Genpact Ltd (G) — wheel strategy suitability

Where G sits as an underlying for selling cash-secured puts and covered calls, and what its own price history says about the risk of being assigned into a falling stock. Snapshot of 3 October 2026.

82
Preferred
Wheel score is a landmine-avoidance filter, not a return forecast. It is reliable at flagging names to avoid and weaker at finely ranking the names that pass — read the band, not the decimal place.

Genpact Ltd (G) scores 82 on the Wheel score, which puts it in the preferred band for selling cash-secured puts and covered calls.

Its components sit close together (quality 70, valuation 75, margin stability —), so no single factor is doing the work.

It has monthly options only, which costs it a small liquidity haircut. Workable, but every roll commits you for a month.

Over the last 3.0 years it had 2 days with a fall of 10% or more (0.67 a year), a deepest drawdown of -49.4%, and a worst single session of -15.2%. That is in line with the median screened name (0.67 gap-downs a year, -44.9% typical worst drawdown).

Realised volatility runs about 33% annualised. That sits in the range where premium is worth collecting without the stock being wild.

Ownership context: a passive 13G filing on the register (13G 9.4% '22). A 13G is a passive holding disclosure, not a signal about the business. Large institutional ownership tends to come with steadier trading, nothing more.

There is no uptrend in the price right now, so assignment would leave you holding something that is not going up.
