Daily technical trend read

Mixed signals

Signals are conflicting — long-term uptrend intact. RSI 45. Wait for confirmation.

Price above SMA200 (long-term uptrend) but mid-term MAs not aligned.
SMA20 falling (~5.8% over last month) — short-term momentum negative.
RSI(14) at 45 — sideways, no extreme reading.
MACD above signal, histogram expanding — bullish momentum building.
14% off 52W high · 34% 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.

Sector valuation model

Blended valuation: PE, EV/EBITDA, FCF yield, and balance-sheet checks

For this sector, IndiaPulse uses a blended lens rather than relying on a single valuation ratio.

Blended relative

Primary lens

PE, EV/EBITDA, margin of safety, and FCF yield together.

Secondary checks

ROE/ROCE, growth, cash conversion, leverage, promoter risk.

Main risk check

One cheap metric is not enough if quality or cash flow is weak.

Management commentary snapshot

Info Edge reported strong Q4 FY26 revenue growth across segments, with Recruitment Solutions and 99acres showing sequential and YoY improvement. 99acres turned profitable in Q4, a key positive, though full-year losses persisted. Net profit was significantly boosted by exceptional gains from investment revaluation.

While core recruitment and real estate segments show revenue growth and 99acres achieved Q4 profitability, the ongoing whistle-blower investigation in 99acres and the full-year loss in the segment are concerning. The impact of tax rate changes on deferred tax also adds a layer of complexity.

Others9.9%

Growth engines

Recruitment Solutions

INTACT

This segment continues to be the largest revenue contributor, showing consistent YoY and QoQ growth in Q4 FY26.

UNDER_STRESS

A whistle-blower complaint alleging violations and/or fraudulent actions by certain employees in the 99acres segment is under investigation by an independent law firm and forensic experts.

Investment Valuation Volatility

INTACT

Significant unrealized mark-to-market gains/losses on financial investments (e.g., PB Fintech) are routed through OCI, leading to volatility in comprehensive income.

Merger Scheme Delays

UNDER_STRESS

The scheme of amalgamation for wholly-owned subsidiaries faces an appeal before NCLAT against an NCLT order, potentially delaying integration benefits.

Nov 2025

Analyst reading lens

Compare BOTH

Trust asks: does management behaviour match later outcomes? Higher is better, but confidence and evidence depth matter as much as the number.

Mixed Trust: Management has 100% delivered/partly-delivered outcomes on 3 checked claims. It ranks around the 56th percentile of the scored universe and 64th percentile within Services. Main check: financial discipline is weak at 48/100.

Mixed Trust · medium confidence

What it measures

Reliability of management and financial delivery, using management claims matched with later outcomes.

Confidence

Useful directional evidence exists, but still verify the latest filings.

Investor use

Acceptable, but check the weakest sub-score before increasing exposure.

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.

Read low sub-scores as due-diligence warnings, not automatic sell signals.
