One of those years shows a negative figure because profit itself was negative. (From the NSE corporate-actions record, read 4 November 2026.) ## Which stock lists is Novartis India on? Novartis India is on one of our India lists: Pharma stocks. [Pharma stocks Market value (₹ crore): 4241.472642401323](https://www.sectoralpha.in/sectors/pharma-stocks-india) ## Is Novartis India profitable? Novartis India Ltd earned ₹32.0 Cr of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, +14.3% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹93.0 Cr. Over 10 years profit has grown −7.3% a year on average. That is 30.8% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹28.0 Cr. For the full year, FY26 profit was ₹93.0 Cr (−7.9% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +18.2% on a year earlier and the margin moved +3.0 percentage points. Most of the change came from keeping more of each sale. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed −3.9% and revenue +5.6%. Profit is growing slower than sales: rising costs are taking part of the growth. ## How much revenue does Novartis India make, and is it growing? Novartis India Ltd reported ₹104 Cr of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +18.2% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 2nd quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 10 years it has grown −6.5% a year on average. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹354 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹371 Cr. FY26 revenue was ₹354 Cr, −0.6% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +5.6% on average, against −6.5% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing faster than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +5.4%, against +4.9% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising); profit over the last 12 months grew −4.9%, against +2.7% a year (rolling over). ## How much of every ₹100 of sales does Novartis India keep? Novartis India Ltd's operating margin was 34.0% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 3.0 percentage points higher than the same quarter a year ago. Its latest full-year margin is the highest it has ever reported. Across 13 years it has been between −1.1% and 27.0%. The latest quarter is above every full year in that period. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +2.5 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −0.2 points. So the gain came mostly from costs below the gross margin, such as staff and overheads, measured against sales. When margins are at a record, every ratio built on profit looks better than usual, so watch whether they hold. ## Is Novartis India's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 84% of Novartis India Ltd's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY26 it brought in ₹47.0 Cr of operating cash against ₹93.0 Cr of profit. After ₹0.0 Cr of spending on assets, ₹47.0 Cr was left over as free cash. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why 84% of profit came in as cash: the cash cycle got 17 days longer between FY21 and FY26, so more of each rupee of profit waits in the business before it arrives. What to look at next: it has been selling more assets than it buys. The next section shows those figures. ## Where does Novartis India's cash go? Novartis India Ltd's cash cycle, the days between paying suppliers and getting paid by customers, was 36 days in FY26, up from 19 days in FY21. Over the last 3 years it sold more assets than it bought, by ₹9.0 Cr. Customers take 38 days to pay, and stock sits for 98 days on average. At FY26 sales of ₹354 Cr, each day of that cycle ties up about ₹1.0 Cr, so roughly ₹35.0 Cr is tied up in the business at any time. FY26: customers took 38 days to pay and stock sat for 98 days, about 3.2 months of sales sitting as stock, for a full cycle of 36 days, longer than FY21's 19. The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0. Stock sits for 98 days. Customers pay about 38 days after that. Suppliers are paid at 101 days. Together that makes the 36-day cycle. Over the last 3 years, money from selling assets was ₹9.0 Cr more than it spent on new ones. Work still in progress is ₹0.0 Cr (FY26). In short: assets are being sold, not built, so this cash is not going into new capacity. ## What is Novartis India's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Novartis India Ltd's P/E is 43.5×, near the high end of its own history: higher than 75% of past readings. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 30.7×, over 11 years of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved −7.7% while the price moved +98.4%. The price did better than earnings, which pushed the multiple up within its own range. Where the price move came from: over 5 years the price moved +16.5% a year; about +33.8% a year came from earnings growth and about −17.3 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying less); over 10 years the price moved +9.9% a year; about −1.0% a year came from earnings growth and about +10.9 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying more). The split is approximate (price return minus earnings growth). It shows how much of the move came from the market paying a different multiple. In short: the multiple is high against its own past, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Novartis India business getting better or worse? Novartis India Ltd's business is slowing from a peak. Profit and EPS growth have slowed sharply (profit growth from +45.3% at its peak to −4.9% now), while ROCE is still 16.7%. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. Why it matters: slowing from a peak is where good stories often end quietly. ## How much does Novartis India earn on its capital? Novartis India Ltd earned a ROCE of 16% in FY26. That is up from a low of 5% in FY20. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 23.7 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a 26.3% net margin and 0.36× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY26): a 26.3% net margin × 0.36× asset turnover × 1.20× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 11.4% on equity. The margin does most of the work; borrowing plays a small part, so this return is earned, not borrowed. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: −11.7% − 12.0% = −23.7 percentage points. The 12.0% is a standard assumption for the cost of capital in India, not an estimate for this company. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. Negative: growth at these returns loses value until returns improve. The −11.7% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY26 at 42.9%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does Novartis India have too much debt? Novartis India Ltd has total debt of ₹3.0 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹818 Cr as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.00× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.03 in FY22 to 0.00 in FY26. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money. ## What is the Novartis India shareholding pattern? Foreign institutions raised their stake in Novartis India Ltd by 1.0 percentage points over 8 quarters, the biggest change among its owners. Foreign institutions now own 1.2% of the company. Domestic institutions moved +1.0 points over the same period, to 1.5%. This uses the four owner groups that companies report every quarter; nothing is guessed between filings. Over the last two years: Foreign institutions: +1.0 points over 8 quarters, to 1.2%; Domestic institutions: +1.0 points over 8 quarters, to 1.5%; Promoters: +0.0 points over 8 quarters, to 70.7%. Why the owners changed: foreign institutions drove it (+1.0 points), together with domestic institutions (+1.0 points). They raised their stake step by step. ## How far is Novartis India from balance-sheet trouble? For Novartis India Ltd, the Z-score is not available, so we say so rather than guess one. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. The debt, cash-flow and return sections show the balance-sheet figures we do have, each with its own date. ## How does Novartis India rank in its industry? 45.6 out of 100, rank 7 of 8 in Pharma - MNC bulk Drugs, with 96% of the evidence available. Novartis India Ltd scores 45.6 out of 100 against the 8 companies it is compared with in Pharma - MNC bulk Drugs, ranking 7. Relative strength against the index is 41.9%, and revenue and profit growth are weak. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 15.2 + 8.1 + 5.6 + 16.7 = 45.6. This is the same number shown on the industry page; it is worked out once for the whole group and read here. What would change it: The score would fall if profit growth turns negative or margins stop improving while the share price lags its sector. ## Which companies is Novartis India compared with?

Missing figures are not scored as bad. They lower the confidence and pull the final score toward the middle. Relative strength counts only when the company has a reading for this week; with no reading, that factor is left out and its 20 points are shared across the other three in proportion. 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 path the industry 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 growing or shrinking. It describes where the share price stands, not the direction of earnings, and it is not a recommendation; it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read. The figures in this ranking come from the industry comparison: results through the Sep 2026 quarter, and the P/E at that quarter's end. The sections above use the latest weekly price, so a P/E or return there can differ a little from the one here. The stage words in this ranking (such as losing its lead or breaking out) describe the lead over the index, not the price phase in the price section.
