Where growth can come from, and what can break the case
Q4 FY26 revenue declined 13.0% YoY to Rs 3,449 Mn but grew 99.2% QoQ. EBITDA rose 29.0% YoY and 148.5% QoQ to Rs 1,928 Mn, with margins at 55.9%. FY26 revenue grew 30.6% YoY. Order book reached Rs 9,265 Mn, providing strong visibility.
Data Patterns delivered strong FY26 growth and a record order book of Rs 9,265 Mn, providing revenue visibility. While Q4 revenue declined YoY, sequential growth was robust, indicating execution momentum. High margins and net debt-free status are positives. Management's 20-25% revenue growth outlook and capex plans support future expansion, but the Q4 YoY revenue dip warrants monitoring.

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.
Healthy Trust: Claim history is still being built. It ranks around the 93rd percentile of the scored universe and 92nd percentile within Industrials. No major sub-score weakness stands out.
High Trust Lite: Promoter pledge is zero. Key concern: OPM spread across recent quarters is 34%.
Generally investable credibility. Look for weak sub-scores before increasing position size.

How to read this Trust Score
Healthy 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.
Forensic breakdown
Read low sub-scores as due-diligence warnings, not automatic sell signals.
Trust positives
- ▸Promoter pledge is zero.
- ▸FCF yield is positive at 0.3%.
- ▸6 years of positive FCF.
- ▸Debt/equity is 0.00.
Trust risks
- ▸OPM spread across recent quarters is 34%.
Trust Lite uses financial behaviour only. Prefer claim-tested Trust when enough concall claims have later outcomes.
