Notes:

2006-06 Quarter 1

Expenditure Includes Cost of Sales / Services - Consumption of Raw Materials* Rs 3510.00 million - Other expenditure Rs 15710.00 million Selling & Marketing Expenses Rs 1957.00 million General & Administrative expenses Rs 1359.00 million Details of Expenditure Items exceeding 10% of total expenditure Staff Cost Rs 12769.00 million * Includes Increase/(Decrease) in finished and processed stocks Rs (126.00) million EPS is Basic Status of Investor Complaints for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 Complaints Pending at the beginning of the quarter Nil Complaints Received during the quarter 133 Complaints disposed off during the quarter 133 Complaints unresolved at the end of the quarter Nil 1. The above audited financial results were approved by the Board of Directors of the Company at its meeting held on July 19, 2006. 2. Effective April 01, 2006, the Company through its subsidiaries acquired 100% equity of cMango Inc and subsidiaries (cMango). cMango is a provider of Business Service Management (BSM) solutions. The consideration includes cash payment of Rs 884 Million and an earn-out of USD 12 Million to be determined and paid in the future based on specific financial metrics being achieved over a two year period. 3. Effective June 01, 2006, the Company through its subsidiaries acquired 100% equity of RetailBox BV and subsidiaries (Enabler). Enabler is in the business of providing comprehensive IT solutions and services. The consideration includes cash payment of Rs 2,425 Million and an earn-out of Euro 11 Million to be determined and paid in the future based on specific financial metrics being achieved over a two year period. 4. On June 29, 2006, the Company through its subsidiaries acquired 100% equity of Saraware Oy (Saraware) for an aggregate consideration of Rs 975 Million. Saraware provides design and engineering services to telecom companies. In addition, the Company would pay an earn-out of Euro 7 Million to be determined based on financial targets being achieved over a period of 18 months. 5. The Company has been granting restricted stock units (RSUs) since October 2004. The RSUs generally vest equally at annual intervals over a five year period. The stock compensation cost is computed under the intrinsic value method and amortized on a straight line basis over the total vesting period of five years. As permitted by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (US GAAP), the Company applies a similar straight line amortization method for financial reporting under US GAAP. The Company has been advised by external counsel that the straight line amortization complies with SEBI guidelines. However, an alternative interpretation could result in amortization of the cost on an accelerated basis. Under this approach, the amortization in the initial years would be higher with a lower charge in subsequent periods (though the overall charge over the full vesting period will remain the same). If the Company were to amortize the cost on an accelerated basis, profit before tax and profit after tax for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 would have been lower by Rs 28 Million & Rs 24 Million respectively. Similarly, the profits before tax and profit after tax for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 and year ended March 31, 2006 would have been lower by Rs 213 Million & Rs 197 Million and Rs 490 Million & Rs 449 Million respectively. This would effectively increase the profit before and after tax in later years by similar amounts.

2006-09 Quarter 2

Profit before tax and profit after tax for the year ended March 31, 2006 would have been lower by Rs 490 million and Rs 449 million respectively. This would effectively increase the profit before and after tax in later years by similar amounts. In July 2005, the Company established Wipro Restricted Stock Unit Plan (WRSUP 2005). The Company is authorized to issue up to 12,000,000 Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) under the plan to eligible employees.

Wipro appoints P R Chandrasekhar as Chief Executive – Americas & Europe

Bangalore, July 24, 2005

Wipro Limited (NYSE: WIT) today announced the appointment of P R “Sekar” Chandrasekhar as the Chief Executive of Americas and Europe. Sekar has been leading the European Operations for Wipro.

In his earlier roles in Wipro, Sekar has been responsible for Global M&A, Channel Development and the Global .Net Business. He led Wipro’s initiatives in M&A which have bolstered Wipro’s position as a leading Global IT services and BPO provider. He has also had a successful stint in Wipro GE Medical Systems in Sales. Prior to joining Wipro, Sekar was responsible for M&A for GE India.

Rich Garnick, Head of Wipro’s America Sales has resigned after four years at Wipro. Rich has contributed to institutionalizing the sales processes in North America, and in making Wipro a market leader across services lines.

Commenting on this change, Mr. Azim Premji, Chairman, Wipro Limited said, “Sekar brings in a wealth of experience, having worked in multiple strategic and sales roles. His ability to create a win-win with customers is further enhanced by his deep prior experience in the Americas and Europe. Increasingly, they find that their clients work with them across multiple geographies and having a common head for Europe and the Americas will align them better with this trend.” He added, “Rich has contributed to building their sales engine in North America. They wish him success in his future endeavors.”

Reflecting on his tenure at Wipro, Rich Garnick said, “Wipro has grown tremendously in its ability to engage and add value to customers, and it has been exciting to have been part of this transformation. Given this phenomenal growth and the associated travel, I have not been able to spend enough time with my family and there comes a time when you need to focus on the family and that is the key driver of my decision to leave Wipro. I am sure that the sales organization they have built will continue to make significant progress, under the leadership of Sekar.”

Commenting on his new role, P R Chandrasekar said, “North America is their largest market and I am very excited by the opportunity to grow their business there.
