DuPont Analysis
ROE 20.3% broken into three drivers. Each shows how efficiently the company generates returns.
ROE of 20.27% is strong margin-driven and stable. Net margin 9.0%, asset turnover 0.66x, leverage 3.4x.
What This Means
Net margin of 9.0% means the company keeps ₹9.0 as profit for every ₹100 of revenue. This is a moderate-margin business. Asset turnover of 0.66x 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.
Margin Structure
Gross

Operating

Net
9.0%
Gross margin 37.4% → operating margin 17.5% → net margin 9.0%. Margins are IMPROVING. Strong pricing power with stable gross margins suggests the improvement is from operating leverage — sustainable.

Free Cash Flow
STRONGFCF margin at 1.0% — barely positive. Limited cash after capex.
