. The per share 
effect of these tax incentives for the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was ` 2.56 and ` 1.84, respectively.

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences except in respect of taxable 
temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries where the timing of the reversal of the temporary 
difference can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable 
future. Accordingly, deferred income tax liabilities on cumulative earnings of subsidiaries amounting to ` 52,488 
and ` 51,432 as of March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively and branch profit tax @ 15% of the US branch profit 
have not been recognised. Further, it is not practicable to estimate the amount of the unrecognised deferred tax 
liabilities for these undistributed earnings.

A reconciliation of profit for the year and equity shares used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per 
equity share is set out below:

Basic:  Basic  earnings  per  share  is  calculated  by  dividing  the  profit  attributable  to  equity  shareholders  of  the 
Company by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year, excluding equity shares 
purchased by the Company and held as treasury shares.

`       90,037
6,007,376,837
`          14.99

Diluted:  Diluted  earnings  per  share  is  calculated  by  adjusting  the  weighted  average  number  of  equity  shares 
outstanding during the year for assumed conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. Employee share options 
are dilutive potential equity shares for the Company.

The  calculation  is  performed  in  respect  of  share  options  to  determine  the  number  of  shares  that  could  have 
been acquired at fair value (determined as the average market price of the Company’s shares during the year). 
The number of shares calculated as above is compared with the number of shares that would have been issued 
assuming the exercise of the share options.

The stock compensation expense recognised for employee services received during the year ended March 31, 
2019 and 2018 were ` 1,938 and ` 1,347, respectively.

Wipro Equity Reward Trust (“WERT”)

In 1984, the Company established a controlled trust called the Wipro Equity Reward Trust (“WERT”). In the earlier 
years, WERT purchased shares of the Company out of funds borrowed from the Company. The Company’s Board 
Governance, Nomination and Compensation Committee recommends to WERT certain officers and key employees, 
to whom WERT issues shares from its holdings at nominal price subject to vesting conditions. WERT held 27,353,853 
and 23,097,216 treasury shares as of March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

The Company declares and pays dividends in Indian rupees. According to the Companies Act, 2013 any dividend 
should be declared out of accumulated distributable profits. A Company may, before the declaration of any dividend, 
transfer a percentage of its profits for that financial year as it may consider appropriate to the reserves.

The cash dividends paid per equity share were ` 1, and ` 1, during the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, 
respectively, including an interim dividend of ` 1 and ` 1 for the year ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

During the year ended March 31, 2019, the bonus issue in the proportion of 1:3 i.e.1 (One) bonus equity share of ` 2 
each for every 3 (three) fully paid-up equity shares held (including ADS holders) was approved by the shareholders 
of the Company on February 22, 2019, through Postal Ballot /e-voting. Subsequently, on March 8, 2019, the Company 
allotted 1,508,469,180 equity shares to shareholders who held equity shares as on the record date of March 7, 
2019 and ` 3,016 (representing par value of ` 2 per share) was transferred from capital redemption reserves, share 
Options Outstanding Account and retained earnings to the share capital.

During the year ended March 31, 2018, the bonus issue in the proportion of 1:1 i.e.1 (One) bonus equity share 
of ` 2 each for every 1 (one) fully paid-up equity share held (including ADS holders) had been approved by the 
shareholders of the Company on June 03, 2017 through Postal Ballot /e-voting. For this purpose, June 14, 2017, 
was fixed as the record date. Consequently, on June 15, 2017, the Company allotted 2,433,074,327 shares and ` 
4,866 (representing par value of ` 2 per share) has been transferred from retained earnings to share capital.

During the year ended March 31, 2018, the Company has concluded the buyback of 343,750,000 equity shares 
as approved by the Board of Directors on July 20, 2017. This has resulted in a total cash outflow of ` 110,000. In 
line with the requirement of the Companies Act 2013, an amount of ` 1,656 and ` 108,344 has been utilised from 
the share Options Outstanding Account account and retained earnings respectively. Further, capital redemption 
reserves (included in other reserves) of ` 687 (representing the nominal value of the shares bought back) has been 
created as an apportionment from retained earnings. Consequent to such buyback, share capital has reduced by 
` 687.

34.  Additional capital disclosures

The key objective of the Company’s capital management is to ensure that it maintains a stable capital structure with 
the focus on total equity to uphold investor, creditor, and customer confidence and to ensure future development 
of its business. The Company focused on keeping strong total equity base to ensure independence, security, as 
well as a high financial flexibility for potential future borrowings, if required without impacting the risk profile of 
the Company.

The Company’s goal is to continue to be able to return excess liquidity to shareholders by continuing to distribute 
annual dividends in future periods.

The amount of future dividends/ buyback of equity shares will be balanced with efforts to continue to maintain 
an adequate liquidity status.

35.  Commitments and contingencies

Capital commitments: As at March 31, 2019 and 2018 the Company had committed to spend approximately ` 12,443 
and ` 13,091 respectively, under agreements to purchase/ construct property and equipment. These amounts are 
net of capital advances paid in respect of these purchases.

Guarantees: As at March 31, 2019 and 2018, performance and financial guarantees provided by banks on behalf of 
the Company to the Indian Government, customers and certain other agencies amount to approximately ` 18,546 
and ` 21,546 respectively, as part of the bank line of credit.

Contingencies and lawsuits: The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims (including tax assessment 
orders/  penalty  notices)  which  have  arisen  in  the  ordinary  course  of  its  business.  Some  of  the  claims  involve 
complex issues and it is not possible to make a reasonable estimate of the expected financial effect, if any, that 
will result from ultimate resolution of such proceedings. However, the resolution of these legal proceedings is not 
likely to have a material and adverse effect on the results of operations or the financial position of the Company. 
The significant of such matters are discussed below.

In March 2004, the Company received a tax demand for year ended March 31, 2001 arising primarily on account of 
denial of deduction under section 10A of the Income Tax Act, 1961 (Act) in respect of profit earned by the Company’s 
undertaking in Software Technology Park at Bangalore. The same issue was repeated in the successive assessments 
for the years ended March 31, 2002 to March 31, 2011 and the aggregate demand is ` 47,583 (including interest of 
` 13,832). The appeals filed against the said demand before the Appellate authorities have been allowed in favor of 
the Company by the second appellate authority for the years up to March 31, 2008. Further appeals have been filed 
by the Income tax authorities before the Hon’ble High Court. The Hon’ble High Court has heard and disposed-off 
majority of the issues in favor of the Company up to years ended March 31, 2004. Department has filed a Special 
Leave Petition (SLP) before the Supreme Court of India for the year ended March 31, 2001 to March 31, 2004.

On similar issues for years up to March 31, 2000, the Hon’ble High Court of Karnataka has upheld the claim of the 
Company under section 10A of the Act. For the year ended March 31, 2009, the appeals are pending before Income 
Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT). For years ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2011, the Dispute Resolution Panel 
(DRP) allowed the claim of the Company under section 10A of the Act. The Income tax authorities have filed an 
appeal before the ITAT. 

For  year  ended  March  31,  2013,  the  Company  received  the  final  assessment  order  in  November  2017  with  a 
demand of ` 3,286 (including interest of ` 1,166), arising primarily on account of section 10AA issues with respect 
to exclusion from Export Turnover. The Company has filed an appeal before Hon’ble ITAT, Bengaluru within the 
prescribed timelines.

For  year  ended  March  31,  2014,  the  Company  received  the  final  assessment  order  in  September  2018  with  a 
demand of ` 1,030 (including Nil interest), arising primarily on account of transfer pricing issues. The Company 
has filed an appeal before the Hon’ble ITAT, Bengaluru within the prescribed timelines. 

272

Consolidated Financial Statements under Ind ASWipro Limited 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
For year ended March 31, 2015, the Company received the Draft assessment order in December 2018 with a demand 
of ` 6,467 (including interest of ` 2,007), arising primarily on account of Capitalization of wages. The Company has 
filed objections before the Dispute Resolution Panel (Bengaluru) within the prescribed timelines.

Income tax demands against the Company amounting to ` 66,441 and ` 101,440 are not acknowledged as debt 
as at March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, respectively. The contingent liability has been reworked on the basis 
of recent judicial pronouncements and updates. These matters are pending before various Appellate Authorities 
and the management expects its position will likely be upheld on ultimate resolution and will not have a material 
adverse effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

The contingent liability in respect of disputed demands for excise duty, custom duty, sales tax and other matters 
amounts to ` 8,477 and ` 7,745 as at March 31, 2019 and 2018. However, the resolution of these legal proceedings 
is not likely to have a material and adverse effect on the results of operations or the financial position of the 
Company.

36.  Segment information

During the year ended March 31, 2019, the Company have organised India State Run Enterprise segment (ISRE) 
as a separate segment, which was earlier part of IT Services segment.

The Company is now organised by the following operating segments: IT Services, IT Products and India State Run 
Enterprise segment (ISRE).        

Comparative information has been restated to give effect to the above changes.

IT Services: The IT Services segment primarily consists of IT Service offerings to customers organised by industry 
verticals. Effective April 1, 2018, consequent to change in organisation structure, the Company reorganised its 
industry  verticals. The  Manufacturing  (MFG)  and Technology  Business  unit  (TECH)  are  split  from  the  former 
Manufacturing & Technology (MNT) business unit.

The revised industry verticals are as follows: Banking, Financial Services and Insurance (BFSI), Health Business 
unit (Health BU) previously known as Health Care and Life Sciences Business unit (HLS), Consumer Business unit 
(CBU), Energy, Natural Resources & Utilities (ENU), Manufacturing (MFG), Technology (TECH) and Communications 
(COMM). Key service offerings to customers includes software application development and maintenance, research 
and development services for hardware and software design, business application services, analytics, consulting, 
infrastructure outsourcing services and business process services.

Comparative information has been restated to give effect to the above changes.

IT Products: The Company is a value-added reseller of desktops, servers, notebooks, storage products, networking 
solutions and packaged software for leading international brands. In certain total outsourcing contracts of the 
IT Services segment, the Company delivers hardware, software products and other related deliverables. Revenue 
relating to the above items is reported as revenue from the sale of IT Products.

India State Run Enterprise segment (ISRE): This segment consists of IT Services offerings to entities/ departments 
owned or controlled by Government of India and/ or any State Governments.

The Chairman and Managing Director of the Company has been identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker 
(CODM) as defined by Ind AS 108, “Operating Segments.” The Chairman of the Company evaluates the segments 
based on their revenue growth and operating income. 

Assets and liabilities used in the Company’s business are not identified to any of the operating segments, as these 
are used interchangeably between segments. Management believes that it is currently not practicable to provide 
segment disclosures relating to total assets and liabilities since a meaningful segregation of the available data 
is onerous.

No customer individually accounted for more than 10% of the revenues during the year ended March 31, 2019 and 
2018.

Management believes that it is currently not practicable to provide disclosure of geographical location wise assets, 
since the meaningful segregation of the available information is onerous.

Notes:

a) 

“Reconciling items” includes elimination of inter-segment transactions and other corporate activities. 

b)  Revenue from sale of traded cloud based licenses is reported as part of IT Services revenues. 

c)  For the purpose of segment reporting, the Company has included the impact of “foreign exchange gains / (losses), 
net” in revenues (which is reported as a part of operating profit in the consolidated statement of profit and loss). 

d)  For evaluating performance of the individual operating segments, stock compensation expense is allocated 
on  the  basis  of  straight  line  amortisation. The  differential  impact  of  accelerated  amortisation  of  stock 
compensation expense over stock compensation expense allocated to the individual operating segments is 
reported in reconciling items. 

e) 

The Company generally offers multi-year payment terms in certain total outsourcing contracts. These payment 
terms primarily relate to IT hardware, software and certain transformation services in outsourcing contracts. 
The finance income on deferred consideration earned under these contracts is included in the revenue of the 
respective segment and is eliminated under reconciling items.

f) 

Segment results for ENU and COMM industry vertical for year ended March 31, 2018 is after considering the 
impact of provision by ` 3,175 and ` 1,437 for impairment of receivables and deferred contract costs.

disposal of Wipro Airport IT Services Limited, amounting to ` 4,344, is included as part of IT services segment 
result for the year ended March 31, 2019, respectively. Refer Note 21.

h)  Segment results for ENU industry vertical for the year ended March 31, 2019, is after considering the impact 

of ` 5,141 ($ 75) paid to National Grid on settlement of a legal claim against the Company.

i)

and ` 1,402 for the year ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 are respectively. The share-based compensation

40.   As part of a customer contract with Alight LLC, Wipro has acquired Alight HR Services India Private Limited (currently 
known as Wipro HR Services India Private Limited) for a consideration of ` 8,275 (USD 117). Considering the terms 
and conditions of the agreement, the Company has concluded that this transaction does not meet the definition 
of Business under Ind AS 103. The transaction was consummated on September 1, 2018. Net assets taken over 
was ` 4,128. The excess of consideration paid and net assets taken over is accounted as ‘costs to obtain contract’, 
which will be amortised over the tenure of the contract as reduction in revenues.

Independent Auditor’s Report 

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Wipro 
Limited  

revenue from contracts with customers in fiscal year 2019 
due to the adoption of International Financial Reporting 
Standard 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

Opinion on the Financial Statements 

We  have  audited  the  accompanying  consolidated 
statements  of  financial  position  of  Wipro  Limited  and 
subsidiaries  (the “Company”)  as  of  March  31,  2019  and 
2018,  the  related  consolidated  statements  of  income, 
consolidated  statements  of  comprehensive  income, 
consolidated  statements  of  changes  in  equity,  and 
consolidated  statements  of  cash  flows  for  each  of  the 
two  years  in  the  period  ended  March  31,  2019  and  the 
related  notes  (collectively  referred  to  as  the “financial 
statements”).  In  our  opinion,  the  financial  statements 
present  fairly,  in  all  material  respects,  the  financial 
position of the Company as of March 31, 2019 and March 
31,  2018,  and  the  results  of  its  operations  and  its  cash 
flows for each of the two years in the period ended March 
31,  2019,  in  conformity  with  the  International  Financial 
Reporting  Standards  as  issued  by  the  International 
Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS”).

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards 
of  the  Public  Company  Accounting  Oversight  Board 
(United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control 
over financial reporting as of March 31, 2019, based on 
criteria  established  in  Internal  Control  —  Integrated 
Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring 
Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report 
dated June 7, 2019, expressed an unqualified opinion on 
the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Change in Accounting Principle

Basis for Opinion 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the 
Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express 
an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based 
on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered 
with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with 
respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal 
securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of 
the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards 
of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and 
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about 
whether  the  financial  statements  are  free  of  material 
misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits 
included  performing  procedures  to  assess  the  risks 
of  material  misstatement  of  the  financial  statements, 
whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures 
that  respond  to  those  risks.  Such  procedures  included 
examining,  on  a  test  basis,  evidence  regarding  the 
amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our 
audits also included evaluating the accounting principles 
used  and  significant  estimates  made  by  management, 
as  well  as  evaluating  the  overall  presentation  of  the 
financial statements. We believe that our audits provide 
a reasonable basis for our opinion.

WIPRO LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES 
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
(` in millions, except share and per share data, unless otherwise stated)

equity  shares  are  also  listed  on  the  New  York  Stock 
Exchange. 

These consolidated financial statements were authorized 
for issue by the Audit Committee on June 11, 2019.

2.   Basis  of  preparation  of  consolidated  financial 

statements 

(i)   Statement of compliance and basis of preparation 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared 
in  accordance  with  International  Financial  Reporting 
Standards and its interpretations (“IFRS”), as issued by 
the  International  Accounting  Standards  Board  (“IASB”). 
All  accounting  policies  have  been  applied  consistently 
to all periods presented in these consolidated financial 
statements except for new accounting standards adopted 
by the Company. 

The  consolidated  financial  statements  correspond  to 
the classification provisions contained in IAS 1(revised), 
“Presentation  of  Financial  Statements”.  For  clarity, 
various items are aggregated in the statement of income 
and  statement  of  financial  position.  These  items  are 
disaggregated separately in the notes to the consolidated 
financial statements, where applicable. 

All  amounts  included  in  the  consolidated  financial 
statements  are  reported  in  millions  of  Indian  rupees 
(`  in  millions)  except  share  and  per  share  data,  unless 
otherwise  stated.  Due  to  rounding  off,  the  numbers 
presented  throughout  the  document  may  not  add  up 
precisely to the totals and percentages may not precisely 
reflect the absolute figures. 

(ii) Basis of measurement 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared 
on a historical cost convention and on an accrual basis, 
except for the following material items which have been 
measured at fair value as required by relevant IFRS:

a.  Derivative financial instruments; 

b. 

 Financial instruments classified as fair value through 
other  comprehensive  income  or  fair  value  through 
profit or loss; 

c. 

 The defined benefit asset/ (liability) is recognized as 
the present value of defined benefit obligation less 
fair value of plan assets; and 

d.  Contingent consideration.

(iii)   Convenience translation (unaudited) 

The  accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements 
have  been  prepared  and  reported  in  Indian  rupees,  the 
functional currency of the Parent Company. Solely for the 
convenience  of  the  readers,  the  consolidated  financial 
statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2019, 
have  been  translated  into  United  States  dollars  at  the 
certified  foreign  exchange  rate  of  US$1  =  `  69.16  as 
published by Federal Reserve Board of Governors on March 
31, 2019. No representation is made that the Indian rupee 
amounts have been, could have been or could be converted 
into United States dollars at such a rate or any other rate. 
Due  to  rounding  off,  the  translated  numbers  presented 
throughout  the  document  may  not  add  up  precisely  to 
the totals. 

(iv)   Use of estimates and judgment 

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements 
in  conformity  with  IFRS  requires  management  to  make 
judgments,  estimates  and  assumptions  that  affect  the 
application  of  accounting  policies  and  the  reported 
amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual 
results may differ from those estimates.

Estimates  and  underlying  assumptions  are  reviewed 
on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates 
are recognized in the period in which the estimates are 
revised and in any future periods affected. In particular, 
information  about  significant  areas  of  estimation 
uncertainty and critical judgments in applying accounting 
policies  that  have  the  most  significant  effect  on  the 
amounts  recognized  in  the  consolidated  financial 
statements are included in the following notes:

a)  Revenue recognition: The Company applies judgement 
to determine whether each product or services promised 
to  a  customer  are  capable  of  being  distinct,  and  are 
distinct in the context of the contract, if not, the promised 
product  or  services  are  combined  and  accounted  as  a 
single  performance  obligation. The  Company  allocates 
the arrangement consideration to separately identifiable 
performance obligation deliverables based on their relative 
stand-alone selling price. In cases where the Company is 
unable  to  determine  the  stand-alone  selling  price  the 
company  uses  expected  cost-plus  margin  approach  in 
estimating  the  stand-alone  selling  price. The  Company 
uses the percentage of completion method using the input 
(cost  expended)  method  to  measure  progress  towards 
completion in respect of fixed price contracts. Percentage 
of completion method accounting relies on estimates of 
total expected contract revenue and costs. This method 
is followed when reasonably dependable estimates of the 

297

Consolidated Financial Statements Under IFRSAnnual Report 2018-19revenues and costs applicable to various elements of the 
contract  can  be  made.  Key  factors  that  are  reviewed  in 
estimating the future costs to complete include estimates 
of future labor costs and productivity efficiencies. Because 
the  financial  reporting  of  these  contracts  depends  on 
estimates that are assessed continually during the term of 
these contracts, revenue recognized, profit and timing of 
revenue for remaining performance obligations are subject 
to  revisions  as  the  contract  progresses  to  completion. 
When estimates indicate that a loss will be incurred, the 
loss is provided for in the period in which the loss becomes 
probable. Volume discounts are recorded as a reduction 
of revenue. When the amount of discount varies with the 
levels of revenue, volume discount is recorded based on 
estimate of future revenue from the customer 

b) 
Impairment  testing:  Goodwill  and  intangible 
assets  with  infinite  useful  life  recognized  on  business 
combination are tested for impairment at least annually 
and  when  events  occur  or  changes  in  circumstances 
indicate that the recoverable amount of the asset or the 
cash generating unit to which these pertain is less than 
the carrying value. The recoverable amount of the asset 
or the cash generating units is higher of value-in-use and 
fair value less cost of disposal. The calculation of value in 
use of a cash generating unit involves use of significant 
estimates  and  assumptions  which  includes  turnover, 
growth rates and net margins used to calculate projected 
future  cash  flows,  risk-adjusted  discount  rate,  future 
economic and market conditions. 

c) 
Income  taxes:The  major  tax  jurisdictions  for  the 
Company  are  India  and  the  United  States  of  America. 
Significant  judgments  are  involved  in  determining 
the  provision  for  income  taxes  including  judgment  on 
whether tax positions are probable of being sustained in 
tax assessments. A tax assessment can involve complex 
issues,  which  can  only  be  resolved  over  extended  time 
periods. 

d)  Deferred taxes: Deferred tax is recorded on temporary 
differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities 
and their carrying amounts, at the rates that have been 
enacted  or  substantively  enacted  at  the  reporting 
date. The  ultimate  realization  of  deferred  tax  assets  is 
dependent upon the generation of future taxable profits 
during the periods in which those temporary differences 
and  tax  loss  carry-forwards  become  deductible.  The 
Company considers the expected reversal of deferred tax 
liabilities and projected future taxable income in making 
this assessment. The amount of the deferred tax assets 
considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the 
near  term  if  estimates  of  future  taxable  income  during 
the carry-forward period are reduced. 

e)  Business  combination:  In  accounting  for  business 
combinations, judgment is required in identifying whether 
an identifiable intangible asset is to be recorded separately 
from  goodwill.  Additionally,  estimating  the  acquisition 
date fair value of the identifiable assets (including useful 
life  estimates)  and  liabilities  acquired,  and  contingent 
consideration assumed involves management judgment. 
These measurements are based on information available 

at  the  acquisition  date  and  are  based  on  expectations 
and assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by 
management.  Changes  in  these  judgments,  estimates, 
and  assumptions  can  materially  affect  the  results  of 
operations. 

f)  Defined benefit plans and compensated absences: The 
cost of the defined benefit plans, compensated absences 
and the present value of the defined benefit obligations are 
based on actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit 
method.  An  actuarial  valuation  involves  making  various 
assumptions that may differ from actual developments in 
the future. These include the determination of the discount 
rate, future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the 
complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term 
nature,  a  defined  benefit  obligation  is  highly  sensitive 
to  changes  in  these  assumptions.  All  assumptions  are 
reviewed at each reporting date. 

g)  Expected  credit  losses  on  financial  assets:  The 
impairment  provisions  of  financial  assets  and  contract 
assets  are  based  on  assumptions  about  risk  of  default 
and  expected  timing  of  collection.  The  Company  uses 
judgment  in  making  these  assumptions  and  selecting 
the  inputs  to  the  impairment  calculation,  based  on  the 
Company’s past history of collections, customer’s credit-
worthiness, existing market conditions as well as forward 
looking estimates at the end of each reporting period. 

h)  Measurement of fair value of non-marketable equity 
investments:  These  instruments  are  initially  recorded 
at  cost  and  subsequently  measured  at  fair  value.  Fair 
value  of  investments  is  determined  using  the  market 
and income approaches. The market approach includes 
the  use  of  financial  metrics  and  ratios  of  comparable 
companies,  such  as  revenue,  earnings,  comparable 
performance multiples, recent financial rounds and the 
level of marketability of the investments. The selection of 
comparable companies requires management judgment 
and is based on a number of factors, including comparable 
company sizes, growth rates, and development stages. The 
income approach includes the use of discounted cash flow 
model, which requires significant estimates regarding the 
investees’  revenue,  costs,  and  discount  rates  based  on 
the  risk  profile  of  comparable  companies.  Estimates  of 
revenue and costs are developed using available historical 
and forecast data. 

i) 
Useful  lives  of  property,  plant  and  equipment:The 
Company depreciates property, plant and equipment on 
a  straight-line  basis  over  estimated  useful  lives  of  the 
assets. The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is 
derived based on an estimate of an asset’s expected useful 
life and the expected residual value at the end of its life. 
The  life  are  based  on  historical  experience  with  similar 
assets  as  well  as  anticipation  of  future  events,  which 
may impact their life, such as changes in technology. The 
estimated useful life is reviewed at least annually.

j) 
Useful  lives  of  intangible  assets:The  Company 
amortizes intangible assets on a straight-line basis over 
estimated  useful  lives  of  the  assets.  The  useful  life  is 

298

Consolidated Financial Statements Under IFRSWipro Limited 
estimated  based  on  a  number  of  factors  including  the 
effects of obsolescence, demand, competition and other 
economic  factors  such  as  the  stability  of  the  industry 
and  known  technological  advances  and  the  level  of 
maintenance expenditures required to obtain the expected 
future cash flows from the assets. The estimated useful 
life is reviewed at least annually.

k)   Other  estimates:  The  share-based  compensation 
expense is determined based on the Company’s estimate 
of  equity  instruments  that  will  eventually  vest.  Fair 
valuation of derivative hedging instruments designated as 
cash flow hedges involves significant estimates relating 
to the occurrence of forecast transaction. 

3.   Significant accounting policies 

(i)   Basis of consolidation 

Subsidiaries and controlled trusts

The Company determines the basis of control in line with 
the  requirements  of  IFRS  10,  Consolidated  Financial 
Statements. Subsidiaries and controlled trusts are entities 
controlled  by  the  Group.  The  Group  controls  an  entity 
when the parent has power over the entity, it is exposed 
to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement 
with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns 
through its power over the entity. The financial statements 
of subsidiaries and controlled trusts are included in the 
consolidated financial statements from the date on which 
control commences until the date on which control ceases.

All  intra-Group  balances,  transactions,  income  and 
expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation. 

Non-controlling interest

Non-controlling  interests  in  the  net  assets  (excluding 
goodwill)  of  consolidated  subsidiaries  are  identified 
separately  from  the  Company’s  equity.  The  interest  of 
non-controlling shareholders may be initially measured 
either  at  fair  value  or  at  the  non-controlling  interest’s 
proportionate  share  of  the  fair  value  of  the  acquiree’s 
identifiable  net  assets.  The  choice  of  measurement 
basis  is  made  on  an  acquisition  to  acquisition  basis. 
Subsequent to acquisition, the carrying amount of non-
controlling  interest  is  the  amount  of  those  interests  at 
initial recognition plus the non-controlling interest’s share 
of  subsequent  changes  in  equity. Total  comprehensive 
income is attributed to non-controlling interests even if 
it results in the non-controlling interest having a deficit 
balance. 

Investments accounted for using the equity method

Investments accounted for using the equity method are 
entities in respect of which, the Company has significant 
influence, but not control, over the financial and operating 
policies. Generally, a Company has a significant influence if 
it holds between 20 and 50 percent of the voting power of 
another entity. Investments in such entities are accounted 
for using the equity method and are initially recognized 
at cost. The carrying amount of investment is increased/ 
decreased to recognized investors share of profit or loss 
of the investee after the acquisition date.

Non current assets and disposal groups held for sale

Assets of disposal groups that is available for immediate 
sale  and  where  the  sale  is  highly  probable  of  being 
completed within one year from the date of classification 
are  considered  and  classified  as  assets  held  for  sale. 
Non current assets and disposal groups held for sale are 
measured at the lower of carrying amount and fair value 
less costs to sell.

(ii)   Functional and presentation currency 

Items included in the financial statements of each of the 
Company’s  entities  are  measured  using  the  currency  of 
the primary economic environment in which these entities 
operate (i.e. the “functional currency”). These consolidated 
financial statements are presented in Indian rupees, which 
is the functional currency of the Parent Company.

(iii)   Foreign currency transactions and translation 

a)   Transactions and balances 

Transactions  in  foreign  currency are  translated into the 
respective  functional  currencies  using  the  exchange 
rates  prevailing  at  the  date  of  the  transaction.  Foreign 
exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement 
of such transactions and from translation at the exchange 
rates prevailing at the reporting date of monetary assets 
and  liabilities  denominated  in  foreign  currencies  are 
recognized  in  the  consolidated  statement  of  income 
and  reported  within  foreign  exchange  gains/(losses), 
net,  within  results  of  operating  activities  except  when 
deferred  in  other  comprehensive  income  as  qualifying 
cash flow hedges and qualifying net investment hedges. 
Gains/(losses),  net  relating  to  translation  or  settlement 
of  borrowings  denominated  in  foreign  currency  are 
reported  within  finance  expense.  Non-monetary  assets 
and  liabilities  denominated  in  foreign  currency  and 
measured at historical cost are translated at the exchange 
rate  prevalent  at  the  date  of  transaction.  Translation 
differences on non-monetary financial assets measured 
at  fair  value  at  the  reporting  date,  such  as  equities 
classified as financial instruments measured at fair value 
through other comprehensive income are included in other 
comprehensive income, net of taxes. 

b)   Foreign operations 

For  the  purpose  of  presenting  consolidated  financial 
statements,  the  assets  and  liabilities  of  the  Company’s 
foreign operations that have a functional currency other 
than Indian rupees are translated into Indian rupees using 
exchange rates prevailing at the reporting date. Income 
and expense items are translated at the average exchange 
rates for the period. Exchange differences arising, if any, 
are recognized in other comprehensive income and held in 
foreign currency translation reserve (FCTR), a component of 
equity, except to the extent that the translation difference 
is  allocated  to  non-controlling  interest.  When  a  foreign 
operation is disposed of, the relevant amount recognized 
in FCTR is transferred to the consolidated statement of 
income as part of the profit or loss on disposal. Goodwill 
and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a 
foreign operation are treated as assets and liabilities of 

299

Consolidated Financial Statements Under IFRSAnnual Report 2018-19the foreign operation and translated at the exchange rate 
prevailing at the reporting date. 

c)   Others 

Foreign currency differences arising on the translation or 
settlement of a financial liability designated as a hedge 
of a net investment in a foreign operation are recognized 
in  other  comprehensive  income  and  presented  within 
equity  in  the  FCTR  to  the  extent  the  hedge  is  effective. 
To  the  extent  the  hedge  is  ineffective,  such  differences 
are recognized in the consolidated statement of income. 

When the hedged part of a net investment is disposed of, 
the  relevant  amount  recognized  in  FCTR  is  transferred 
to the consolidated statement of income as part of the 
profit  or  loss  on  disposal.  Foreign  currency  differences 
arising  from  translation  of  intercompany  receivables  or 
payables  relating  to  foreign  operations,  the  settlement 
of which is neither planned nor likely in the foreseeable 
future, are considered to form part of net investment in 
foreign operation and are recognized in FCTR. 

(iv)   Financial instruments 

A)   Non-derivative financial instruments: 

Non-derivative financial instruments consist of: 

• 

 financial assets include cash and cash equivalents, 
trade  receivables,  unbilled  receivables,  finance 
lease  receivables,  employee  and  other  advances, 
investments  in  equity  and  debt  securities  and 
eligible  current  and  non-current  assets;  Financial 
assets are derecognized when substantial risks and 
rewards  of  ownership  of  the  financial  asset  have 
been  transferred.  In  cases  where  substantial  risks 
and  rewards  of  ownership  of  the  financial  assets 
are neither transferred nor retained, financial assets 
are  derecognized  only  when  the  Company  has  not 
retained control over the financial asset. 

• 

 financial liabilities include long and short-term loans 
and  borrowings,  bank  overdrafts,  trade  payables, 
eligible current and non-current liabilities. 

Non-derivative  financial  instruments  are  recognized 
initially  at  fair  value.  Subsequent  to  initial  recognition, 
non-derivative  financial  instruments  are  measured  as 
described below: 

a.   Cash and cash equivalents 

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents consist of cash 
on hand and in banks and demand deposits with banks, 
which can be withdrawn at any time, without prior notice 
or penalty on the principal. 

For  the  purposes  of  the  cash  flow  statement,  cash 
and  cash  equivalents  include  cash  on  hand,  in  banks 
and  demand  deposits  with  banks,  net  of  outstanding 
bank  overdrafts  that  are  repayable  on  demand  and  are 
considered  part  of  the  Company’s  cash  management 
system.  In  the  consolidated  statement  of  financial 
position, bank overdrafts are presented under borrowings 
within current liabilities. 

300

b.  

Investments 

Financial instruments measured at amortized cost: 

Debt  instruments  that  meet  the  following  criteria  are 
measured at amortized cost (except for debt instruments 
that  are  designated  at  fair  value  through  Profit  or  Loss 
(FVTPL) on initial recognition): 

• 

• 

 the  asset  is  held  within  a  business  model  whose 
objective  is  to  hold  assets  in  order  to  collect 
contractual cash flows; and 

 the contractual terms of the instrument give rise on 
specified dates to cash flows that are solely payment 
of  principal  and  interest  on  the  principal  amount 
outstanding. 

Financial instruments measured at fair value through other 
comprehensive income (FVTOCI): 

Debt  instruments  that  meet  the  following  criteria  are 
measured  at  fair  value  through  other  comprehensive 
income  (FVTOCI)  (except  for  debt  instruments  that  are 
designated at fair value through Profit or Loss (FVTPL) on 
initial recognition): 

• 

• 

 the  asset  is  held  within  a  business  model  whose 
objective is achieved both by collecting contractual 
cash flows and selling the financial asset; and 

 the contractual terms of the instrument give rise on 
specified dates to cash flows that are solely payment 
of  principal  and  interest  on  the  principal  amount 
outstanding. 

Interest  income  is  recognized  in  the  consolidated 
statement of income for FVTOCI debt instruments. Other 
changes  in  fair  value  of  FVTOCI  financial  assets  are 
recognized  in  other  comprehensive  income.  When  the 
investment  is  disposed  of,  the  cumulative  gain  or  loss 
previously accumulated in reserves is transferred to the 
consolidated statement of income. 

Financial instruments measured at fair value through profit 
or loss (FVTPL): 

Instruments that do not meet the amortized cost or FVTOCI 
criteria are measured at FVTPL. Financial assets at FVTPL 
are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting 
period, with any gains or losses arising on re-measurement 
recognized  in  consolidated  statement  of  income.  The 
gain or loss on disposal is recognized in the consolidated 
statement of income. 

Interest  income  is  recognized  in  the  consolidated 
statement of income for FVTPL debt instruments. Dividend 
on  financial  assets  at  FVTPL  is  recognized  when  the 
Group’s right to receive dividend is established. 

Investments  in  equity  instruments  designated  to  be 
classified as FVTOCI: 

The Company carries certain equity instruments which are 
not held for trading. The Company has elected the FVTOCI 
irrevocable  option  for  these  instruments.  Movements 
in  fair  value  of  these  investments  are  recognized  in 
other comprehensive income and the gain or loss is not 
transferred  to  consolidated  statement  of  income  on 

Consolidated Financial Statements Under IFRSWipro Limiteddisposal  of  these  investments.  Dividends  from  these 
investments are recognized in the consolidated statement 
of income when the Company’s right to receive dividends 
is established. 

c.   Other financial assets: 

Other financial assets are non-derivative financial assets 
with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted 
in an active market. They are presented as current assets, 
except  for  those  maturing  later  than  12  months  after 
the  reporting  date  which  are  presented  as  non-current 
assets. These  are  initially  recognized  at  fair  value  and 
subsequently  measured  at  amortized  cost  using  the 
effective  interest  method,  less  any  impairment  losses. 
These  comprise  trade  receivables,  unbilled  receivables 
and other assets. 

d.   Trade and other payables 

Trade  and  other  payables  are  initially  recognized  at 
fair  value,  and  subsequently  carried  at  amortized  cost 
using  the  effective  interest  method.  For  these  financial 
instruments, the carrying amounts approximate fair value 
due  to  the  short-term  maturity  of  these  instruments. 
Contingent  consideration  recognized  in  the  business 
combination  is  subsequently  measured  at  fair  value 
through profit or loss.

B)   Derivative financial instruments 

The Company is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations 
on foreign currency assets, liabilities, net investment in 
foreign operations and forecasted cash flows denominated 
in foreign currency. 

The  Company  limits  the  effect  of  foreign  exchange  rate 
fluctuations  by  following  established  risk  management 
policies  including  the  use  of  derivatives. The  Company 
enters  into  derivative  financial  instruments  where  the 
counterparty is primarily a bank. 

Derivatives  are  recognized  and  measured  at  fair  value. 
Attributable  transaction  costs  are  recognized  in 
consolidated statement of income as cost. 

Subsequent  to  initial  recognition,  derivative  financial 
instruments are measured as described below: 

a.   Cash flow hedges 

Changes  in  the  fair  value  of  the  derivative  hedging 
instrument  designated  as  a  cash  flow  hedge  are 
recognized  in  other  comprehensive  income  and  held  in 
cash  flow  hedging  reserve,  net  of  taxes,  a  component 
of  equity,  to  the  extent  that  the  hedge  is  effective.  To 
the  extent  that  the  hedge  is  ineffective,  changes  in  fair 
value  are  recognized  in  the  consolidated  statement  of 
income  and  reported  within  foreign  exchange  gains/
(losses),  net  within  results  from  operating  activities.  If 
the hedging instrument no longer meets the criteria for 
hedge accounting, then hedge accounting is discontinued 
prospectively. If the hedging instrument expires or is sold, 
terminated or exercised, the cumulative gain or loss on 
the hedging instrument recognized in cash flow hedging 
reserve till the period the hedge was effective remains in 
cash flow hedging reserve until the forecasted transaction 

occurs. The cumulative gain or loss previously recognized 
in  the  cash  flow  hedging  reserve  is  transferred  to  the 
consolidated statement of income (gross revenues) upon 
the  occurrence of  the related  forecasted transaction. If 
the forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, 
such cumulative balance is immediately recognized in the 
consolidated statement of income. 

b.   Hedges of net investment in foreign operations 

The Company designates derivative financial instruments 
as  hedges  of  net  investments  in  foreign  operations. 
The  Company  has  also  designated  a  foreign  currency 
denominated  borrowing  as  a  hedge  of  net  investment 
in  foreign  operations.  Changes  in  the  fair  value  of  the 
derivative  hedging  instruments  and  gains/losses  on 
translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated 
borrowings  designated  as  a  hedge  of  net  investment  in 
foreign operations are recognized in other comprehensive 
income  and  presented  within  equity  in  the  FCTR  to  the 
extent that the hedge is effective. To the extent that the 
hedge is ineffective, changes in fair value are recognized 
in  the  consolidated  statement  of  income  and  reported 
within foreign exchange gains/(losses), net within results 
from operating activities. 

c.   Others 

Changes  in  fair  value  of  foreign  currency  derivative 
instruments  neither  designated  as  cash  flow  hedges 
nor  hedges  of  net  investment  in  foreign  operations  are 
recognized  in  the  consolidated  statement  of  income 
and reported within foreign exchange gains/(losses), net 
within  results  from  operating  activities.  Changes  in  fair 
value  and  gains/(losses),  net  on  settlement  of  foreign 
currency  derivative  instruments  relating  to  borrowings, 
which have not been designated as hedges are recorded 
in finance expense. 

C)   Derecognition of financial instruments 

The  Company  derecognizes  a  financial  asset  when  the 
contractual  rights  to  the  cash  flows  from  the  financial 
asset  expire  or  it  transfers  the  financial  asset  and  the 
transfer  qualifies  for  derecognition  under  IFRS  9.  If  the 
Company retains substantially all the risks and rewards 
of a transferred financial asset, the Company continues 
to  recognize  the  financial  asset  and  also  recognizes  a 
borrowing for the proceeds received. A financial liability 
(or a part of a financial liability) is derecognized from the 
group’s balance sheet when the obligation specified in the 
contract is discharged or cancelled or expires. 

(v)   Equity and share capital 

a)   Share capital and Securities premium reserve

The authorized share capital of the Company as at March 
31, 2019 is ` 25,274 divided into 12,504,500,000 equity 
shares of ` 2 each, 25,000,000 preference shares of ` 10 
each and 150,000 10% optionally convertible cumulative 
preference shares of ` 100 each. Par value of the equity 
shares  is  recorded  as  share  capital  and  the  amount 
received in excess of par value is classified as securities 
premium reserve. 

301

Consolidated Financial Statements Under IFRSAnnual Report 2018-19Every  holder  of  the  equity  shares,  as  reflected  in  the 
records of the Company, as at the date of the shareholder 
meeting  shall  have  one  vote  in  respect  of  each  share 
held for all matters submitted to vote in the shareholder 
meeting. 

b)   Shares held by controlled trust (Treasury shares) 

The Company’s equity shares held by the controlled trust, 
which is consolidated as a part of the Group are classified 
as  Treasury  shares.  The  Company  has  13,728,607, 
23,097,216 and 27,353,853 treasury shares as at March 
31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively. Treasury shares are 
recorded at acquisition cost.

c)   Retained earnings 

Retained  earnings  comprises  of  the  Company’s 
undistributed  earnings  after  taxes.  A  portion  of  these 
earnings amounting as at March 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019 
to  `  1,139,  `  1,139,  and  `  1,139  respectively,  represents 
capital reserve and Nil, Nil and ` 28,565 as at March 31, 2017, 
2018 and 2019, respectively, represents Special economic 
zone re-investment reserve which is not freely available for 
distribution.

d)   Share-based payment reserve 

The share-based payment reserve is used to record the 
value of equity-settled share-based payment transactions 
with  employees. The  amounts  recorded  in  share-based 
payment  reserve  are  transferred  to  securities  premium 
reserve upon exercise of stock options and restricted stock 
unit options by employees. 

e)   Foreign currency translation reserve (FCTR) 

The exchange differences arising from the translation of 
financial statements of foreign subsidiaries, differences 
arising  from  translation  of  long-term  inter-company 
receivables  or  payables  relating  to  foreign  operations 
settlement  of  which  is  neither  planned  nor  likely  in  the 
foreseeable future, changes in fair value of the derivative 
hedging instruments and gains/losses on translation or 
settlement of foreign currency denominated borrowings 
designated  as  hedge  of  net  investment  in  foreign 
operations are recognized in other comprehensive income, 
net of taxes and presented within equity in the FCTR. 

f)   Cash flow hedging reserve 

Changes in fair value of derivative hedging instruments 
designated  and  effective  as  a  cash  flow  hedge  are 
recognized in other comprehensive income (net of taxes) 
and presented within equity as cash flow hedging reserve. 

g)   Other reserves 

Changes  in  the  fair  value  of  financial  instruments 
measured  at  fair  value  through  other  comprehensive 
income and actuarial gains and losses on defined benefit 
plans are recognized in other comprehensive income (net 
of taxes) and presented within equity in other reserves. 

Other  reserves  also  include  Capital  redemption  reserve 
as at March 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019 amounting to ` 80, 
` 767 and Nil, respectively, which is not freely available 
for distribution.

302

h)   Dividend 

A final dividend, including tax thereon, on common stock 
is  recorded  as  a  liability  on  the  date  of  approval  by  the 
shareholders. An interim dividend, including tax thereon, 
is recorded as a liability on the date of declaration by the 
board of directors.

i)   Buyback of equity shares

The  buyback  of  equity  shares  and  related  transaction 
costs  are  recorded  as  a  reduction  of  free  reserves. 
Further,  capital  redemption  reserves  are  created  as  an 
apportionment from retained earnings.

(vi)   Property, plant and equipment 

a)   Recognition and measurement 

Property,  plant  and  equipment  are  measured  at  cost 
less  accumulated  depreciation  and  impairment  losses, 
if  any.  Cost  includes  expenditures  directly  attributable 
to  the  acquisition  of  the  asset.  General  and  specific 
borrowing costs directly attributable to the construction 
of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the cost.

Capital  work-  in-progress  are  measured  at  cost  less 
accumulated impairment losses, if any.

b)   Depreciation 

The Company depreciates property, plant and equipment 
over  the  estimated  useful  life  on  a  straight-line  basis 
from  the  date  the  assets  are  available  for  use.  Assets 
acquired under finance lease and leasehold improvements 
are  amortized  over  the  shorter  of  estimated  useful  life 
of the asset or the related lease term. Term licenses are 
amortized over their respective contract term. Freehold 
land is not depreciated. The estimated useful life of assets 
is reviewed and where appropriate are adjusted, annually. 
The estimated useful lives of assets are as follows: 

Category 
Buildings
Plant and machinery
Computer equipment and software
Furniture, fixtures and equipment
Vehicles

Useful life  
28 to 40 years
5 to 21 years
2 to 7 years
3 to 10 years
4 to 5 years

When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment 
have  different  useful  lives,  they  are  accounted  for  as 
separate items (major components) of property, plant and 
equipment. Subsequent expenditure relating to property, 
plant and equipment is capitalized only when it is probable 
that  future  economic  benefits  associated  with  these 
will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be 
measured reliably. 

Deposits  and  advances  paid  towards  the  acquisition 
of  property,  plant  and  equipment  outstanding  as  at 
each reporting date and the cost of property, plant and 
equipment  not  available  for  use  before  such  date  are 
disclosed under capital work- in-progress. 

Consolidated Financial Statements Under IFRSWipro Limited(vii)    Business  combination,  Goodwill  and  Intangible 

assets 

a)   Business combination 
Business  combinations  are  accounted  for  using  the 
purchase (acquisition) method. The cost of an acquisition 
is measured as the fair value of the assets transferred, 
liabilities  incurred  or  assumed,  and  equity  instruments 
issued at the date of exchange by the Company. Identifiable 
assets acquired, and liabilities and contingent liabilities 
assumed in a business combination are measured initially 
at fair value at the date of acquisition. Transaction costs 
incurred  in  connection  with  a  business  acquisition  are 
expensed as incurred. 

The cost of an acquisition also includes the fair value of 
any contingent consideration measured as at the date of 
acquisition. Any subsequent changes to the fair value of 
contingent  consideration  classified  as  liabilities,  other 
than  measurement  period  adjustments,  are  recognized 
in the consolidated statement of income. 

b)   Goodwill 
The excess of the cost of an acquisition over the Company’s 
share in the fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable assets, 
liabilities  and  contingent  liabilities  is  recognized  as 
goodwill. If the excess is negative, a bargain purchase gain 
is recognized immediately in the consolidated statement 
of income. Goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated 
impairment (if any).

Goodwill associated with disposal of an operation that is 
part of cash-generating unit is measured on the basis of 
the relative values of the operation disposed of and the 
portion of the cash-generating unit retained, unless some 
other method better reflects the goodwill associated with 
the operation disposed. 

Intangible assets 

c)  
Intangible  assets  acquired  separately  are  measured 
at  cost  of  acquisition.  Intangible  assets  acquired  in  a 
business combination are measured at fair value as at the 
date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, intangible 
assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization 
and impairment losses, if any. 

The amortization of an intangible asset with a finite useful 
life reflects the manner in which the economic benefit is 
expected to be generated and is included in selling and 
marketing  expenses  in  the  consolidated  statement  of 
income. 

The  estimated  useful  life  of  amortizable  intangibles  are 
reviewed and where appropriate are adjusted, annually. The 
estimated useful lives of the amortizable intangible assets 
for the current and comparative periods are as follows: 

Category 
Customer-related intangibles
Marketing related intangibles

Useful life  
5 to 15 years
3 to 5 years

(viii) Leases 

The  determination  of  whether  an  arrangement  is,  or 
contains,  a  lease  is  based  on  the  substance  of  the 

arrangement  at  the  inception  date.  The  arrangement 
is, or contains a lease if, fulfillment of the arrangement 
is  dependent  on  the  use  of  a  specific  asset  or  assets 
or  the  arrangement  conveys  a  right  to  use  the  asset  or 
assets, even if that right is not explicitly specified in an 
arrangement. 

a)   Arrangements where the Company is the lessee 

Leases  of  property,  plant  and  equipment,  where  the 
Company assumes substantially all the risks and rewards 
of  ownership  are  classified  as  finance  leases.  Finance 
leases  are  capitalized  at  lower  of  the  fair  value  of  the 
leased  property  and  the  present  value  of  the  minimum 
lease  payments.  Lease  payments  are  apportioned 
between the finance charge and the outstanding liability. 
The  finance  charge  is  allocated  to  periods  during  the 
lease term at a constant periodic rate of interest on the 
remaining balance of the liability. 

Leases where the lessor retains substantially all the risks 
and  rewards  of  ownership  are  classified  as  operating 
leases.  Payments  made  under  operating  leases  are 
recognized in the consolidated statement of income on a 
straight-line basis over the lease term. 

b)   Arrangements where the Company is the lessor 

In certain arrangements, the Company recognizes revenue 
from the sale of products given under finance leases. The 
Company  records  gross  finance  receivables,  unearned 
income  and  the  estimated  residual  value  of  the  leased 
equipment  on  consummation  of  such  leases.  Unearned 
income represents the excess of the gross finance lease 
receivable plus the estimated residual value over the sales 
price of the equipment. The Company recognizes unearned 
income as finance income over the lease term using the 
effective interest method. 

(ix)   Inventories 

Inventories are valued at lower of cost and net realizable 
value,  including  necessary  provision  for  obsolescence. 
Cost is determined using the weighted average method. 

(x)  

Impairment 

A)   Financial assets 

The Company applies the expected credit loss model for 
recognizing impairment loss on financial assets measured 
at amortized cost, debt instruments classified as FVTOCI, 
trade  receivables,  lease  receivables,  contract  assets 
and  other  financial  assets.  Expected  credit  loss  is  the 
difference  between  the  contractual  cash  flows  and  the 
cash flows that the entity expects to receive, discounted 
using the effective interest rate. 

Loss  allowances  for  trade  receivables  and  lease 
receivables are measured at an amount equal to lifetime 
expected credit loss. Lifetime expected credit losses are 
the  expected  credit  losses  that  result  from  all  possible 
default  events  over  the  expected  life  of  a  financial 
instrument.  Lifetime  expected  credit  loss  is  computed 
based  on  a  provision  matrix  which  takes  in  to  account 
risk  profiling  of  customers  and  historical  credit  loss 
experience adjusted for forward looking information. For 

303

Consolidated Financial Statements Under IFRSAnnual Report 2018-19other financial assets, expected credit loss is measured at 
the amount equal to twelve months expected credit loss 
unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk 
from initial recognition, in which case those are measured 
at lifetime expected credit loss.

B)   Non-financial assets 

The Company assesses long-lived assets such as property, 
plant,  equipment  and  acquired  intangible  assets  for 
impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances 
indicate  that  the  carrying  amount  of  an  asset  or  group 
of assets may not be recoverable. If any such indication 
exists, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of 
the asset or group of assets. The recoverable amount of an 
asset or cash generating unit is the higher of its fair value 
less cost of disposal (FVLCD) and its value-in-use (VIU). The 
VIU of long-lived assets is calculated using projected future 
cash flows. FVLCD of a cash generating unit is computed 
using turnover and earnings multiples. If the recoverable 
amount  of  the  asset  or  the  recoverable  amount  of  the 
cash generating unit to which the asset belongs is less 
than its carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced 
to its recoverable amount. The reduction is treated as an 
impairment  loss  and  is  recognized  in  the  consolidated 
statement of income. If at the reporting date, there is an 
indication that a previously assessed impairment loss no 
longer exists, the recoverable amount is reassessed and 
the impairment losses previously recognized are reversed 
such that the asset is recognized at its recoverable amount 
but not exceeding written down value which would have 
been  reported  if  the  impairment  losses  had  not  been 
recognized initially. 

Goodwill  is  tested  for  impairment  at  least  annually  at 
the  same  time  and  when  events  occur  or  changes  in 
circumstances  indicate  that  the  recoverable  amount  of 
the cash generating unit is less than its carrying value. The 
goodwill impairment test is performed at the level of cash-
generating unit or groups of cash -generating units which 
represents the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored 
for  internal  management  purposes.  An  impairment  in 
respect of goodwill is not reversed. 

(xi)   Employee benefits 

Post-employment and pension plans 

The  Group  participates  in  various  employee  benefit 
plans. Pensions and other post-employment benefits are 
classified as either defined contribution plans or defined 
benefit  plans.  Under  a  defined  contribution  plan,  the 
Company’s only obligation is to pay a fixed amount with 
no obligation to pay further contributions if the fund does 
not hold sufficient assets to pay all employee benefits. The 
related actuarial and investment risks are borne by the 
employee. The expenditure for defined contribution plans 
is recognized as an expense during the period when the 
employee provides service. Under a defined benefit plan, 
it is the Company’s obligation to provide agreed benefits to 
the employees. The related actuarial and investment risks 
are borne by the Company. The present value of the defined 
benefit  obligations  is  calculated  by  an  independent 
actuary using the projected unit credit method. 

Remeasurement  comprising  actuarial  gains  or  losses 
and  the  return  on  plan  assets  (excluding  interest)  are 
immediately recognized in other comprehensive income, 
net  of  taxes  and  permanently  excluded  from  profit  or 
loss.  Instead  net  interest  recognized  in  profit  or  loss  is 
calculated by applying the discount rate used to measure 
the defined benefit obligation to the net defined benefit 
liability  or  asset. The  actual  return  on  the  plan  assets 
above or below the discount rate is recognized as part of 
remeasurement of net defined liability or asset through 
other comprehensive income, net of taxes. 

The Company has the following employee benefit plans: 

a.   Provident fund 

Employees receive benefits from a provident fund, which 
is  a  defined  benefit  plan. The  employer  and  employees 
each make periodic contributions to the plan. A portion of 
the contribution is made to the approved provident fund 
trust  managed  by  the  Company  while  the  remainder  of 
the contribution is made to the government administered 
pension fund. The contributions to the trust managed by 
the Company is accounted for as a defined benefit plan as 
the Company is liable for any shortfall in the fund assets 
based  on  the  government  specified  minimum  rates  of 
return. 

b.   Superannuation 

Superannuation  plan,  a  defined  contribution  scheme  is 
administered by third party fund managers. The Company 
makes  annual  contributions  based  on  a  specified 
percentage of each eligible employee’s salary. 

c.   Gratuity 

In  accordance  with  the  Payment  of  Gratuity  Act,  1972, 
applicable for Indian companies, the Company provides for 
a lump sum payment to eligible employees, at retirement 
or  termination  of  employment  based  on  the  last  drawn 
salary and years of employment with the Company. The 
gratuity fund is managed by third party fund managers. 
The Company’s obligation in respect of the gratuity plan, 
which is a defined benefit plan, is provided for based on 
actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method. 
The  Company  recognizes  actuarial  gains  and  losses  in 
other comprehensive income, net of taxes. 

d.   Termination benefits 

Termination benefits are expensed when the Company can 
no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits. 

e.   Short-term benefits 

Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on 
an undiscounted basis and are recorded as expense as the 
related service is provided. A liability is recognized for the 
amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus 
or profit-sharing plans, if the Company has a present legal 
or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of 
past service provided by the employee and the obligation 
can be estimated reliably. 

f.   Compensated absences 

The employees of the Company are entitled to compensated 

304

Consolidated Financial Statements Under IFRSWipro Limitedabsences. The  employees  can  carry  forward  a  portion  of 
the  unutilized  accumulating  compensated  absences  and 
utilize  it  in  future  periods  or  receive  cash  at  retirement 
or  termination  of  employment. The  Company  records  an 
obligation for compensated absences in the period in which 
the  employee  renders  the  services  that  increases  this 
entitlement. The Company measures the expected cost of 
compensated absences as the additional amount that the 
Company expects to pay as a result of the unused entitlement 
that has accumulated at the end of the reporting period. The 
Company recognizes accumulated compensated absences 
based on actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit 
method.  Non-accumulating  compensated  absences  are 
recognized in the period in which the absences occur. 

(xii)  Share-based payment transactions 

Selected employees of the Company receive remuneration 
in  the  form  of  equity  settled  instruments,  for  rendering 
services over a defined vesting period and for company’s 
performance-based  stock  options  over  the  defined 
period.  Equity  instruments  granted  are  measured  by 
reference to the fair value of the instrument at the date 
of grant. In cases, where equity instruments are granted 
at  a  nominal  exercise  price,  the  intrinsic  value  on  the 
date of grant approximates the fair value. The expense is 
recognized in the consolidated statement of income with 
a  corresponding  increase  to  the  share-based  payment 
reserve, a component of equity.

The equity instruments generally vest in a graded manner 
over  the  vesting  period.  The  fair  value  determined  at 
the  grant  date  is  expensed  over  the  vesting  period  of 
the  respective  tranches  of  such  grants  (accelerated 
amortization).  The  stock  compensation  expense  is 
determined based on the Company’s estimate of equity 
instruments that will eventually vest. 

(xiii)  Provisions 

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present 
obligation (legal or constructive), as a result of a past event, 
it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be 
required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can 
be made of the amount of the obligation. 

The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate 
of  the  consideration  required  to  settle  the  present 
obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into 
account  the  risks  and  uncertainties  surrounding  the 
obligation. 

When  some  or  all  of  the  economic  benefits  required  to 
settle  a  provision  are  expected  to  be  recovered  from  a 
third party, the receivable is recognized as an asset, if it is 
virtually certain that reimbursement will be received, and 
the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably. 

Provisions for onerous contracts are recognized when the 
expected benefits to be derived by the Company from a 
contract are lower than the unavoidable costs of meeting 
the future obligations under the contract. Provisions for 
onerous contracts are measured at the present value of 
lower of the expected net cost of fulfilling the contract and 
the expected cost of terminating the contract. 

(xiv)  Revenue 

The  Company  derives  revenue  primarily  from  software 
development,  maintenance  of  software/hardware  and 
related services, business process services, sale of IT and 
other products. 

Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised 
products  or  services  to  customers  in  an  amount  that 
reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive 
in exchange for those products or services. To recognize 
revenues,  the  Company  applies  the  following  five  step 
approach:  (1)  identify  the  contract  with  a  customer,  (2) 
identify  the  performance  obligations  in  the  contract, 
(3)  determine  the  transaction  price,  (4)  allocate  the 
transaction  price  to  the  performance  obligations  in  the 
contract, and (5) recognize revenues when a performance 
obligation is satisfied. 

At contract inception, the Company assesses its promise 
to transfer products or services to a customer to identify 
separate  performance  obligations.  The  Company 
applies  judgement  to  determine  whether  each  product 
or  service  promised  to  a  customer  is  capable  of  being 
distinct, and are distinct in the context of the contract, 
if  not,  the  promised  products  or  services  are  combined 
and  accounted  as  a  single  performance  obligation. The 
Company  allocates  the  arrangement  consideration  to 
separately  identifiable  performance  obligation  based 
on  their  relative  stand-alone  selling  price  or  residual 
method. Stand-alone selling prices are determined based 
on  sale  prices  for  the  components  when  it  is  regularly 
sold separately, in cases where the Company is unable to 
determine the stand-alone selling price the Company uses 
third-party prices for similar deliverables or the company 
uses expected cost-plus margin approach in estimating 
the stand-alone selling price.

For performance obligations where control is transferred 
over time, revenues are recognized by measuring progress 
towards  completion  of  the  performance  obligation. The 
selection  of  the  method  to  measure  progress  towards 
completion requires judgment and is based on the nature 
of the promised products or services to be provided.

The method for recognizing revenues and costs depends 
on the nature of the services rendered: 

A.   Time and materials contracts 

Revenues  and  costs  relating  to  time  and  materials  are 
recognized as the related services are rendered. 

B.   Fixed-price contracts

i.  

Fixed-price development contracts 

Revenues from fixed-price contracts, including software 
development,  and  integration  contracts,  where  the 
performance  obligations  are  satisfied  over  time,  are 
recognized  using  the  “percentage-of-completion” 
method. Percentage of completion is determined based 
on project costs incurred to date as a percentage of total 
estimated project costs required to complete the project. 
The  cost  expended  (or  input)  method  has  been  used 
to  measure  progress  towards  completion  as  there  is  a 

305

Consolidated Financial Statements Under IFRSAnnual Report 2018-19direct relationship between input and productivity. If the 
Company is not able to reasonably measure the progress 
of completion, revenue is recognized only to the extent of 
costs incurred, for which recoverability is probable. When 
total cost estimates exceed revenues in an arrangement, 
the estimated losses are recognized in the consolidated 
statement of income in the period in which such losses 
become probable based on the current contract estimates 
as an onerous contract provision. 

A  contract  asset  is  a  right  to  consideration  that  is 
conditional upon factors other than the passage of time. 
Contract assets primarily relate to unbilled amounts on 
fixed-price  development  contracts  and  are  classified 
as  non-financial  asset  as  the  contractual  right  to 
consideration is dependent on completion of contractual 
milestones.

A  contract  liability  is  an  entity’s  obligation  to  transfer 
goods or services to a customer for which the entity has 
received  consideration  (or  the  amount  is  due)  from  the 
customer.

Unbilled revenues on other than fixed price development 
contracts are classified as a financial asset where the right 
to consideration is unconditional upon passage of time

ii.   Maintenance contracts 

Revenues related to fixed-price maintenance, testing and 
business process services are recognized based on our 
right  to  invoice  for  services  performed  for  contracts  in 
which the invoicing is representative of the value being 
delivered.  If  our  invoicing  is  not  consistent  with  value 
delivered,  revenues  are  recognized  as  the  service  is 
performed using the percentage of completion method. 
When  services  are  performed  through  an  indefinite 
number of repetitive acts over a specified period, revenue 
is recognized on a straight-line basis over the specified 
period unless some other method better represents the 
stage of completion. 

In certain projects, a fixed quantum of service or output 
units is agreed at a fixed price for a fixed term. In such 
contracts,  revenue  is  recognized  with  respect  to  the 
actual output achieved till date as a percentage of total 
contractual  output.  Any  residual  service  unutilized  by 
the customer is recognized as revenue on completion of 
the term. 

iii.   Volume based contracts

Revenues and costs are recognized as the related services 
are rendered. 

C.   Products

Revenue  on  product  sales  are  recognized  when  the 
customer obtains control of the specified asset. 

D.   Others

• 

 Any  change  in  scope  or  price  is  considered  as  a 
contract  modification.  The  Company  accounts  for 
modifications  to  existing  contracts  by  assessing 
whether the services added are distinct and whether 
the  pricing  is  at  the  stand-alone  selling  price.

•

•

Services added that are not distinct are accounted for 
on a cumulative catch up basis, while those that are 
distinct are accounted for prospectively, either as a 
separate contract if the additional services are priced 
at the stand-alone selling price, or as a termination of 
the existing contract and creation of a new contract 
if not priced at the stand-alone selling price.

 The Company accounts for variable considerations 
like, volume discounts, rebates and pricing incentives 
to customers as reduction of revenue on a systematic 
and  rational  basis  over  the  period  of  the  contract. 
The Company estimates an amount of such variable 
consideration  using  expected  value  method  or  the 
single  most  likely  amount  in  a  range  of  possible 
consideration  depending  on  which  method  better 
predicts  the  amount  of  consideration  to  which  the 
Company may be entitled.

 Revenues  are  shown  net  of  allowances/  returns, 
sales  tax,  value  added  tax,  goods  and  services  tax 
and applicable discounts and allowances. 

 The  Company  accrues  the  estimated  cost  of 
warranties at the time when the revenue is recognized. 
The accruals are based on the Company’s historical 
experience  of  material  usage  and  service  delivery 
costs. 

 Incremental costs that relate directly to a contract 
and incurred in securing a contract with a customer 
are  recognized  as  an  asset  when  the  Company 
expects to recover these costs and amortized over 
the contract term. 

 The Company recognizes contract fulfilment cost as 
an asset if those costs specifically relate to a contract 
or to an anticipated contract, the costs generate or 
enhance  resources  that  will  be  used  in  satisfying 
performance obligations in future; and the costs are 
expected to be recovered. The asset so recognized is 
amortized on a systematic basis consistent with the 
transfer of goods or services to customer to which 
the asset relates.

 The  Company  assesses  the  timing  of  the  transfer 
of  goods  or  services  to  the  customer  as  compared 
to  the  timing  of  payments  to  determine  whether 
a  significant  financing  component  exists.  As  a 
practical  expedient,  the  Company  does  not  assess 
the existence of a significant financing component 
when the difference between payment and transfer 
of deliverables is a year or less. If the difference in 
timing arises for reasons other than the provision of 
finance  to  either  the  customer  or  us,  no  financing 
component is deemed to exist.

 The Company may enter into arrangements with third 
party suppliers to resell products or services. In such 
cases, the Company evaluates whether the Company 
is the principal (i.e. report revenues on a gross basis) 
or agent (i.e. report revenues on a net basis). In doing 
so, the Company first evaluates whether the Company 
controls the good or service before it is transferred to 
the customer. If Company controls the good or service 

Consolidated Financial Statements Under IFRSWipro Limitedbefore it is transferred to the customer, Company is 
the principal; if not, the Company is the agent.

(xv) Finance expenses 

Finance expenses comprises interest cost on borrowings, 
gains  or  losses  arising  on  re-measurement  of  financial 
assets measured at FVTPL, gains/ (losses) on translation 
or settlement of foreign currency borrowings and changes 
in fair value and gains/ (losses) on settlement of related 
derivative  instruments.  Borrowing  costs  that  are  not 
directly attributable to a qualifying asset are recognized in 
the consolidated statement of income using the effective 
interest method. 

(xvi) Finance and other income 

Finance and other income comprise interest income on 
deposits, dividend income and gains / (losses) on disposal 
of investments. Interest income is recognized using the 
effective interest method. Dividend income is recognized 
when the right to receive payment is established. 

(xvii) Income tax 

Income tax comprises current and deferred tax. Income 
tax expense is recognized in the consolidated statement 
of  income  except  to  the  extent  it  relates  to  a  business 
combination, or items directly recognized in equity or in 
other comprehensive income. 

a)   Current income tax 

Current income tax for the current and prior periods are 
measured at the amount expected to be recovered from 
or paid to the taxation authorities based on the taxable 
income  for  the  period. The  tax  rates  and  tax  laws  used 
to  compute  the  current  tax  amounts  are  those  that  are 
enacted or substantively enacted as at the reporting date 
and applicable for the period. The Company offsets current 
tax assets and current tax liabilities, where it has a legally 
enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and 
where it intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize 
the asset and liability simultaneously. 

b)   Deferred income tax 

Deferred  income  tax  is  recognized  using  the  balance 
sheet approach. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities 
are  recognized  for  deductible  and  taxable  temporary 
differences  arising  between  the  tax  base  of  assets 
and  liabilities  and  their  carrying  amount  in  financial 
statements, except when the deferred income tax arises 
from  the  initial  recognition  of  goodwill  or  an  asset  or 
liability in a transaction that is not a business combination 
and affects neither accounting nor taxable profits or loss 
at the time of the transaction. 

Deferred income tax assets are recognized to the extent 
it is probable that taxable profit will be available against 
which the deductible temporary differences and the carry 
forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can 
be utilized. 

Deferred  income  tax  liabilities  are  recognized  for  all 
taxable temporary differences except in respect of taxable 
temporary differences that is expected to reverse within 

the  tax  holiday  period,  taxable  temporary  differences 
associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates 
and  foreign  branches  where  the  timing  of  the  reversal 
of  the  temporary  difference  can  be  controlled  and  it  is 
probable  that  the  temporary  difference  will  not  reverse 
in the foreseeable future.

The  carrying  amount  of  deferred  income  tax  assets  is 
reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent 
that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit 
will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income 
tax asset to be utilized. 

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured 
at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period 
when the asset is realized, or the liability is settled, based 
on  tax  rates  (and  tax  laws)  that  have  been  enacted  or 
substantively enacted at the reporting date. 

The  Company  offsets  deferred  income  tax  assets  and 
liabilities, where it has a legally enforceable right to offset 
current tax assets against current tax liabilities, and they 
relate to taxes levied by the same taxation authority on 
either  the  same  taxable  entity,  or  on  different  taxable 
entities where there is an intention to settle the current 
tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets 
and liabilities will be realized simultaneously. 

(xviii) Earnings per share 

Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted 
average number of equity shares outstanding during the 
period adjusted for treasury shares held. Diluted earnings 
per share is computed using the weighted-average number 
of equity and dilutive equivalent shares outstanding during 
the period, using the treasury stock method for options, 
except where the results would be anti-dilutive. 

The  number  of  equity  shares  and  potentially  dilutive 
equity shares are adjusted retrospectively for all periods 
presented  for  any  splits  and  bonus  shares  issues 
including  for  change  effected  prior  to  the  approval  of 
the  consolidated  financial  statements  by  the  Board  of 
Directors.

(xix) Cash flow statement

Cash  flow  are  reported  using  the  indirect  method, 
whereby profit for the period is adjusted for the effects 
of  transactions  of  a  non-cash  nature,  any  deferrals  or 
accruals  of  past  or  future  operating  cash  receipts  or 
payments and item of income or expenses associated with 
investing or financing cash flows. The cash from operating, 
investing  and  financing  activities  of  the  Company  are 
segregated.

The  amendment  to  IAS  7,  require  entities  to  provide 
disclosures  about  changes  in  their  liabilities  arising 
from financing activities, including both changes arising 
from cash flows and non-cash changes (such as foreign 
exchange gains or losses).

(xx) Assets held for sale 

Sale  of  business  is  classified  as  held  for  sale,  if  their 
carrying amount is intended to be recovered principally 
through  sale  rather  than  through  continuing  use.  The 

307

Consolidated Financial Statements Under IFRSAnnual Report 2018-19condition for classification as held for sale is met when 
disposal business is available for immediate sale and the 
same is highly probable of being completed within one year 
from the date of classification as held for sale.

(xxi) Discontinued operations 

A discontinued operation is a component of the Company’s 
business that represents a separate line of business that 
has been disposed off or is held for sale, or is a subsidiary 
acquired exclusively with a view to resale. Classification 
as  a  discontinued  operation  occurs  upon  the  earlier  of 
disposal or when the operation meets the criteria to be 
classified as held for sale. 

(xxii) Disposal of assets

The gain or loss arising on disposal or retirementof assets 
are recognized in the consolidated statement of income.

New Accounting standards adopted by the Company: 

IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers

On April 1, 2018, the Company adopted IFRS 15, “Revenue 
from  Contracts  with  Customers”  using  the  cumulative 
catch-up transition method applied to contracts that were 
not completed as at April 1, 2018. In accordance with the 
cumulative catch-up transition method, the comparatives 
have not been retrospectively adjusted. 

The  adoption  of  the  new  standard  has  resulted  in  a 
reduction of ` 2,279 in opening retained earnings, primarily 
relating  to  certain  contract  costs  because  these  do 
not  meet  the  criteria  for  recognition  as  costs  to  fulfil  a 
contract.

On  account  of  adoption  of  IFRS  15,  unbilled  revenues 
pertaining  to  fixed  price  development  contracts  of  
`  15,038 as at March 31, 2019, has been considered as 
non-financial  Contract  assets,  which  are  billable  on 
completion of milestones specified in the contracts.

Unbilled  revenues  `  22,880  which  are  billable  based 
on  passage  of  time  has  been  classified  as  unbilled 
receivables.

The adoption of IFRS 15, did not have any material impact 
on the consolidated statement of income and earnings per 
share for year ended March 31, 2019.

A.  Contract Asset and Liabilities

The  Company  classifies  its  right  to  consideration  in 
exchange  for  deliverables  as  either  a  receivable  or  a 
contract asset. 

A receivable is a right to consideration that is unconditional. 
A right to consideration is unconditional if only the passage 
of time is required before payment of that consideration 
is due. For example, the company recognizes a receivable 
for revenues related to time and materials contracts or 
volume-based  contracts.  The  Company  present  such 
receivables  as  part  of  unbilled  receivables  at  their  net 
estimated realizable value. 

Contract liabilities: During the year ended March 31, 2019, 
the Company recognized revenue of ` 14,570 arising from 
opening unearned revenue as at April 1, 2018.

Contract assets:During the year ended March 31, 2019, 
`  13,558  of  unbilled  revenue  pertaining  to  fixed-price 
development  contracts  (balance  as  at  April  1,  2018:  
` 17,469), has been reclassified to trade receivables on 
completion of milestones.

Contract  assets  and  liabilities  are  reported  in  a  net 
position on a contract by contract basis at the end of each 
reporting period.

B.  Remaining Performance Obligations

Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations 
represents  contracted  revenue  that  has  not  yet  been 
recognized  which  includes  unearned  revenue  and 
amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue 
in  future  periods.  Applying  the  practical  expedient,  the 
Company has not disclosed its right to consideration from 
customer  in  an  amount  that  corresponds  directly  with 
the value to the customer of the Company’s performance 
completed to date which are, contracts invoiced on time 
and  material  basis  and  volume  based.  As  at  March  31, 
2019, the aggregate amount of transaction price allocated 
to remaining performance obligations, other than those 
meeting  the  exclusion  criteria  above,  was  `  373,879  of 
which approximately 59% is expected to be recognized as 
revenues within two years, and the remainder thereafter. 
This  includes  contracts  that  can  be  terminated  for 
convenience without a substantive penalty since, based 
on  current  assessment,  the  occurrence  of  the  same  is 
expected to be remote.

IFRIC  22-  Foreign  currency  transactions  and  Advance 
consideration 

The Company has applied IFRIC 22 prospectively effective 
April 1, 2018. The effect on adoption of IFRIC 22 on the 
consolidated financial statements is insignificant.

New accounting standards not yet adopted: 

Certain  new  standards,  amendments  to  standards  and 
interpretations  are  not  yet  effective  for  annual  periods 
beginning after April 1 2018, and have not been applied in 
preparing these consolidated financial statements. New 
standards, amendments to standards and interpretations 
that  could  have  potential  impact  on  the  consolidated 
financial statements of the Company are: 

IFRS 16 – Leases

On  January  13,  2016,  the  International  Accounting 
Standards  Board  issued  IFRS  16,  Leases.  IFRS  16  will 
replace  the  existing  leases  Standard,  IAS  17  Leases, 
and  related  interpretations. The  standard  sets  out  the 
principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation 
and  disclosure  of  leases.  IFRS  16  introduces  a  single 
lessee  accounting  model  and  requires  a  lessee  to 
recognize assets and liabilities for all leases with a term 
of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of 
low value. The Standard also contains enhanced disclosure 
requirements for lessees. 

The standard allows for two methods of transition: the full 
retrospective approach, requires entities to retrospectively 
apply  the  new  standard  to  each  prior  reporting  period 
presented and the entities need to adjust equity at the 
beginning of the earliest comparative period presented, or 
the modified retrospective approach, under which the date 
of initial application of the new leases standard, lessees 
recognize the cumulative effect of initial application as an 
adjustment to the opening balance of equity as at annual 
periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019. 

The  Company  will  adopt  this  standard  using  modified 
retrospective  method  effective  April  1,  2019,  and 
accordingly,  the  comparative  for  year  ended  March  31, 
2018  and  2019,  will  not  be  retrospectively  adjusted. 
The  Company  has  elected  certain  available  practical 
expedients on transition. 

Based  on  assessment,  the  effect  of  adoption  as  on 
transition  date  would  majorly  result  in  recognizing  a 
right-of-use  assets  and  corresponding  lease  liabilities 
approximately ` 13,266 and ` 15,867 respectively. There 
will be reclassification in the cash flow categories in the 
statement of cash flows.

IFRIC 23 – Uncertainty over Income Tax treatments

On June 7, 2017, the International Accounting Standards 
Board issued IFRIC 23 which clarifies the accounting for 
uncertainties in income taxes. The interpretation is to be 
applied to the determination of taxable profit (tax loss), tax 
bases, unused tax losses, unused tax credits and tax rates, 
when  there  is  uncertainty  over  income  tax  treatments 

under IAS 12. The entity has to consider the probability of 
the relevant taxation authority accepting the tax treatment 
and  the  determination  of  taxable  profit  (tax  loss),  tax 
bases, unused tax losses, unused tax credits and tax rates 
would depend upon the probability. The effective date for 
adoption of IFRIC 23 for annual periods beginning on or 
after January 1, 2019, though early adoption is permitted. 
The Company will apply IFRIC 23 prospectively from the 
effective date and the effect on adoption of IFRIC 23 on the 
consolidated financial statement is insignificant.

Amendment to IAS 12 – Income Taxes

In December 2017, the International Accounting Standard 
Board had issued amendments to IAS 12 – Income Taxes. 
The  amendments  clarify  that  an  entity  shall  recognize 
the  income  tax  consequences  of  dividends  on  financial 
instruments  classified  as  equity  according  to  where 
the entity originally recognized those past transactions 
or  events  that  generated  distributable  profits  were 
recognized. The  effective  date  of  these  amendments  is 
annual  periods  beginning  on  or  after  January  1,  2019, 
though earlier adoption is permitted. The Company does 
not plan to early adopt this amendment and is currently 
assessing the impact of this amendment on the Company’s 
consolidated financial statements.

Amendment  to  IAS  19  -  Plan  Amendment,  Curtailment 
or Settlement

On  7  February  2018,  the  International  Accounting 
Standard  Board  has  issued  amendments  to  IAS  19, 
‘Employee  Benefits’,  in  connection  with  accounting  for 
plan amendments, curtailments and settlements requiring 
an  entity  to  determine  the  current  service  costs  and 
the net interest for the period after the remeasurement 
using  the  assumptions  used  for  the  remeasurement; 
and determine the net interest for the remaining period 
based  on  the  remeasured  net  defined  benefit  liability 
or  asset.  These  amendments  are  effective  for  annual 
reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019, 
with early application permitted. The Company will apply 
the amendment to IAS 19 prospectively from the effective 
date and the effect on adoption of the amendment on the 
consolidated financial statement is insignificant.

Amendment to IFRS 3 - Business combination

On  October  22,  2018,  the  International  Accounting 
Standard  Board  has  issued  amendments  to  IFRS  3, 
‘Business Combinations’, in connection with clarification 
of business definition, which help in determining whether 
an acquisition made is of a business or a group of assets. 
The  amendment  added  a  test  that  makes  it  easier  to 
conclude that a company has acquired a group of assets, 
rather than a business, if the value of the assets acquired 
is substantially all concentrated in a single asset or group 
of  similar  assets. These  amendments  are  effective  for 
annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 
2020,  with  early  application  permitted. The  Company  is 
currently evaluating the impact of amendment to IFRS 3 
on the Company’s consolidated financial statement.

Consolidated Financial Statements Under IFRSAnnual Report 2018-195.  Goodwill and intangible assets

The movement in goodwill balance is given below:

Following table presents the allocation of goodwill to the 
CGUs for the year ended March 31, 2018:

CGUs
Banking Financial Services and 
Insurance (BFSI)
Healthcare and Life Sciences (HLS)

20,406
979
`      117,584

For  the  purpose  of  impairment  testing,  goodwill  is 
allocated  to a  CGU representing  the  lowest  level  within 
the  Group  at  which  goodwill  is  monitored  for  internal 
management  purposes,  and  which  is  not  higher  than 
the  Company’s  operating  segment.  Goodwill  is  tested 
for impairment at least annually in accordance with the 
Company’s  procedure  for  determining  the  recoverable 
value of each CGU.

The recoverable amount of the CGU is determined on the 
basis  of  Fair  Value  Less  Cost  of  Disposal  (FVLCD). The 
FVLCD  of  the  CGU  is  determined  based  on  the  market 
capitalization approach, using the turnover and earnings 
multiples derived from observable market data. The fair 
value measurement is categorized as a level 2 fair value 
based on the inputs in the valuation techniques used. 

Based on the above testing, no impairment was identified 
as at March 31, 2018 and 2019, as the recoverable value 
of  the  CGUs  exceeded  the  carrying  value.  Further,  none 
of the CGU’s tested for impairment as at March 31, 2018 
and 2019 were at risk of impairment. An analysis of the 
calculation’s sensitivity to a change in the key parameters 
(turnover  and  earnings  multiples),  did  not  identify  any 
probable scenarios where the CGU’s recoverable amount 
would fall below its carrying amount.

markets,  (b)  an  acquisition  of  a  design  and  business 
strategy consultancy firm based in United States, and (c)

For the financial assets and liabilities subject to offsetting

Company and the counterparty allows for net settlement 
of the relevant financial assets and liabilities when both 
elect to settle on a net basis. In the absence of such an 
election, financial assets and liabilities will be settled on 
a gross basis, and hence, are not offset.

and  eligible  current  and  non-current  assets,  long  and 
short-term loans and borrowings, finance lease payables, 
bank overdrafts, trade payables, eligible current liabilities 
and non-current liabilities.

The  fair  value  of  cash  and  cash  equivalents,  trade 
receivables,  unbilled  receivables,  borrowings,  trade 
payables,  other  current  financial  assets  and  liabilities 
approximate  their  carrying  amount  largely  due  to  the 
short-term nature of these instruments. The Company’s 
long-term  debt  has  been  contracted  at  market  rates  of 
interest.  Accordingly,  the  carrying  value  of  such  long-
term debt approximates fair value. Further, finance lease 
receivables  that  are  overdue  are  periodically  evaluated 
based on individual credit worthiness of customers. Based 
on  this  evaluation,  the  Company  records  allowance  for 
estimated  losses  on  these  receivables.  As  at  March  31, 
2019 and 2018, the carrying value of such receivables, net 
of allowances approximates the fair value.

Investments in liquid and short-term mutual funds, which 
are  classified  as  FVTPL,  are  measured  using  net  asset 
values  at  the  reporting  date  multiplied  by  the  quantity 
held.  Fair  value  of  investments  in  commercial  papers, 
certificate of deposits and bonds classified as FVTOCI is 
determined based on the indicative quotes of price and 
yields prevailing in the market at the reporting date. Fair 
value  of  investments  in  equity  instruments  classified 
as  FVTOCI  is  determined  using  market  and  income 
approaches.

The  fair  value  of  derivative  financial  instruments  is 
determined based on observable market inputs including 
currency  spot  and  forward  rates,  yield  curves,  currency 
volatility etc.

Fair value hierarchy

The table below analyses financial instruments carried at 
fair value, by valuation method. The different levels have 
been defined as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for 
identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within 
Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either 
directly  (i.e.  as  prices)  or  indirectly  (i.e.  derived  from 
prices).

Level 3 – Inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not 
based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

The  following  methods  and  assumptions  were  used  to  estimate  the  fair  value  of  the  level  2  financial  instruments 
included in the above table.

Derivative instruments (assets and liabilities): The Company enters into derivative financial instruments with various 
counter-parties, primarily banks with investment grade credit ratings. Derivatives valued using valuation techniques 
with market observable inputs are mainly interest rate swaps, foreign exchange forward contracts and foreign exchange 
option contracts. The most frequently applied valuation techniques include forward pricing, swap models and Black 
Scholes models (for option valuation), using present value calculations. The models incorporate various inputs including 
the credit quality of counterparties, foreign exchange spot and forward rates, interest rate curves and forward rate 
curves of the underlying. As at March 31, 2019, the changes in counterparty credit risk had no material effect on the 
hedge effectiveness assessment for derivatives designated in hedge relationships and other financial instruments 
recognized at fair value.
Investment in commercial papers, certificate of deposits and bonds: Fair value of these instruments is derived based 
on the indicative quotes of price and yields prevailing in the market as at reporting date.

From  time  to  time,  in  the  normal  course  of  business, 
the  Company  transfers  accounts  receivables,  unbilled 
receivables, net investment in finance lease receivables 
(financials  assets)  to  banks.  Under  the  terms  of  the 
arrangements,  the  Company  surrenders  control  over 
the  financial  assets  and  transfer  is  without  recourse. 
Accordingly,  such  transfers  are  recorded  as  sale  of 
financial  assets.  Gains  and  losses  on  sale  of  financial 
assets without recourse are recorded at the time of sale 
based on the carrying value of the financial assets and fair 
value of servicing liability. The incremental impact of such 
transactions on our cash flow and liquidity for the year 
ended March 31, 2018 and 2019 is not material.

In certain cases, transfer of financial assets may be with 
recourse. Under arrangements with recourse, the Company 
is  obligated  to  repurchase  the  uncollected  financial 
assets,  subject  to  limits  specified  in  the  agreement 
with the banks. These are reflected as part of loans and 
borrowings  in  the  consolidated  statement  of  financial 
position.

Financial risk management 

Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of loss of future earnings, to fair 
values  or  to  future  cash  flows  that  may  result  from  a 
change in the price of a financial instrument. The value of 
a financial instrument may change as a result of changes 
in the interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and 
other  market  changes  that  affect  market  risk  sensitive 
instruments. Market risk is attributable to all market risk 
sensitive  financial  instruments  including  investments, 
foreign  currency  receivables,  payables  and  loans  and 
borrowings. 

The  Company’s  exposure  to  market  risk  is  a  function 
of  investment  and  borrowing  activities  and  revenue 
generating activities in foreign currency. The objective of 
market risk management is to avoid excessive exposure 
of the Company’s earnings and equity to losses. 

Risk Management Procedures 

The Company manages market risk through a corporate 
treasury  department,  which  evaluates  and  exercises 
independent  control  over  the  entire  process  of  market 
risk  management.  The  corporate  treasury  department 
recommends  risk  management  objectives  and  policies, 
which  are  approved  by  senior  management  and  Audit 
Committee.  The  activities  of  this  department  include 
management  of  cash  resources,  implementing  hedging 
strategies  for  foreign  currency  exposures,  borrowing 
strategies,  and  ensuring  compliance  with  market  risk 
limits and policies. 

Foreign currency risk 

The  Company  operates  internationally,  and  a  major 
portion of its business is transacted in several currencies. 
Consequently, the Company is exposed to foreign exchange 
risk through receiving payment for sales and services in 

the United States and elsewhere and making purchases 
from overseas suppliers in various foreign currencies. The 
exchange rate risk primarily arises from foreign exchange 
revenue,  receivables,  cash  balances,  forecasted  cash 
flows, payables and foreign currency loans and borrowings. 
A significant portion of the Company’s revenue is in the 
U.S. Dollar, the United Kingdom Pound Sterling, the Euro, 
the Canadian Dollar and the Australian Dollar, while a large 
portion of costs are in Indian rupees. The exchange rate 
between the rupee and these currencies has fluctuated 
significantly in recent years and may continue to fluctuate 
in  the  future.  Appreciation  of  the  rupee  against  these 
currencies  can  adversely  affect  the  Company’s  results 
of operations.

The Company evaluates exchange rate exposure arising 
from these transactions and enters into foreign currency 
derivative  instruments  to  mitigate  such  exposure.  The 
Company follows established risk management policies, 
including  the  use  of  derivatives  like  foreign  exchange 
forward/option contracts to hedge forecasted cash flows 
denominated in foreign currency. 

The  Company  has  designated  certain  derivative 
instruments as cash flow hedges to mitigate the foreign 
exchange  exposure  of  forecasted  highly  probable  cash 
flows. The Company has also designated foreign currency 
borrowings as hedge against respective net investments 
in foreign operations. 

As at March 31, 2018, and 2019 respectively, a ` 1 increase/
decrease  in  the  spot  exchange  rate  of  the  Indian  rupee 
with the U.S. dollar would result in approximately ` 1,500 
(consolidated  statement  of  income  `  414  and  other 
comprehensive income ` 1,086) and ` 2,002 (consolidated 
statement  of  income  `  602  and  other  comprehensive 
income ` 1,400) respectively decrease/increase in the fair 
value of foreign currency dollar denominated derivative 
instruments.

# Other currencies reflect currencies such as Saudi Riyal, Singapore Dollars, Danish Krone, etc.

As  at  March  31,  2018  and  2019,  respectively,  every  1% 
increase/decrease  of  the  respective  foreign  currencies 
compared  to  functional  currency  of  the  Company 
would impact results by approximately ` 365 and ` 457, 
respectively.

Interest rate risk 

Interest  rate  risk  primarily  arises  from  floating  rate 
borrowing, including various revolving and other lines of 
credit. The Company’s investments are primarily in short-
term investments, which do not expose it to significant 
interest rate risk. The Company manages its net exposure 
to  interest  rate  risk  relating  to  borrowings  by  entering 
into  interest  rate  swap  agreements,  which  allows  it  to 
exchange periodic payments based on a notional amount 
and agreed upon fixed and floating interest rates. Certain 
borrowings are also transacted at fixed interest rates. If 
interest rates were to increase by 100 bps from March 31, 
2019, additional net annual interest expense on floating 
rate borrowing would amount to approximately ` 866.

Credit risk 

Credit  risk  arises  from  the  possibility  that  customers 
may  not  be  able  to  settle  their  obligations  as  agreed. 
To manage this, the Company periodically assesses the 
financial reliability of customers, taking into account the 
financial condition, current economic trends, analysis of 
historical bad debts and ageing of accounts receivable. 
Individual  risk  limits  are  set  accordingly.  No  single 
customer accounted for more than 10% of the accounts 
receivable as at March 31, 2018 and 2019, respectively, 
or revenues for the year ended March 31, 2017, 2018 and 

2019, respectively. There is no significant concentration 
of credit risk. 

Counterparty risk 

Counterparty risk encompasses issuer risk on marketable 
securities, settlement risk on derivative and money market 
contracts  and  credit  risk  on  cash  and  time  deposits. 
Issuer risk is minimized by only buying securities which 
are  at  least  AA  rated  in  India  based  on  Indian  rating 
agencies.  Settlement  and  credit  risk  is  reduced  by  the 
policy of entering into transactions with counterparties 
that  are  usually  banks  or  financial  institutions  with 
acceptable  credit  ratings.  Exposure  to  these  risks  are 
closely monitored and maintained within predetermined 
parameters. There  are  limits  on  credit  exposure  to  any 
financial institution. The limits are regularly assessed and 
determined based upon credit analysis including financial 
statements and capital adequacy ratio reviews. 

Liquidity risk 

Liquidity risk is defined as the risk that the Company will 
not be able to settle or meet its obligations on time or at 
a  reasonable  price.  The  Company’s  corporate  treasury 
department  is  responsible  for  liquidity  and  funding  as 
well as settlement management. In addition, processes 
and policies related to such risks are overseen by senior 
management. Management monitors the Company’s net

Deferred taxes on unrealized foreign exchange gain / loss 
relating  to  cash  flow  hedges,  fair  value  movements  in 
investments and actuarial gains/losses on defined benefit 
plans  are  recognized  in  other  comprehensive  income. 
Deferred  tax  liability  on  the  intangible  assets  identified 
and carry forward losses on acquisitions is recorded by 
an adjustment to goodwill. Other than these, the change 
in deferred tax assets and liabilities is primarily recorded 
in  the  consolidated  statement  of  income.  In  assessing 
the  realizability  of  deferred  tax  assets,  the  Company 
considers  the  extent  to  which  it  is  probable  that  the 
deferred tax asset will be realized. The ultimate realization 
of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation 
of future taxable profits during the periods in which those 
temporary differences and tax loss carry-forwards become 
deductible. The Company considers the expected reversal 
of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income 
and  tax  planning  strategies  in  making  this  assessment. 
Based on this, the Company believes that it is probable that 
the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible 
differences. The amount of deferred tax asset considered 
realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if 
the estimates of future taxable income during the carry-
forward period are reduced. 

Deferred  tax  asset  amounting  to  `  3,756  and  `  6,769 
as  at  March  31,  2018  and  2019,  respectively  in  respect 
of  unused  tax  losses  have  not  been  recognized  by  the 
Company.  The  tax  loss  carry-forwards  of  `  14,510  and  
` 24,355 as at March 31, 2018 and 2019, respectively, relates 
to certain subsidiaries on which deferred tax asset has not 
been recognized by the Company, because there is a lack of 
reasonable certainty that these subsidiaries may generate 
future taxable profits. Approximately, ` 6,223 and ` 8,191 as 

at March 31, 2018 and 2019, respectively, of these tax loss 
carry-forwards is not currently subject to expiration dates. 
The  remaining  tax  loss  carry-forwards  of  approximately 
`  8,287  and  `  16,164  as  at  March  31,  2018  and  2019, 
respectively, expire in various years through fiscal 2038.

The  Company  has  recognized  deferred  tax  assets  of  
` 5,694 and  ` 3,149 primarily in respect of carry forward 
losses of its various subsidiaries as at March 31, 2018 and 
2019,  respectively.  Management’s  projections  of  future 
taxable  income  and  tax  planning  strategies  support  the 
assumption  that  it  is  probable  that  sufficient  taxable 
income will be available to utilize these deferred tax assets.

The  Company  has  calculated  its  tax  liability  for  current 
domestic  taxes  after  considering  MAT.  The  excess  tax 
paid  under  MAT  provisions  over  and  above  normal  tax 
liability can be carried forward and set-off against future 
tax  liabilities  computed  under  normal  tax  provisions. 
The Company was required to pay MAT and accordingly, 
a deferred tax asset of ` 74 and Nil has been recognized 
in the statement of consolidated financial position as at 
March 31, 2018 and 2019, respectively.

A substantial portion of the profits of the Company’s India 
operations  are  exempt  from  Indian  income  taxes  being 
profits attributable to export operations and profits from 
units established under the Special Economic Zone Act, 
2005 scheme. Units designated in special economic zones 
providing service on or after April 1, 2005 will be eligible 
for a deduction of 100 percent of profits or gains derived 
from  the  export  of  services  for  the  first  five  years  from 
commencement of provision of services and 50 percent of 
such profits and gains for a further five years. Certain tax 
benefits are also available for a further five years subject 

329

Consolidated Financial Statements Under IFRSAnnual Report 2018-19to the unit meeting defined conditions. Profits from certain 
other  undertakings  are  also  eligible  for  preferential  tax 
treatment. The tax holiday period being currently available 
to  the  Company  expires  in  various  years  through  fiscal 
2032-33.  The  expiration  period  of  tax  holiday  for  each 
unit within a SEZ is determined based on the number of 
years that have lapsed following year of commencement 
of production by that unit. The impact of tax holidays has 
resulted in a decrease of current tax expense of ` 11,958, 
` 11,635 and ` 15,390 for the years ended March 31, 2017, 
2018 and 2019, respectively, compared to the effective tax 
amounts that we estimate the Company would have been 
required to pay if these incentives had not been available. 
The per share effect of these tax incentives for the years 
ended March 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019 was ` 1.85, ` 1.84 
and ` 2.56, respectively.

Deferred  income  tax  liabilities  are  recognized  for  all 
taxable temporary differences except in respect of taxable 
temporary  differences  associated  with  investments 
in  subsidiaries  where  the  timing  of  the  reversal  of 
the  temporary  difference  can  be  controlled  and  it  is 
probable  that  the  temporary  difference  will  not  reverse 
in  the  foreseeable  future.  Accordingly,  deferred  income 
tax  liabilities  on  cumulative  earnings  of  subsidiaries 
amounting to ` 51,432 and ` 52,488 as at March 31, 2018 
and 2019, respectively and branch profit tax @ 15% of the 
US branch profit have not been recognized. Further, it is not 
practicable to estimate the amount of the unrecognized 
deferred tax liabilities for these undistributed earnings.

18.   Dividends, Bonus and Buyback of equity shares

The Company declares and pays dividends in Indian rupees. 
According to the Companies Act, 2013 any dividend should 
be  declared  out  of  accumulated  distributable  profits.  A 
Company  may,  before  the  declaration  of  any  dividend, 
transfer a percentage of its profits for that financial year 
as it may consider appropriate to the reserves.

The  cash  dividends  paid  per  equity  share  were  `  3,  `  1 
and ` 1, during the years ended March 31, 2017, 2018 and 
2019,  respectively,  including  an  interim  dividend  of  `  2,  
` 1 and ` 1 for the years ended March 31, 2017, 2018 and 
2019, respectively.

During  the  year  ended  March  31,  2018,  the  bonus  issue 
in  the  proportion  of  1:1  i.e.1  (One)  bonus  equity  share 
of  `  2  each  for  every  1  (one)  fully  paid-up  equity  share 
held  (including  ADS  holders)  had  been  approved  by  the 
shareholders of the Company on June 03, 2017 through 
Postal Ballot /e-voting. For this purpose, June 14, 2017, 
was fixed as the record date. Consequently, on June 15, 
2017,  the  Company  allotted  2,433,074,327  shares  and  
` 4,866 (representing par value of ` 2 per share) has been 
transferred from retained earnings to share capital.

During the year ended March 31, 2019, the bonus issue in 
the proportion of 1:3 i.e.1 (One) bonus equity share of ` 2 
each for every 3 (three) fully paid-up equity shares held 
(including ADS holders) was approved by the shareholders 
of the Company on February 22, 2019, through Postal Ballot 

330

/e-voting. Subsequently, on March 8, 2019, the Company 
allotted  1,508,469,180  equity  shares  to  shareholders 
who  held  equity  shares  as  on  the  record  date  of  March 
7,  2019  and  `  3,016  (representing  par  value  of  `  2  per 
share) was transferred from capital redemption reserves, 
securities premium reserve and retained earnings to the 
share capital.

During the year ended March 31, 2018, the Company has 
concluded  the  buyback  of  343,750,000  equity  shares 
as approved by the Board of Directors on July 20, 2017. 
This has resulted in a total cash outflow of ` 110,000. In 
line with the requirement of the Companies Act 2013, an 
amount of ` 1,656 and ` 108,344 has been utilized from 
the  securities  premium  reserve  and  retained  earnings 
respectively.  Further,  capital  redemption  reserves 
(included  in  other  reserves)  of  `  687  (representing  the 
nominal value of the shares bought back) has been created 
as an apportionment from retained earnings. Consequent 
to such buyback, share capital has reduced by ` 687.

19.   Additional capital disclosures

The key objective of the Company’s capital management is 
to ensure that it maintains a stable capital structure with 
the focus on total equity to uphold investor, creditor and 
customer confidence and to ensure future development of 
its business. The Company focused on keeping strong total 
equity base to ensure independence, security as well as a 
high financial flexibility for potential future borrowings, if 
required without impacting the risk profile of the Company.

The  Company’s  goal  is  to  continue  to  be  able  to  return 
excess liquidity to shareholders by continuing to distribute 
annual dividends in future periods.

The amount of future dividends/ buyback of equity shares 
will be balanced with efforts to continue to maintain an 
adequate liquidity status.

The capital structure as at March 31, 2018 and 2019 was 
as follows:

Equity attributable to 
the equity shareholders 
of the Company
 As percentage of total 
capital 
 Current loans, 
borrowings and bank 
overdrafts 
 Long-term loans and 
borrowings 
 Total loans, borrowings 
and bank overdrafts

capital

25.  Earnings per equity share

A reconciliation of profit for the year and equity shares used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per 
equity share is set out below:

Basic: Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity shareholders of the Company 
by the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the year, excluding equity shares purchased by 
the Company and held as treasury shares.

Basic earnings per share 

` 13.11

` 12.64

` 14.99

Diluted: Diluted earnings per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding 
during the year for assumed conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares. Employee share options are dilutive 
potential equity shares for the Company. 

The calculation is performed in respect of share options to determine the number of shares that could have been 
acquired at fair value (determined as the average market price of the Company’s shares during the year). The number 
of shares calculated as above is  compared  with  the  number  of  shares that  would  have been issued  assuming the 
exercise of the share options.

The expected return on plan assets is based on expectation 
of  the  average  long-term  rate  of  return  expected  on 
investments of the fund during the estimated term of the 
obligations.

The  discount  rate  is  primarily  based  on  the  prevailing 
market yields of government securities for the estimated 
term  of  the  obligations. The  estimates  of  future  salary 
increase  considered  takes  into  account  the  inflation, 
seniority, promotion and other relevant factors. Attrition 
rate considered is the management’s estimate, based on 
previous years’ employee turnover of the Company.

The expected future contribution and estimated future 
benefit payments from the fund are as follows:  

Expected contribution to the fund during the 
year ending March 31, 2020
Estimated  benefit  payments  from  the  fund 
for the year ending March 31:

The expected benefits are based on the same assumptions 

used to measure the Company’s benefit obligations as at 
March 31, 2019.

Sensitivity  for  significant  actuarial  assumptions  is 
computed  to  show  the  movement  in  defined  benefit 
obligation by 0.5 percentage.

As at March 31, 2019, every 0.5 percentage point increase/
(decrease)  in  discount  rate  will  result  in  (decrease)/
increase of  defined benefit obligation  by  approximately  
` (405) and ` 435 respectively (March 31, 2018: ` (320) and 
` 341 respectively).

As at March 31, 2019, every 0.5 percentage point increase/
(decrease) in expected rate of salary will result in increase/
(decrease) of defined benefit obligation by approximately 
` 245 and ` (229) respectively (March 31, 2018: ` 184 and 
` (173) respectively).

29.  Commitments and contingencies

Operating leases: The Company has taken office, vehicles 
and IT equipment under cancellable and non-cancellable 
operating  lease  agreements  that  are  renewable  on  a 
periodic  basis  at  the  option  of  both  the  lessor  and  the 
lessee. The  operating  lease  agreements  extend  up  to  a 
maximum of fifteen years from their respective dates of 
inception and some of these lease agreements have price 
escalation  clause.  Rental  payments  under  such  leases 
were ` 5,953, ` 6,236 and ` 6,490 for the years ended March  
31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively:

Not later than one year

Capital commitments: As at March 31, 2018 and 2019, the 
Company had committed to spend approximately ` 13,091 
and ` 12,443 respectively, under agreements to purchase/ 
construct property and equipment. These amounts are net 
of capital advances paid in respect of these purchases.

Guarantees: As at March 31, 2018 and 2019, performance 
and financial guarantees provided by banks on behalf of 
the Company to the Indian Government, customers and 
certain other agencies amount to approximately ` 21,546 
and ` 18,456 respectively, as part of the bank line of credit.

Contingencies and lawsuits: The Company is subject to 
legal proceedings and claims (including tax assessment 
orders/ penalty notices) which have arisen in the ordinary 
course of its business. Some of the claims involve complex 
issues and it is not possible to make a reasonable estimate 
of the expected financial effect, if any, that will result from 
ultimate  resolution  of  such  proceedings.  However,  the 
resolution of these legal proceedings is not likely to have 
a material and adverse effect on the results of operations 
or the financial position of the Company. The significant 
of such matters are discussed below.

In March 2004, the Company received a tax demand for 
year ended March 31, 2001 arising primarily on account of 
denial of deduction under section 10A of the Income Tax 
Act, 1961 (Act) in respect of profit earned by the Company’s 
undertaking in Software Technology Park at Bengaluru. The 
same issue was repeated in the successive assessments 
for the years ended March 31, 2002 to March 31, 2011 and 
the aggregate demand is ` 47,583 (including interest of  
`  13,832).  The  appeals  filed  against  the  said  demand 
before the Appellate authorities have been allowed in favor 
of the Company by the second appellate authority for the 
years up to March 31, 2008. Further appeals have been 
filed by the Income tax authorities before the Hon’ble High 
Court. The Hon’ble High Court has heard and disposed-off 
majority of the issues in favor of the Company up to years 
ended  March  31,  2004.  Department  has  filed  a  Special 
Leave Petition (SLP) before the Supreme Court of India for 
the year ended March 31, 2001 to March 31, 2004.

On  similar  issues  for  years  up  to  March  31,  2000,  the 

341

Consolidated Financial Statements Under IFRSAnnual Report 2018-19 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Hon’ble  High  Court  of  Karnataka  has  upheld  the  claim 
of  the  Company  under  section  10A  of  the  Act.  For  the 
year  ended  March  31,  2009,  the  appeals  are  pending 
before  Income  Tax  Appellate  Tribunal  (ITAT).  For  years 
ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2011, the Dispute 
Resolution Panel (DRP) allowed the claim of the Company 
under section 10A of the Act. The Income tax authorities 
have filed an appeal before the ITAT. 

For  year  ended  March  31,  2013,  the  Company  received 
the  final  assessment  order  in  November  2017  with  a 
demand of ` 3,286 (including interest of ` 1,166), arising 
primarily on account of section 10AA issues with respect 
to  exclusion  from  Export  Turnover.  The  Company  has 
filed an appeal before Hon’ble ITAT, Bengaluru within the 
prescribed timelines.

For  year  ended  March  31,  2014,  the  Company  received 
the  final  assessment  order  in  September  2018  with  a 
demand of ` 1,030 (including Nil interest), arising primarily 
on account of transfer pricing issues. The Company has 
filed an appeal before the Hon’ble ITAT, Bengaluru within 
the prescribed timelines. 

For year ended March 31, 2015, the Company received the 
Draft assessment order in December 2018 with a demand 
of ` 6,467 (including interest of ` 2,007), arising primarily 
on account of Capitalization of wages. The Company has 
filed  objections  before  the  Dispute  Resolution  Panel 
(Bengaluru) within the prescribed timelines.

Income  tax  demands  against  the  Company  amounting 
to ` 101,440 and ` 66,441 are not acknowledged as debt 
as  at  March  31,  2018  and  March  31,  2019,  respectively. 
The contingent liability has been reworked on the basis 
of  recent  judicial  pronouncements  and  updates. These 
matters are pending before various Appellate Authorities 
and  the  management  expects  its  position  will  likely  be 
upheld on ultimate resolution and will not have a material 
adverse  effect  on  the  Company’s  financial  position  and 
results of operations.

The contingent liability in respect of disputed demands 
for excise duty, custom duty, sales tax and other matters 
amounts to ` 7,745 and ` 8,477 as at March 31, 2018 and 
2019. However, the resolution of these legal proceedings 
is  not  likely  to  have  a  material  and  adverse  effect  on 
the results of operations or the financial position of the 
Company.

30.  Segment information

During the year ended March 31, 2019, the Company has 
organized India State Run Enterprise segment (ISRE) as 
a separate segment, which was earlier part of IT Services 
segment.

Comparative information has been restated to give effect 
to the above changes.

IT Services: The IT Services segment primarily consists of 
IT  Service  offerings  to  customers  organized  by  industry 
verticals.  Effective  April  1,  2018,  consequent  to  change 
in  organization  structure,  the  Company  reorganized 
its  industry  verticals.  The  Manufacturing  (MFG)  and 
Technology Business unit (TECH) are split from the former 
Manufacturing & Technology (MNT) business unit.

The  revised  industry  verticals  are  as  follows:  Banking, 
Financial Services and Insurance (BFSI), Health Business 
unit  (Health  BU)  previously  known  as  Health  Care  and 
Life  Sciences  Business  unit  (HLS),  Consumer  Business 
unit  (CBU),  Energy,  Natural  Resources  &  Utilities 
(ENU),  Manufacturing  (MFG),  Technology  (TECH)  and 
Communications  (COMM).  Key  service  offerings  to 
customers  includes  software  application  development 
and  maintenance,  research  and  development  services 
for hardware and software design, business application 
services, analytics, consulting, infrastructure outsourcing 
services and business process services.

Comparative information has been restated to give effect 
to the above changes.

IT  Products:  The  Company  is  a  value  added  reseller 
of  desktops,  servers,  notebooks,  storage  products, 
networking solutions and packaged software for leading 
international brands. In certain total outsourcing contracts 
of the IT Services segment, the Company delivers hardware, 
software products and other related deliverables. Revenue 
relating to the above items is reported as revenue from the 
sale of IT Products.

India State Run Enterprise segment (ISRE): This segment 
consists of IT Services offerings to entities/ departments 
owned or controlled by Government of India and/ or any 
State Governments.

The Chairman and Managing Director of the Company has 
been  identified  as  the  Chief  Operating  Decision  Maker 
(CODM) as defined by IFRS 8, “Operating Segments.” The 
Chairman of the Company evaluates the segments based 
on their revenue growth and operating income. 

Assets  and  liabilities  used  in  the  Company’s  business 
are  not  identified  to  any  of  the  operating  segments,  as 
these  are  used  interchangeably  between  segments. 
Management believes that it is currently not practicable 
to provide segment disclosures relating to total assets and 
liabilities since a meaningful segregation of the available 
data is onerous.

The Company is now organized by the following operating 
segments:  IT  Services,  IT  Products  and  India  State  Run 
Enterprise segment (ISRE).

Independent Assurance 
Statement

Scope and Approach

DNV  GL  Business  Assurance  India  Private  Limited  has 
been commissioned by the management of Wipro Limited 
(‘Wipro’  or ‘the  Company’,  Corporate  Identity  Number 
L32102KA1945PLC020800) to carry out an independent 
assurance engagement on the non-financial - qualitative 
and quantitative information (sustainability performance) 
in  its  Annual  Report  2018-19  (‘the  Report’)  in  printed 
format and references to the Company’s website, for the 
financial year ending 31st March 2019. 

The  sustainability  performance  is  presented  based  on 
the  materiality  determination  exercise  carried  out  by 
the  Company  covering  Wipro’s  Information  Technology 
business operations in India and other geolocations, and 
considering the key requirements of:

- 

- 

- 

The  International  Integrated  Reporting  Council’s 
(IIRC’s)  Framework;

The  Global  Reporting  Initiative  (GRI)  Sustainability 
Reporting Standards 2016 (‘GRI Standards’)

the principles of the National Voluntary Guidelines 
(NVG) and Securities and Exchange Board of India’s 
(SEBI’s)  requirements  with  respect  to  Business 
Responsibility Reporting (BRR) vide circular No. CIR/
CFD/DIL/8/2012 dated August 13, 2012.

We performed a limited level of assurance based on our 
assurance methodology VeriSustainTM1, which is based on 
our professional experience, international assurance best 
practices including International Standard on Assurance 
Engagements  3000  (ISAE  3000)  Revised*  and  the  GRI 
Principles  for  Defining  Report  Content  and  Quality.  Our 
assurance  engagement  was  planned  and  carried  out 
during April 2019 – June 2019. 

Responsibilities of the Management of Wipro and of the 
Assurance Provider

The  Management  of  Wipro  has  the  sole  responsibility 
for  the  preparation  of  the  Report  and  are  responsible 

for all information disclosed in the Report as well as the 
processes  for  collecting,  analysing  and  reporting  the 
information presented in both the printed and web-based 
versions of the Report. Wipro is also responsible for the 
maintenance and integrity of its website. In performing this 
assurance work, our responsibility is to the Management; 
however,  this  statement  represents  our  independent 
opinion  and  is  intended  to  inform  the  outcome  of  the 
assurance to the stakeholders of the Company.

We  provide  a  range  of  other  services  to  Wipro,  none  of 
which in our opinion, constitute a conflict of interest with 
this  assurance  work.  Our  assurance  engagements  are 
based on the assumption that the data and information 
provided  by  the  client  to  us  as  part  of  our  review  have 
been provided in good faith. We were not involved in the 
preparation  of  any  statements  or  data  included  in  the 
Report except for this Assurance Statement. We expressly 
disclaim any liability or co-responsibility for any decision 
a person or an entity may make based on this Assurance 
Statement.

Basis of our Opinion

We  planned  and  performed  our  work  to  obtain  the 
evidence  considered  necessary  to  provide  a  basis  for 
our  assurance  opinion,  and  as  part  of  the  assurance,a 
multi-disciplinary team of sustainability and assurance 
specialists  performed  work  at  Wipro’s  Corporate  Office 
and sample operations and supply chain partners in India.

We undertook the following activities:

• 

• 

Review of Wipro’s approach to identification of key 
capitals, the processes of stakeholder engagement 
and  materiality  determination,  and  its  outcome  as 
brought out in this Report. We did not have any direct 
engagement with external stakeholders;

Interviews with selected senior managers responsible 
for management of sustainability issues and review 
of  selected  evidence  to  support  issues  disclosed 
in the Report. We were free to choose interviewees 
and interviewed those with overall responsibility to 
deliver the Company’s sustainability objectives;

statements issued by the Company’s statutory auditors.

Opinion

On the basis of the verification undertaken, nothing has 
come  to  our  attention  to  suggest  that  the  Report  does 
not bring out the sustainability performance disclosures 
for the identified material topics and related capitals i.e. 
Financial,  Intellectual,  Human,  Social  and  Relationship, 
and  Natural  (hereafter  referred  to  as  ‘Capitals’)  and 
disclosure requirements as set out by SEBI for Business 
Responsibility  Reporting  through  the  following  GRI

Observations

Without  affecting  our  assurance  opinion,  we  provide 
the  following  observations  against  the  principles  of 
Verisustain: 

Materiality

The process of determining the issues that is most relevant 
to an organization and its stakeholders.

The  Report  brings  out  identified  material  topics  on  the 
basis of an internal materiality determination exercise, as 
well as through benchmarking with peers, sustainability 
rating  agencies  and  applicable  sustainability  reporting 
frameworks and key concerns of identified stakeholders.
On the basis of review of the non-financial disclosures in 
this Report, nothing has come to our attention to suggest 
that the Report does not meet the requirements related 
to the Principle of Materiality.

Stakeholder Inclusiveness

The  participation  of  stakeholders  in  developing  and 
achieving  an  accountable  and  strategic  response  to 
Sustainability. 

Wipro  has  formal  and  informal  processes  in  place 
for  stakeholder  identification  and  engagement,  and 

354

Wipro Limitedresponses to key concerns are brought out in the Report 
out  through  descriptions  of  appropriate  strategies, 
policies and management approach. On the basis of review 
of  the  non-financial  disclosures  in  this  Report,  nothing 
has  come  to  our  attention  to  suggest  that  the  Report 
does not meet the requirements related to the Principle 
of Stakeholder Inclusiveness.

Responsiveness

The extent to which an organization responds to stakeholder 
issues. 

The Report brings out Wipro’s responses on key concerns, 
expectations and issues raised by its key stakeholders, 
identified as material topics for value creation,through its 
policies, strategies, management systems and governance 
mechanisms, further, the Report also brings out Wipro’s 
approach towards value creation across identified Capitals 
in a coherent manner. On the basis of review of the non-
financial disclosures in this Report, nothing has come to 
our  attention  to  suggest  that  the  responses  related  to 
identified material topics are not adequately represented 
in the Report.

have been corrected. On the basis of review of the non-
financial  disclosures  in  this  Report,  nothing  has  come 
to  our  attention  to  suggest  that  the  existing  process  of 
sustainability disclosure does not meet the requirements 
related to the Principle of Reliability.

Completeness

How much of all the information that has been identified 
as  material  to  the  organisation  and  its  stakeholders  is 
reported? 

The  reporting  scope  covers  disclosures  related  to 
chosen guidelines for sustainability reporting i.e. Wipro’s 
Economic, Environmental and Social performance through 
topics it has identified as material, based on appropriate 
GRI Standards and requirements of the  framework 
and National Voluntary Guidelines, within the identified 
reporting  boundary.  On  the  basis  of  review  of  the  non-
financial disclosures in this Report, nothing has come to 
our attention to suggest that the Report does not meet 
the  Principle  of  Completeness  with  respect  to  scope, 
boundary and time.

Reliability

Neutrality

The accuracy and comparability of information presented 
in  the  report,  as  well  as  the  quality  of  underlying  data 
management systems.

The majority of data and information verified at Corporate 
Office  and  at  sample  locations  visited  by  us  were 
found  to  be  fairly  accurate  and  reliable.  Some  of  the 
data  inaccuracies  identified  during  the  verification 
process  were  found  to  be  attributable  to  transcription, 
interpretation  and  aggregation  errors  and  the  errors 

The extent to which a report provides a balanced account of 
an organization’s performance, delivered in a neutral tone. 

The disclosures related to sustainability performance and 
issues are presented in a neutral tone, in terms of content 
and presentation, along with key concerns and challenges 
faced  during  the  period.  On  the  basis  of  review  of  the  
non-financial disclosures in this Report,nothing has come 
to our attention to suggest that the Report does not meet 
the Principle of Neutrality.
