DuPont Analysis

ROE 18.0% broken into three drivers. Each shows how efficiently the company generates returns.

ROE18.0%=
8.6%Net Margin
×
0.6xTurnover
×
3.4xLeverage

ROE of 17.97% is moderate margin-driven and stable. Net margin of 8.6% × asset turnover of 0.61x × leverage of 3.4x.

What This Means

Net margin of 8.6% means the company keeps ₹8.6 as profit for every ₹100 of revenue. This is a moderate-margin business. Asset turnover of 0.61x means the company efficiently uses its assets to generate revenue. Leverage of 3.4x means the company uses significant debt. Higher leverage amplifies returns but also risk.
