Wipro likely to skip pay hikes for top performers in key business line

Wipro, India's fourth-largest IT services provider, is considering skipping salary hikes for "top performers with higher compensation" in its largest business line. The decision is part of the company's efforts to address pay disparities and prioritize employees with lower compensation. The move comes as Wipro faces various challenges, including weak client spending and stiff competition from larger rivals. The decision could impact employee morale and lead to increased attrition, as salary bills are a significant portion of IT companies' expenses. Wipro had already delayed its salary hike cycle, and peers like Infosys and HCL have also taken measures to control payroll costs.
