Price and ratios are compiled from the exchange and third-party market data, cached and refreshed through the day — they are not Atlas facts and are not investment advice. Where a ratio is computed on more than one basis (for example standalone versus trailing-twelve-month), each is shown separately rather than averaged into a single number.

63/100
Solid Atlas Score — computed from 7 published figures
How this score is calculated
Measure Value Scores Source
P/E
What the market pays for each rupee of earnings. Lower is cheaper — but a low P/E can also mean the market expects earnings to fall.
10.94 100/100 Market data
P/B
Price against book value. Most meaningful for banks and asset-heavy businesses; software and consumer brands trade high here for good reasons.
1.04 100/100 Market data
ROE
Return on equity — profit generated per rupee of shareholder capital. Sustained high ROE is the clearest single marker of a good business.
10.24 50/100 Market data
ROCE
Return on capital employed — the same idea including debt, so it is harder to flatter with leverage.
12.88 50/100 Market data
Profit growth
Year-on-year growth in profit. Weighted above sales growth because profitable growth is the harder thing to do.
-14.92 0/100 Market data
Sales growth
Year-on-year growth in revenue.
6.30 50/100 Market data
Promoter holding
How much of the company its founders and controlling group still own. Higher usually means their money moves with yours.
74.14 100/100 Market data

The Atlas Score is our own arithmetic on the published figures above — nothing is hidden and nothing is bought in. It weighs quality and growth at 30% each, valuation at 25% and ownership at 15%, scoring each measure against fixed bands. Growth blends third-party market data with the fiscal-year figures we file and cite ourselves, so a company we have researched more deeply scores on richer evidence. A measure we could not fetch is left out of the average rather than counted as a zero. It is a summary of the numbers, not a recommendation, not a price target, and not advice about your circumstances.
