Finance - Capital Markets, equal-weighted, based at 200 NIFTY 500, same base, same start trailing 12-month earnings per share rising falling

Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the distance between them is the whole story: the sector line is an equal-weighted index of its 6 companies. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member rebased to 100 at the start and the sector taking the median — so a price line pulling away from flat bars is a re-rating, not earnings. A bar turns red when that figure is lower than the quarter before. Rules are fixed and applied identically everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover any point to read both values and the gap. This is a description of what the numbers did, not advice.

03 · sector relative strength, before individual stocks

Is Finance - Capital Markets outperforming NIFTY 500?

Finance - Capital Markets has underperformed NIFTY 500 by 12.8% over the last 52 weeks. Over 13 weeks the gap is a lead of 3%. 1 of 6 covered companies currently beats NIFTY on Mansfield relative strength, so leadership inside the sector is selective. Prudent Corporate Advisory Services Ltd is the strongest against the sector itself at +24.6%.

The central tension: the companies with the most scale are not necessarily the companies creating the most change.

Start with scale. Then earnings trajectory. Then business quality. Only after those three agree should price leadership carry much weight.

Bottom line

Finance - Capital Markets has underperformed NIFTY 500 by 12.8% over 52 weeks and 3% over 13 weeks. 1 of 6 covered companies beat NIFTY on Mansfield relative strength, while 2 of 5 beat the sector itself. Centrum Capital Ltd leads with income of ₹3,643 crore, based on 6 of 6 comparable companies through Jun 2026.

4-Factor Sector Score

An additive sector-relative research score. The four displayed point contributions always equal the total: Growth & earnings (35), Capital efficiency (25), Valuation (20), and Relative strength (20). Missing or stale evidence is absorbed inside the affected factor, never applied as a hidden adjustment.

Growth & earnings · 35%Capital efficiency · 25%Valuation · 20%Relative strength · 20%
Prudent Corporate Advisory Services Ltd has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 60.6% evidence confidence.
Aditya Birla Money Ltd looks inexpensive relative to peers or its own history, but its earnings trajectory has not yet earned the valuation signal.
How this score is built, and what the marks mean

Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. Financial companies use P/BV÷ROE and asset quality; PEG, industrial OPM and ROCE are excluded. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led NIFTY 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step curve the sector itself is placed on — basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep — read from how many weeks running it has led NIFTY 500 and whether that lead is widening or shrinking. It describes where the PRICE stands, not the earnings trajectory and not a recommendation, and it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read.

05 · what price has already done

Market action

Prudent Corporate Advisory Services Ltd has the strongest one-year price move in Finance - Capital Markets at +25.1%. It also leads on Mansfield relative strength against NIFTY at +26%. 1 of 6 covered companies is above zero on that measure. Every line covers 313 weekly closes through 2026-09-11.

Price and relative strength

Every company, the sector's own index and NIFTY 500 all start level on the left edge of the window, so only the distance between the lines counts — the highest line has risen the most since then, and the chart at the top of this page is drawn the same way. It opens on one year; the buttons beside it stretch that to three or five.

06 · the story behind the numbers

Finance - Capital Markets — the story behind the numbers

This is the written read behind the Finance - Capital Markets figures above — what is actually happening in the sector, in words, with the evidence each claim rests on. It is dated 17 Apr 2026, so the words are older than the numbers. 2 themes are live here.

PRUDENT's 22.4% YoY AUM growth, market share expansion, and clear margin visibility underscore an upward fundamental trajectory. While regulatory adjustments require careful navigation, the company's scale and consolidation war chest provide a buffer.

The Capital Markets sector, represented by Prudent Corporate Advisory Services (PRUDENT), is experiencing an IMPROVING demand environment. PRUDENT reported a net profit of ₹57.6 Cr for Q3 FY26, marking a 19.6% YoY and 7.6% QoQ growth. Equity AUM surged 22.4% YoY to ₹125,700 Cr, reflecting retail participation and sustained SIP inflows.

How old this read is: STALE — this read comes from our Finance - Capital Markets sector brief dated 17 Apr 2026, about 5 months ago. The page says so rather than dressing it up, and a fresh sector dive replaces it the day it runs.

What is live in this sector right now

Income Scale & Growth Durability

Centrum Capital Ltd has the highest Income among the 6 Finance - Capital Markets companies compared here, at ₹3,643 crore. National Securities Depository Ltd is next at ₹1,735 crore. National Securities Depository Ltd has the highest Income growth at 24.3%, so level and change sit with different companies. Its Income series carries 15 reported observations across the 20-quarter window.

What the numbers say: Centrum Capital Ltd is the scale leader at ₹3,643 crore, 110% ahead of National Securities Depository Ltd. National Securities Depository Ltd's growth is 24.3% from a ₹1,735 crore base, with 9 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.

LeaderCentrum Capital Ltd · ₹3,643 crore
Gap110% versus #2 · National Securities Depository Ltd
Persistence7/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage6/6 companies · 82 observations

Investor read: Centrum Capital Ltd is the scale benchmark; National Securities Depository Ltd is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.

This conclusion weakens if: Centrum Capital Ltd's growth falls below National Securities Depository Ltd's for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.

For lenders, reported income is used instead of industrial-company sales. Growth is compared year-on-year.

National Securities Depository Ltd is next at ₹388 crore. Prudent Corporate Advisory Services Ltd has the highest Profit growth at 20.6%, so level and change sit with different companies.

Investor read: Central Depository Services (India) Ltd sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current profit growth signal.

Net profit is ranked only where the comparison base is economically meaningful. Loss-to-profit flips are shown but do not win the growth table.

Funding Base & Its Composition

No company in this Finance - Capital Markets comparison reports a funding base figure this section can compare, so the Deposits rank is empty. On Borrowings, Centrum Capital Ltd is highest at ₹16,058 crore, across 6 of 6 companies with a usable reading.

What the numbers say: There is not enough comparable evidence to name a reliable deposits leader.

LeaderNo comparable leader
GapNot enough peers
PersistenceNot enough history
Coverage0/6 companies · 0 observations

Investor read: The current leader sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current borrowings signal.

For banks, debt is operating funding rather than industrial leverage. Deposits and borrowings are therefore shown as funding-base levels; asset quality, funding cost and liquidity determine whether that funding is attractive.

Gross NPA — Leaders & Improvers

No company in this Finance - Capital Markets comparison reports gross NPA on a comparable basis, so there is nothing to rank here — 0 of 6 companies have a usable current reading. The section is shown rather than removed so an unavailable metric is not mistaken for one that was quietly left out. Filings were read through Jun 2026.

Lower gross NPA is better. Improvement means the ratio is falling, so ranks are intentionally inverted.

Withheld from this comparison: Central Depository Services (India) Ltd (CDSL) — its two data sources disagree by up to 16% on reported income across 14 comparable periods, so its derived ratios are withheld; Prudent Corporate Advisory Services Ltd (PRUDENT) — its two data sources disagree by up to 3% on reported income across 14 comparable periods, so its derived ratios are withheld. A figure two sources cannot agree on is not drawn — the gap is a decision, not missing data.

Valuation Against Growth & Quality

Aditya Birla Money Ltd has the lowest P/BV ÷ ROE among the 6 Finance - Capital Markets companies compared here, at 0.1×. Wealth First Portfolio Managers Ltd is next at 0.22×. The same company also holds the lowest P/BV, at 2.28×. 5 of 6 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.

What the numbers say: Aditya Birla Money Ltd has the lowest comparable P/BV ÷ ROE at 0.1×, 54.5% below Wealth First Portfolio Managers Ltd. Only 5 of 6 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so no broad “cheapest stock” conclusion is defensible unless the current multiple, own-history position and growth durability agree.

LeaderAditya Birla Money Ltd · 0.1×
Gap54.5% versus #2 · Wealth First Portfolio Managers Ltd
Persistence0/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage5/6 companies · 40 observations

Investor read: Treat valuation as permission to investigate, never as a standalone reason to buy.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current p/bv signal.

Banks are compared on P/BV and P/BV÷ROE, not PEG. Lower is better only if asset quality and return durability hold; cheap book value with weakening NPAs is not automatically attractive.

What can make this comparison misleading?

This Finance - Capital Markets comparison names 8 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. All 6 companies here report on comparable dates, so no rank carries a stale marker. 3 draw at least one figure from a second feed with too little overlap to cross-check. 2 have second-feed figures withheld because the two sources disagree.

Keep these limits visible

  • A high growth rate can be a low-base artefact. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
  • A high ROE can be manufactured with leverage. Read it beside ROA and asset quality.
  • The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks research priority, not portfolio action. Management quality, catalysts and risks need equally fresh evidence before capital is deployed.
  • An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.
  • Banks and lenders are not forced through operating-margin or ROCE comparisons; missing lender-specific fields remain visibly missing.
  • 3 companies draw at least one figure from a second data feed with too little overlapping history to cross-check against the primary source; they are marked unverified wherever those figures appear.
  • 2 companies are missing from the second-feed metrics by decision, not by absence: the two sources disagree, so nothing from the second is drawn. Read those rows as narrower evidence, never as a weaker business.
  • Thin comparisons: Funding base, Asset quality have fewer than three usable current readings.
15 · evidence and freshness

How was this comparison built?

This comparison is built from the reported filings of 6 Finance - Capital Markets companies, normalized to a common ₹ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each. Fundamentals run through Jun 2026 and market data through 2026-09-11. A second data feed fills gaps only after identity and scale reconciliation, and missing observations are never interpolated.

FundamentalsThrough Jun 2026 · up to 20 quarters per company
Market dataThrough 2026-09-11 · weekly price and relative-strength history
Derived metricsGrowth, changes and P/BV÷ROE are calculated only when their inputs are comparable.
Score confidenceMissing and stale evidence reduces confidence and pulls the 0–100 research-priority score toward neutral.
Source standing0 cross-checked · 4 unverified · 2 withheld, of 6 graded companies.
How a second data feed is admitted, and what happens when it disagrees

A second feed is read only after its reported income is matched against the primary source on at least three overlapping periods. Where the two agree the figures fill silently. Where there is too little shared history to compare, the figures are still drawn — they are the only evidence there is — and marked ⚠ unverified everywhere they appear. Where the two are known to disagree, nothing from the second feed is drawn and the affected company is named under the chart it is missing from.

Is this investment advice?

No. Every figure here is a deterministic calculation from reported company filings and market data, published for research. It contains no recommendation to buy or sell any security, does not account for your circumstances, and is not a substitute for advice from a licensed adviser.
