The Attractive Index

The India Value Buy score helps spot stressed but valuable companies — ideal for turnarounds, acquisitions, or value investing. Each company gets a score out of 100 based on these 5 factors:

Parameter	Rationale	Scoring
Debt to Equity (Max 25)	High debt may mean stress — attractive for acquirers.	≥ 20 → 25 ≥ 10 → 15 ≥ 5 → 10 < 5 → 0
Profit Margin (Max 15)	A stressed company must still be making some money.	≥ 20% → 15 ≥ 10% → 10 ≥ 5% → 5 < 5% → 0
P/E Ratio (Max 25)	Low valuation may mean market overreaction.	≤ 10 → 25 ≤ 15 → 15 ≤ 20 → 5 > 20 → 0
Promoter Holding (Max 20)	High holding implies promoter confidence.	≥ 70% → 20 ≥ 50% → 15 ≥ 30% → 10 < 30% → 0
Revenue (Max 15)	We prefer big companies with problems — not small ones.	≥ ₹1,00,000 Cr → 15 ≥ ₹50,000 Cr → 10 ≥ ₹10,000 Cr → 5 < ₹10,000 Cr → 0
