How this score is built

Arithmetic, not opinion.

Five pillars, weighted Growth 25, Profitability 25, Balance sheet 20, Cash conversion 15, Governance 15. Each pillar is the plain average of its scored signals; the overall is the weighted average of scored pillars, renormalised when a pillar has nothing to score. Grades: A at 75 or above, B at 60, C at 45, D below.

Each signal maps a reported figure to 0–100 on a straight ramp between two anchors (for example ROE 0% → 0, 25% → 100) or, for trends, 50 ± a fixed amount per percentage point. There is no model, no weighting by sector, and no judgement call in the arithmetic.

Inputs are the reported tables: annual profit and loss, balance sheet, cash flow, ratios and the quarterly shareholding pattern. A promoter pledge is scored only when one is reported, so “not scored” there is not a clean bill. Auditor changes, related-party dealings and contingent liabilities are never in the input and are listed as not scored so the gap is visible. Banks and NBFCs use a different P&L layout, so several signals will show as not scored. Informational only — not investment advice.
