Methodology

Price is the daily close from stored Kite history. The other metrics pair that daily price with the company's periodic filings — each fundamental (revenue, EPS, equity…) is held flat at its latest filed value between annual filings, so a ratio steps at each filing and moves daily only through its price term. A metric with no input on file for this company (e.g. EV/EBITDA for a bank, which has no EBIT) is shown as unavailable, never guessed. Share-count-based metrics use the latest diluted share count against split/bonus-adjusted prices.

Technical analysis

Technical indicators

Same window as the price chart above

These reflect only the stock's recent price and volume behavior — not the company's fundamentals — and are not a recommendation to buy or sell. Standard published parameters are used throughout (see each chart's own label); a company with too little stored price history for a given indicator's lookback window shows that plainly below rather than a garbage or misleading value.

Methodology

MACD (12,26,9), Stochastic Oscillator (14,3) and Money Flow Index (14-day) each carry their own published reference lines/bands (20/80 for the oscillator readings) where one is standard. ADX includes +DI/-DI for direction alongside trend strength; a dashed line marks the commonly published 25 "trending market" reading. ATR is shown in raw rupees here; the price/volume preset screen (below, and on the Screener page) reports it as a % of price so it's comparable across stocks at different price levels. Computed from the same stored daily OHLCV history as the price chart above — no new data source.

Fundamental analysis

Ratios

Calculated from this company's filed figures, and from the current price where a ratio needs one. Every ratio shows its source trace: the filed elements it reads and the arithmetic behind the result.

P/E

68.06

P/E = Price / EPS

Source trace FY2023-24 · Annual filing

P/E = Price / (ProfitOrLossAttributableToOwnersOfParent / PaidUpValueOfEquityShareCapital ÷ FaceValueOfEquityShareCapital) → ₹1,381.60 / (₹5,461,000,000 / 269,000,000 shares) = ₹1,381.60 / ₹20.30 EPS

ROE

17.13%

ROE = Net Income / Shareholder Equity

Source trace FY2023-24 · Annual filing

ROE = ProfitOrLossAttributableToOwnersOfParent / EquityAttributableToOwnersOfParent → ₹5,461,000,000 / ₹31,881,000,000 = 17.13%

Debt/Equity

0.03

Debt/Equity = Total Debt / Shareholder Equity

Source trace FY2023-24 · Annual filing

Debt/Equity = BorrowingsCurrent + BorrowingsNoncurrent / EquityAttributableToOwnersOfParent → ₹964,000,000 / ₹31,881,000,000 = 0.03

Current Ratio

1.77

Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities

Source trace FY2023-24 · Annual filing

Current Ratio = CurrentAssets / CurrentLiabilities → ₹19,856,000,000 / ₹11,212,000,000 = 1.77

ROCE

23.22%

ROCE = EBIT / (Shareholder Equity + Total Debt)

Source trace FY2023-24 · Annual filing

ROCE = ProfitBeforeExceptionalItemsAndTax + FinanceCosts / (EquityAttributableToOwnersOfParent + BorrowingsCurrent + BorrowingsNoncurrent) → ₹7,628,000,000 / (₹31,881,000,000 + ₹964,000,000) = 23.22%

Dividend Yield

0.27%

Dividend Yield = (Dividends Paid / Diluted Shares Outstanding) / Price

Qualification This is cash paid during the fiscal year, not a per-share rate declared for it (no such element exists in the filing data) — timing can straddle interim/final dividends across years, and pre-FY2020-21 figures may include the since-abolished Dividend Distribution Tax, reading higher than later years for that reason alone.

Source trace FY2023-24 · Annual filing

Dividend Yield = (|DividendsPaidClassifiedAsFinancingActivities| / PaidUpValueOfEquityShareCapital ÷ FaceValueOfEquityShareCapital) / Price → (₹1,007,000,000 / 269,000,000 shares) / ₹1,381.60 = ₹3.74 / ₹1,381.60

Forensic accounting

Beneish M-Score

Eight year-over-year accounting indices (Beneish, 1999) computed for Astral Ltd. across its two most recently stored annual filings. Read the disclosures below before anything past this paragraph.

This is not an accusation and not a finding that any manipulation occurred. Beneish's own paper is explicit that the score identifies companies whose accounting CHARACTERISTICS resemble those of a sample of past manipulators -- nothing more. StockProof never labels a company "manipulator", "red flag" or "suspicious", and never shows any list of companies ordered by this score. The eight components below -- factual statements about figures the company itself filed -- always come before the composite number, which is the inference, not the fact.

The M-Score is calibrated on 74 US-listed companies from 1982-1992 later found to have manipulated earnings (Beneish, M. D. (1999), "The Detection of Earnings Manipulation", Financial Analysts Journal 55(5)) -- not on any Indian company or era. Measured on StockProof's own Nifty 500 universe as of 2026-09-02, 13.6% of companies score above Beneish's own published cutoff. On any realistic base rate of actual earnings manipulation, that flag rate is overwhelmingly false positives, not overwhelmingly real ones.

No "Selling, General & Administrative Expense" element exists anywhere in NSE's filed data. The SGAI component below is approximated as Employee Benefit Expense + Other Expenses, divided by revenue -- a reasonable stand-in for a manufacturer, but for a services company this proxy is closer to the entire cost base than to SG&A specifically. This is disclosed because it is a genuine deviation from Beneish's published specification; its coefficient (-0.172) is the smallest of the eight, which bounds how far the approximation can move the composite.

This measures something different from a financial-distress score like Altman's Z-Score, and the two essentially never agree. Measured on StockProof's own 389-company overlap as of 2026-09-02: only 5 companies were flagged by both, an agreement rate (intersection ÷ union) of 6.2%, and a correlation between the two scores of +0.088 -- closely matching the independently measured +0.092 over 3,242 Malaysian-listed companies. A low Z-Score and a high M-Score are not corroborating each other; they are unrelated measurements.

Comparing FY2024-25FY2025-26

Index Value Beneish's own threshold Reading, vs. that threshold
DSRI — Days' Sales in Receivables Index 0.969 1.031 Below Beneish's published threshold
GMI — Gross Margin Index 0.995 1.014 Below Beneish's published threshold
AQI — Asset Quality Index 0.881 1.039 Below Beneish's published threshold
SGI — Sales Growth Index 1.126 1.134 Below Beneish's published threshold
DEPI — Depreciation Index 0.936 1.077 Below Beneish's published threshold
SGAI — SG&A Index 1.010 1.041 Below Beneish's published threshold
LVGI — Leverage Index 1.115 1.111 Exceeds Beneish's published threshold
TATA — Total Accruals to Total Assets -0.100 0.018 Below Beneish's published threshold
M-Score (composite) -2.960 Beneish's own published cutoff: -1.78 (a looser cutoff sometimes used in Indian applications: -2.22)

This is a reading against a published statistical model, not a finding and not a verdict on this company -- see the disclosures above, especially how this compares to a general population's own measured false-positive rate.

Delivery quantity/percentage from the NSE bhavcopy (DELIV_QTY/DELIV_PER) — the share of that day's traded volume that actually settled into a demat account, rather than being squared off intraday. A higher delivery percentage is commonly read as genuine accumulation/distribution rather than speculative same-day trading; this describes recent trading PATTERN, not the company itself, and is not a recommendation to buy or sell. A blank cell is a day NSE itself published no figure for, never a zero.
