Wipro Limited (“Wipro” or the “Parent Company”), together with its subsidiaries and controlled trusts (collectively, “we”, “us”, “our”, “the
Company” or the “Group”) is a global information technology (“IT”), consulting and business process services (“BPS”) company.
Wipro is a public limited company incorporated and domiciled in India. The address of its registered office is Wipro Limited, Doddakannelli,
Sarjapur Road, Bengaluru – 560 035, Karnataka, India. The Company has its primary listing with Bombay Stock Exchange Ltd. and National
Stock Exchange of India Ltd. The Company’s American Depository Shares (“ADS”) representing equity shares are also listed on the New York
Stock Exchange.
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Company’s Board of Directors on January 13, 2021.
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in compliance with IAS 34, “Interim Financial Reporting”, as
issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that
are significant to understand the changes in financial position and performance of the Company since the last annual consolidated financial
statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2020. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the
information required for full annual financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and its
interpretations (“IFRS”).
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements correspond to the classification provisions contained in IAS 1 (revised), “Presentation
of Financial Statements”. For clarity, various items are aggregated in the statements of income and statements of financial position. These items
are disaggregated separately in the notes to the financial statement, where applicable. The accounting policies have been consistently applied to
all periods presented in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements except for the adoption of new accounting standards,
amendments and interpretations effective from April 1, 2020.
All amounts included in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements are reported in millions of Indian rupees (₹ in millions) except
share and per share data, unless otherwise stated. Due to rounding off, the numbers presented throughout the document may not add up precisely
to the totals and percentages may not precisely reflect the absolute figures.
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost convention and on an accrual basis, except for
the following material items which have been measured at fair value as required by relevant IFRS:
a. Derivative financial instruments;
b. Financial instruments classified as fair value through other comprehensive income or fair value through profit or loss;
c. The defined benefit liability/(asset) recognized as the present value of defined benefit obligation less fair value of plan assets; and
d. Contingent consideration.
The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared and reported in Indian rupees, the functional currency
of the Parent Company. Solely for the convenience of the readers, the interim condensed consolidated financial statements as at and for the three
and nine months ended December 31, 2020, have been translated into United States dollars at the certified foreign exchange rate of US$1 = ₹
73.01 as published by Federal Reserve Board of Governors on December 31, 2020. No representation is made that the Indian rupee amounts have
been, could have been or could be converted into United States dollars at such a rate or any other rate. Due to rounding off, the translated numbers
presented throughout the document may not add up precisely to the totals.
The preparation of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the management to make judgments,
estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses.
Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revision to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which
the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected. In particular, information about significant areas of estimation, uncertainty and critical
judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the interim condensed consolidated
financial statements are included in the following notes:
a) Revenue recognition: The Company applies judgement to determine whether each product or service promised to a customer is
capable of being distinct, and is distinct in the context of the contract, if not, the promised product or service is combined and
accounted as a single performance obligation. The Company allocates the arrangement consideration to separately identifiable
performance obligation deliverables based on their relative stand-alone selling price. In cases where the Company is unable to
7
b) Impairment testing: Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful life recognized on business combination are tested for
impairment at least annually and when events occur or changes in circumstances indicate that the recoverable amount of an asset or
a cash generating unit to which an asset pertain is less than the carrying value. The Company assesses acquired intangible assets with
finite useful life for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be
recoverable. The recoverable amount of an asset or a cash generating unit is higher of value-in-use and fair value less cost of disposal.
The calculation of value in use of an asset or a cash generating unit involves use of significant estimates and assumptions which
include turnover, growth rates and net margins used to calculate projected future cash flows, risk-adjusted discount rate, future
economic and market conditions.
c) Income taxes: The major tax jurisdictions for the Company are India and the United States of America. Significant judgments are
involved in determining the provision for income taxes including judgment on whether tax positions are probable of being sustained
in tax assessments. A tax assessment can involve complex issues, which can only be resolved over extended time periods.
d) Deferred taxes: Deferred tax is recorded on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying
amounts, at the rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. The ultimate realization of deferred tax
assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable profits during the periods in which those temporary differences and tax loss
carry-forwards become deductible. The Company considers expected reversal of deferred tax liabilities and projected future taxable
income in making this assessment. The amount of deferred tax assets considered realizable, however, could reduce in the near term
if estimates of future taxable income during the carry-forward period are reduced.
e) Business combination: In accounting for business combinations, judgment is required in identifying whether an identifiable
intangible asset is to be recorded separately from goodwill. Additionally, estimating the acquisition date fair value of the identifiable
assets acquired (including useful life estimates), liabilities assumed, and contingent consideration assumed involves management
judgment. These measurements are based on information available at the acquisition date and are based on expectations and
assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by management. Changes in these judgments, estimates, and assumptions can
materially affect the results of operations.
f) Defined benefit plans and compensated absences: The cost of the defined benefit plans, compensated absences and the present
value of the defined benefit obligations are based on actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method. An actuarial valuation
involves making various assumptions that may differ from actual developments in the future. These include the determination of the
discount rate, future salary increases and mortality rates. Due to the complexities involved in the valuation and its long-term nature,
a defined benefit obligation is highly sensitive to changes in these assumptions. All assumptions are reviewed at each reporting date.
g) Expected credit losses on financial assets: The impairment provisions of financial assets are based on assumptions about risk of
default and expected timing of collection. The Company uses judgment in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to
expected credit loss calculation based on the Company’s history of collections, customer’s creditworthiness, existing market
conditions as well as forward looking estimates at the end of each reporting period.
h) Measurement of fair value of non-marketable equity investments: These instruments are initially recorded at cost and
subsequently measured at fair value. Fair value of investments is determined using the market and income approaches. The market
approach includes the use of financial metrics and ratios of comparable companies, such as revenue, earnings, comparable
performance multiples, recent financial rounds and the level of marketability of the investments. The selection of comparable
companies requires management judgment and is based on a number of factors, including comparable company sizes, growth rates,
and development stages. The income approach includes the use of discounted cash flow model, which requires significant estimates
regarding the investees’ revenue, costs, and discount rates based on the risk profile of comparable companies. Estimates of revenue
and costs are developed using available historical and forecast data.
i) Useful lives of property, plant and equipment: The Company depreciates property, plant and equipment on a straight-line basis
over estimated useful lives of the assets. The charge in respect of periodic depreciation is derived based on an estimate of an asset’s
expected useful life and the expected residual value at the end of its life. The lives are based on historical experience with similar
assets as well as anticipation of future events, which may impact their life, such as changes in technology. The estimated useful life
is reviewed at least annually.
j) Useful lives of intangible assets: The Company amortizes intangible assets on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of the
assets. The useful life is estimated based on a number of factors including the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition and other
economic factors such as the stability of the industry and known technological advances and the level of maintenance expenditures
required to obtain the expected future cash flows from the assets. The estimated useful life is reviewed at least annually.
l) Other estimates: The share-based compensation expense is determined based on the Company’s estimate of equity instruments that
will eventually vest. Fair valuation of derivative hedging instruments designated as cash flow hedges involves significant estimates
relating to the occurrence of forecasted transaction.
m) Uncertainty relating to the global health pandemic on COVID-19: In assessing the recoverability of receivables including
unbilled receivables, contract assets and contract costs, goodwill, intangible assets, and certain investments, the Company has
considered internal and external information up to the date of approval of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements
including credit reports and economic forecasts. The Company has performed sensitivity analysis on the assumptions used herein.
Based on the current indicators of future economic conditions, the Company expects to recover the carrying amount of these assets.
The Company basis its assessment believes that the probability of the occurrence of forecasted transactions is not impacted by
COVID-19. The Company has also considered the effect of changes, if any, in both counterparty credit risk and own credit risk while
assessing hedge effectiveness and measuring hedge ineffectiveness and continues to believe that there is no impact on effectiveness
of its hedges.
The impact of COVID-19 remains uncertain and may be different from what we have estimated as of the date of approval of these
interim condensed consolidated financial statements and the Company will continue to closely monitor any material changes to future
economic conditions.
Please refer to the Company’s Annual report for the year ended March 31, 2020, for a discussion of the Company’s other critical accounting
policies except for the adoption of new accounting standards, amendments and interpretations effective on or after April 1, 2020.
New Accounting standards, amendments and interpretations adopted by the Company effective from April 1, 2020:
The International Accounting Standard Board has issued amendments to IFRS 3, ‘Business Combinations’, in connection with clarification of
business definition, which help in determining whether an acquisition made is of a business or a group of assets. The amendment added a test that
makes it easier to conclude that a Company has acquired a group of assets, rather than a business, if the value of the assets acquired is substantially
all concentrated in a single asset or group of similar assets. The adoption of amendment to IFRS 3 is applicable to new acquisition on a prospective
basis and did not have any impact on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company.
The IASB amended some of its requirements for hedge accounting. The amendments provide relief from potential effects of the uncertainty caused
by the IBOR reform. In addition, the amendments require companies to provide additional information to investors about their hedging
relationships that are directly affected by these uncertainties. The adoption of amendment to IFRS 9, IAS 39 and IFRS 7 did not have any significant
material impact on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company.
The IASB issued Amendment to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements and IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates
and Errors to update a new definition of material in IAS 1. The amendments clarify the definition of “material” and how it should be applied by
including in the definition guidance that until now has featured elsewhere in IFRS Standards. The new definition clarifies that, information is
considered material if omitting, misstating, or obscuring such information, could reasonably be expected to influence the decisions that the primary
users of general-purpose financial statements make on the basis of those financial statements. The definition of material in IAS 8 has been replaced
by a reference to the definition of material in IAS 1. In addition, the IASB amended other Standards and the Conceptual Framework that contain
a definition of material or refer to the term ‘material’ to ensure consistency. The adoption of the amendment to IAS 1 and IAS 8 did not have any
material impact on its evaluation of materiality in relation to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
The IASB issued amendments to IFRS 16, “Leases”, provide lessees with an exemption from assessing whether a COVID-19-related rent
concession is a lease modification. The amendments allowed the expedient to be applied to COVID-19-related rent concessions to payments
originally due on or before June 30, 2021 and also require disclosure of the amount recognized in profit or loss to reflect changes in lease payments
that arise from COVID-19-related rent concessions. The reporting period in which a lessee first applies the amendment, it is not required to disclose
certain quantitative information required under IAS 8. Accordingly, the Company recognized ₹ 6 and ₹ 34 as reversal of lease liability in the
interim condensed consolidated statement of income for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020 respectively.
Certain new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations are not yet effective for annual periods beginning after April 1, 2020 and have
not been applied in preparing these interim condensed consolidated financial statements. New standards, amendments to standards and
interpretations that could have potential impact on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are:
On January 23, 2020, the IASB has issued “Classification of liabilities as Current or Non-Current (Amendments to IAS 1)” providing a more
general approach to the classification of liabilities under IAS 1 based on the contractual arrangement in place at the reporting date. The amendments
aim to promote consistency in applying the requirements by helping companies to determine whether, in the statement of financial position, debt
and other liabilities with an uncertain settlement date should be classified as current (due or potentially due to be settled within one year) or non-
current. The amendments also clarified the classification requirements for debt a company might settle by converting it into equity. These
amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023 and are to be applied retrospectively, with earlier
application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of amendment to IAS 1 on the consolidated financial statements.
On May 14, 2020, the IASB issued “Onerous Contracts — Cost of Fulfilling a Contract (Amendments to IAS 37)”, amending the standard regarding
costs a company should include as the cost of fulfilling a contract when assessing whether a contract is onerous. The amendment specifies that the
“cost of fulfilling” a contract comprises the “costs that relate directly to the contract”. Costs that relate directly to a contract can either be
incremental costs of fulfilling that contract or an allocation of other costs that relate directly to fulfilling contracts. These amendments are effective
for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022, with earlier application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the
impact of amendment to IAS 37 on the consolidated financial statements.
Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16 – Interest Rate Benchmark Reform (Phase 2)
In August 2020, the IASB issued Interest Rate Benchmark Reform (Phase 2), which amends other IFRS standards. The amendments complement
those issued in 2019 and focus on the effects on financial statements when a company replaces the old interest rate benchmark with an alternative
benchmark rate as a result of the reform. The amendments in this final phase relate to practical expedient for particular changes in contractual cash
flows, relief from specific hedge accounting requirements and certain disclosure requirement. These amendments are effective for annual reporting
periods beginning on or after January 1, 2021, with earlier application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the amendment
on the consolidated financial statements.
On May 14, 2020, IASB amended IFRS 9 as part of its Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2018-2020. The amendment clarifies which fees
an entity includes when it applies the ‘10 percent’ test of IFRS 9 in assessing whether to derecognize a financial liability. This amendment is
effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022, with earlier application permitted. The Company is currently
evaluating the impact of amendment to IFRS 9 on the consolidated financial statements.

* During the period ended December 31, 2020, change in business strategy of a customer has led to a significant decline in the revenue and earnings
estimates, resulting in revision of recoverable value of customer-relationship intangible assets recognized on business combination. Further, the
Company integrated certain brands acquired as part of a business combination, resulting in discontinuance of the acquired brands. Consequently,
the Company has recognized impairment charge of ₹ 1,628 and ₹ 1,890 for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020 respectively, as
part of amortization and impairment.
7. Business combination:
During the nine months ended December 31, 2020, the Company has completed three business combinations (which individually are not material)
for a total consideration of ₹ 7,853. These include (a) acquisition of IVIA Serviços de Informática Ltda. (“IVIA”), a specialized IT services
provider to financial services, retail and manufacturing sectors in Brazil (b) acquisition of 4C NV and its subsidiaries (“4C”), a Salesforce multi-
cloud partner in Europe, U.K. and the Middle East, and (c) acquisition of Encore Theme Technologies Private Limited (“ETT’), a Finastra trade
finance solutions partner across the Middle East, Africa, India and Asia Pacific. The following table presents the provisional purchase price
allocation:
13
The total consideration for IVIA includes a deferred earn-out component of ₹ 497, which is linked to achievement of revenues and earnings over
a period of 3 years ending September 30, 2023. The fair value of the earn-out liability was estimated by applying the discounted cash-flow approach
considering discount rate of 5.7% and probability adjusted revenue and earnings estimates. This earn-out liability was fair valued at ₹ 460 and
recorded as part of provisional purchase price allocation.
The total consideration for ETT includes a deferred earn-out component of ₹ 305, which is linked to achievement of revenues and earnings over a
period of 1.5 years ending March 31, 2022. The fair value of the earn-out liability was estimated by applying the discounted cash-flow approach
considering discount rate of 7.4% and probability adjusted revenue and earnings estimates. This earn-out liability was fair valued at ₹ 196 and
recorded as part of provisional purchase price allocation.
Net assets acquired include ₹ 887 of cash and cash equivalents.
The goodwill of ₹ 6,232 comprises value of acquired workforce and expected synergies arising from the business combinations. Goodwill is
allocated to IT Services segment and is not deductible for income tax purposes.
The pro-forma effects of these business combinations on the Company’s results were not material.

Balance as at the beginning of the period ₹ 3,019 ₹ (2,876)
As at December 31, 2019 and 2020, there were no significant gains or losses on derivative transactions or portions thereof that have become
ineffective as hedges or associated with an underlying exposure that did not occur.
Fair value:
Financial assets and liabilities include cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, unbilled receivables, finance lease receivables, employee and
other advances, eligible current and non-current assets, loans, borrowings and bank overdrafts, trade payables and accrued expenses, and eligible
current liabilities and non-current liabilities.
The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, unbilled receivables, loans, borrowings and bank overdrafts, trade payables and
accrued expenses, other current financial assets and liabilities approximate their carrying amount largely due to the short-term nature of these
instruments. The Company’s long-term debt has been contracted at market rates of interest. Accordingly, the carrying value of such long-term
debt approximates fair value. Further, finance lease receivables are periodically evaluated based on individual credit worthiness of customers.
17
Investments in liquid and short-term mutual funds, which are classified as FVTPL are measured using net asset values at the reporting date
multiplied by the quantity held. Fair value of investments in commercial papers, certificate of deposits and bonds classified as FVTOCI is
determined based on the indicative quotes of price and yields prevailing in the market at the reporting date. Fair value of investments in equity
instruments classified as FVTOCI is determined using market and income approaches.
The fair value of derivative financial instruments is determined based on observable market inputs including currency spot and forward rates, yield
curves, currency volatility etc.
The table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value, by valuation method. The different levels have been defined as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or
indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
Level 3 – Inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of the level 2 financial instruments included in the above table.
Derivative instruments (assets and liabilities): The Company enters into derivative financial instruments with various counterparties, primarily
banks with investment grade credit ratings. Derivatives valued using valuation techniques with market observable inputs are mainly interest rate
swaps, foreign exchange forward contracts and foreign exchange option contracts. The most frequently applied valuation techniques include
forward pricing, swap models and Black Scholes models (for option valuation), using present value calculations. The models incorporate various
inputs including the credit quality of counterparties, foreign exchange spot and forward rates, interest rate curves and forward rate curves of the
underlying. As at December 31, 2020, the changes in counterparty credit risk had no material effect on the hedge effectiveness assessment for
derivatives designated in hedge relationships and other financial instruments recognized at fair value.
Investment in commercial papers, certificate of deposits and bonds: Fair value of these instruments is derived based on the indicative quotes
of price and yields prevailing in the market as at reporting date.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of the level 3 financial instruments included in the above table.

A reconciliation of profit for the period and equity shares used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per equity share is set out below:
Basic: Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity shareholders of the Company by the weighted average
number of equity shares outstanding during the period, excluding equity shares purchased by the Company and held as treasury shares.
Three months ended December 31, Nine months ended December 31,
2019 2020 2019 2020

Weighted average number of equity shares outstanding 5,692,132,118 5,696,798,493 5,879,588,157 5,694,731,405
Basic earnings per share ₹ 4.31 ₹ 5.21 ₹ 12.58 ₹ 13.74
Diluted: Diluted earnings per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of equity shares outstanding during the period for
assumed conversion of all dilutive potential equity shares and buyback of equity shares. Employee share options are dilutive potential equity shares
for the Company.
The calculation is performed in respect of share options to determine the number of shares that could have been acquired at fair value (determined
as the average market price of the Company’s shares during the period). The number of shares calculated as above is compared with the number
of shares that would have been issued assuming the exercise of the share options.

In March 2004, the Company received a tax demand for year ended March 31, 2001 arising primarily on account of denial of deduction under
section 10A of the Income Tax Act, 1961 in respect of profit earned by the Company’s undertaking in Software Technology Park at Bengaluru.
The same issue was repeated in the successive assessments for the years ended March 31, 2002 to March 31, 2011 and the aggregate demand is ₹
47,583 (including interest of ₹ 13,832). The appeals filed against the said demand before the Appellate authorities have been allowed in favor of
the Company by the second appellate authority for the years up to March 31, 2011. Further appeals have been filed by the Income tax authorities
before the Hon’ble High Court. The Hon’ble High Court has heard and disposed-off majority of the issues in favor of the Company up to years
ended March 31, 2008. Department has filed a Special Leave Petition before the Supreme Court of India for the year ended March 31, 2001 to
March 31, 2004. Further, for the financial years ending March 31, 2009 to March 31, 2014, the Hon’ble Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (“ITAT”)
has heard and disposed-off majority of the issues in favor of the Company. Out of six financial years, aggregate demand for year ending March
31, 2009 to March 31, 2011 of ₹ 8,226 (including interest of ₹ 1,798) is included above. Remaining three years ending from March 31, 2012 to
March 31, 2014 has aggregate demand of ₹ 4,316 (including interest of ₹ 1,165).
For the year ended March 31, 2015, the Company received the final assessment order in October 2019 with an estimated demand of ₹ 1,347
(including nil interest), arising primarily on account of capitalization of wages. The Company has filed an appeal before the Hon’ble ITAT,
Bengaluru within the prescribed timelines.
For the year ended March 31, 2016, the Company received the draft assessment order in December 2019 with an estimated demand of ₹ 704
(including nil interest), arising primarily on account of capitalization of wages. The Company has filed the objections before the Dispute Resolution
Panel (Bengaluru) within the prescribed timelines.
For the year ended March 31, 2007 to year ended March 31, 2012, the company has received tax demand of ₹ 227 (including interest of ₹ 102) for
non-deduction of tax at source on some payments. The Company has already deposited the demand under protest. The Company received order
issued by ITAT, Bengaluru rejecting Company's appeal. The Company has received a favorable order on this issue from the Hon’ble High Court
of Karnataka for the earlier years and has filed appeal with Hon’ble High Court of Karnataka challenging order from ITAT. Hon’ble High Court
of Karnataka has admitted the appeal and has granted stay for penalty proceeding initiated by the department.
Income tax demands against the Company amounting to ₹ 77,873 and ₹ 84,797 are not acknowledged as debt as at March 31, 2020 and December
31, 2020, respectively. These matters are pending before various Appellate Authorities and the management expects its position will likely be
upheld on ultimate resolution and will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.
The contingent liability in respect of disputed demands for excise duty, custom duty, sales tax and other matters amounting to ₹ 8,033 and ₹ 10,298
as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2020, respectively. However, the resolution of these disputed demands is not likely to have a material and
adverse effect on the results of operations or the financial position of the Company.
The Hon’ble Supreme Court of India, through a ruling in February 2019, provided interpretation on the components of Salary on which the
Company and its employees are to contribute towards Provident Fund under the Employee’s Provident Fund Act. Based on the current evaluation,
the Company believes it is not probable that certain components of Salary paid by the Company will be subject to contribution towards Provident
Fund due to the Supreme Court order. The Company will continue to monitor and evaluate its position based on future events and developments.
The Company is organized into the following operating segments: IT Services, IT Products and India State Run Enterprise segment (“ISRE”).
IT Services: The IT Services segment primarily consists of IT Service offerings to customers organized by industry verticals. The industry verticals
are as follows: Banking, Financial Services and Insurance (“BFSI”), Health Business unit (“Health BU”), Consumer Business unit (“CBU”),
Energy, Natural Resources & Utilities (“ENU”), Manufacturing (“MFG”), Technology (“TECH”) and Communications (“COMM”). Key
service offerings to customers includes software application development and maintenance, research and development services for hardware and
software design, business application services, analytics, consulting, infrastructure outsourcing services and business process services.
As announced on November 12, 2020, in order to broad base our growth, effective January 1, 2021, we re-organized our IT Services segment from
seven industry verticals to four Strategic Market Units (“SMUs”) as follows - Americas 1, Americas 2, Europe and Asia Pacific Middle East
Africa (“APMEA”). We will report our IT Services segment information organized by SMUs from quarter ending March 31, 2021.

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 the above items is reported as revenue from the sale of IT Products.

The Chairman of the Company has been identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) as defined by IFRS 8, “Operating
Segments.” The Chairman of the Company evaluates the segments based on their revenue growth and operating income.
Assets and liabilities used in the Company’s business are not identified to any of the operating segments, as these are used interchangeably between
segments. Management believes that it is currently not practicable to provide segment disclosures relating to total assets and liabilities since a
meaningful segregation of the available data is onerous.
