Here's What Analysts Are Forecasting For Tanla Platforms Limited (NSE:TANLA) After Its Full-Year Results
It's been a good week for Tanla Platforms Limited (NSE:TANLA) shareholders, because the company has just released its latest yearly results, and the shares gained 8.2% to ₹676.

Earnings are an important time for investors, as they can track a company's performance, look at what the analysts are forecasting for next year, and see if there's been a change in sentiment towards the company.

After the latest results, the twin analysts covering Tanla Platforms are now predicting revenues of ₹40.0b in 2024. If met, this would reflect a notable 19% improvement in sales compared to the last 12 months. Per-share earnings are expected to soar 24% to ₹40.90. In the lead-up to this report, the analysts had been modelling revenues of ₹40.0b and earnings per share (EPS) of ₹40.90 in 2024. The consensus analysts don't seem to have seen anything in these results that would have changed their view on the business, given there's been no major change to their estimates.
It will come as no surprise then, to learn that the consensus price target is largely unchanged at ₹738.
Looking at the bigger picture now, one of the ways we can make sense of these forecasts is to see how they measure up against both past performance and industry growth estimates. We would highlight that Tanla Platforms' revenue growth is expected to slow, with the forecast 19% annualised growth rate until the end of 2024 being well below the historical 29% p.a. growth over the last five years. Juxtapose this against the other companies in the industry with analyst coverage, which are forecast to grow their revenues (in aggregate) 14% per year. So it's pretty clear that, while Tanla Platforms' revenue growth is expected to slow, it's still expected to grow faster than the industry itself.
The Bottom Line
The most obvious conclusion is that there's been no major change in the business' prospects in recent times, with the analysts holding their earnings forecasts steady, in line with previous estimates. Happily, there were no major changes to revenue forecasts, with the business still expected to grow faster than the wider industry. There was no real change to the consensus price target, suggesting that the intrinsic value of the business has not undergone any major changes with the latest estimates.
Following on from that line of thought, we think that the long-term prospects of the business are much more relevant than next year's earnings. At least one analyst has provided forecasts out to 2025, which can be seen for free on our platform here.
