Mogae Group executive director Tanya Goyal said, “In the recent years a massive surge in the use of smartphones and now tablets have made it essential to adapt your web pages to meet the needs of their users.

According to the company, to achieve a balanced apprach to SEO and Pay per Click (PPC), an understanding of how the various search results and adverts are displayed across a range of popular platforms is required. It is also vital to keep up-to-date with the latest technologies and gadgets and their impact on user behaviour as well as search engine policies. Mobiwise aims to help clients through this maze and make sure their business is being found by users of the latest phones, tablets and other devices.
The users of handheld devices can view sponsored ads for business when performing relevant searches.

The mobile pay-per-click and pay-per-call advertising services ensure that ads are delivered to potential customers even when they are browsing the internet away from their home or office.
The on-site optimisation includes mobile web analysis and SEO audit report, mobile website accessibility and usability recommendations, domain research, keyword research for mobile browsers, content optimization and HTML code optimization. Meanwhile, the off-site optimisation includes mobile search engines submission, mobile search engines optimization and marketing, submission of website in local mobile directories, link building campaign for both general as well as niche theme related website, other custom website promotion activities such as press release submission, article submission, social media marketing, niche forum and blog posting.
“At Mogae Media we are trying to provide single window solutions for the mobile medium. We believe the market is close to an explosive inflection point. Mogae, with Mobocracy and Mobiwise, will be in the forefront of mobile communication,” Goyal added.
Mogae Media was set up in October 2011 by Sandeep Goyak and Tanya Goyal, former JV partners of Dentsu in India.

Wipro hires 7,500 freshers, withholds FY27 hiring outlook
Profit rises to Rs 3,522 crore, Rs 15,000 crore buyback announced.
MUMBAI- Hiring may be on, but visibility is off, Wipro is adding talent even as it pauses the crystal ball. The company hired 7,500 freshers in FY26 but stopped short of offering any hiring outlook for FY27, underscoring the uncertainty gripping the IT services sector as it pivots towards an AI-led operating model.
The disclosure came alongside its fourth-quarter earnings, where management flagged volatile demand conditions and refrained from committing to future workforce expansion. Chief human resources officer Saurabh Govil noted that over 3,000 of the total hires were onboarded in the March quarter alone, signalling continued intake despite a lack of clarity on deployment pipelines.
This divergence active hiring without forward guidance reflects a broader industry pattern where talent acquisition continues even as deal conversions remain uneven and client spending cycles stretch. Wipro expects its IT services revenue for the June quarter to range between a decline of 2 per cent and flat growth sequentially in constant currency terms, reinforcing near-term caution.
Chief executive officer Srini Pallia pointed to artificial intelligence as both a disruptor and an opportunity. He said evolving client priorities are pushing the company towards outcome-driven engagements, with Wipro increasingly focusing on a services-as-software model through its AI Native Business and Platforms unit. The shift marks a structural change from traditional headcount-led growth to AI-enabled delivery frameworks.
The company has already committed over $1 billion to its AI ecosystem, with investors closely watching how these investments translate into revenue. For now, the numbers present a mixed picture. Net profit rose sequentially to Rs 3,522 crore, while revenue grew 3 per cent to Rs 24,236 crore. However, core IT services performance remained under pressure, with full-year revenue declining 0.3 per cent in dollar terms and 1.6 per cent in constant currency.
Large deal bookings offered a counterpoint, rising 45.4 per cent year-on-year to $7.8 billion, highlighting a widening gap between deal wins and actual revenue realisation. On a quarterly basis, IT services revenue slipped 1.2 per cent sequentially, signalling continued softness in execution.
Margins, however, told a more optimistic story. Operating margins expanded to 17.3 per cent in the fourth quarter, up from 14.8 per cent in the previous quarter, reflecting improved cost discipline. That said, the company cautioned that upcoming wage hikes and the ramp-up of large deals could exert pressure going forward.
Attrition stood at 13.8 per cent in the March quarter, indicating stabilisation after periods of elevated churn. Alongside its earnings, Wipro also announced a Rs 15,000 crore share buyback, reinforcing its focus on shareholder returns, with a payout ratio of 88 per cent over the past three years.
Taken together, the numbers capture a company in transition investing in AI, maintaining hiring momentum, but navigating a demand environment where growth is uneven and visibility remains limited.
