Prudent Corporate Advisory Services Ltd
PRUDENTPrudent Corporate Advisory Services Ltd's three tracks disagree. Price, valuation and the earnings engine each tell a different story — the next quarter or two settles it.
The sharpest disagreement: Promoters moved −3.1 points over 8 quarters while the operating story went the other way — someone close to the numbers is not convinced.
The price is in a confirmed uptrend (11 weeks in) while the P/BV sits at the 57th percentile of its own 4-year range. Underneath, the last four quarters read improving — profit +44.2% year on year, with the the net margin at 21.6%. What settles it: whether the register turns back in the story’s favour.
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.
Prudent Corporate Advisory Services Ltd trades at ₹3,292, in a confirmed uptrend and 11 weeks into that stage. That is +22.1% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 100% of a 52-week range of ₹2,215 to ₹3,292. On relative strength it has been ahead of the NIFTY 500 on a trailing-13-week view for 23 straight weeks.
Today the stock is in a confirmed uptrend — week 11 of stage 2, confirmed. At ₹3,292 it trades +22.1% versus its 200-day average and sits at 100% of its 52-week range (₹2,215–₹3,292).
Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 4.2 years the stock moved +486% while the NIFTY 500 moved +73% — ahead of the index over the full window. Recent form: on a trailing-13-week view the stock has been ahead for 23 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.
Prudent Corporate Advisory Services Ltd trades at 15.5× P/BV, mid-range by its own standards (57th percentile). Its long-run median P/BV is 14.5×, measured across 3.8 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 15.5× is mid-range by its own standards (57th percentile), against a long-run median of 14.5× measured over 3.8 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 +23.3% — price and book moved together, holding the multiple in its range.
The price move, decomposed: over 3y, of the +43.0%/yr price move, ~+36.2%/yr came from book-value growth and ~+6.8 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 unremarkable against its own past, so the story rests on the book-value 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 3.0% 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.
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).
Prudent Corporate Advisory Services 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
63.5/100 — rank 1 of 6 in Finance - Capital Markets · 61% evidence confidence
Prudent Corporate Advisory Services Ltd scores 63.5 out of 100 against the 6 companies it is compared with in Finance - Capital Markets, ranking 1. Strong business, demanding price: keep it on the quality list, but require either earnings upgrades or valuation compression.
The four contributions add to the total exactly: 22.7 + 16.5 + 5.8 + 18.5 = 63.5. 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.
Prudent Corporate Advisory Services Ltd reported ₹348 Cr of income in the Jun 26 quarter, +18.4% year on year. That is the 11th straight quarter of year-on-year growth. Over 7 years it has compounded at 29.0% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹1,341 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹1,372 Cr.
FY26 revenue came in at ₹1,341 Cr (+18.4% on the year), capping 7 years at 29.0% compound. The latest quarter (Jun 26) printed ₹348 Cr, +18.4% year on year — the 11th consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth.
Pace check: the last four quarters averaged +19.6% growth against the decade's 29.0% — the current year is running slower than its own long-run rate.
Acceleration check: trailing-twelve-month revenue grew +19.5% over the last 4 quarters against +24.2%/yr over the last 8 — rolling over; TTM profit +20.6% vs +26.0%/yr — rolling over.
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.
Prudent Corporate Advisory Services Ltd's net margin is 21.6% in the Jun 26 quarter, +3.9 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 8 fiscal years the net margin has ranged 9.3% to 19.0%. The current quarter is running above every full year in that window.
The latest quarter's net margin is 21.6%, +3.9 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 8 fiscal years the net margin has ranged 9.3%–19.0%.
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.
Net profit Net profit is what survives every cost, interest and tax — the number EPS, dividends and book value all grow from.
Prudent Corporate Advisory Services Ltd earned ₹75.0 Cr of net profit in the Jun 26 quarter, +44.2% year on year. It is the 11th consecutive quarter of growth. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹222 Cr. The 7-year compound rate is 40.1%. That is 21.6% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹52.0 Cr.
Jun 26 profit was ₹75.0 Cr, +44.2% year on year — the 11th consecutive quarter of growth. On the full year, FY26 printed ₹222 Cr (+13.3%), and the 7-year compound rate is 40.1%.
Why profit moved: revenue contributed +18.4% and the margin +3.9 pp — the quarter was margin-led: most of the profit growth came from keeping more of each sale.
Pace comparison, last four quarters: profit +20.6% vs revenue +19.6%. Profit and revenue are moving roughly in step.
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 Prudent Corporate Advisory Services 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.
Prudent Corporate Advisory Services Ltd's revenue grew +18.4% in FY26 to ₹1,341 Cr, so the book is growing. The latest quarter ran +18.4% year on year. The net margin on that income is 21.6%, +3.9 percentage points against a year ago.
FY26 revenue was ₹1,341 Cr, +18.4% on the year, and the latest quarter ran +18.4% year on year. The net margin on that revenue is 21.6% this quarter (+3.9 pp YoY) — growth with a widening 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 Prudent Corporate Advisory Services 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.
We do not hold a clean annual return-on-equity series for Prudent Corporate Advisory Services 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 3.0% 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 3.1 points of Prudent Corporate Advisory Services Ltd over 8 quarters, the biggest move on the register. That takes promoters to 55.3% of the company. Domestic institutions moved +1.7 points over the same window, to 23.9%. The register is read on the four disclosed classes only; nothing is inferred between filings.
The register over the last two years — Promoters: −3.1 points over 8 quarters to 55.3%; Domestic institutions: +1.7 points over 8 quarters to 23.9%; Foreign institutions: +1.4 points over 8 quarters to 14.3%.
🚨 Why the register moved: promoters drove it (−3.1 points), absorbed on the other side by domestic institutions (+1.7 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.
Prudent Corporate Advisory Services 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.

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.

Is Prudent Corporate Advisory Services Ltd's loan book healthy?
We do not hold quarterly loan-book quality numbers for Prudent Corporate Advisory Services Ltd, so this page says that plainly. The cleanest available reads are revenue growth (+18.4% in FY26) and the net margin on it (21.6%) — as of 31 July 2026.
Where is Prudent Corporate Advisory Services Ltd in its business cycle?
Prudent Corporate Advisory Services Ltd's FY26 net margin was 16.6%, against a 8-year band of 9.3%–19.0%: mid-band by its own history — neither the peak that precedes mean-reversion nor the trough that precedes recovery. The latest quarter ran 21.6%. 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 Prudent Corporate Advisory Services Ltd story?
The sharpest disagreement: Promoters moved −3.1 points over 8 quarters while the operating story went the other way — someone close to the numbers is not convinced. 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 Prudent Corporate Advisory Services Ltd a stock worth studying right now?
This is not investment advice. The machine read: Prudent Corporate Advisory Services Ltd's three tracks disagree. Price, valuation and the earnings engine each tell a different story — the next quarter or two settles it. The sharpest open question: whether the register turns back in the story’s favour. Every number on this page is drawn deterministically from the raw series, with no forecasts and no price opinions — as of 31 July 2026.
