Daily technical trend read

Bullish setup

Trend is constructive — long-term uptrend intact. RSI 66.

  • Price > SMA20 > SMA50 > SMA200 — full bullish stack.
  • SMA20 rising (~4.7% over last month) — short-term momentum positive.
  • RSI(14) at 66 — sideways, no extreme reading.
  • MACD above signal but histogram contracting — bullish momentum cooling.
  • 3% off 52W high · 280% above 52W low.

Mechanical read from the price + indicator series above. Not a recommendation — technical setups can reverse without warning, especially around earnings and macro events.

Does management behaviour match later outcomes? Claim delivery, forensic breakdown, evidence depth

Trust Score
63Mixed Trust · low confidenceTrust Lite

Trust asks: does management behaviour match later outcomes? Higher is better, but confidence and evidence depth matter as much as the number.

Mixed Trust: Claim history is still being built. It ranks around the 38th percentile of the scored universe and 40th percentile within Services. Main check: cash conversion is weak at 28/100.

Healthy Trust Lite: Promoter holding is 69.6%. Key concern: Operating cash flow is negative at ₹-53 Cr.

How to read this Trust Score

Mixed Trust · low confidence
What it measures
Reliability of management and financial delivery, using financial behaviour only.
Confidence
Treat this as an early read until more concalls and outcomes are matched.
Investor use
Acceptable, but check the weakest sub-score before increasing exposure.

Read Trust alongside U-Score, result consistency, and technical trend. A cheap stock with weak Trust needs a larger margin of safety; a high Trust score does not make an expensive stock attractive by itself.

Forensic breakdown

Read low sub-scores as due-diligence warnings, not automatic sell signals.

Trust positives

  • Promoter holding is 69.6%.
  • Promoter pledge is zero.
  • ROCE is 31.4%.
  • Latest 3 quarters had positive YoY PAT growth.

Trust risks

  • Operating cash flow is negative at ₹-53 Cr.
  • Only 1 years of positive FCF.
  • Debt/equity is 1.33.
  • ROCE trend is -5.6%.

Trust Lite uses financial behaviour only. Prefer claim-tested Trust when enough concall claims have later outcomes.
