* Guidance is based on the following exchange rates: GBP/USD at 1.64, Euro/USD at 1.46, AUD/USD at 1.07, USD/INR at 44.29.

IT Services (76% of Total Revenue and 93% of Operating Income for the year ended March 31, 2011)

IT Services segment had 122,385 employees as of March 31, 2011, an increase of 2,894 people this quarter and 14,314 people in the year. We added 68 new customers for the quarter and 155 new customers during the year.

As a testament to our focus on high growth verticals, we signed an agreement to acquire the Global Oil and Gas Information Technology practice of the Commercial Business Services business unit of Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC), for an all-cash consideration of approximately US$150 million, subject to adjustments. This acquisition will further strengthen Wipro’s leadership position in the Energy, Natural Resources and Utilities Strategic Business Unit (SBU).

This quarter also saw Wipro signing a strategic agreement with Temenos, the world’s leading supplier of packaged banking software, to deliver core banking on an Application Service Provider (ASP) model to European banks. Wipro will provide banks with a solution based on Temenos’ best-selling TEMENOS T24 (T24) core banking solution and charge clients based on a per use or monthly fee. This offering will address the significant and growing demand for an ASP offering, from small and medium sized banks, to bundle the license, maintenance, services and infrastructure costs of a banking application into a predictable monthly fee and achieve a much faster time to market than if installed on premise.

Wipro has been chosen as the Strategic Partner for Infrastructure Services sustenance and transformation for a leading European Banking Conglomerate’s Investment Banking division, over a 5 year program.

Continuing the trend in the BFSI sector, a significant player in Lloyds of London market has engaged Wipro to deliver a Regulatory Compliance Data Warehousing Solution to meet the upcoming Lloyds 10 day reporting and Solvency II regulations. The scope of the engagement is an end-to-end solution including process analysis and definition. Wipro will be the sole vendor to deliver this capability. This engagement provides Wipro with a framework and reference architecture to offer compliance solutions, which has been an area of focus for Wipro.

Wipro and a leading Pharmacy retailer in USA have entered into a multi-year engagement to provide application management and testing services.

About Non-GAAP financial measures

This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G and Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K. Such non-GAAP financial measures are measures of our historical or future performance, financial position or cash flows that are adjusted to exclude or include amounts that are excluded or included, as the case may be, from the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS.

Page 3

The table on page 7 provides Adjusted Net Income for the period, which is a non-GAAP measure that excludes the impact of accelerated amortization in respect of stock options that vest in a graded manner, and IT Services Revenue on a constant currency basis, which is a non-GAAP measure that is calculated by translating IT Services Revenue from the current reporting period into U.S. dollars based on the currency conversion rate in effect for the prior reporting period. We consider a stock option award with a graded vesting schedule to be in substance a single award not multiple stock option awards and accordingly believe the straight line amortization reflects the economic substance of the award. We refer to growth rates in constant currency so that business results may be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons of our business performance. We believe that the presentation of this Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income, when shown in conjunction with the corresponding IFRS measure, provides useful information to investors and management regarding financial and business trends relating to its Net Income for the period

These Non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with IFRS, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition to these non-GAAP measures, the financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable IFRS financial measure should be carefully evaluated.

For internal budgeting process, our management also uses financial statements that exclude the impact of accelerated amortization relating to stock options that vest in a graded manner. Management of the Company also uses Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income, in addition to the corresponding IFRS measure, in reviewing our financial results.

Results for the year ended March 31, 2011, computed under IFRS, along with individual business segment reports, are available in the Investors section of our website at www.wipro.com.
