Wipro stock fell 4.1 percent to Rs 195.9 in morning trade.

Shares of Wipro Ltd. declined more than 4 percent on Friday, emerging as the top loser on the Nifty 50 index, after the IT services company's Rs 15,000 crore share buyback entered its record date. Wipro stock fell 4.1 percent to Rs 195.9 in morning trade. The decline came after investors who purchased shares to qualify for the buyback became eligible for the corporate action, reducing the incentive for fresh buying linked to the offer. June 5 was the record date for Wipro's buyback programme. Investors seeking to participate in the buyback were required to purchase shares by June 4 to ensure the stock was credited to their demat accounts in time under the T+1 settlement cycle. The company announced the buyback proposal in April. It plans to repurchase shares at Rs 250 apiece through the tender offer route. The buyback price represents a premium of about 22.5 percent to Thursday's closing price of Rs 204.
