DCF discounts future cash flows to present value. Peer methods compare against sector multiples. Averaging both reduces the limitations of each method alone.

DCF not applicable for financial companies. Intrinsic value based on peer P/B comparison.

The intrinsic value shown is an algorithmic estimate based on publicly available financial data — including DCF analysis, peer comparison, and historical financials. It is not a research report, investment advice, or a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any security. Stock valuations involve uncertainty and may differ significantly from market prices.

Cash flow

Where cash comes from and where it goes.

Operating CFInvesting CFFinancing CFFree cash flow

Operating CF — Cash earned from running the business. The core engine of financial health.

Investing CF — Cash spent on assets and equipment. Negative is normal — it means the company is investing in growth.

Financing CF — Cash from borrowing or repaying loans and dividends. Negative means debt is being repaid.

Free cash flow — Operating CF minus capex. Cash left after keeping the business running. Positive and growing is ideal.

Shareholding pattern

Who owns this company and how that has changed.

What shareholding tells you: When promoters (founders/controlling shareholders) increase their stake, it usually signals confidence in the business. Rising FII (foreign funds) interest means international money is moving in. High promoter pledge is a risk — pledged shares can be force-sold if the stock price falls sharply.
