Choice International Ltd

Price story Before the numbers, the tape. A stock price moves through four repeating seasons: a flat base (stage 1), an advance (2), a top (3), a decline (4). Where the price sits in that cycle frames everything below.

Choice International Ltd trades at ₹759, in a confirmed uptrend and 8 weeks into that stage. That is +2.0% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 61% of a 52-week range of ₹616 to ₹851. On relative strength it has been ahead of the NIFTY 500 on a trailing-13-week view for 13 straight weeks.

Today the stock is in a confirmed uptrend — week 8 of stage 2, confirmed. At ₹759 it trades +2.0% versus its 200-day average and sits at 61% of its 52-week range (₹616–₹851).

Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 10.5 years the stock moved +7,436% while the NIFTY 500 moved +267% — ahead of the index over the full window. Recent form: on a trailing-13-week view the stock has been ahead for 13 straight weeks — the ribbon below is that same metric, week by week.

What would end the trend, mechanically: two Friday closes in a row below the 200-day line. That is the exit rule — no debates.

Valuation For a bank we price the book, not the earnings: P/BV is what the market pays for each ₹1 of the bank's net worth. A bank below 1× book is priced below the value of what it owns, net of what it owes.

Choice International Ltd trades at 10.1× P/BV, at the pricey end of its own range (79th percentile). Its long-run median P/BV is 1.9×, measured across 10.5 years of weekly readings. This places the multiple against the stock’s own record, and says nothing about what the business is worth.

Today's P/BV of 10.1× is at the pricey end of its own range (79th percentile), against a long-run median of 1.9× measured over 10.5 years of weekly readings. This is a comparison against the stock's own history — not a claim about what it is worth.

Why the multiple sits where it does: over the past year book value grew while the price moved −7.3% — the price ran ahead of the book, pushing the multiple up its own range.

The price move, decomposed: over 5y, of the +91.7%/yr price move, ~+27.2%/yr came from book-value growth and ~+64.5 pp from the multiple (expanding); over 10y, of the +52.6%/yr price move, ~+19.9%/yr came from book-value growth and ~+32.7 pp from the multiple (expanding). The split is the honest approximate (price return minus book-value growth); it makes the rally itself visible instead of hiding it behind the percentile.

Put together: the multiple is full against its own past, so the story rests on the book-value line underneath it, not the multiple.

A quarterly PEG curve, which only the second data source carries, is not drawn on this page: its two data sources disagree by up to 11% on reported income across 14 comparable periods. A figure two sources cannot agree on is not drawn — the gap is a decision, not missing data.

What the price assumes This reading works the multiple backwards. It asks one question: what yearly rate of profit growth is a buyer at the market price already paying for? The number is the growth rate that makes eleven years of profit — six years growing, then five fading — add up to that day's market price, once each year is discounted at 11% a year.

Solved at its 13 June 2026 price, Choice International Ltd was paying for profit growth of about 30.1% a year. Profit itself has compounded 50.5% a year over the past 10 years. Today the market pays 10.1× P/BV, the 79th percentile of its own 11-year range.

What the two numbers say together. The multiple is full against its own past, and the growth the price is paying for is below what this company has actually delivered.

How to hold this number: it is a reading of one day's price, taken on 13 June 2026, not a running figure — every other number on this page, the multiple included, is read off the live quote as of 11 September 2026. A higher price is paying for more growth and a lower price for less, so it moves whenever the price does, and this page does not restate it between measurements.

Stage: Mixed Every business sits somewhere on a fundamental arc, and this page names the spot before anything else. The last twelve quarters of revenue, profit and EPS growth — plus the return the business earns on its capital — are read as curves: Deteriorating (the curves are falling), Turning around (a trough has just formed and the last few quarters lift off it), Improving (the climb off the trough is sustained), Consistent (steadily positive with healthy returns), Topping out (still high but decelerating from the peak). When the curves genuinely disagree the read is Mixed; too little history is No read. CAGR (compound annual growth rate) is the smooth yearly pace that turns the starting value into the latest one — the fairest way to compare growth across different time spans. Read the columns together: if the 1-year number towers over the 10-year, recent growth is running hotter than the long-run trend. A dash means that window is not held, or the base year was a loss (where a growth rate is not meaningful).

Choice International Ltd reads as mixed on its fundamental arc. Mixed — the growth curves are steadily positive, but no return curve is held to confirm the Consistent bar. The read is built from 8 quarters across 3 curves, on partial evidence.

Why it matters: when the curves disagree, the per-curve reads above matter more than any single verdict.

A partial read: at least one curve is short, or the returns curve is not the computed quarterly series — hold the stage word a little more loosely.

4-Factor Sector Score

53.2/100 — rank 6 of 16 in Finance - Capital Markets - Brokers · 61% evidence confidence

Choice International Ltd scores 53.2 out of 100 against the 16 companies it is compared with in Finance - Capital Markets - Brokers, ranking 6. Balanced evidence: keep at normal research priority and require another comparable period before raising conviction.

The four contributions add to the total exactly: 24.6 + 14.5 + 3.6 + 10.5 = 53.2. This is the SAME number shown on the sector comparison — it is computed once, for the whole peer set, and read here.

What would change it: The read weakens if ROA rolls over or gross NPA rises while sector-relative strength deteriorates.

Revenue For a bank, revenue is everything the franchise earns — interest on the loan book plus fee and other income.

Choice International Ltd reported ₹310 Cr of income in the Jun 26 quarter, +31.9% year on year. That is the 11th straight quarter of year-on-year growth. Over 10 years it has compounded at 19.6% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹1,119 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹1,194 Cr.

FY26 revenue came in at ₹1,119 Cr (+21.5% on the year), capping 10 years at 19.6% compound. The latest quarter (Jun 26) printed ₹310 Cr, +31.9% year on year — the 11th consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth.

Pace check: the last four quarters averaged +27.3% growth against the decade's 19.6% — the current year is running faster than its own long-run rate.

Acceleration check: trailing-twelve-month revenue grew +26.5% over the last 4 quarters against +21.1%/yr over the last 8 — accelerating; TTM profit +40.2% vs +33.4%/yr — accelerating.

Net margin Net margin — what the bank keeps of every ₹100 of revenue after every cost, provision and tax. It is the cleanest single margin we can read for a lender.

Choice International Ltd's net margin is 19.7% in the Jun 26 quarter, −0.7 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. That is the widest this company has ever printed on a full-year basis. Across 13 fiscal years the net margin has ranged 2.1% to 21.3%. The current quarter sits inside that band.

The latest quarter's net margin is 19.7%, −0.7 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 13 fiscal years the net margin has ranged 2.1%–21.3%, and FY26's 21.3% is the top of that band — a record year.

Why: the numbers show the net margin move clearly, but the cost lines behind it sit below what we hold — so we state the move without inventing its driver.

Worth repeating from the valuation section: cheap against its own history on record margins is not the same thing as cheap — a record margin flatters every ratio built on top of it.

Net profit Net profit is what survives every cost, interest and tax — the number EPS, dividends and book value all grow from.

Choice International Ltd earned ₹61.0 Cr of net profit in the Jun 26 quarter, +27.1% year on year. It is the 6th consecutive quarter of growth. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹238 Cr. The 10-year compound rate is 50.5%. That is 19.7% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹48.0 Cr.

Jun 26 profit was ₹61.0 Cr, +27.1% year on year — the 6th consecutive quarter of growth. On the full year, FY26 printed ₹238 Cr (+46.0%), and the 10-year compound rate is 50.5%.

Why profit moved: revenue contributed +31.9% and the margin −0.7 pp — the quarter was revenue-led, with the margin roughly flat.

Pace comparison, last four quarters: profit +46.9% vs revenue +27.3%. Profit is growing faster than sales — fixed costs are being spread over a bigger base, and each extra rupee of revenue drops more to the bottom line.

Asset quality — the ladder Gross NPA is the slice of the loan book where repayments have stopped. Net NPA is what remains after the money already set aside against those loans. Falling is healing; rising is damage arriving.

Loan-book quality history is not available for Choice International Ltd, so this section names the gap rather than estimating a ratio. No gross or net non-performing-asset series is filed in a form this page can read, and none is inferred from the profit line. The income, margin and return sections above carry the evidence this business does report.

We do not hold quarterly loan-book quality numbers for this bank, so this section states that plainly rather than working around it.

Why: loan-book quality is the engine room of a bank, and its drivers — slippages, recoveries, provisioning — sit below what we hold for this name; the sections around it carry the reads we can stand behind.

The loan book We read the loan book through revenue — when the book grows, revenue grows with it. It is a rough proxy, and we say so: rate moves and fee swings can shift it a few points in any one year.

Choice International Ltd's revenue grew +21.5% in FY26 to ₹1,119 Cr, so the book is growing. The latest quarter ran +31.9% year on year. The net margin on that income is 19.7%, −0.7 percentage points against a year ago. Interest income is a proxy for the book; rate moves can shift it a few points in any one year.

FY26 revenue was ₹1,119 Cr, +21.5% on the year, and the latest quarter ran +31.9% year on year. The net margin on that revenue is 19.7% this quarter (−0.7 pp YoY) — growth with a narrowing margin on it.

The synthesis: a lender compounds when the book grows while the margin holds and the loan book stays clean — gross NPA is the loan-quality read we carry here.

Returns on equity and assets Two numbers usually rate a lender: ROE — what it earns on shareholder money — and ROA — what it earns on everything it deploys.

A clean annual return-on-equity ladder is not held for Choice International Ltd. For an insurer especially the standard bank ratios are not the right lens, so this page does not force them onto the filings rather than estimating a series it cannot support. The revenue, margin and ownership sections above and below are the reads this page stands behind.

We do not hold a clean annual return-on-equity series for Choice International Ltd — for an insurer especially, the standard bank ratios are not the right lens, so this page does not force them. The revenue, margin and ownership sections above and below are the reads we stand behind.

The quarterly return-on-equity and return-on-assets curves, which only the second data source carries, are not drawn on this page: its two data sources disagree by up to 11% on reported income across 14 comparable periods. A figure two sources cannot agree on is not drawn — the gap is a decision, not missing data.

Debt

For a bank, borrowings are raw material, not a warning sign — solvency is read through the returns and the loan book. A manufacturer’s debt is a claim against its profits, so the debt-to-equity lens that works everywhere else misleads on a lender and is not applied here.

A manufacturer’s debt is a claim against its profits; a bank’s borrowings are its inventory — money taken in to be lent out. The debt lens that works everywhere else misleads here, so this page does not apply it. The solvency questions for a bank — is the loan book sound, is the equity earning — are read through the loan-book and returns sections above.

Ownership Who owns the stock, quarter by quarter: promoters (the controlling owners), foreign and domestic institutions, and the public. Steady accumulation by people close to the numbers is a signal; a quiet register is also an answer.

Promoters cut 4.6 points of Choice International Ltd over 8 quarters, the biggest move on the register. That takes promoters to 53.7% of the company. Foreign institutions moved −2.1 points over the same window, to 10.1%. The register is read on the four disclosed classes only; nothing is inferred between filings.

The register over the last two years — Promoters: −4.6 points over 8 quarters to 53.7%; Foreign institutions: −2.1 points over 8 quarters to 10.1%; Domestic institutions: +0.2 points over 8 quarters to 0.3%.

🚨 Why the register moved: promoters drove it (−4.6 points), alongside foreign institutions (−2.1 points) — distribution into the market’s bid.

Safety line The Z-score estimates how far a company sits from balance-sheet distress — above roughly 3 is safe, below roughly 1.8 is the danger zone. It was built for manufacturers, so it is not applied to banks and lenders.

Choice International Ltd: the Z-score is omitted — it was built for manufacturers, not banks, and applying it here would be theatre. The Z-score was built for manufacturers and is not applied to banks and lenders, so solvency here is read from the capital and asset-quality lines instead.

The safety line in one sentence: the Z-score is omitted — it was built for manufacturers, not banks, and applying it here would be theatre.
