Trust score
Does management behaviour match later outcomes? Claim delivery, forensic breakdown, evidence depth
Trust asks: does management behaviour match later outcomes? Higher is better, but confidence and evidence depth matter as much as the number.
Mixed Trust: Management has 100% delivered/partly-delivered outcomes on 2 checked claims. It ranks around the 23rd percentile of the scored universe and 39th percentile within Financial Services. Main check: balance sheet trust is weak at 22/100.
Mixed Trust Lite: Promoter pledge is zero. Key concern: Operating cash flow is negative at ₹-2910 Cr.
Usable, but needs evidence. Treat guidance with a margin of safety.

How to read this Trust Score
Mixed Trust · low confidenceRead 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.
