Analysis summary

Data coverage: Price-data record updated 25 August 2026, 7:12 am +05:30. Annual results through Mar 2025; quarterly results through Dec 2025; cash flow through Mar 2026. Each section can have a different reporting period. The share price is not live.

Valuation in context

Keynote Financial Services Ltd: the stored intrinsic value estimate is ₹222.97, compared with a stored share price of ₹263.00. The model value is 15.2% below that quote. The model classifies this as overvalued; it is an estimate dependent on the inputs and assumptions, not a price target or a buy/sell recommendation.

Operating performance

Revenue for Mar 2025 was ₹30.69 Cr, versus ₹49.23 Cr in Mar 2024 (-37.7% year on year). Net profit for Mar 2025 was ₹14.57 Cr, versus ₹26.79 Cr in Mar 2024 (-45.6% year on year). These are the latest annual periods stored on this page; check the quarterly table separately for more recent developments.

Cash generation

For the same Mar 2025 period, operating cash flow was ₹6.80 Cr against net profit of ₹14.57 Cr. Cash flow covered 0.47 times reported profit. The gap warrants checking receivables, working capital and one-off items in the cash-flow statement. For financial businesses, lending and investment movements can dominate operating cash flow; also examine asset quality, capital adequacy and the business mix.

Balance-sheet check

Reported borrowings were ₹4.14 Cr in Mar 2026. Read this alongside cash, interest costs and repayment obligations; reserves are an accounting balance and are not the same as available cash.

How to use the valuation and peer comparisons

The Intrinsic Value panel combines the available model estimates using the displayed weights. Earnings, cash-flow, dividend and asset-based methods can give very different answers. The displayed 12% cost of equity and 4% terminal growth assumptions apply where relevant; historical EPS growth is not a promise of future growth. Use the individual values and their spread to judge sensitivity.

The peer group follows the stored industry classification and may include different business models. Compare reporting periods, leverage and recurring earnings before interpreting a valuation gap. For banks and other financial businesses, capital adequacy and asset quality can be more informative than industrial-company cash-flow ratios.

Sources: Company data source. Check the company filings linked by the source for the reporting basis and exceptional items.

Automatically generated interpretation of the stored financial data, not a separately researched analyst opinion. Missing data is not evidence of poor performance. New filings become available here after the existing data refresh process captures them.
