One read, four checks

75+ is strong, 60-74 is usable, 45-59 is mixed, and below 45 needs caution. These are research lenses, not buy/sell instructions.

Mixed fundamentals, management trust is supportive, price trend is neutral, and recent execution is consistent.

Daily technical trend read

Neutral

Trend is undirectional — long-term trend unclear. RSI 54.

  • SMA20 rising (~2.1% over last month) — short-term momentum positive.
  • RSI(14) at 54 — sideways, no extreme reading.
  • MACD above signal but histogram contracting — bullish momentum cooling.
  • 4% off 52W high · 15% 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 Score
80Healthy Trust · low confidenceTrust Lite

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 90th percentile of the scored universe and 87th percentile within Pharma. No major sub-score weakness stands out.

High Trust Lite: Promoter holding is 56.5%. Key concern: ROCE trend is -2.6%.

How to read this Trust Score

Healthy Trust · low confidence
What it measures
Reliability of management and financial delivery, using financial behaviour only.
Confidence
Treat this as an early read until more concalls and outcomes are matched.
Investor use
Can support position sizing if valuation and trend also agree.

Read 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 holding is 56.5%.
  • Promoter pledge is zero.
  • 4 years of positive FCF.
  • ROCE is 24.1%.

Trust risks

  • ROCE trend is -2.6%.

Trust Lite uses financial behaviour only. Prefer claim-tested Trust when enough concall claims have later outcomes.
