Finding fundamentally strong stocks involves crucial financial metrics. Begin with a market cap exceeding ₹1,000 crore. Verify consistent 5 year sales and EPS CAGR above 20%. A low debt-to-equity ratio, specifically under 0.5, indicates sound financial health. Also, check for a CFO/PAT ratio above 1 to confirm cash backed profits and ROE greater than 20% for efficient capital utilisation.
