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.

Weak fundamentals, while price trend supports entry. This looks more like momentum/speculation than a clean fundamental investment setup.

Daily technical trend read

Mixed signals

Signals are conflicting — long-term uptrend intact. RSI 60. Wait for confirmation.

  • Price > SMA20 > SMA50 > SMA200 — full bullish stack.
  • SMA20 rising (~2.6% over last month) — short-term momentum positive.
  • RSI(14) at 60 — falling, no extreme reading.
  • MACD below signal but histogram contracting — bearish momentum easing.
  • 4% off 52W high · 27% 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 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 2 checked claims. It ranks around the 16th percentile of the scored universe and 29th percentile within Financial Services. Main check: balance sheet trust is weak at 22/100.

Mixed Trust Lite: Promoter holding is 85.4%. Key concern: Operating cash flow is negative at ₹-37965 Cr.

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
Needs extra due diligence; demand valuation comfort and recent improvement.

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.
