Wipro has once again chosen to bet on an insider who has grown through the ranks to lead the company. Srini Pallia has spent over three-decades at Wipro and it's the only company he has ever worked with. Till now, Pallia was heading the Americas-1 unit.
Abid Ali Neemuchwala, its vice-president and global head of BPO Services, said these deals, along with its end-to-end BPO services offering, will help it attain a compounded annual growth rate of 45-50 per cent, to touch its target of $3 billion in the next five years. The BPO unit had a revenue of $415 million (around Rs 2,033 crore) last year.
