Let’s pick Tata Motors for this super-easy guide and show you how to analyse stocks smarter than ever, like a Pro!

First things first, search for Tata Motors’ stock page on Tickertape and look at the price charts for a simple yet brief overview of the stocks’ growth.

If you are in for the short haul, you can look out for 1W growth, but if you are more of a long-ride person, you can go as far as five years’ growth in just a tap. That’s not all. With multiple ranges varying per week, month and year, you can look at the price chart however you want to determine how far the stock has come.

But if you are still unsure whether the growth rate is exciting enough for you to add that stock, you can check out Tata Motors’ Scorecard. With various metrics ranging from performance, and growth to valuation and profitability, it’s like a report card with rankings out of 10, which can help you see if the stock is doing great, good or average. The best part? Scorecards’ Entry Point! An indicator that tells you if the stock is overpriced or not and lets you know if this is the right time to add it to your Portfolio based on Fundamental and Technical analysis. All of this is driven by data, experts and our unique formulas! Going Pro is a plus here, as it can help make easy analysis even easier and unlock more Scorecard metrics

Almost convinced by the data, but do you want to dig even deeper and check out what’s going on with the stock yourself? That’s sorted! Head over to Financials. Heaven for investors who like to play with numbers! It goes without saying, Financials is like vitals but for stocks, they can tell you how healthy accompany is doing and let’s face it, if you don’t check on Financials, you are pretty much ignoring your stocks’ health altogether!

You did it! You know the income, the profit, the growth and what’s been going on in the past, but you wonder, what will you earn from this? What does the future of this stock look like? With Forecasts, you don’t have to worry about it all!
