Reported net profit grew 193.6% (FY2025 → FY2026), but pre-tax profit was ₹-2,069 — a large exceptional item this year accounts for most of the gain, so the underlying trend is softer than the headline.

Operating cash flow was only 0.16× reported profit (FY2026).

Net worth compounded at 24.9% a year over 4 years (₹48,832 → ₹1,18,842) — though FY2024 saw a one-off step-change of 77% (a merger, restructuring or a recovery off a low base), so the compounding is uneven.

Free cash flow has been positive in 4 of the last 5 years.

Operating profit covers interest only 1.73× (FY2026).

Returns spanning those dates may be modestly overstated or understated.
