India stock market live: Yes Bank gets new CEO, Aurobindo buyback and Wipro deal lift stock focus

Indian equities are starting the week with several company-specific catalysts, led by a CEO change at Yes Bank, a share buyback at Aurobindo Pharma and a large deal announced by Wipro.

Yes Bank said Vinay Muralidhar Tonse would take over as managing director and chief executive officer from Prashant Kumar on April 6, 2026, following earlier approval from the Reserve Bank of India. The transition was announced on March 12.

Aurobindo Pharma approved a share buyback of up to ₹800 crore at ₹1,475 per share, with April 17, 2026 set as the record date for eligible shareholders. The company’s board approved the repurchase on April 6, according to market reports.

Wipro also drew market focus after saying it had secured an eight-year strategic transformation engagement with Olam Group. Wipro said the contract is expected to exceed $1 billion in value and includes the planned acquisition of Olam’s Mindsprint IT and digital services business, subject to approvals and closing conditions.

The Wipro announcement has been reported in the market as one of its largest such engagements and adds a major long-term revenue relationship to the company’s stock story. For Aurobindo, the buyback is a direct shareholder-return move, while Yes Bank’s leadership handover marks an important management transition.

Together, the three updates are likely to keep stock-specific trading active even as broader market sentiment is shaped by global cues and domestic flows.
