Mixed signalsSignals are conflicting — long-term uptrend intact. RSI 55. Wait for confirmation.
- Price > SMA20 > SMA50 > SMA200 — full bullish stack.
- SMA20 falling (~3.7% over last month) — short-term momentum negative.
- RSI(14) at 55 — rising, no extreme reading.
- MACD below signal but histogram contracting — bearish momentum easing.
- 10% off 52W high · 94% 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.

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 72nd percentile of the scored universe and 62nd percentile within Pharma. Main check: results consistency is weak at 57/100.
Healthy Trust Lite: Promoter pledge is zero. Key concern: OPM spread across recent quarters is 26%.
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 2.3%.
- ▸8 years of positive FCF.
- ▸3/4 latest quarters had positive YoY PAT growth.
Trust risks
- ▸OPM spread across recent quarters is 26%.
Trust Lite uses financial behaviour only. Prefer claim-tested Trust when enough concall claims have later outcomes.
