📅 Earnings Guide

What Is the Earnings Page?

The Earnings page at /earnings/ consolidates everything related to quarterly results and corporate events into one place. Five tabs cover the full earnings lifecycle — from knowing when a company will report, to reviewing what it actually reported, to seeing how entire sectors are trending, to tracking upcoming dividends and bonuses.

The page loads with the Results Calendar tab active. All other tabs load their data lazily on first click.

📅 Tab 1 — Results Calendar

The Results Calendar shows upcoming board meeting dates sourced from official NSE board-meeting-intimation filings. When a company files a notice that its board will meet to consider quarterly results, it appears here with the meeting date and stated purpose.

Filters

Four market cap chips narrow the calendar:

• All — every NSE-listed company with a filed upcoming date
• Large Cap — ₹20,000 Cr+ market cap companies
• Mid Cap — ₹5,000–20,000 Cr
• Small Cap — below ₹5,000 Cr

List View vs Calendar View

Toggle between two layouts using the ☰ List / ⬛ Calendar buttons at the top right:

• List View (default) — events grouped by date. The date label shows a count of companies reporting that day. Today and Tomorrow badges mark near-term events. Each row shows Symbol, Company, Quarter label, MCap, Sector, and the board meeting purpose.
• Calendar View — 7-column grid layout (Mon–Sun). Each date cell shows up to 3 symbols as green chips. Cells with more than 3 results show a "+N more" note. Today's date is highlighted with a green border. Useful for seeing how dense a reporting week is at a glance.

What Each Row Shows

📊 Tab 2 — Recent Results

Recent Results shows quarterly P&L data as cards — one card per company. It is the richest tab for interpreting how the current earnings season is playing out.

Sidebar Filters

A sticky sidebar on the left lets you refine the results list:

• Period (radio) — select from available quarters. The list is populated from the database and shows only quarters that have data. The most recent available quarter is selected by default.
• Market Cap (checkboxes) — filter to Large Cap (>₹20K Cr), Mid Cap, Small Cap, Micro Cap, or Nano Cap. You can select multiple tiers simultaneously.
• Sort By (radio) — choose how the card list is ordered:
  • Market Cap — largest companies first (default)
  • Sales YoY% — highest revenue growth first
  • OP YoY% — highest operating profit growth first
  • Net Profit YoY% — highest net profit growth first
  • Recently Updated — most recently added to the database first
• Sectors (checkboxes) — filter to one or more NSE sectors. Click "View more" to expand the full sector list.

Search Bar

The search box above the card list filters by company name or NSE symbol in real time. Use it to jump directly to a stock you are researching — for example, type "HDFC" to see all HDFC-group companies at once.

Reading a Results Card

Each card is structured in three parts:

Card Header: Company name (links to stock page), quarter badge (e.g. "Q4 FY26"), NSE symbol badge, and BSE code if available. Meta row shows MCap and reporting date. A sector tag is shown on the right.

Results Table: Three rows — Sales, Operating Profit, Net Profit — across four columns:

Each growth % is colour-coded: +18.4% green for positive and −6.2% red for negative. A growth figure near zero appears in neutral grey.

Card Footer: Two supplementary metrics — OPM% (Operating Profit Margin) for the current quarter, and EPS (Earnings Per Share). A "View Analysis" link opens the company's full stock page.

Best Sort Combinations

• Sales YoY% + Large Cap — find the top-line growth leaders among marquee names
• Net Profit YoY% + all MCap tiers — surface highest PAT growth regardless of size (includes mid-small compounders)
• OP YoY% + a specific sector — identify which companies in a sector are expanding margins fastest
• Recently Updated — useful during active reporting season to see the freshest additions to the database

✅ Tab 3 — Published Results

Published Results provides a date-range query over the results database. Instead of cards, you get a compact table showing every company that filed results in the selected window — useful for reviewing a specific reporting season end-to-end.

How to Use

1. Set the From and To dates using the date pickers. The default opens with the last 30 days.
2. Click Load. The table populates with all companies that reported in that window.
3. The count above the table shows how many companies matched.

Table Columns

🏭 Tab 4 — By Industry

The By Industry tab aggregates earnings data at the NSE sector level. It answers the question: "Which sectors are delivering the best earnings season right now?"

Table Columns

The table is based on trailing 12-month / annual financials (not the most recent single quarter). The "Updated" timestamp at the bottom of the table shows when the data was last refreshed.

How to Use By Industry

• Find the top earnings sectors — sort mentally by Avg Rev Growth and Avg EPS Growth to spot which sectors are in a growth cycle
• Compare OPM% across sectors — high OPM% with rising Avg Rev Growth often signals pricing power, not just volume
• Check % Profitable — a sector where fewer than 50% of companies are profitable is structurally challenged; tread carefully
• Click through to the Screener — once you identify an interesting sector, click its name to jump to /screen/ pre-filtered for that sector and apply additional filters (MCap, RS, etc.)

📋 Tab 5 — Corporate Actions

The Corporate Actions tab lists upcoming and recent ex-dates — the dates from which a corporate benefit (dividend, bonus shares, etc.) applies. You must hold shares before the ex-date to be eligible.

Action Types

Filter chips narrow the list to a single action type:

Lookback Window

Three day chips control how far back (and forward) the list extends: 30 Days / 60 Days / 90 Days. Changing the window triggers a fresh API call. Use 90 days at the start of a quarter to see the full upcoming dividend season for income planning.

Reading Each Row

Each entry shows: Ex-Date (formatted date) · Symbol (links to stock page) · Company Name · Type Badge (colour-coded) · Details — the specifics of the action, for example "₹3.50 per share" for a dividend or "1:1" for a bonus issue.

Practical Workflows

Workflow 1 — Pre-Season Calendar Review

At the start of each results season (April for Q4, July for Q1, October for Q2, January for Q3):

1. Open the Results Calendar tab, select Large Cap
2. Switch to Calendar View to see the reporting density week by week
3. Identify the two or three weeks when most large caps report — this is when market volatility typically spikes
4. Plan your position entries and exits around this calendar to avoid being caught by surprise on stocks you hold

Workflow 2 — Earnings Season Scan

During active reporting season:

1. Open Recent Results, sort by Net Profit YoY%
2. Scan the top 20–30 cards for companies beating expectations strongly
3. Filter to Mid Cap + Small Cap separately — outsized earners here often get overlooked by mainstream coverage
4. For any standout card, click the symbol to open the stock page and check the momentum and valuation context

Workflow 3 — Sector Earnings Heat Check

1. Open the By Industry tab
2. Identify two or three sectors with Avg Rev Growth >15% and Avg EPS Growth >15%
3. Click the sector name to jump to the Screener pre-filtered for that sector
4. On the Screener, add a RS Rating >70 filter to find the price leaders within the fundamentally strongest sector

Workflow 4 — Dividend Income Planning

1. Open Corporate Actions, select the Dividend type chip
2. Switch to 90 Days to see the full upcoming dividend calendar
3. Note the ex-dates for dividend stocks you are interested in and ensure you are positioned at least one trading day before
4. Cross-check the dividend details (₹ per share) against the current price to compute the yield for the quarter

Data Source & Update Schedule

All earnings data originates from official NSE/BSE filings — board meeting intimations for the calendar, and quarterly P&L filings for the results tabs. The database is updated continuously as companies file with the exchanges. During peak season (April–May, July–August, October–November, January–February), new results are typically added within 24 hours of filing.

Corporate Actions data (dividend, bonus, split, rights, buyback) is sourced from NSE corporate action announcements. Ex-dates are generally confirmed 3–5 business days before the event.
