Revenue has grown every year across all 4 financial years shown. 42% CAGR over 3 years — high-growth territory. Growth is decelerating — latest year grew slower than the year before.
4 of the 4 years shown had a loss — profitability is inconsistent. The latest year saw a -89% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margin has expanded from -14% to -7% — the business is keeping more of each rupee earned.
Negative ROE — the business is destroying shareholder value. Capital efficiency declining — ROE down 12pp.
2 of 4 years had negative operating cash flow — profitability on paper may not translate to cash.
When operating cash keeps pace with reported profit, earnings are cash-backed; a persistent shortfall is a quality flag.
Revenue fell 11% QoQ — could be seasonality or a genuine slowdown. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 14% above earlier ones.
4 of 4 quarters loss-making — quarterly profitability is uneven. Profit fell 376% QoQ — one-quarter drops can be noise, but a pattern matters. Quarterly margins are compressing (-1% → -16%) — more revenue isn't translating to proportionally more profit.
P/E band unavailable — needs 5y of consistent EPS + price history.
Promoters at 40.9% — dispersed ownership; institutional flows drive the stock. Promoters added 1.8pp over 4 quarters — creeping acquisition signals conviction.
