No client individually accounted for more than 10% of the revenues during the three months and nine months ended December 31, 2009 and 2010.
Notes:

a) |  | The company has the following reportable segments:

| i) |  | IT Services: The IT Services segment provides IT and IT enabled services to customers. Key service offering includes software application development, application maintenance, research and development services for hardware and software design, data center outsourcing services and business process outsourcing services.
| ii) |  | IT Products: The IT Products segment sells a range of Wipro personal desktop computers, Wipro servers and Wipro notebooks. The Company is also 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 these items is reported as revenue from the sale of IT Products.
| iii) |  | Consumer Care and Lighting: The Consumer Care and Lighting segment manufactures, distributes and sells personal care products, baby care products, lighting products and hydrogenated cooking oils in the Indian and Asian markets.
| iv) |  | The Others’ segment consists of business segments that do not meet the requirements individually for a reportable segment as defined in IFRS 8.
| v) |  | Corporate activities such as treasury, legal and accounting, which do not qualify as operating segments under IFRS 8, and elimination of inter-segment transactions have been considered as ‘reconciling items’.

b) |  | Revenues include excise duty of .220 and .264 for the three months ended December 31, 2009 and 2010, respectively and .604 and .747 for the nine months ended December 31, 2009 and 2010, respectively. For the purpose of segment reporting, the segment revenues are net of excise duty. Excise duty is reported in reconciling items.
c) |  | For evaluating performance of the individual business segments, stock compensation expense is allocated on the basis of straight line amortization. The incremental impact of accelerated amortization of stock compensation expense over stock compensation expense allocated to the individual business segments is reported in reconciling items.
d) |  | For evaluating the performance of the individual business segments, amortization of intangibles acquired through business combinations are reported in reconciling items. Accordingly, comparative period information has been reclassified.
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. Corporate treasury provides internal financing to the business units offering multi-year payments terms. Accordingly, such receivables are reflected in capital employed in reconciling items. As of December 31, 2009 and 2010, capital employed in reconciling items includes .7,249 and .11,597 respectively, of such receivables on extended collection terms.
f) |  | Operating income of segments is after recognition of stock compensation expense arising from the grant of options:

|  | Three months ended |  |  | Nine months ended |
|  | December 31, |  |  | December 31, |
Segments |  | 2009 |  |  | 2010 |  |  | 2009 |  |  | 2010 |
IT Services |  | . | 250 |  |  | . | 339 |  |  | . | 902 |  |  | . | 878 |
IT Products |  |  | 20 |  |  |  | 24 |  |  |  | 73 |  |  |  | 67 |
Consumer Care and Lighting |  |  | 19 |  |  |  | 29 |  |  |  | 51 |  |  |  | 85 |
Others |  |  | 4 |  |  |  | 10 |  |  |  | 14 |  |  |  | 23 |
Reconciling items |  |  | 32 |  |  |  | (90 | ) |  |  | (79 | ) |  |  | (293 | )
Total |  | . | 325 |  |  | . | 312 |  |  | . | 961 |  |  | . | 760 |

|  | 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.
10. |  | The Company has granted Nil options under RSU Options Plan during the three months ended December 31, 2009 and 2010, respectively and 5,000 and 6,661,180 options under RSU Options Plan during the nine months ended December 31, 2009 and 2010, respectively.
11. |  | Dividend
