Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences Ltd

KIMS
Hospitals

Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences Ltd's price has outrun its earnings. +6.4% in a year against EPS −37.3% — the market is paying now for delivery later.

The sharpest disagreement: the price moved +6.4% in a year while annual EPS moved −37.3% — the difference is re-rating, and re-rating has to be repaid with earnings.

The price is in a confirmed uptrend (12 weeks in) while the P/E sits at the 100th percentile of its own 5-year range. Underneath, the last four quarters read deteriorating — profit −68.9% year on year, and 163% of the last 3 years' profit arrived as cash. What settles it: whether earnings grow into a price that has already moved.

Withheld from this page: Part of this page is deliberately not drawn: its two data sources disagree by up to 27% on reported income across 14 comparable periods, so nothing from the second source is placed here — the PEG ratio and its quarterly curve, the quarterly return curves, the annual return-on-invested-capital overlay, the total-debt and debt-to-equity series and the F-score and the return-on-invested-capital reading are absent for that reason. A figure two sources cannot agree on is not drawn — the gap is a decision, not missing data. The quarterly history also begins where the primary source begins: 6 earlier quarters the second source carries are not spliced in front of it. Extending a reported profit series is stricter than showing a ratio chart — it needs a source that has been checked.
01 · Price story

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.

Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences Ltd trades at ₹805, in a confirmed uptrend and 12 weeks into that stage. That is +11.8% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 83% of a 52-week range of ₹582 to ₹851. On relative strength it is currently behind the NIFTY 500 on a trailing-13-week view (1 week and counting).

Today the stock is in a confirmed uptrend — week 12 of stage 2, confirmed. At ₹805 it trades +11.8% versus its 200-day average and sits at 83% of its 52-week range (₹582–₹851).

Jul 26: ₹805 Weekly closing price (₹) with 50- and 200-day averages; shaded bands mark the price stage (grey base, green advance, amber top, red decline). 3-year window.

Jul 21Jul 26

Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 5.1 years the stock moved +295% while the NIFTY 500 moved +72% — ahead of the index over the full window. Recent form: on a trailing-13-week view the stock is currently behind (1 week and counting; last ahead the week of 2026-07-24) — 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.

02 · Valuation

Valuation P/E is the price of ₹1 of annual profit: how many rupees the market pays for each rupee the company earns in a year.

Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences Ltd trades at 136.0× P/E, about the priciest it has ever traded. Its long-run median P/E is 49.6×, measured across 5.1 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/E of 136.0× is about the priciest it has ever traded, against a long-run median of 49.6× measured over 5.1 years of weekly readings. This is a comparison against the stock's own history — not a claim about what it is worth.

100th percentile of 5y

🚨 Why the multiple sits where it does: over the past year annual EPS moved −37.3% against a +6.4% price move — the price outran earnings, pushing the multiple UP its own range.

The price move, decomposed: over 5y, of the +27.3%/yr price move, ~+3.5%/yr came from earnings growth and ~+23.8 pp from the multiple (expanding). The split is the honest approximate (price return minus earnings 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 earnings line underneath it, not the multiple.

The PEG ratio and its quarterly curve, which only the second data source carries, are not drawn on this page: its two data sources disagree by up to 27% 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.

03 · Stage: Mixed

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).

Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences Ltd reads as mixed on its fundamental arc. Mixed — no clean majority across the growth curves, ROCE slipping at 9.0% — the per-curve reads carry the story. The read is built from 10 quarters across 3 curves, on partial evidence.

Growth, year by year: revenue +28.7% in FY26, profit −41.7% Year-over-year growth per fiscal year, %: revenue (left axis); net profit and EPS (right axis — profit growth swings far wider). Zero line drawn.

Three growth curves, twelve quarters Year-on-year growth of trailing-twelve-month revenue (left axis), profit and EPS (right axis — they swing far wider), % at each quarter-end. Where the trailing-twelve-month history is short, the curve falls back to single-quarter year-on-year growth — noisier, and the classifier smooths and caps base-effect spikes before reading. A missing point means that reading is not held for the quarter.

ROCE Annual readings — the quarterly balance-sheet pieces this curve needs are not held for this stock, so the returns read moves once a year and carries less weight in the call.

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

One or more growth curves carry a base-effect spike — a large year-on-year move off a near-zero or loss-making comparable quarter. Those spikes are capped before the classifier reads the trajectory, and shown pinned on the chart, so a single distorted quarter does not drive the stage call.

Return readings here are annual, not quarterly — read as level and direction only; they can confirm the growth curves but never drive the stage on their own.

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.

04 · 4-Factor Sector Score

4-Factor Sector Score

39.4/100 — rank 15 of 19 in Hospitals · 78% evidence confidence

Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences Ltd scores 39.4 out of 100 against the 19 companies it is compared with in Hospitals, ranking 15. Price leads the evidence: RS versus the benchmark is 12%, but earnings trajectory is weak. Wait for revenue and profit confirmation.

The four contributions add to the total exactly: 10.4 + 9.2 + 5.5 + 14.3 = 39.4. 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 profit growth turns negative or margin improvement reverses while sector-relative strength deteriorates.

05 · Revenue

Revenue Revenue is the top line: everything the company billed its customers in the period.

Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences Ltd reported ₹1,075 Cr of revenue in the Mar 26 quarter, +34.9% year on year. That is the 10th straight quarter of year-on-year growth. Over 10 years it has compounded at 22.5% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹3,905 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹3,906 Cr.

FY26 revenue came in at ₹3,905 Cr (+28.7% on the year), capping 10 years at 22.5% compound. The latest quarter (Mar 26) printed ₹1,075 Cr, +34.9% year on year — the 10th consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth.

Pace check: the last four quarters averaged +28.6% growth against the decade's 22.5% — the current year is running faster than its own long-run rate.

Acceleration check: trailing-twelve-month revenue grew +28.7% over the last 4 quarters against +25.0%/yr over the last 8 — accelerating; TTM profit −41.5% vs −15.3%/yr — rolling over.

06 · Operating margin

Operating margin Operating margin is what is left of every ₹100 of sales after running the business, before interest and tax. It is the cleanest read on pricing power and cost control.

Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences Ltd's operating margin is 19.0% in the Mar 26 quarter, −6.0 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 11 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 9.0% to 32.0%. The current quarter sits inside that band.

The latest quarter's operating margin is 19.0%, −6.0 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 11 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 9.0%–32.0%.

🚨 Why the margin moved: operating margin went −5.6 pp year on year while gross margin went −0.7 pp — the loss came mostly below the gross line: operating leverage, with costs spread over a bigger revenue base.

07 · Net profit

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

Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences Ltd earned ₹33.0 Cr of net profit in the Mar 26 quarter, −68.9% year on year. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹242 Cr. The 10-year compound rate is 24.1%. That is 3.1% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹106 Cr.

Mar 26 profit was ₹33.0 Cr, −68.9% year on year. On the full year, FY26 printed ₹242 Cr (−41.7%), and the 10-year compound rate is 24.1%.

🚨 Why profit moved: revenue contributed +34.9% and the margin −6.0 pp — the quarter was revenue-led despite a thinner margin.

Pace comparison, last four quarters: profit −40.9% vs revenue +28.6%. Profit is growing slower than sales — costs are eating the growth before it reaches the bottom line.

08 · Cash flow — the router

Cash flow — the router The P&L says what was earned; the cash-flow statement says what actually arrived. Operating cash flow (CFO) against profit is the cleanest lie detector in the accounts.

Over the last 3 fiscal years 163% of Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences Ltd's reported profit arrived as operating cash — the cash follows the profit. In FY26 that was ₹511 Cr of operating cash against ₹242 Cr of profit. After ₹2,037 Cr of capital spending, ₹−1,526 Cr was left as free cash.

FY26: operating cash of ₹511 Cr against reported profit of ₹242 Cr, leaving free cash of ₹−1,526 Cr after ₹2,037 Cr of capital spending. Across the last 3 fiscal years the conversion rate is 163% of profit.

Cash-flow readings here are annual — that is the resolution our series carries, so this section moves once a year.

FY26: CFO ₹511 Cr vs profit ₹242 Cr Operating cash flow and net profit by fiscal year, ₹ Cr; the line is free cash flow (CFO minus capital spending). 11-year window, annual resolution.

316%257%197%137%78%%211%FY16FY21FY26

Why conversion sits at 163%: the cash cycle stretched 56 days between FY21 and FY26 — more of each rupee of profit waits inside the cycle before arriving.

Router verdict: the bigger cash user is investment — capital spending ran 7.7× depreciation over three years, so the next section's job is to check what that build-out is buying.

09 · Where the cash goes

Where the cash goes Working capital is the cash tied up between paying suppliers and getting paid: debtor days (customers owe), inventory days (stock waits), and the cash conversion cycle (the whole loop, in days of sales).

Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences Ltd's cash conversion cycle runs −50 days in FY26, up from −106 days in FY21. Capital spending ran ₹4,680 Cr over the last 3 years. At FY26 sales of ₹3,905 Cr each day of that cycle holds about ₹10.7 Cr, so roughly ₹−535 Cr sits inside the business at any moment.

FY26: debtors at 52 days, inventory at 44 days — roughly 1.4 months of stock waiting to sell; that is where the cash sits while it waits — for a full cycle of −50 days, looser than FY21's −106.

The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0; stock waits 44 days to sell; customers pay about 52 days after that; and suppliers themselves are paid at 146 days — netting out to the −50-day cycle.

In money terms: at FY26 sales of ₹3,905 Cr, each day of the cycle holds about ₹10.7 Cr — so the −50-day loop keeps roughly ₹−535 Cr sitting inside the business at any moment.

FY26: a −50-day cash cycle Debtor days, inventory days, payable days and the cash conversion cycle by fiscal year. 11-year window.

On the investment side: capital spending of ₹4,680 Cr over the last 3 fiscal years against ₹607 Cr of depreciation — the company is building well ahead of wear-and-tear. Capital work-in-progress stands at ₹606 Cr (FY26) — capacity paid for but not yet earning.

FY26: capex ₹2,037 Cr, work-in-progress ₹606 Cr Capital spending per fiscal year, ₹ Cr (bars); capital work-in-progress, ₹ Cr (line). Quarterly capital-spending history is not held for India — annual is the honest resolution.

The synthesis: the cash is going into capacity, not disappearing into the cycle — the question becomes whether the new capacity earns.

10 · Return on capital

Return on capital Return on capital employed (ROCE) is the profit the whole business earns on all the money in it — equity and debt together. It is the single best test of whether growth creates value or just size.

Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences Ltd earns a ROCE of 9% in FY26. That is up from a trough of 5% in FY19. A return-on-invested-capital spread against the cost of capital is not computable from what is held here. The wiring behind it is 6.2% net margin on 0.50× asset turns.

FY26 ROCE is 9%, recovered from a FY19 trough of 5% — the full ladder below shows the fall and the climb, undoctored.

Why the return is what it is — the wiring (FY26): 6.2% net margin × 0.50× asset turns × 3.45× balance-sheet leverage ≈ 10.7% on equity. Margin does its share; leverage is a meaningful part of the equation.

The quarterly return curves and the return-on-invested-capital overlay, which only the second data source carries, are not drawn on this page: its two data sources disagree by up to 27% 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.

11 · Debt

Debt Debt-to-equity says how much of the business is funded by borrowings; interest cover says how many times operating profit pays the interest bill. Low and high, respectively, is the safe corner.

Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences Ltd carries ₹4,253 Cr of borrowings against ₹2,247 Cr of equity in FY26, a debt-to-equity of 1.89. Operating profit covers the interest bill 4×. Over 5 years borrowings went from ₹316 Cr to ₹4,253 Cr. Capital spending ran ₹4,680 Cr across the last 3 of those years.

FY26: borrowings of ₹4,253 Cr against equity of ₹2,247 Cr — a debt-to-equity of 1.89. Operating profit covers the interest bill 4×. Over 5 years borrowings went from ₹316 Cr to ₹4,253 Cr while capital spending ran ₹4,680 Cr in just the last 3 — part of the build-out is riding on borrowed money.

12 · Ownership

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 6.3 points of Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences Ltd over 8 quarters, the biggest move on the register. That takes promoters to 32.5% of the company. Foreign institutions moved −3.1 points over the same window, to 14.8%. The register is read on the four disclosed classes only; nothing is inferred between filings.

The register over the last two years — Promoters: −6.3 points over 8 quarters to 32.5%; Foreign institutions: −3.1 points over 8 quarters to 14.8%; Domestic institutions: +2.3 points over 8 quarters to 34.4%.

Why the register moved: rotation — foreign institutions −3.1 points against domestic institutions +2.3 points over 8 quarters, with promoters −6.3 points — one class of institutions handing the register to the other, not a verdict change by the people closest to the numbers.

Fiscal-year ends: promoters −4.7 pts from Mar 24 to Mar 26 Shareholding at each fiscal-year end (March quarter), % of the company. 3 year-ends held.

13 · Safety line

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.

Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences Ltd: the Z-score is not available for this stock, so we say so rather than invent one. It is a distance-to-distress estimate from the balance sheet, not a forecast of failure. The debt, cash-flow and return sections above carry the balance-sheet evidence this page does hold, and each of them states its own reporting date.

The safety line in one sentence: the Z-score is not available for this stock, so we say so rather than invent one.

Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. 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.

The latest quarter ran 19.0%. Profitability versus a company's own long band is the cleanest cycle clock this page holds — as of 31 July 2026.

What could break the Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences Ltd story?

The sharpest disagreement: the price moved +6.4% in a year while annual EPS moved −37.3% — the difference is re-rating, and re-rating has to be repaid with earnings. Mechanically, two Friday closes in a row below the 200-day average would end the price trend — that is the exit rule this page tracks — as of 31 July 2026.

Is Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences Ltd a stock worth studying right now?

This is not investment advice. The machine read: Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences Ltd's price has outrun its earnings. +6.4% in a year against EPS −37.3% — the market is paying now for delivery later. The sharpest open question: whether earnings grow into a price that has already moved.
