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 35th percentile of the scored universe and 51st percentile within Financial Services. Main check: balance sheet trust is weak at 8/100.
Healthy Trust Lite: Promoter pledge is zero. Key concern: Debt/equity is 4.02.
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.
Forensic breakdown
Read low sub-scores as due-diligence warnings, not automatic sell signals.
