Where growth can come from, and what can break the case
Q4 FY26 revenue from operations grew 26% YoY to ₹1,913.5 Mn, with FY26 revenue up 23% YoY to ₹7,346.0 Mn. Adjusted EBITDA for FY26 increased 43% YoY to ₹1,069.2 Mn, reflecting improving unit economics and operating leverage.

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: Claim history is still being built. It ranks around the 38th percentile of the scored universe and 36th percentile within IT. Main check: cash conversion is weak at 43/100.
Healthy Trust Lite: Promoter pledge is zero. Key concern: Only 1 years of positive FCF.
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.
