Shares of Wipro on Friday fell after the company reported lower revenue in its fiscal first quarter.

The stock was down 12% to $6.10 in morning trading. Shares have risen 24% over the past 12 months.

The technology services and consulting company reported a gross revenue of $2.64 billion, down 3.8% from the same period a year earlier. The drop was mainly driven by its IT services segment, which reported a revenue drop of 5.5% from last year.
