3.2xLeverage

ROE of -22.98% is modest margin-driven and stable. Net margin of -25.4% × asset turnover of 0.28x × leverage of 3.2x.

What This Means

Net margin of -25.4% means the company keeps ₹-25.4 as profit for every ₹100 of revenue. This is a low-margin business. Asset turnover of 0.28x means the company generates ₹0.28 of revenue for every ₹1 of assets. This is a capital-heavy business. Leverage of 3.2x means the company uses significant debt. Higher leverage amplifies returns but also risk.
