💼 Coforge Ltd: High Altitude, Thin Margins — Is This IT Bird Still Flying?


🔍 At a Glance

Coforge has done a full Dhoni-style reinvention — from NIIT Tech’s humble days to a PE of 73x, all while waving goodbye to its original promoter (NIIT Ltd) and onboarding big boys like Hulst BV, only for them to ghost us in 2023. Revenues have tripled in 5 years. Net profits? Doubled. So, where’s the catch? Hint: margins, debt, and valuation.
