Are you sure you can connect to your LDAP using your credentials? I suggest to install some ldap client on your xwiki machine (e.g. ldap-utils) and try to connect to LDAP with entered in xwiki.cfg values. Taking your config try something like that:
authentication.ldap=1 authentication.ldap.server=blr-ec-dc01.wipro.com authentication.ldap.port=389 authentication.ldap.check_level=1 authentication.ldap.base_DN=dc=wipro,dc=com authentication.ldap.bind_DN=uid=wipro\<< my user id>>,ou=USERS,dc=wipro,dc=com
authentication.ldap.bind_pass=<<my password>> authentication.ldap.UID_attr=Mrudula Madiraju authentication.ldap.fields_mapping=name=Mrudula Madiraju,last_name=sn,first_name=givenName,fullname=displayName,mail=mail,ldap_dn=dn
ldapsearch -h blr-ec-dc01.wipro.com -p 389 \ -D 'uid=wipro\<< my user id>>,ou=USERS,dc=wipro,dc=com' -b 'dc=wipro,dc=com' \ -x -W \ '(<UID_attr>=<xwiki loginname>)' As you can see I've used in search filter '<UID_attr>', becaues I suppose that you don't have a field named 'Mrudula Madiraju' in you LDAP ;-). If your ldap was Active Directory you would have authentication.ldap.UID_attr=sAMAccountName in xwiki.cfg, and search field (sAMAccountName=<xwiki_loginname>) in your ldapsearch test.
