Was the rally earned?
Partly.
- Most of the rise came from investors paying a higher multiple (P/E 10.3x to 15.7x); per-share earnings took off 35 points.
- The share count fell 3%.
Earnings helped, the multiple did not.
- Per-share earnings added 60 points, but investors now pay less per rupee of profit (P/E 39.6x to 15.7x), which took 82 points back.
- The share count rose 26%.
What do "pts" mean?
"pts" are percentage points of the share price return. The parts add up to the total shown for each period. Because price = P/E × net profit ÷ share count, higher profit pushes the price up, a higher P/E pushes it up, and more shares push it down.
Example: if the price rose 34% and profit growth accounts for +58 pts while a lower P/E accounts for -24 pts, then 58 - 24 = 34. The +58 is not the profit growth rate itself: it is the part of the price move that profit growth explains.
Not shown for 5 years: earnings were negative at one end, or there is not enough history.
Net profit is trailing twelve months as reported with a 60-day lag.

Where does it rank among Commercial Services peers?
Each cell is the company's percentile rank among its Commercial Services peers (non-financial companies) that month.
Darker is better-ranked.
Rows marked ↓ are inverted (lower debt, shorter cash cycle and a lower P/E rank higher).
