Financial Results and Revenue Trends
Capital Trust’s financial results have reflected a challenging environment. The company reported a net sales figure of Rs.8.62 crore in the most recent quarter, which is the lowest recorded in recent periods. This represents a decline of 65.38% compared to previous quarters. Operating profit has also shown a significant contraction, with a negative growth rate of 180.11% annually, signalling a substantial reduction in earnings from core operations.
The company has declared negative results for two consecutive quarters, with the latest quarter’s profit after tax (PAT) at Rs.-17.88 crore, reflecting a fall of 7,873.9%. Operating cash flow for the year stands at Rs.-19.35 crore, marking the lowest level in recent years. These figures underscore the financial strain the company is experiencing.
Valuation and Return Metrics
Capital Trust’s return on equity (ROE) is reported at -43.6%, indicating that the company is currently generating losses relative to shareholder equity. The stock’s price-to-book value ratio is approximately 0.8, suggesting that the market valuation is below the book value of the company’s net assets. This valuation is comparatively lower than the average historical valuations of its peers in the NBFC sector.
Profitability metrics have also been under pressure, with profits falling by 1,334.6% over the past year. The stock’s performance relative to the BSE Small Cap index, which gained 0.05% today, further highlights its underperformance within the broader market context.
Sector and Market Position
Capital Trust operates within the NBFC sector, which has seen mixed performance in recent months. While some small-cap stocks have shown resilience and modest gains, Capital Trust’s share price trajectory has remained subdued. The company’s market capitalisation grade is rated at 4, reflecting its relatively modest size within the sector.

Summary of Recent Performance Indicators
Capital Trust’s recent financial disclosures and stock price movements illustrate a company facing significant headwinds. The stock’s position below all major moving averages signals persistent downward pressure. The sharp decline in net sales and operating profit, coupled with negative quarterly earnings and operating cash flow, reflect the challenges in maintaining growth and profitability.
Despite the broader market’s relative strength, with the Sensex trading near its 52-week high and small-cap indices showing modest gains, Capital Trust’s stock remains under pressure. The valuation metrics suggest the market is pricing in the company’s current difficulties, with the price-to-book ratio below one and a negative return on equity.
Investors and market participants will continue to monitor the company’s financial disclosures and market developments closely as Capital Trust navigates this period of subdued performance.
