Four days after Pallia was named chief executive, Malay Joshi took over as CEO of Americas 1, Wipro's largest market unit that Pallia used to head earlier. In May, less than a month since Joshi's promotion, Hari Shetty, another company veteran, was named Wipro's chief strategist and sales excellence officer.

On 10 May, Anis Chenchah resigned as president of Wipro's Asia Pacific, India, Middle East and Africa region, citing personal reasons, and was replaced by Vinay Firake, a company veteran with more than 28 years of experience.

In August, Sandhya Arun took over as company's chief technology officer, replacing Subha Tatavarti, who put in her papers to explore other options outside Wipro. The last top-level change was of Srikumar Rao, who succeeded Harmeet Chauhan in October to head Engineering Edge, which is Wipro's engineering business.
