Cyclical valuation: normalized earnings, not just trailing PE
Cyclical companies can look cheapest near peak profits, so IndiaPulse flags value-trap risk separately.

Factor attribution
Trust asks: does management behaviour match later outcomes? Higher is better, but confidence and evidence depth matter as much as the number.
Mixed Trust: Claim history is still being built. It ranks around the 49th percentile of the scored universe and 45th percentile within Industrials. Main check: results consistency is weak at 15/100.
Healthy Trust Lite: Promoter pledge is zero. Key concern: 3 recent quarters had PAT decline worse than 25% YoY.
Usable, but needs evidence. Treat guidance with a margin of safety.
