Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A decent, slow-growing business, trading cheap versus its own history.
C.E. Info Systems is scored on the it / services framework. It keeps a fat 25.4% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Cash conversion lags the reported profit (CFO/PAT 0.70×) — worth a closer look. Free cash flow is worth about 1.0% of its market value.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 19%/yr and profit at 8%/yr. Book value itself has compounded 19%/yr — the hallmark of a genuine compounder. Return on equity is a healthy 15.9%. In the latest quarter profit fell 2% versus the prior quarter.
At 34× earnings, the stock sits at the 3rd percentile of its own 3.6-year range — the cheap end of where it has historically traded. Today's price implies ~14%/yr earnings growth for a decade. The books come through clean — a forensic grade of A, and Altman puts distress risk in the safe zone.

Revenue has grown every year across all 4 financial years shown. 19% CAGR over 3 years — steady double-digit compounder. Growth is decelerating — latest year grew slower than the year before.
Profit is on a 2-year growth streak. Revenue is outpacing profit (19% vs 8%) — costs are rising faster than the top line.
Operating margin has compressed from 44% to 36% — costs or competition are eating into profitability. Margins have declined for 3 consecutive years — watch for a structural cost problem.
ROE at 15% — a respectable return on shareholder capital. Capital efficiency declining — ROE down 5pp.
EPS dropped in the latest year despite possible profit changes — dilution or a profit dip could be at play. 6% EPS CAGR — this is the rate at which each share's claim on earnings is compounding.
Operating cash flow has been positive every year — the business generates real cash, not just accounting profit. Heavy investing spend every year, but operations generate enough to cover it — the business self-funds its growth. 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 broadly flat QoQ — stable but not accelerating. Wide quarterly swings (36% spread) — likely seasonality, lumpy orders, or project-based revenue. Run-rate stepping up — recent quarters average 41% above earlier ones.
Quarterly net margins are expanding (15% → 31%) — profitability per rupee of revenue is improving.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 3.6y median.
Promoter holding at 51.4% — majority control intact. FIIs trimmed 2.7pp — foreign money is rotating out. MF holding up 3.3pp — domestic institutional discovery underway.
