DuPont Analysis
ROE 26.3% broken into three drivers. Each shows how efficiently the company generates returns.
ROE of 26.26% is strong margin-driven and stable. Net margin 19.7%, asset turnover 0.47x, leverage 2.8x.
What This Means
Net margin of 19.7% means the company keeps ₹19.7 as profit for every ₹100 of revenue. This is a healthy margin. Asset turnover of 0.47x means the company generates ₹0.47 of revenue for every ₹1 of assets. This is a capital-heavy business. Leverage of 2.8x means the company uses moderate debt. Returns are primarily driven by operations, not borrowing.
