Wipro Consumer Care & Lighting (WCCL) has announced a 3.5% increase in revenue, reaching Rs 10,600 crore in the fiscal year 2024-25. The growth comes amidst challenges such as inflation and subdued consumer sentiment impacting demand. CEO Vineet Agrawal noted a slowdown in China, with India also showing muted growth due to factors like the demand environment and delayed government orders post-election. Despite this, the company's volume growth stood at 7.8% last year, the highest in the industry, with all quarters showing growth above 7%. Premium and economy products performed well in the market.
