How to read the tags. Each of the 50 points gets one tag. Bullish the reading was favourable. Bearish the reading was unfavourable. Neutral the reading was in a normal range, or gave no clear message. Caution a warning sign or an unusual reading that deserves a closer look. Point 50 counts the other 49 tags. The chart is called positive when bullish tags beat bearish ones by 5 or more, negative when bearish tags beat bullish ones by 5 or more, and mixed otherwise. Under each point you will see what reading earns which tag. Tags describe the data on the snapshot date. They are not signals to buy or sell. Full guide to all 100 points →

A. Valuation

#	Point	Reading	Tag	Commentary
1	P/E (trailing 12 months)	63.8×	Neutral	At ₹429.05 the market valued the company at about ₹28,307 crore, or 63.8× the ₹444 crore profit of the four quarters to Mar 2026. That is a premium multiple — the market expected growth. How to read: Information only. Below 15 is a low multiple, 15–30 moderate, above 30 a premium (the market expects growth). Compare with peers and the company’s own history.
2	Price / Book	12.35×	Neutral	Market cap was 12.35× the Mar 2026 book value (equity + reserves) of ₹2,292 crore. How to read: Information only. Main yardstick for banks; asset-light businesses usually trade at high P/B.
3	Price / Sales	2.97×	Neutral	The company was valued at 2.97× its trailing-12-month sales of ₹9,529 crore. How to read: Information only.
4	EV / EBITDA (approx.)	17.6×	Neutral	Enterprise value (market cap + ₹4,902 cr borrowings; cash not netted) was 17.6× trailing operating profit of ₹1,883 crore. How to read: Information only. Lower means cheaper relative to operating profit.

6	PEG (P/E ÷ 3-yr profit CAGR)	8.02	Caution	P/E of 63.8 divided by 3-year profit growth of 7.9% a year gives a PEG of 8.02. Below 1 is often read as growth being cheaply priced; above 2 as expensive. Note: the Sep 2025 quarter carried unusual other income of ₹102 crore — a one-off that distorts year-on-year profit comparisons. Note: revenue jumped more than 40% in Mar 2025, which usually signals a merger or acquisition — multi-year growth rates are inflated by it. Bullish below 1 (growth cheaply priced) · Bearish above 2 (growth expensively priced) · Neutral 1–2, or when profit did not grow (not meaningful).
7	Dividend yield (trailing 12M)	0.28%	Neutral	Dividends with ex-dates in the 12 months to the snapshot totalled ₹1.2 a share, a 0.28% yield on the ₹429.05 price. Bullish above 3% · Neutral at 3% or less. Never tagged Bearish.
8	Market capitalisation	₹28,307 cr	Neutral	At about ₹0.28 lakh crore the company was a small-cap. How to read: Information only. Above ₹1 lakh crore large-cap, ₹30,000 crore–₹1 lakh crore mid-cap, below that small-cap (our rule of thumb).
9	Graham number vs price	₹72.53 vs ₹429.05	Neutral	Benjamin Graham's conservative fair-value yardstick √(22.5 × EPS × book value per share) came to ₹72.53; the price was 492% above it. Quality franchises usually trade above this number. Bullish price below the Graham number · Neutral when the price is above it (most quality companies are).

B. Growth

Caution if a one-off item distorted the figure.

14	Revenue CAGR (3 years)	22.6%	Caution	Revenue compounded at 22.6% a year from FY23 to FY26.

Bullish above 12% a year · Bearish below 5% a year · Neutral 5–12%. Caution if an acquisition inflated it.
15	Profit CAGR (3 years)	7.9%	Neutral	Net profit compounded at 7.9% a year from FY23 to FY26. Note: the Sep 2025 quarter carried unusual other income of ₹102 crore — a one-off that distorts year-on-year profit comparisons.

17	EPS growth FY26 (reported)	+103.4%	Caution	Reported EPS went from ₹3.19 to ₹6.49 (+103.4%). Differences from profit growth come from changes in share count (bonus, buyback, new issues). Note: the Sep 2025 quarter carried unusual other income of ₹102 crore — a one-off that distorts year-on-year profit comparisons. Bullish above 10% · Bearish below 0% · Neutral 0–10%.
