HDFC BANK LTD clears only 1 of 3 checks. The numbers flag real concerns — exactly the kind of thing that gets lost in exciting news or social-media buzz. Tread carefully.
The four quality checks
Every company faces the same four checks. Tap the ? on any term to learn what it means.
Is the company drowning in loans?
Banks and lenders borrow money as their actual business, so we judge them on a relaxed scale built for financials.
The company keeps its borrowing under control. That's a sign of a sturdy balance sheet.
Does it make good money, consistently?
We look at how much profit the company squeezes out of its owners' money, averaged over three years — not just one lucky quarter.
Profitability is decent but not quite at the level we'd call strong.
Is the big, smart money buying in?
Large professional investors (global funds and Indian mutual funds) do deep research before buying. We track whether they've been adding or trimming their stake.
Professional investors have been reducing their stake recently.
Is the price reasonable right now?
Even a great company can be a bad buy if it's overpriced. We compare today's price tag to how this company has typically been priced over the past five years.
We don't have enough reliable data to run this check yet, so we're leaving it open rather than guessing.
