MakeMyTrip Limited

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.

MakeMyTrip Limited trades at $63.2, losing momentum at the top and 1 weeks into that stage. That is +6.0% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 40% of a 52-week range of $36 to $103. On relative strength it has been ahead of the S&P 500 on a trailing-13-week view for 8 straight weeks.

Today the stock is losing momentum at the top — week 1 of stage 3. At $63.2 it trades +6.0% versus its 200-day average and sits at 40% of its 52-week range ($36–$103).

Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 10.1 years the stock moved +304% while the S&P 500 moved +263% — ahead of the index over the full window. Recent form: on a trailing-13-week view the stock has been ahead for 8 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 P/E is the price of $1 of annual profit: how many dollars the market pays for each dollar the company earns in a year.

MakeMyTrip Limited trades at 294.9× P/E, against too little history to rank. This places the multiple against the stock’s own record, and says nothing about what the business is worth.

Today's P/E of 294.9× is against too little history to rank. 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 annual EPS moved −56.6% against a −31.1% price move — the price outran earnings, pushing the multiple UP its own range.

The price move, decomposed: over 3y, of the +23.3%/yr price move, ~+15.8%/yr came from earnings growth and ~+7.5 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 unremarkable against its own past, so the story rests on the earnings line underneath it, not the multiple.

Stage: Turning around 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).

MakeMyTrip Limited reads as turning around on its fundamental arc. Turning around — profit growth swung from −65.2% at the trough to −50.0% off a 1-quarter-old trough. The read is built from 12 quarters across 3 curves, on partial evidence.

Why it matters: growth inflections are where re-ratings start — the curves say a turn is forming, so the question becomes whether the next quarters confirm it.

The return-on-capital curve is not shown — net worth is negative, so a return on capital is not a meaningful number in any basis. This is a distressed balance sheet, and the stage is read from the growth curves alone.

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

42.8/100 — rank 10 of 14 in Travel Services · 71% evidence confidence

MakeMyTrip Limited scores 42.8 out of 100 against the 14 companies it is compared with in Travel Services, ranking 10. Balanced evidence: keep at normal research priority and require another comparable period before raising conviction.

The four contributions add to the total exactly: 15.9 + 12.1 + 8.8 + 6 = 42.8. 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.

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

MakeMyTrip Limited reported $0.3 B of revenue in the Mar 26 quarter, +0.0% year on year. Over 4 years it has compounded at 36.5% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at $1.0 B. The last four reported quarters add to $1.1 B.

FY26 revenue came in at $1.0 B (+6.1% on the year), capping 4 years at 36.5% compound. The latest quarter (Mar 26) printed $0.3 B, +0.0% year on year.

Pace check: the last four quarters averaged +7.2% growth against the decade's 36.5% — the current year is running slower than its own long-run rate.

Acceleration check: trailing-twelve-month revenue grew +7.1% over the last 4 quarters against +16.0%/yr over the last 8 — rolling over; TTM profit −50.0% vs −51.2%/yr — stabilising.

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.

MakeMyTrip Limited's operating margin is 16.0% in the Mar 26 quarter, +4.0 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. That is the widest this company has ever printed on a full-year basis. Across 5 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged −10.0% to 14.4%. The current quarter is running above every full year in that window.

The latest quarter's operating margin is 16.0%, +4.0 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged −10.0%–14.4%, and FY26's 14.4% is the top of that band — a record year.

Why the margin moved: operating margin went +4.0 pp year on year while gross margin went +4.0 pp — the gain came mostly from the gross line: input costs and pricing.

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.

MakeMyTrip Limited earned $0.0 B of net profit in the Mar 26 quarter, −33.3% year on year. Full-year FY26 profit was $0.1 B. That is 8.0% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $0.0 B. 1 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making.

Mar 26 profit was $0.0 B, −33.3% year on year. On the full year, FY26 printed $0.1 B (−50.0%).

🚨 Why profit moved: revenue contributed +0.0% and the margin +4.0 pp — the quarter was margin-led: most of the profit growth came from keeping more of each sale.

Pace comparison, last four quarters: profit −50.0% vs revenue +7.2%. Profit is growing slower than sales — costs are eating the growth before it reaches the bottom line.

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 135% of MakeMyTrip Limited's reported profit arrived as operating cash — the cash follows the profit. In FY26 that was $0.2 B of operating cash against $0.1 B of profit. After null of capital spending, $0.2 B was left as free cash. Cash resolution here is annual, because quarterly cash statements are not published.

FY26: operating cash of $0.2 B against reported profit of $0.1 B, leaving free cash of $0.2 B after null of capital spending. Across the last 3 fiscal years the conversion rate is 135% of profit.

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

Why: conversion is measured cleanly, but the working-capital day-counts behind it sit below what we hold — the move is shown without inventing its driver.

Router verdict: the visible cash user is investment — the next section checks what the spending is buying.

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).

MakeMyTrip Limited does not report the debtor, inventory and payable day-counts a cash cycle is built from, so this section reads the investment side instead. Capital spending ran $0.0 B over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 0.0% of FY26 revenue a year.

Working-capital day-counts are not in our numbers for this stock, so this section reads the investment side — where the cash is being put to work.

On the investment side: capital spending of $0.0 B over the last 3 fiscal years.

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

Return on equity Return on equity (ROE) is the profit the business earns on its shareholders’ money. With the full capital-employed split not in our numbers, ROE is the cleanest long ladder we can draw here.

MakeMyTrip Limited earns a ROE of −83% in FY26. Return on invested capital clears the cost of that capital by −2.0 percentage points, so growth here is not yet paying for the capital it uses. The wiring behind it is 4.8% net margin on 0.59× asset turns.

FY26 ROE is −83%.

🚨 Why the return is what it is — the wiring (FY26): 4.8% net margin × 0.59× asset turns × −29.17× balance-sheet leverage ≈ −82.6% on equity. Margin does its share; leverage is modest — this is an earned return, not a borrowed one.

The capstone test — ROIC − WACC: 6.8% − 8.8% = a −2.0 pp spread. The 8.8% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital — read the sign and the size of the spread, not the decimals. Negative — growth at these returns destroys value until the returns recover.

Dividend

MakeMyTrip Limited pays no dividend. Across the last 12 reported quarters it has declared no dividend per share, so there is no payout history to chart and no yield to quote. Companies at this stage typically reinvest earnings rather than distribute them, which makes the cash-flow and reinvestment sections the place that cash shows up.

MakeMyTrip Limited does not currently pay a dividend. Across the last 12 reported quarters the company has declared no dividend per share, so there is no payout history to chart and no yield to quote. Companies at this stage typically reinvest earnings instead of distributing them.

Debt Debt-to-equity says how much of the business is funded by borrowings. Low is the safe corner; the trend matters as much as the level.

MakeMyTrip Limited's net worth is negative — it owes more than it owns — so a debt-to-equity ratio is not meaningful here. On the annual view that ratio went from 0.24 in FY22 to −23.50 in FY26. The returns elsewhere on this page are therefore earned rather than borrowed.

Mar 26: total debt of $1.4 B against shareholder equity of $−0.1 B — a debt-to-equity of −23.50. On the annual view, debt-to-equity went from 0.24 (FY22) to −23.50 (FY26). The returns on this page are earned, not borrowed.

Ownership There is no quarter-by-quarter holder register to read here, so we read the crowd through short interest — the slice of tradable shares currently sold short, positioned for a fall.

No ownership or positioning reading is held for MakeMyTrip Limited, so this section names the gap rather than filling it. At typical trading volumes those positions would take about 7.3 days to buy back. There is no quarter-by-quarter holder register to read for this filer, so the crowd is read through short interest instead.

We hold no ownership or positioning reading for this stock, so this section says that plainly.

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.

MakeMyTrip Limited: the Z-score reads 1.40. A Z-score above roughly 3 reads as safe and below roughly 1.8 as the distress zone, so this sits inside the distress zone. It is a distance-to-distress estimate from the balance sheet, not a forecast of failure.

🚨 Why it matters: a Z-score of 1.40 is inside the distress zone — the balance sheet is a real risk, not a detail.

The safety line in one sentence: the Z-score reads 1.40.
