Derived from reported annual statements. ROCE uses EBIT over capital employed (total assets less current liabilities). Day counts average the opening and closing balance; receivables turn on revenue, inventory and payables on cost of goods sold.
Bulk deals are a client trading over 0.5% of the equity in a session, aggregated across their trades; block deals are single negotiated trades in the exchange’s block window. Each is reported by the exchange it was crossed on, so NSE and BSE rows are separate trades rather than the same trade twice.
