Focus on Differentiated Value to Clients with Seamless, Predictable Execution

Bangalore, India - December 6, 2011:

Wipro Technologies, the Global Information Technology, Consulting and Outsourcing business of Wipro Limited (NYSE: WIT) announced its plans to create a focused global unit called the "Business Operations Unit", which will enable Wipro to deliver differentiated value for clients with seamless, predictable execution. The company will consolidate its Business Application Services, Global Delivery, Quality and IS teams under the newly formed Business Operations Unit.

Bhanumurthy BM who is currently the Senior Vice President and Head of Wipro Technologies' Retail, Consumer Goods, Transportation & Government (RCTG) Strategic Business Unit will take over as the Chief Business Operations Officer. In close to twenty years at Wipro, he has worked across business, service line, delivery and operations. A strategic thinker and leader, he is well positioned to lead the next wave of operational excellence and seamless delivery across Wipro's global operations.

Srini Pallia will take over as the Strategic Business Unit head for Wipro Technologies’ Retail, Consumer Goods, Transportation & Government (RCTG) business unit. Srini currently leads the Business Application Services (BAS) Service line. With his expertise in leading Sales, Business and Technology practices, Srini will be able to help drive differentiated services for our clients. He has been closely associated with some of our largest clients in RCTG, many of whom he helped partner, during his decade long stint in the US.

Sambuddha Deb, Global Chief Delivery Officer, Wipro Limited will retire from the company by March 2012. Having worked for close to thirty years at Wipro, Deb has had a stellar performance record across the multiple roles that he managed. He has been instrumental in creating a best in class delivery organization and for bringing in Lean and Six Sigma methodology to our operations. Deb will continue his association with Wipro in an advisory capacity.

Bhanumurthy and Srini will continue to report to T. K. Kurien, CEO, IT Business & Executive Director, Wipro Limited. The above changes will be effective in the New Year from January 01, 2012.

T. K. Kurien, CEO, IT Business & Executive Director, Wipro Limited commenting on the strategy behind the consolidation said, “The technology business in which we play is at the leading edge of change. Our strategy of driving a significantly higher degree of customer engagement and hyper growth has started paying dividends. As part of the strategy we have committed to better aligning our internal organization to our clients’ needs and to make investments in driving predictability and automation in our delivery.”

He added, "We would like to congratulate Bhanu and Srini, and wish them the very best in their new roles. We also extend our thanks to Sambuddha Deb for his substantial contributions to Wipro, which include setting up the Global Delivery Function, launching Lean in Software, building a world recognized Knowledge Management System and cultivating a whole generation of leaders."
