AI GENERATEDInformation Technology
IT is supported by a still-expanding services backdrop and a weaker rupee. Export of services grew 13.0% YoY (2026-06), services PMI was 54.1 (Aug/26), and the currency at 95.23 (Sep/26) is depreciated versus the previous 95.16, which helps INR translation of export revenues. FPI positioning is only neutral-to-soft with net 3-month flow of INR -5 crore to 2026-08-31, so the positive stance is primarily macro-driven.
PROS
- Company is almost debt free
- Company has a healthy return on capital (ROCE) of 82.1%
- Company has a good return on equity (ROE) track record: 3 Years ROE 62.2%

- Company has delivered a poor profit growth of 9.7% over past five years
- Expensive relative to growth - PEG of 2.0
