for past 3 years EPS for ICRA was

9.19 13.95 16.10

and this year i expect them to do an EPS of 23 or more(25 is wat they should do)...
 
but credit ratings, IPO ratings and framework for ASEL 2 is catching up now....so it will be next 2-3 years which will see sudden spurt in earnings....and ICRA is signing MoUs with a lot of banks....it is doing credit ratings for other financial institutions also....

Investment in ICRA looks like a bank FD that pays 30% interest.

If one goes by the Peter Lynch rules, then he says "Avoid investing in the "next Microsoft, next Google",etc.....So better change the title of this thread Wink

I think after the Sub-prime mess in US, investors are not liking the rating agencies anymore.

You may be right. Especially in the West, sentiment is pretty low about rating agencies. Moody's (Buffett's holding) is down-in-the-dumps.
 
Still the business model is attractive.

Argument seems very strong can you elaborate by any detailed study/articles on this.You are correct if rating agencies had been good lending problems would have been restricted.
