Morgan Stanley Lowers Wipro Limited (WIT) Target, Cites Sluggish Exit Rate

Wipro Limited (NYSE:WIT) is among the overlooked penny stocks to invest in. On January 19, Morgan Stanley downgraded Wipro Limited (NYSE:WIT) to Underweight from Equalweight, and trimmed the price target from INR270 to INR242. The firm attributes this pessimism to the company’s growth trajectory, saying that fourth-quarter guidance reflects a flattish exit rate in organic terms. Thus, the company will need a significant improvement in consecutive quarterly growth rates to meaningfully enhance its performance.

Keeping this in mind, Morgan Stanley lowered its organic revenue growth estimates for Wipro Limited by 2.4%, from 4.2% YoY to 1.8% YoY in constant currency terms for FY27. This is based on a gradual ramp-up of contracts over the coming two quarters.
