08/06/26, Technical Fall in Wipro


Wipro shares declined more than 11 percent over the last two trading sessions, with the stock coming under pressure after the record date for the company's Rs 15,000-crore share buyback programme.

The stock had fixed June 5 as the record date for the buyback. Wipro shares closed 2.91 percent lower on Friday and extended losses on Monday, ending 8.45 percent down at Rs 181.60 per share on the NSE.
According to market analysts, the sharp fall reflects a price adjustment following the buyback record date rather than any deterioration in the company's underlying business fundamentals.

Nishchal Jain, Quant Researcher at Share.Market by PhonePe, said the decline was largely driven by short-term investors exiting their positions after becoming eligible for the company's Rs 250 per share buyback offer.

"The recent 11 percent decline in Wipro over two consecutive trading sessions represents a structural price adjustment rather than a core fundamental breakdown. The stock shed its corporate action premium after the June 5 record date and moved from around Rs 204 to the Rs 183-184 zone," he said.

Jain said the stock has now entered an important support area between Rs 180 and Rs 184, which has historically attracted institutional buying interest. He added that any recovery could face resistance around Rs 195 initially, followed by a stronger hurdle in the Rs 200-205 range.

He further said broader factors such as movements in global bond yields and profit-booking across the Nifty IT index may have contributed to recent volatility. However, he noted that developments such as Wipro's expanded enterprise AI partnership with ServiceNow and its acquisition of an 80 per cent stake in Aggne Global support the company's longer-term growth outlook.

For investors, Jain said the recent correction has reduced risk levels for long-term positions, provided the stock sustains above the Rs 180 mark on a weekly closing basis.

Virat Jagad, Senior Technical Research Analyst at Bonanza, said Wipro  is currently trading near a key long-term support zone of Rs 176-180, which has historically acted as a strong demand area.

"The stock remains below its 20- and 50-month exponential moving averages, indicating a weak medium-term trend, while RSI is hovering near the lower range, reflecting subdued momentum," he said.

Jagad cautioned that a decisive break below Rs 176 could trigger fresh selling pressure and drag the stock towards Rs 160 and Rs 145 levels. On the upside, he said any rebound may face resistance in the Rs 205-210 range, followed by Rs 230.
He advised traders to closely track the Rs 176 support level, adding that a breach could lead to further downside pressure in the months ahead.

Overall, analysts said the stock is approaching a critical support zone, with its ability to hold above key levels likely to determine the near-term trend.
