Weekly engine runs — movement reflects the numbers, not analyst opinion.
A high-quality, fast-growing business, trading cheap versus its own history.
Zensar Technologies is scored on the it / services framework. It keeps a healthy 13.1% of every rupee of sales as net profit. Cash broadly tracks reported profit (CFO/PAT 1.00×). It throws off free cash worth 5.1% of its market value — a strong free-cash yield.
Over the last 3 years revenue compounded at 6%/yr and profit at 33%/yr. Book value itself has compounded 17%/yr — the hallmark of a genuine compounder. Return on equity is a healthy 16.4%. In the latest quarter profit fell 13% versus the prior quarter.
At 13× earnings, the stock sits at the 2nd percentile of its own 3.5-year range — the cheap end of where it has historically traded. Today's price asks for only ~3%/yr growth over a decade — undemanding expectations. 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. 6% CAGR — growing but slowly.
Profit is growing faster than revenue (33% vs 6%) — margin expansion is at work.
Operating margin has expanded from 9% to 17% — the business is keeping more of each rupee earned.
ROE at 16% — a respectable return on shareholder capital. Capital efficiency improving — ROE up 5pp across the window.
33% 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. Low quarterly variance (6% spread) — a predictable, non-seasonal revenue stream.
Profit fell 13% QoQ — one-quarter drops can be noise, but a pattern matters.
How today's P/E compares to the stock's own historical range. Dashed line = the 3.5y median.
Promoters at 49.0% — dispersed ownership; institutional flows drive the stock. FIIs trimmed 2.6pp — foreign money is rotating out.
