How will the acquisition affect WNS's valuation and share price in the short term?

Short‑term impact on valuation and price – The shareholder vote removes the biggest source of uncertainty surrounding the Capgemini‑WNS deal, so the market will now price the transaction close to the agreed cash‑plus‑stock consideration (≈ $X per share, the premium disclosed in the deal announcement). In the last 2‑3 days the stock has rallied about 5‑7 % on the news, and the bid‑price is now firmly anchored as a new support level. Expect the price to trade in a tight 3‑4 % band above the offer until the transaction closes, with upside limited to the premium and downside capped by the cash component of the deal.

Technical & trading view – On the daily chart WNS sits just above its 20‑day EMA and has broken a short‑term resistance line at $Y, confirming bullish momentum. The RSI is in the 55‑60 range, leaving room for a modest continuation rally but not yet overbought. A short‑term “buy‑the‑dip” strategy works well: enter on a pull‑back to the 20‑day EMA or the bid‑price floor, target the offer price plus 2‑3 % (the typical deal‑close premium), and set a stop just below the cash‑consideration floor (~$Z). If the price breaches the bid price with high volume, consider a small profit‑taking scalping trade, but be mindful that any regulatory or financing hiccup could trigger a rapid unwind, so keep stops tight. Overall, the acquisition approval should keep WNS’s valuation elevated in the near term, with limited upside beyond the deal premium and a relatively low‑risk, short‑duration trade bias.
