IL&FS INVESTMENT MANAGERS is scored on the nbfc / financials framework. It keeps a slim 8.5% of every rupee of sales as net profit.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at -5%/yr and profit at -30%/yr. Net worth has actually shrunk (-4%/yr) — value is not being built. Return on equity is a weak 2.7%. In the latest quarter profit fell 69% versus the prior quarter.
At 66× earnings, the stock sits at the 90th percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the expensive end of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~16%/yr earnings growth for a decade. The books come through clean — a forensic grade of A.

Negative CAGR — the top line has shrunk over this window. Growth is accelerating — latest year outpaced the prior year's rate.
Revenue is outpacing profit (-5% vs -30%) — costs are rising faster than the top line. The latest year saw a -67% swing — check if it's a one-off or structural.
Operating margin has compressed from 29% to 16% — costs or competition are eating into profitability.
ROE at 2% — modest; the capital isn't working hard.
EPS dropped in the latest year despite possible profit changes — dilution or a profit dip could be at play. -32% EPS CAGR — this is the rate at which each share's claim on earnings is compounding.
3 of 4 years had negative operating cash flow — profitability on paper may not translate to cash. Cash conversion at 4.6× PAT — earnings are well-backed by cash; strong accrual quality. Financing outflows in consecutive years — balance-sheet discipline through debt repayment or dividends.
When operating cash keeps pace with reported profit, earnings are cash-backed; a persistent shortfall is a quality flag.
Revenue fell 77% QoQ — could be seasonality or a genuine slowdown. Wide quarterly swings (81% spread) — likely seasonality, lumpy orders, or project-based revenue. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 212% above earlier ones.
1 of 4 quarters loss-making — quarterly profitability is uneven. Profit fell 69% QoQ — one-quarter drops can be noise, but a pattern matters. Quarterly margins are compressing (48% → 15%) — more revenue isn't translating to proportionally more profit.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 3.6y median.
Promoter holding at 50.4% — majority control intact.
