"General Motors accounts for less than 1 per cent of Wipro's IT services segment revenue, and our assessment is that a substantial portion is expected to continue," the company statement read.

"Our accounts receivable as on the date of filing is under $8 million. Based on our current assessment, we do not expect significant adverse impact on account of this development," it added.

General Motors had filed for bankruptcy Monday, becoming the largest-ever US manufacturer to enter the court process and marking the latest dark chapter for the struggling US auto industry.

Wipro posted a net profit of Rs 38.99 billion (Rs 3,899 crore) for fiscal 2008-09, registering a 19 per cent year-on-year growth.
