Each bar is one week, from 2023 to now (152 weeks with a reading). Green means the stock's return over the previous 13 weeks beat the NIFTY 500; red means it trailed. The colour is strongest at a gap of 25 percentage points or more. A gap means there is no reading for that week.

Over the last 3.1 years the share price moved −31% while the NIFTY 500 moved +26%, so it is behind the index over that whole period. The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week.

Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +8.9% on average, against 14.2% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing slower than its own long-run rate.

Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +8.9%, against +8.9% a year over the last 8 quarters (stabilising); profit over the last 12 months grew −15.8%, against −1.5% a year (rolling over).

How much of every ₹100 of sales does Updater Services keep?

Updater Services Ltd's operating margin was 5.0% in the Sep 2026 quarter, 0.7 percentage points higher than the same quarter a year ago. Across 7 years it has been between 4.4% and 6.0%. The latest quarter is within that range.

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

Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +1.0 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.

Is Updater Services' profit turning into cash?

Over the last 3 years, 111% of Updater Services Ltd's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY26 it brought in ₹144 Cr of operating cash against ₹83.0 Cr of profit. After ₹31.0 Cr of spending on assets, ₹113 Cr was left over as free cash.

The profit and loss account shows what was earned. The cash-flow statement shows the cash that actually came in. Comparing operating cash flow with profit is one of the best checks that a profit is real.

Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year.

Operating cash as a share of net profit, each year, % (line). The flat line marks 100%, meaning all of the profit came in as cash; unusual years are drawn at the edge.

Why 111% of profit came in as cash: the cash cycle stayed about the same between FY21 and FY26, so the cash follows profit, not the cycle.

What to look at next: no single use of cash stands out. The next section checks both the cash tied up in daily operations and the spending on assets.

Where does Updater Services' cash go?

Updater Services Ltd's cash cycle, the days between paying suppliers and getting paid by customers, was 75 days in FY26, down from 81 days in FY21. It spent ₹131 Cr on assets over the last 3 years.

Working capital is the cash tied up between paying suppliers and getting paid. Debtor days: how long customers take to pay. Inventory days: how long stock sits. The cash cycle: the whole loop, in days of sales.

At FY26 sales of ₹2,940 Cr, each day of that cycle ties up about ₹8.1 Cr, so roughly ₹604 Cr is tied up in the business at any time.

Debtor days, inventory days, payable days and the full cash cycle, each year. 7-year window.

Spending on assets: ₹131 Cr over the last 3 years, against ₹148 Cr of depreciation (the yearly wear and tear on existing assets). So it is spending about what it takes to replace what wears out, or less. Work still in progress is ₹0.0 Cr (FY26): assets paid for that are not earning yet.

In short: neither the daily cycle nor new spending is soaking up the cash, so the picture is fairly clean.

What is Updater Services' P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history?

Updater Services Ltd's P/E is 12.7×, near the low end of its own history: it has been lower only 23% of the time. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 17.4×, over 3.1 years of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth.

P/E is the share price divided by a year's profit per share: how many rupees the market pays for each rupee of yearly profit.

The P/E here, and its history, use a profit figure that can leave out one-off items, so it can differ from a P/E worked out on the quarterly results. Those results' earnings per share for the four quarters to Sep 2026 add up to ₹14.82.

PEG each quarter: the P/E divided by the yearly growth rate of earnings. The flat line marks 1.0. Below it the P/E is smaller than the growth rate; above it the P/E is bigger. Last 12 quarters; values above 6 are drawn at the top edge.
12.7×P/E · lower than 77% of its last 3.1 years
1.00PEG · today, derived from 3-year earnings growth

Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved −27.8% while the price moved −16.8%. The price did better than earnings, which pushed the multiple up within its own range.

Where the price move came from: over 3 years the price moved −9.1% a year; about +42.3% a year came from earnings growth and about −51.4 percentage points from the multiple (the market paying less). 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 low against its own past, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple.

Is the Updater Services business getting better or worse?

Updater Services Ltd's business is giving mixed signals. There is no clear direction across the growth lines, with ROCE steady at 9.6%; each line tells part of the story. This is based on 12 quarters of 3 measures, with some gaps.

Every business is somewhere on a path of getting better or worse, and this section names where. The last 12 quarters of growth in revenue, profit and earnings per share, plus the return the business earns on its capital, are read as lines. Getting worse: the lines are falling. Turning around: a low point has just formed and the last few quarters are rising from it. Getting better: the rise from the low has lasted. Growing steadily: steady growth with healthy returns. Slowing from a peak: still high, but slowing. When the lines disagree the result is mixed; too little history means no reading. CAGR (compound annual growth rate) is the steady yearly rate that would turn the starting value into the latest one. It is the fairest way to compare growth over different periods. If the 1-year figure is much bigger than the 10-year one, recent growth is running faster than the long-run trend. A dash means there is no figure for that period, or the starting year was a loss, where a growth rate means nothing.

How much does Updater Services earn on its capital?

Updater Services Ltd earned a ROCE of 10% in FY26. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 0.3 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a 2.8% net margin and 1.80× asset turnover (sales divided by assets).

Return on capital employed (ROCE) is the profit the whole business earns on all the money in it, from shareholders and lenders together. It is the best single test of whether growth adds value or just size.

Why the return is what it is (FY26): a 2.8% net margin × 1.80× asset turnover × 1.55× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 7.8% on equity. The margin does its share; 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% = −0.3 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 10.0%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method.

Does Updater Services have too much debt?

Updater Services Ltd has total debt of ₹41.0 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹1,111 Cr as of Sep 2026, so its debt is 0.04× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.57 in FY23 to 0.04 in FY26. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money.

Debt-to-equity shows how much of the business is paid for with borrowed money. Lower is safer, and the direction matters as much as the level.

What is the Updater Services shareholding pattern?

Domestic institutions cut their stake in Updater Services Ltd by 5.9 percentage points over 8 quarters, the biggest change among its owners. Domestic institutions now own 9.3% of the company. Foreign institutions moved −2.1 points over the same period, to 1.4%. This uses the four owner groups that companies report every quarter; nothing is guessed between filings.

Over the last two years: Domestic institutions: −5.9 points over 8 quarters, to 9.3%; Foreign institutions: −2.1 points over 8 quarters, to 1.4%; Promoters: +0.3 points over 8 quarters, to 59.1%.

Why the owners changed: domestic institutions drove it (−5.9 points), together with foreign institutions (−2.1 points). They reduced their stake.

How far is Updater Services from balance-sheet trouble?

For Updater Services 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.

The Z-score estimates how far a company is from balance-sheet trouble. Above about 3 is safe; below about 1.8 is the danger zone. It was built for manufacturers, so it is not used for banks and lenders.

How does Updater Services rank in its industry?

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.
