Here is a free stock analysis spreadsheet that can automatically process balance sheet data from screener.in. This is the 12th edition of the freefincal automated stock analyzer.
The previous versions used MorningStar.in financial data. However, since I received requests to make a spreadsheet that can process screener.in data, I thought I will give it a try. I would say that about 80% of the features of past versions can be found here.
pulls financials from screener.in excel files (to be downloaded by the user)
pulls adjusted stock price history from money control, and
calculates intrinsic value six different ways!
Previous editions which pulled financials from Morningstar and annual (standalone/consolidated) and quarterly financials from Value Research online are also available (use links below).
Valuation models available:
1) Price Multiple Model
2) Sustainable Growth Rate
3) Book Value Growth Rate (Buffett’s approach to valuation)
4) Discounted Cash Flow (DCF): Not yet available as free cash flow data is missing in screener.in
5) Reverse DCF Valuation : Not yet available, same reason above. Get it from the morninstar edition.
6) Graham formula and Graham number
7) Piotroski Score for the last 9 financial years
8) Earnings Growth Estimate.
9) Automated Return on Equity Analysis with the Dupont Formula
The “read me first” sheet
Instructions
Get an account from screener.in
Choose a stock and download the balance sheet data using the “export to excel” option on the top right of the stock page.
Open both the analysis spreadsheet and the screener file.
Go to the screener-inputs page and follow the instructions (run a couple of macros).
Instructions for using screener
CAUTION: Screener has the ability to upload custom modified templates so that the next time you download the balance sheet data of another stock, the formulae would be intact.
DO NOT TRY TO UPLOAD THIS SPREADSHEET BACK INTO SCREENER
This has macros and hopefully, their server will reject it seeing the file extension.
I shall release a macro-free template which can be uploaded in a day or two. This will not have any macros and stock price history from moneycontrol will not be available.

Note: In a huge project like this, bugs are common. Please let me know about them and I will sort it out.
Please check the logic and formula adopted before using the sheet.

Sir, how do we add a new stock to the old Morningstar spreadsheet. I was trying to analyze Thyrocare but the name doesnt come up in the company name
I followed your instructions and both the screener.in xl file and screener-inputs worksheet are open. I clicked on the 1st macro button and the correct stock name appears in step 4. Then I selected the stock in question and clicked on 2nd macro button. I was shown a run time error with ‘type mismatch’. When I debug, I’m taken to Microsoft Visual basic window, unable to proceed.
Hello, You do one one thing add a sheet or whatever way you like setup it such a manner that user will input “free cash flow ” manually and DCF & Reverse DCF Valuation gets calculated as per your coding .
I have re-uploaded twice. Can you please check if the name of the file that you have is the same as that in the curent link? I just checked and it seems to work okay for me.
1) is your file name freefincal-stock-analyzer-Aug-2016-scr-edition-v1a-1.xlsm 2) If no, please download the latest file. If yes, when you get the error, please click on debug and send the screenshot to freefincal [at] gmail [dot] com.
There is a small mismatch of the file name downloaded and the file name in the macro which causing the run time error. Please make sure that the file available for download is named as freefincal-stock-analyzer-Aug-2016-scr-edition-v1a.xlsm, right now it has got an “-1” appended.
Hi Mr Pattabiraman, Tried using freefincal-stock-analyzer-Aug-2016-scr-edition-v1b.xlsm. I followed the steps listed in the sheet ‘Moneycontrol’. After having pasted the url post search in moneycontrol for monthly price data, I am not able to upload moneycontrol data. When pressed ‘Get Data’, it still opened debug screen.
Initiall when I enable micros, it gives a security warning and when I say enable content it gives an error “Not all data refreshed” false_9 // do you want to refresh all ?
if I say Ok it gets hung forever and when I press cancel and comeback to excel and point the screener file and click on third button it throws an error
Yes, this is a problem. I will try and resolve this. In the meantime, just enable macros and not data connections or do not refresh it and it will work fine. You can also disable refresh on start from data menu.
1) In Datasheet tab, It calculate value 0.0000009 for field ” Adjusted Equity Shares in Cr ” and then all the other formulas shows other that depend on this field. – I tried for 3-4 different stock. 2) Also in Graph tab for field “Projection from Log(EPS) fit” it always shows #VALUE! tried to correct it but did not understand much. 3) When we download data from moneycontrol, few rows shows date format different. Like row number 11 has date 13-01-2017 format where as from row 12 to 20 have date 12/1/2017 format. After every 15 rows with date 13-01-2017 format I can see 7 rows with date 12/1/2017 format.
The ‘ Freefincal-stock-analyzer-Jun-2016’ V.11 not working since last 3/4 days. The money control price data page is coming blank and also Graham current market price is not updating. Is it because Monycontrol portal recently changed ?
Hi, I am using the stock analyzer Mar 2017 version. I am trying to analyze Chennai Petroleum stock. When I click on step 5 in screener input sheet getting run time error 13. Kindly guide

Moneycontrol has changed its web layout. So any sheet that downloads stock or index prices will need a modification the VBA code. You can do this yourself. Open the VBA code and search for
.WebTables = “4” Then change the 4 to a 3. So that line should look like

Moneycontrol has changed its web layout. So any sheet that downloads stock or index prices will need a modification the VBA code. You can do this yourself. Open the VBA code and search for
.WebTables = “4” Then change the 4 to a 3. So that line should look like
.WebTables = “3”
That is it! It should work right now.
